To Whom it may Concern, My name is Lesley Groff and I have worked as Jeffrey Epstein's personal assistant since February of 2001. When I first started with Jeffrey I was very excited at the aspect of working with such a brilliant, high powered and socially intertwined individual. But I had no idea at how truly fascinating Jeffrey is and how incredibly he would impact my life personally, as well as so many others around me. My first encounter with Jeffrey's generosity came when I needed treatments every month for 6 months from Dr. Stephen Victor, a dermatologist. Jeffrey insisted on paying for my visits. I was overwhelmed. This was just the tip of the iceberg. When my husband and I moved to Connecticut from New York City, Jeffrey was THE most accommodating employer. He knew I wanted to keep my job, but also knew the commute time was going to cut into my family life. Because of this, Jeffrey purchased me a Mercedes Benz (he said I could buy anything I wanted!) and said I could shift my hours to leave at 4:00 so I could spend time with my husband at home. This is a man who thinks about other people and their lives. When I got pregnant and in conversation jokingly complained that maternity clothes were ugly and awful, he promptly left the office and went straight over to Barney's NY and bought me some nice maternity clothes! This was totally unnecessary but he did it to be nice and put a smile on my face...which it did! After giving birth to my child, Jeffrey let me take an extended maternity leave, paid me my regular salary the entire time I was at home and called me from time to time to check up on me and my new baby! I found this incredibly nice of him, especially when I know how busy of a man he is. Once returning to work, Jeffrey again accommodated my new life by allowing me to come to the city to work 3 days a week then setting me up with a computer and phone system at home so I could work from there if need be. And as if this was not enou
