questions are simply designed to have me invoke my Fifth Amendment Sixth Amendment and 14th Amendment Right in relation to other questions and other cases filed But in response to your question Im going to have to invoke my right not to testify Do you know the individual named L.M identified by the initials L.M A Mr Scarola at least today I would like to answer that question however today on

other than your own lawyer having known the individual identified by the initials L.M MR PIKE Form THE WI1NESS Again Id like to answer each and every one of your questions here today Mr Scarola however on advice of Counsel at least today Im going to have to refuse to answer Page that question BY MR SCAROLA Have you ever acknowledged to A Excuse me Bradley A Sir may I suggest that ifl say I refuse to answer that it means the Fifth Sixth and 14th or would you prefer that I recite it each time I would prefer that you answer the questions thats my preference But if youre going to assert a privilege I will assume that if you simply say that you are refusing to answer your refusal to answer will be on the basis of various Constitutional privileges against self-incrimination without the

objection THE WITNESS Again Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right BY MR SCAROLA Have you ever acknowledged in the presence of Steve Jaffe that you knew and or liked L.M A Again Mr Scarola though Id like to answer each and every one of your questions today Im going to have to at the advice of Counsel invoke my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right Why are you suing L.M MR PIKE Form MR SCAROLA Let me state for the record that I dont consider a form objection to be a proper objection unless you specify the defect in the PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Pages to Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page form and provide me with an opportunity to correct the defect MR PIKE Thats fine I believe the rules provide otherwise But nonetheless I stand on my objection to form THE WITNESS Im sorry You have to repeat the question BY MR SCAROLA Why are you suing L.M MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS L.M is part of a conspiracy with Scott Rothstein Bradley Edwards creating excuse me creating fraudulent cases of a sexually charged nature in which the U.S Attorney has already charged the firm of Rothstein a firm of which Bradley Edwards is a partner was a partner with creating fabricating malicious cases of a sexual nature including cases with respect to me specifically in order to fleece unsuspecting investors in South Florida out of millions of dollars BY MR SCAROLA What role do you contend L.M played in that conspiracy to create fraudulent cases A L.M.s testimony before she met Mr Edwards Page was dramatically sworn testimony to the FBI was dramatically different after she came in contact with Mr Bradley Edwards where her testimony then changed to sort of a hostile and had claims of claims never made before never made to anyone before and allegations that Ive read in her Complaint that that had been dramatically different from the ones she had spoken to the FBI about sir Is it your contention that L.M.s statement to the FBI was true MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Mr Scarola unfortunately today with respect to that question Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right Though I know I believe you know the answer to that question I cant answer the question under advice of Counsel And hes told me ifl chose to do so I risk losing his representation BYMR SCAROLA What is the basis of your belief that I know the answer to the question MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS You I believe you have seen this because youre supposed to be a decent Page lawyer youve read the testimony I would guess youve read the difference in her testimony to the FBI versus her testimony after shes met your client and his partners who are currently in jail BY MR SCAROLA How does that respond to my question as to whether you contend that her testimony to the FBI was true or false MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS I dont believe that was your question Will you repeat BY MR SCAROLA Okay Well lets let me rephrase the question then Is it your contention that L.M.s statement to the FBI was true A Sir on advice of Counsel at least today Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right Was L.M.s statement to the FBI false in any respect A Sir at least again today on advice of Counsel Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right Was L.M.s subsequent testimony after Page according to you she met Mr Edwards and changed her testimony true A Did she change her testimony Is that yes her testimony was changed My question to you is Was her testimony which you contend was changed true testimony A Your question is not a good question Is it her testimony before or after Was the subsequent testimony given by L.M after she met Mr Edwards which you contend was different from her testimony before the FBI was the subsequent testimony true or false MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Sir Im going at least today Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right BY MR SCAROLA Did you ever engage in any sexual conduct with L.M A I would like to answer that question but You dont need to tell me what youd like to do Mr Epstein You just need to do it please THE WITNESS Please MR PIKE Mr Scarola please let the witness finish his response Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page