COMPLAINT Plaintiff, JANE DOE (B.B.), brings this Complaint against Defendants, JEFFREY EPSTEIN an and states as follows: Parties, Jurisdiction and Venue I. B.B. brings this Complaint under a fictitious name to protect her identity, because the Complaint makes sensitive allegations of sexual assault and abuse that she suffered while a minor. 2. B.B. is a citizen and resident of the State of Florida. She is currently over the age of 18 and otherwise sui furls. 3. Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, is currently incarcerated in Palm Beach County, is a citizen and resident of Palm Beach County, Florida, has full intent to stay in Palm Beach County after his incarceration and is otherwise sui furls. 4. Defendant, is a citizen and resident of the State of New York and otherwise sui furls. EFTA00189979 5. This is an action for damages in excess of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000), exclusive of interest and costs. 6. Venue is proper in this Court under section 47.011, Florida Statutes, because the causes of action brought herein accrued in Palm Beach County, Florida, and one or more Defendants reside in Palm Beach County, Florida. Factual Allegations 7. At all relevant times, Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, was an adult male. Mr. Epstein is a financier and money manager with a secret clientele limited exclusively to billionaires. He is a man of tremendous wealth, power and influence. Before confinement, he maintained homes in New York, New Mexico, St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Palm Beach, Florida. The allegations herein concern Mr. Epstein's conduct while at his lavish estate in Palm Beach. 8. Upon information and belief, Mr. Epstein has a sexual preference and obsession for minor girls. He engaged in a plan, scheme, and/or enterprise wherein he gained access to primarily economically disadvantaged minor girls in his Palm Beach home and sexually assaulted the girls, or coerced or attempted to coerce the girls to engage in prostitution, and then gave them money. 9. In or about 2005, B.B., then 15 years old, fell victim to Mr. Epstein's trap described above, at Mr. Epstein's Palm Beach estate. 10. Upon information and belief, Mr. Epstein carried out this scheme/enterprise and assaulted girls in Florida, New York and on his private island, known as Little St. James, in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands. 11. Integral conspirators in Mr. Epstein's Florida scheme/enterprise were Defendant; an assistant of Mr. Epstein from New York City, New York; an4 a Page 2 of 9 EFTA00189980 Palm Beach Community College student from Loxahatchee, Florida; and other Jane Does. Ms. Ms...and other Jane Does recruited girls ostensibly to give a wealthy man a platonic massage for monetary compensation in his Palm Beach mansion. Under Mr. Epstein's plan/enterprise, Ms was contacted shortly before or soon after Mr. Epstein was at his Palm Beach residence. Mr. Epstein, or MM or someone on their behalf, directed Ms. and others to bring one or more underage girls to Mr. Epstein's residence. Upon information and belief, economically-disadvantaged, underage girls from Loxahatchee and surrounding areas were specifically targeted because they were easier to entice by the money being offered (generally $200 to $300 per "massage" session) and these girls were perceived as less likely to complain to authorities or have credibility if allegations of improper conduct were made. This was pivitol to Mr. Epstein's plan/enterprise. 12. Mr. Epstein's plan, scheme, and/or enterprise had a particular pattern and method. Upon arrival at Mr. Epstein's mansion, the underage girls would be introduced to Ms. who in turn gathered the victim's personal information, including her name and telephone number. The girls would then be brought up a flight of stairs to a bedroom that contained, among other furnishings, a massage table. Photographs of nude women lined the stairway hall and bedroom. Ms. would then leave the girl alone in this room, whereupon Mr. Epstein would enter wearing only a towel. Mr. Epstein would then remove his towel, lay down naked on the massage table, and direct the girl to remove her clothes. He then would perform one or more lewd, lascivious and sexual acts, including masturbation, touching the girl's vagina with a vibrator, or digitally penetrating the girl's vagina, and coerce or attempt to coerce the girl to engage in lewd acts and/or prostitution. Page 3 of 9 EFTA00189981 Facts Specific to B.B. 13. Consistent with the foregoing plan, scheme, and/or enterprise, B.B., then 15 years of age, was recruited to give Mr. Epstein a massage for monetary compensation. B.B. was brought by taxi with another girl 15 years of age to Mr. Epstein's mansion in Palm Beach. B.B. and the other girl were brought into the kitchen of the home and led up the flight of stairs to a large bathroom containing a massage table. Upon arriving in the bathroom, a young woman, on information and belief, Ms. xited a sauna wearing only a towel, placed a tube of lotion on the counter and stated, "I guess you will need this more than I will." 14. Several minutes later, Mr. Epstein came into the bathroom and shut the door behind him, told both girls to remove their clothes and undressed himself. Mr. Epstein then placed a small washcloth over his genitals and asked both girls to rub lotion on his naked body. At some point Mr. Epstein told the other 15 year old girl to leave the room, leaving B.B. alone with Mr. Epstein. Mr. Epstein then began to masturbate while B.B. was massaging him. 15. At this point, Mr. Epstein specifically asked B.B. her age, to which B.B. honestly advised she was 15 years old. 16. Mr. Epstein took his free hand and began to touch B.B. between her legs and in her genitals while simultaneously masturbating himself. B.B. told Mr. Epstein to stop, but he continued to rub B.B. between her legs in her genital area. Mr. Epstein then ejactulated and told B.B. she could get dressed. 17. B.B. was then allowed to get dressed, leave the room and go back down the stairs and into the kitchen. Mr. Epstein gave the other 15 year old girl money and told B.B. that this girl "had her money" and then left. B.B. was given $200 by the other 15 year old girl. Page 4 of 9 EFTA00189982 18. As a result of this encounter with Mr. Epstein, the 15 year old B.B. experienced confusion, shame, humiliation and embarrassment, and the assault sent her life into a downward spiral.
