Ghislaine: "Yup, there are tapes."
-
Ghislaine Maxwell appeared to admit Jeffrey Epstein was taping his famous friends, including Donald Trump and the Clintons, during a 2016 meeting with former CBS producer Ira Rosen, a new book reveals.
The British socialite, who is accused of procuring underage girls for the billionaire pedophile, reportedly told Rosen she didn't 'know where' such recordings were after the Emmy-winning producer asked her to hand over footage of Trump.
The conversation took place ahead of the 2016 US presidential election and Maxwell, who supported Hillary at the time, refused to help, saying: 'If you get the tapes on Trump you have to do [Bill] Clinton'.
The anecdote is included in Rosen's new book, Ticking Clock: Behind the Scenes at 60 Minutes, released Tuesday, in which he dishes about his time working at the investigative show.
The book sheds new light on reported claims that Epstein had secretly recorded his celebrity friends having sex with women and underage girls at his home - and then used the footage to blackmail them.
Two of Epstein's victims, Maria Farmer and Virginia Roberts Giuffre, have previously claimed that they saw a room full of CCTV monitors in a room at his $65million mansion in New York - with some cameras installed in the bathrooms.
In his memoir, Rosen reveals he arranged a meeting with Maxwell in early 2016, and acting on 'hunch' that the tapes existed, tricked her into confirming they did.
'I want the tapes. I know he [Epstein] was videotaping everyone and I want the tapes of Trump with the girls,' Rosen told her.
Maxwell replied: 'I don't know where they are.'
Rosen writes he told her to 'ask Epstein', adding that the 'fate of the country is at stake.'
'Trump could be elected president and how would you feel if those tapes emerged after he was in office?' Rosen asked Maxwell.
'She gave me a stern look and pointed a finger in my face. She said: "I am the daughter of a press baron. I know the way you people think. If you do one side, you must do the other. If you get the tapes on Trump you have to do Clinton".'
Rosen replied: 'I will. I will go wherever the story goes.'
According to Maxwell, however, Epstein, allegedly never told her of the whereabouts of the tapes, Rosen writes.
'Maxwell didn't want Trump elected, but said that Hillary Clinton was comfortably ahead and there was no need for the story to come out.
'Besides, she said, Epstein never shared with her the location of the tapes.'

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

@jon-nyc said in Ghislaine: "Yup, there are tapes.":
that is actually quite funny,
"Oh, that is definitely a forgery". Why would someone do that years before Jeffrey Epstein was even being investigated or even really known to anyone outside of his circle?