MR SCAROLA Thats not a response to my question MR PIKE In your mind it may not be a response In a Judges mind it may be We may have to certify it to the Court If such a procedure even exists we can take it up with the Court But please let the witness finish his response THE WITNESS Again please BY MR SCAROLA Did you engage ever engage in any sexual conduct with L.M A I would like to answer that question however today Im going to have to assert my rights as provided by the Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment to that question sir Have you ever exchanged anything of value with L.M MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS At least today Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right sir BY MR SCAROLA Did you ever direct anyone to deliver anything of value to L.M Page MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS At least today Im going to have to refuse to answer that question based on the Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment BY MR SCAROLA Do you know Carolyn Andriano A At least today sir Im going to have to refuse to testify about that question Based on advice of Counsel Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right Did Carolyn Andriano introduce you to L.M A Sir respectfully Id like to answer that question today As I said Id like to answer each and every one of your questions However on advice ofmy Counsel today Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right Did L.M suffer any damage as a consequence of any interaction between you and L.M MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Could you repeat the question please BY MR SCAROLA Did L.M suffer any damage as a consequence of any interaction between you and L.M MR PIKE Form Page THE WITNESS Id like to answer each and every one of your questions here today Mr Scarola however on advice of Counsel today Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right BY MR SCAROLA Your Complaint in this action alleges that L.M made claims for damages out of proportion to her alleged damages What does that mean A It means what it says I dont understand it Explain it to me MR PIKE To the extent you can answer that question without disclosing my conversations with you or Mr Crittons conversations with you as well as my work product you can answer the question THE WITNESS I believe that as part of the scheme to defraud investors in South Florida out of millions of dollars claims of outrageous sums of money were made on behalf of alleged victims across the board And the only way in fact Scott Rothstein sits in jail And what Ive read in the paper claims that Ive settled cases for 200-million which is totally not true She has made claims of serious sum of money Page which is outrageous BY MR SCAROLA How much have you settled claims for MR PIKE Im going to instruct you not to answer that question MR SCAROLA And the basis of that instruction is MR PIKE Confidential settlement agreements to the extent that they exist And the terms would be confidential BY MR SCAROLA Have you settled claims A Yes I have What is the nature of the claims you settled MR PIKE Im going to instruct you not to answer that question BY MR SCAROLA How many claims have you settled MR PIKE Im going to instruct you not to answer that question as well MR SCAROLA What is the basis for those instructions MR PIKE Confidential as well as there is a Victims Right Statute that may you may be tiptoeing into the identity of Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page MR SCAROLA Im not tiptoeing anywhere MR PIKE Let me finish my objection Mr Scarola You may be tiptoeing into the identity of various alleged victims underneath the Victims Right Statute as well as ongoing investigations or past investigations that have remained open with the State as well as the Federal Government So in that regard we would have to put the State Attorney as well as the Federal Government on notice that you were seeking to potentially back door certain identities at this deposition BY MR SCAROLA Other than having allegedly given different testimony before she met Mr Edwards then given after she met Mr Edwards did L.M do anything else that forms the basis for your claim against her MR PIKE Form Asked and answered THE WITNESS Id like to answer that question as well as every one of your questions with respect to L.M here today however on advice of Counsel at least today Mr Scarola Im going to have to assert my Sixth Amendment Fifth Amendment and 14th Amendment Right BY MR SCAROLA Page Did L.M fail to do anything that she had an obligation duty or responsibility to do MR PIKE Form BY MR SCAROLA that forms the basis for your claim against her MR PIKE I apologize Form THE WITNESS Again Im sorry Has she failed to do Can you repeat BY MR SCAROLA Yes sir Lawsuits are generally based civil lawsuits are generally based on a claim that someone has done something that they shouldnt have done or failed to do something that they should have done I asked you whether L.M did anything that she shouldnt have done and you asserted a Fifth Amendment privilege in refusing to answer that question Im now attempting to fmd out whether L.M failed to do something that she should have done that forms the basis of your claims against her Did L.M do anything that she should have done that forms the basis of your claims against her MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS On advice of Counsel at least today Mr Scarola Im going to have to refuse to Page answer that question based on my Fifth Amendment Sixth Amendment and 14th