She knew exactly what she was doing. She was dangerous. She was setting young girls up to be molested by a predator.\nThat's what we expect the evidence will show, that the defendant enticed and groomed multiple young girls to engage in sex acts with Jeffrey Epstein, that the defendant and Epstein enticed some of those girls to travel to Epstein's homes in different states, which the defendant knew would result in sexual abuse.\nAs a result of these actions, the defendant is charged in six counts.
