Case 1:19-cr-00490-RMB Document 53 Filed 09/03/19 Page 35 of 86 J8RPEPS2 1 MS. WILD: My name is Courtney Wild, and I'm a victim of Jeffrey Epstein. Jeffrey Epstein sexually abused me for years, robbing me of my innocence and mental health. Jeffrey Epstein has done nothing but manipulate our justice system, where he has never been held accountable for his actions, even to this day. Jeffrey Epstein robbed myself and all the other victims of our day in court to confront him one by one, and for that he is a coward. I want to thank the U.S. Attorney's for seeking justice that has been long over due, and most importantly, given us, the victims, our day in court to speak our peace and find some sort of closure. I feel very angry and sad that justice has never been served in this case. Thank you. THE COURT: Thanks very much. MR. EDWARDS: I believe my next client who is going to speak is probably going to speak as Jane Doe. JANE DOE NO. 1: Yes, Jane Doe. THE COURT: We'll say Jane Doe No. 1, just for the record. JANE DOE NO. 1: Okay. Thank you for allowing us to speak today. I've shifted what I want to say in hearing what's already been said, and just about the question of Jeffrey's death. I don't know what the relevance is to this hearing, but I do know that it is profoundly relevant to my SOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C. (212) 805-0300 DOJ-OGR-00000673