Amendment Right BY MR SCAROLA Did Brad Edwards do anything that he shouldnt have done that forms the basis of your lawsuit against him MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Yes many things BY MR SCAROLA List them for me please A He has he has gone to the media out of I believe in an attempt to gin up these allegations He has contacted the media He has used the media for his own purposes He has brought discovery he has engaged in discovery proceedings that bear no relationship to any case filed against me by any of his clients His firm which hes the partner of has been accused of forging a Federal Judges signature I want to know what Mr Edwards MR PIKE One second THE WITNESS Excuse me Im answering BY MR SCAROLA I want to know what Mr Edwards did Im not asking you about allegations concerning his law firm Page MR PIKE Mr Scarola thats the second time that Im going to ask you not to interrupt the witness when hes giving a response He is giving a response When he finishes his response you can go on with your next question or you can you can elicit any sort of information you intend to elicit from the witness MR SCAROLA Hes being unresponsive MR PIKE No thats your contention MR SCAROLA No thats a fact MR PIKE And you can take it up with a Judge And ifwe want to continue going back and forth and bantering not allowing the witness to answer the question were here for you today for you to ask the questions and for you to get answers But if you continue to banter with the witness and interrupt the witness I will adjourn the deposition This is not proper and we certainly can take it up with the Judge So thats the second warning Mr Scarola Please MR SCAROLA How many do I get MR PIKE Im not sure yet today MR SCAROLA Okay MR PIKE Okay MR SCAROLA Good Then lets move on Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page MR PIKE But I can tell you one thing On a professional nature just because you are interrupting the witness and bantering with me I will adjourn the deposition BY MR SCAROLA Besides having gone to the media in an attempt to quote gin up unquote these allegations and engaged in what you contend to be irrelevant discovery proceedings what else did Mr Edwards personally do that forms the basis for this lawsuit A Mr Edwards personally engaged with his partners Scott Rothstein who sits in a Federal jail cell potentially for the rest of his life he shared information what Ive been told and excuse me what Ive read in the newspapers boxes of information that had my name on it with other attorneys at his firm He counseled his clients to maintain a position alleging multi-million dollar damages in order for them to scam local investors out of millions of dollars He and his many of his other partners already under investigation by the FBI and the U.S Attorney have been accused by the U.S Attorney of running a criminal enterprise Page Anything else MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Not I can think of at the moment BY MR SCAROLA Okay What media did Mr Edwards go to A I am aware of at least the Daily News in New York City I have been told by other people that there were other media local media Ive been told that the his investigator was sent to California to harass people representing his Brad Edwards investigator representing fictitiously fraudulently that he was a FBI agent to try to gather information for Mr Edwards claims Does that have something to do with going to the media MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Ive answered your question BY MR SCAROLA Does the investigator going to California to do something have something to do with the media A I believe Ive also told that you that hes gone to the Daily News sir is that correct MR PIKE Form Mischaracterizes the Page witness testimony as well BY MR SCAROLA Do you understand the question that youre supposed to be answering MR PIKE Well lets go ahead and repeat it MR SCAROLA No lets get an lets get an answer to that question BY MR SCAROLA Do you understand the question youre supposed to be answering A When MR PIKE Im confused Wait one second THE WITNESS Sorry MR PIKE Im confused as to what question is on the table MR SCAROLA And when your deposition is being taken your confusion is relevant and material MR PIKE Right And its MR SCAROLA When Mr Edwards excuse me when Mr Epsteins deposition is being taken Im concerned with whether he understands the question being asked MR PIKE Right So BY MR SCAROLA Page Do you understand the question youre supposed to be answering Mr Epstein MR PIKE And Im going to instruct you not to answer that question right now because as your Counsel I cannot let you answer that question until I understand what question is on the table Theres been a lot of bantering back and forth so Mr Scarola if you would respectfully repeat the question and then you may be able to ask him whether or not he understands the question But I cannot allow him to answer a question that I dont understand is on the table BY MR SCAROLA What does an investigator going to California have to do with Mr Edwards allegedly going to the media in an attempt to quote gin up unquote these allegations MR PIKE Please answer the question THE WITNESS Good Its part of Mr Edwards scheme to involve people who have nothing to do with any of his cases in order to in fact go back to the media and gin up his stories and make false allegations of people that have sexually charged nature cases in order to attempt to fleece investors local investors out of millions of Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page