00:00Here are a few of my additional comments regarding the question of whether or not Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche should release a transcript of the questions he asked of Jelaine Maxwell and the answers that she gave in his two-day interview of Ms. Maxwell.
00:22I believe that he should release the entire transcript of his more than nine-hour interview with her, including all of his questions and all of her answers.
00:34I'm aware that Jelaine Maxwell, in addition to the other crimes for which she has been convicted, was also indicted on two counts of perjury.
00:45Ultimately, those charges were dismissed.
00:47However, the charges cannot be ignored and other lies that she has told do have an impact on her credibility and are part of the reason that some victims and their lawyers think that she should never have been interviewed.
01:05They do not believe whatever her responses were to the questions asked by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.
01:11In my opinion, if the transcripts were released, then everything that Ms. Maxwell said in the interview should only be released if they are accompanied by corroboration of her statements and or evidence of inconsistent statements by her and or proof that she lied about some of her statements, if she did.
01:35In reference to the planned upcoming hearings in the fall by the House Committee, I do believe that there should be a joint hearing by the House Committees and the Senate Committee.
01:47I'm aware that the House Subcommittee is issuing subpoenas for many people in the list that they've already developed, including many former Attorney Generals.
01:57I think that they should add to that list former United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Alex Acosta.
02:06In addition, I think they should subpoena Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche and Attorney General Pam Bondi.
02:12Finally, victims and survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and or Jolene Maxwell should be invited to appear before the House and Senate Committees to share how they were victimized by Jeffrey Epstein and Ms. Maxwell,
02:30the impact on them of these crimes, and how the criminal justice system has helped them or failed them.
02:37In addition, victims should not be subpoenaed or compelled in any way to testify, but they should be invited.
02:45Some may wish to testify, but they should be invited and not compelled.
02:51And some may want to be anonymous, that is, they would not want their identities known or their faces shown.
03:03They should be supported in their request, if that is the wish.
03:08We need change and new laws to be passed by Congress to better protect victims from the sexual predators.
03:16I look forward to sharing my ideas on this subject in the coming days.
03:21So finally, in a few moments I'll take some questions.
03:26Alicia will not be taking any questions, but we want to show you this.
03:33In the report, we should also have copies.
03:35Okay, so this, this is her place, you can tell me, and I provided you copies of that.
04:01Okay.
04:02She is the redacted name, and the...
04:12Yeah, here.
04:13So, yeah.
04:16This is the 1987 Santa Monica Police Department crime report
04:21accusing Jeffrey Epstein of sexual battery of Alicia Arden.
04:26The redactions are made, were made by, not by us, but this is the way we received the police report.
04:39Previously, I have asked for an unredacted copy, but I have not ever received it.
04:48Well, I'm going to try again.
04:50So, but you have that.
04:53Okay.
04:55And that's it.
04:58And I'll leave this here if you want to take a look at it afterwards.
05:04Okay.
05:07I'll come back and sit down.
05:08I guess you'll be like...
05:09Okay.
05:11Okay.
05:11Can I take a look at it?
05:24Thanks.
05:25Bye.
05:26Bye.
05:27Bye.
05:30Bye.
05:31Bye.
05:33Bye.
05:33Bye.
05:36Andy.
05:36Bye.
05:37Bye.
05:37Bye.
05:37Bye.
05:38Bye.
05:39Bye.
