relationship with Ariane de Rothschild, and so I knew that she would want to know, like, what exactly was going on. And so the way to find out exactly what was going on is actually to be there in the courtroom. And so I went with a partner of mine from the law firm, and we sat in the back of the courtroom to watch the -- just, you know, to see the proceedings and to see exactly what the nature of the charges were. Q And who was that partner from the law firm? A Chris Clark. Q Clark, C-l-a-r-k? A Uh-huh. Q Did you get the opportunity to have a conversation with Mr. Epstein before or after his arraignment proceedings? A I did not have the opportunity to talk to him in the courtroom. And I don't believe that he saw me in the courtroom, because I only saw the back of his head. Q And did you have any other conversations with Mr. Epstein after this arraignment proceeding? A I did not. Q Did he ever try to reach out to you that you're aware of? A Did he try to reach out to me to communicate with me? No. He -- at some point in the days after his arraignment, I was asked whether or not I would consider joining the defense team. Q And who asked you that? A My best recollection is that Mr. Indyke, Darren Indyke, who was Mr. Epstein's lawyer, asked me. Q And what did you say to Mr. Indyke about the ask? A I declined to join the defense team.