dollars His firm has been accused by the U.S Attorney of manipulating the media by hiring investigators by illegal wire taps by illegal methods of eavesdropping in order to go to the media and generate cases BY MR SCAROLA When did Mr Edwards go to the Daily News A I dont know How did he go to the Daily News A I dont know What did he say to the Daily News A I believe Mr Edwards knows that I dont know exactly what he said What is the source of your information that he went to the Daily News at all ever MR PIKE To the extent you can answer that question without violating any attorney/client privileges you can answer the questions THE WITNESS Its attorney/client BY MR SCAROLA You said you were told by other people that he went to other media representatives A Yes sir Who are the other people that told you that Page A I dont recall at the moment What did these other people who you dont remember tell you Mr Edwards did with respect to other media representatives besides the Daily News A Again the question again What did these other people tell you Mr Edwards did with respect to going to other media MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Mr Edwards went to the media to gin up his cases in order that the Rothstein firm could generate profits falsely taking in investors creating false stories to the local medias and making statements to local press regarding false claims made by his clients in order that Scott Rothstein who currently sits in jail could defraud along with his other partners of his firm local Florida investors Mr Scarola out of millions of dollars BY MR SCAROLA When did these other people whose identity you cant remember tell you these things that Brad Edwards did A Sometime in the past year How many other people were there who told you these things about Mr Edwards Page A I dont recall with specificity Well do you recall in any degree how many there were A I would say probably five to ten Where were you when these conversations took place that you cant the identity of whose participants you cant remember MR PIKE So were clear within the last year correct timewise MR SCAROLA Well thats what your client said I dont believe a word he says but thats what he said MR PIKE Form Objection Overbroad THE WITNESS Again sir BY MR SCAROLA Yes sir Where did these conversations with these five to ten people take place whose identity you cant remember MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS On the telephone BY MR SCAROLA Who initiated the phone calls A Sir these questions I have no I dont have any recollection Did the people who were on the phone identify Page themselves or were these anonymous callers MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Sitting here today Mr Scarola I dont recall with specificity BY MR SCAROLA What specifically did Mr Edwards allegedly communicate to the Daily News to quote gin up these allegations unquote A The newspapers have quoted Mr Edwards not quoted Mr newspapers have made allegations referred to as Mr Edwards statements MR SCAROLA Would you read the question back please Sandy Pending question was read MR PIKE Did he answer your question MR SCAROLA No MR PIKE Are you asking him again THE WITNESS So youre asking the question again BY MR SCAROLA Yes THE WITNESS Sorry Could you repeat the question again Pending question was read THE WITNESS He alleged that third parties Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page had already been involved in some allegations to do with sexual misconduct BY MR SCAROLA Which third parties A I dont recall sitting here today Involvedhow MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS IfI recall with specificity if I had the articles in front ofme I would be able to recall Maybe next time BY MR SCAROLA What does gin up these allegations mean MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS It means craft allegations of multi-million dollar cases in fact alleging in L.M.s case damages of 50-million settlements in order for Scott Rothstein and the rest of Mr Edwards partners to fleece unsuspecting investors out of millions and millions of dollars based on cases that didnt exist or alleged cases that I had settled Can I take a break VIDEOGRAPHER Going off video record Briefrecess VIDEOGRAPHER Were now on video record at Page a.m BY MR SCAROLA Was your reference to quote gin up these allegations unquote a reference to allegations made against you MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS As part of the vast conspiracy of the Rothstein firm and Mr Edwards participation in it it has been alleged that many cases were fraudulently brought alleged that have been brought ginned up meaning crafted multi-million dollar numbers put on cases in order to fleece investors where his partner Scott Rothstein currently sits in jail for just those purposes Mr Scarola BY MR SCAROLA My question to you is Did the reference to quote gin up these allegations refer to allegations against you A Reported in the newspaper the answer is yes And others but specifically me yes by the newspaper reports Specifically what are the allegations against you which you contend Mr Edwards ginned up A I would like to answer that question A many Page of the files and documents that weve requested from Mr Edwards and the Rothstein firm are still unavailable With respect to anything that I can point to today Im unfortunately going to have to take the Fifth Amendment on that Sixth and 14th You seemed to be defining ginned up as crafted is that correct A Thats correct Does ginned up or crafted mean fabricated MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Im sorry Mr Scarola I understand that you are trying to back door your way into a waiver of my Fifth Amendment But respect to that question Im going to have assert my Fifth Amendment Sixth Amendment and 14th Amendment Right BY MR SCAROLA So you are asserting your Fifth Amendment Sixth Amendment and 14th Amendment Right to remain silent about what you mean when you use the words gin up and crafted is that correct A I dont believe that was your question Yes sir thats exactly my question A Would you repeat the question for me Page I want to know whether when you use the phrase gin up and the word crafted which you have told us is synonymous with gin up A Yes you mean fabricated A Im sorry On advice of Counsel sir and Ive answered that question before but if you didnt hear me the first time I must assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right What specific discovery proceedings did Mr Edwards engage in which you contend form the basis for your lawsuit A The discovery proceedings of bringing my attorneys to various people that had nothing to do with any of his clients or these lawsuits Which various people Who MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS For example he tried to depose Bill Clinton strictly as a means of getting publicity so that he and his firm could fraudulently steal craft money from unsuspecting investors in South Florida out of millions of dollars BY MR SCAROLA Who else besides Bill Clinton is included in Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page your reference to various people A There are people in California There are people in New York Would you name them for us please A Im sorry Sitting here today Mr Scarola Im going to have to assert my Fifth Amendment Sixth Amendment and 14th Amendment Right Lets then talk about Bill Clinton by whom I assume you mean former President Clinton is that correct A Thats correct All right Do you know former President Clinton personally A Im sorry As I sit here today though Id like to answer that question on advice of my Counsel at least today Im going to have to take the Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment You said something about Mr Edwards sharing boxes of information with somebody A Yes as forming part of the basis for your lawsuit against Mr Edwards correct A Correct All right With whom did Mr Edwards share these boxes of information Page A It has been reported in the Scherer Complaint that he shared those boxes with the partners of his firm that was then formally accused by the U.S Attorney sir of being a criminal enterprise MR PIKE And just for purposes BY MR SCAROLA Do you remember my question A You asked me who he shared it with Yes A The partners of his firm sir Okay So part of the basis of your lawsuit is that Mr Edwards allowed members of his own law firm to see boxes of information is that correct A No thats not correct My claim is that the boxes of information that were shown to investors by Mr Edwards partners boxes that weve been told by the press contain multiple cases fraudulently and if you like the word fabricated in order to fleece investors out of money The boxes were shared with investors Mr Edwards Mr Edwards partners and some of those partners currently under inditement the others already sitting in jail I had asked you earlier whether ginned up and crafted meant fabricated and you asserted your Fifth Amendment privilege Page Are you now telling us that there were claims against you that were fabricated by Mr Edwards A Im going to again assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right sir I would respond that the newspapers are very clear that the cases were fabricated Which newspaper said which case was fabricated A Bob Normans blog said most of the cases were fabricated to my best recollection The Scherer Complaint alleged many fabricated cases sir Well which of Mr Edwards cases do you contend were fabricated A Again weve requested most of the information from the bankruptcy trustee Weve been unable Mr Edwards has not given us the total file but respect to any individual I would have at the moment I would have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment claim sir So you will not answer questions about whether the claim on behalf of L.M was fabricated is that correct A I believe Ive already answered that but if again Ill have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Page Amendment Right sir Your Complaint also makes reference to a claim on behalf of Jane Doe referred to as Jane Doe versus Epstein case number a case pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida Is it your contention that the claim on behalf of Jane Doe is a fabricated claim A Sir though Id like to answer that question as well as every one of your other questions here today today Im going to have to assert my rights as under the Constitution of the Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Do you know the real name of the person referred to as Jane Doe in that case A I dont know which Im sorry sir I do not sitting here today Did you ever have personal contact with the person referred to by the name Jane Doe in that lawsuit A Im sorry sir Sitting here today Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right When did you first meet the person referred to as Jane Doe A Sir though Id like to answer each and every one of your questions here today at least with respect Pages to PROSE

