I knew Ghislaine Maxwell casually as an acquaintance.

We had asked for that.
We think it would have been better for the committee and its efforts to gather whatever information they are seeking.
We had a bit of a challenge in the beginning because we agreed upon rules based on the fact it was going to be a closed hearing at their demand, and one of the members violated that rule, which was very upsetting because it suggested that they might violate other of our agreements.
I don't know how many times I had to say I did not know Jeffrey Epstein.
I never went to his island.
I never went to his homes.
I never went to his offices.
So it's on the record numerous times.