me which is against the rules Mr Pike I dont know whats wrong with the form I object to you objecting to form Then I assert the attorney/client work product and now youre telling me Im coaching the witness So tell me Mr Scarola what is the what is the way that you would like me to object in this deposition and maybe I can conform that way for you which may or may not be consistent with the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure MR SCAROLA Mr Pike MR PIKE Yes sir Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page MR

SCAROLA Then we dont need to engage in any further discussion MR PIKE I want to try to make the record clear because initially you didnt want me to object to form You wanted me to speak So Im thinking

Mr Edwards firm engage in this behavior in an attempt to defraud local investors out of millions of dollars The U.S attorney has filed a Complaint saying that they did The Complaints filed by Scherer saying that his firm did The Scherer Complaint says my name and the boxes of files that weve subpoenaed used my name sir We have requested information but up until today have not received any To give

South Floridas history engaged in by Mr Edwards firm and Scott Rothstein who currently sits in jail probably for the rest of his life for engaging in not only illegal wire taps and eavesdropping but an abuse of the entire legal system I believe speaks for itself Unfortunately with respect to Mr Edwards today Im going to have to assert the attorney/client work privilege sir BY MR SCAROLA Is it

socialized with Tommy Mottola A This is the type of questions where people who have nothing to do with this case whatsoever have been brought into the case by Mr Edwards in an attempt to simply imperil my relationships with social friends and serves as an example of why this case has been brought against Mr Edwards and his firm sir MR PIKE Form as well BY MR SCAROLA Well do you know who brought those persons names into this lawsuit MR PIKE Form And just to be clear what Mr Scarola I believe talking about this lawsuit Epstein versus RRA BY MR SCAROLA Yes sir thats the lawsuit Im talking Page about The one in which your deposition is being taken today Do you know who brought those persons names into this lawsuit A As a reaction and only as a reaction to total misbehavior on Mr Edwards part and the Complaint was obviously written by my attorneys sir So you know that those names are in your Complaint right A Yes sir Okay So because those names are in your Complaint Im asking you about the people you named Have you had a social relationship with Tommy Mottola A The names in my Complaint are strictly as a reaction to the abusive discovery process by Mr Edwards his partners Scott Rothstein who sits in jail in an attempt to imperil my friendships But yes I have socialized with Mr Mottola Have you ever socialized with Mr Mottola in the presence of females under the age of MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS At least today the typical to the Edwards contention of bringing cases of a malicious nature where his partner sits in jail for Page this just this type of behavior the answer is today at least I must assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right though Id like to answer each and every one of your questions Mr Scarola BY MR SCAROLA Have you had a social relationship with David Copperfield A As a reaction to once again the abusive discovery process of bringing in names of people that have absolutely nothing to do with any of Mr Edwards Mr Rothsteins or their clients claims by bringing in the names of friends of mine strictly in an attempt to stress my relationships imperil my business relationships Im going to say yes I do know Mr Copperfield Have you ever socialized with David Copperfield A Again as MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Sorry Its a typical Edwards/Rothstein strategy of trying to involve well-known people in maliciously fabricated cases in order to fleece investors out of millions of dollars They brought up names in attempts at abuse of discovery process to try and Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page take discovery of people who have nothing to do with this case Did I socialize with David Copperfield The answer is yes BY MR SCAROLA Did you ever socialize with David Copperfield in the presence of females under the age of A Im sure again this question is a typical question of Mr Edwards/Rothstein scheme to defraud investors asking questions knowing it serves no purpose or relationship relevance to their case whatsoever At least today though Id like to answer that question on advice of my Counsel and only on advice of my Counsel Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right MR PIKE Form as well BY MR SCAROLA Have you ever had a social relationship with Bill Richardson Governor ofNew Mexico and formerly U.S Representative and Ambassador to the United Nations MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS As is typical of the Edwards scheme along with his partner Scott Rothstein who sits in jail what they attempted to do was Page bring in any celebrity I might have known well-known people in an attempt to strictly imperil my relationships with these people where these people have no bearing whatsoever on any of their claims or cases Yes I do have a social relationship BY MR SCAROLA Have you ever socialized with Mr Richardson in the presence offemales under the age of MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Again typical of the Edwards/Rothstein scheme ofbringing in well-known people asking them ridiculous questions ridiculous questions in an attempt strictly to imperil my relationships with these people where they have absolutely nothing to do with anything to do with Edwards Rothstein or any of their alleged victims the answer to your question is yes I have socialized BY MR SCAROLA Yes but that wasnt my question My question was Have you ever socialized with Mr Richards in the presence offemales under the age of MR PIKE Form Page THE WITNESS In response to your question again my full answer was typical of the Edwards/Rothstein scheme to ask questions of a sexual charged nature crafted cases the U.S Attorney has called his firm the largest fraud in U.S history fleecing investors out of millions of dollars by engaging in just these types of questions Though I would like to answer each and every question about every one of these people on advice ofmy Counsel today I must take assert my Fifth Amendment Sixth Amendment and 14th Amendment Right Though Id prefer to answer the question I was told that ifl choose to do so I risk losing their representation sir BY MR SCAROLA Have you ever sexually abused children MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS On advice of Counsel and only upon advice of Counsel though Id like to answer that question as well as every other one of your claims brought by Mr Edwards and his partner who currently sits in jail sir I would like to answer those questions But today at least I have to assert my Sixth Amendment 14th Amendment and Fifth Amendment Right Though Id prefer to answer the Page question Im told by my Counsel that if I choose to do so which is my preference I risk losing their representation BY MR SCAROLA How many children have you sexually abused MR PIKE Form And I just want to be clear on the record These types of questions are argumentative and harassing And moreover its my contention that these types of questions are not related to this lawsuit by any stretch of the imagination In this deposition while Ive been liberal in allowing these questions are being utilized in an attempt to provoke a waiver of the Fifth Amendment Right There has been an Order entered by I believe Judge Hafele regarding these types of questions So with that caution Mr Scarola I would ask you that you refrain from asking abusive and harassing questions that are not relevant to this case MR SCAROLA Well its very interesting that you claim theyre not relevant when they are directly taken from the allegations in your Complaint And I agree with you that they are not Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page relevant because there is no basis whatsoever for this claim against Mr Edwards But since youve made these baseless allegations I am obliged to pursue the allegations by asking these questions So well move on from there And whenever you think its appropriate to terminate this deposition because you believe that Ive acted inappropriately be my guest MR PIKE I appreciate your invitation Mr Scarola Im going to move to strike The fact is Mr Scarola is that these types of questions have already been ruled upon as being argumentative and harassing If you want to direct some questions relevant to your lawsuit I invite you to do so But attempting to use this deposition process as a mechanism to provoke a waiver of the Fifth Amendment and to obtain information that is more or potentially more relevant to Mr Edwards cases in which he is lead Counsel on I think is improper BY MR SCAROLA Did you have staff members that assisted you in scheduling appointments with underage females that is females under the age of Page A So along with many of the other claims that the Rothstein firm crafted with malicious claims against people like me and others of a sexually charged nature in order to simply fleece investors out of millions of dollars in South Florida these types of questions though Id like to answer today at least this specific question Im going to have to assert unfortunately my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Right though Id prefer to answer the question BY MR SCAROLA Who are the others referred to in that response A Again sir You said you and others Who are the others that you were referring to A Youll have to read my answer back MR PIKE Im

to find out more details of the others that youve just asked about People I believe the Attorney Scherer has filed a Complaint for some of the others who have been defrauded as well as some of the investors who were told about many others sir BY MR SCAROLA So you dont know any names is that correct MR PIKE Form Move to strike Mischaracterizes the witness testimony THE WITNESS Im sure thats an its an easy way of saying that as a response to the Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page questions and subpoenas weve asked Mr Edwards to produce so we can find out the specific names of the others who have been the U.S Attorney has claimed have been blackmailed and victims of the Rothstein firm Id be

WITNESS Again at least with respect to what Ive pled guilty to I pled guilty to procuring a single minor With respect to the rest of your question Im going to have to assert my Fifth Sixth and 14th Amendment Rights as provided by my Counsel BY MR SCAROLA When did you procure the minor for prostitution as to which procurement you pled guilty MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS I dont know Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page BY MR SCAROLA Was there a time before you entered your guilty plea when you knew the

and proportion is relevant to both damages and anything else hes done in this case sir BY MR SCAROLA But Im not asking you about what the U.S Attorneys opinion is I want to know whether you hold Mr

forgot the names of the others at the moment sir but its in the Complaint Why didnt you sue them MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Attorney/client privilege sir MR PIKE Work product MR SCAROLA I have no further questions MR EDWARDS I have three or four questions Thats it MR PIKE Okay I just want to be clear for Page the record Mr Scarola represents Mr Edwards in this case is that correct Mr Scarola MR EDWARDS Thats correct MR SCAROLA Yes MR PIKE And in this particular case Epstein versus Rothstein et al Mr Edwards who do you specifically represent MR EDWARDS L.M MR PIKE Okay I believe that if you follow through with questioning you have an irreconcilable conflict with regard to the other case in which you represent L.M and L.M I cannot stop you from asking any questions however if you do move forward with asking questions I will take the appropriate action MR SCAROLA And on behalf on behalf of my client MR PIKE Yes sir MR SCAROLA we do not accept your assessment of Mr Edwards ethical responsibilities MR PIKE That is absolutely fine for you to do that I just wanted to put it on the record that I am by no means going to prevent you from questioning today However I wanted to put my Page contention on the record Okay CROSS EXAMINATION BY MR EDWARDS Mr Epstein is your sole basis for your claim against L.M that she changed her testimony from the time she testified to the FBI in MR PIKE Form To the extent you can answer that question without invading attorney/client work product you can do so THE WITNESS Unfortunately Id like to answer that question but I cant do so without invading attorney/client privilege BY MR EDWARDS Is there anything in L.M.s Complaint that was filed against you in September which you contend to be false MR PIKE Asked and answered THE WITNESS I recognize Mr Edwards again the concept of attempting me to get to waive my Fifth Amendment privilege however in this lawsuit Ive answered questions with respect to your lawsuit And with regard to the question you just asked Im going to have to unfortunately assert my Fifth Amendment Sixth Amendment and 14th Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Electronically signed by Sandra Townsend Page Amendment Right But Im willing to listen to any other questions you may have MR EDWARDS Finished MR PIKE I have a couple questions CROSS EXAMINATION BYMR.PIKE Mr Epstein earlier in the deposition Mr Scarola was reading from page of the Complaint filed in the Epstein versus Rothstein Rosenfeldt and Adler et al Do you recall that A Yes sir And then I showed you page of a Complaint that I had my notes on correct A Yes Did you read the black type or did you read the handwritten notes in the comers of the Complaint that particular page that I showed you A Unfortunately my eyesight is not good enough to read the notes I only read the black letter And it was that one sentence correct A It was two sentences I believe but yes MR PIKE Thank you Well read REDIRECT EXAMINATION BY MR SCAROLA What is your eyesight A Sorry What is your eyesight A My eyesight Page Yes sir You said that your eyesight was not good enough to be able to read the handwritten notations What is your eyesight A Are we on the record or off Were on the record MR PIKE Were on the record THE WITNESS I need glasses BY MR SCAROLA And you had those on when you were reading the Complaint didnt you A But these arent my sir What are they A I dont know Lets hand them over if you would Lets take a look at them A Sure Do you see anything No Is it your contention that those glasses were inadequate to enable you to read the handwritten Page notations on the Complaint MR PIKE Form Mischaracterizes testimony THE WITNESS My testimony was I only read the black letter and partially because I cannot see thoroughly through these glasses sir BY MR SCAROLA Is it your contention that those glasses did not sufficiently correct your vision to be able to read the handwritten notations on the papers that were handed to you MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS Again we can play this game back and forth What I just said and I think I was very clear that I did not read the notes I said BY MR SCAROLA What you said was you couldnt read the notes MR PIKE Allow the witness to finish THE WITNESS Let me finish And what I said was with these glasses it would be almost impossible for me to read the notes on the page BY MR SCAROLA Yes sir So your contention is that those glasses do not adequately correct your vision to be able Page to read the handwritten notations is that correct MR PIKE Form THE WITNESS In this particular instance sir these glasses did not Im not saying they cannot but did not allow me to read the notes thats correct MR SCAROLA I would like those glasses marked as an Exhibit to this deposition MR PIKE I dont think so MR SC ARO LA Youre refusing to allow that to happen MR PIKE I dont see how you can mark a set of glasses as an Exhibit to a deposition The witness has already said that he did not read the handwritten notes in the comer or the comers of page of the Complaint MR SCAROLA The witness is a liar The witness testimony is totally incredible The witness made up a response and I want to be able to demonstrate to the Court and jury that the witness lied when he said that those glasses did not correct his vision sufficiently to be able to read the handwritten notes I want the glasses marked as an Exhibit If you refuse to mark them I am placing you Pages to PROSE COURT REPORTING AGENCY INC Electronically
