she laid out how she met jeffrey epstein and ghislaine - jeffrey epstein and ghislaine maxwell when her father had just died and herfamily were maxwell when her father had just died and her family were struggling financially and she said they befriended her. at first she looked at ghislaine maxwell as an older sister figure at ghislaine maxwell as an older sisterfigure but at ghislaine maxwell as an older sister figure but then she said she started talking about six and started talking about six and started appearing topless in front of her. she said that is when the alleged abuse began, and she said it happened for years, at least once or twice a week, and she talked about being frozen in fear, terrified, ashamed, disgusted, the abuse. she said ghislaine maxwell also allegedly arranged for her to travel to epstein�*s properties in new york and new mexico. the defence has accused jane of changing her story many times and ghislaine maxwell has pleaded not guilty and sat there listening attentively as the woman spoke. listening attentively as the woman soke. a , listening attentively as

if you're jeffrey epstein, your limo driver is a jet driver. they seen maxwell coming and going and who they were with and where they go. he may not go into the mansion when they arrive but he can talk about a lot of stuff that he saw in the course of his employment. >> and i think the obvious answer, i mean, jeffrey epstein had a lot of information, clearly. he took a lot to the grave including a lot of high profile alleged clients' names. here is one of them. here is donald trump. this is what he said after maxwell's arrest back in 2020. >> maxwell is in prison so a lot of people want to know if she'll turn in powerful people. >> i wish her well, frankly. i've met her numerous times since i lived in palm beach and they lived in palm beach. i wish her well, whatever it is. >> they were friends. there are lots of pictures of them being friendly and friends, et cetera. i take it from just what i'm reading we shouldn't expect to hear high profile names like that one come up in this case, no? >> probably not. presidents have a long history of open

then the infamous jeffrey epstein black book. federal prosecutors are trying to get this black book boo evidence. they say they will have a way of authenticating it. the defense doesn't want it in there but say it will help to prove the charges against maxwell. that's just some of the things we expect the prosecutors to show in the trial to try to convict ghislaine maxwell. >> in the past week we saw barclays bank ceo jeff staley step down under revelations he had 1200 emails with jeff epstein. stunning to think that the ceo of a major bank has been sitting son in his post knowing that a major investigation and thought, no, i'm okay in this job. besides jeff staley and a move like this what other investigations should we be aware of that could impact other people, besides maxwell? >> reporter: right, obviously the staley investigation which as we saw reported by our colleagues at cnbc, he's being subpoenaed by the u.s. virgin islands. on top of that, it's been reported that the manhattan district attorney's office is taking a loo

jury selection is under way in a new york courtroom in the case of ghislaine maxwell, a jeffrey epstein confidant. we're also on white house watch this hour, because about 15 minutes from now president biden will leave for new hampshire to tout the freshly signed bipartisan infrastructure law. later in the hour, i'll talk to not one, but two mayors of major american cities who were at the signing yesterday. dayton ohio mayor, nan whaley and david holt, a republican. we'll talk about the hope this new law can bring to their home cities and does it signal real bipartisanship? >>> we start with the latest in the kyle rittenhouse trial. i'm joined by maya wiley. how would you expect a jury to approach deliberating a case like this? we saw the judge, both legal teams go into excruciating detail with those jury instructions yesterday. what do you think is going to happen in that jury room? >> it's great to be with you. look, you know, the jury was really handed two separate stories yesterday, one from the prosecution, which said kyle rittenhouse is a chaos tourist and an active shooter, and o

on monday prosecutors described her as central to jeffrey epstein's network. she trafficked the girls before serving them up to epstein so they would feel more at ease. he was unable to get justice after his death by suicide in 2018. the defense's first witness operated the so-called lolita express, which allegedly brought teens across state lines and to epstein in the caribbean. stephanie, what have we heard today? >> we have some breaking news, because there are four accusers in this case, and one of those accusers just took the stand. she is being called jane by the prosecution, and she alleges she was 14 years old at a summer camp when she first met epstein and ghislaine maxwell. according to the prosecutors, she went on to be sexually abused by epstein at the age of 15 and the age of 16. it's important also, because earlier in the day we heard from jeffrey epstein's pilot to his private jet. he talked about transporting the glitterati, kevin spacey and prince andrew on this jet, but he also says he remembers meeting this young woman jane. at the time he t

is there a risk for the prosecutors in they try to make this a trial of jeffrey epstein? i mean, to link the two of them together and say every bad thing he did, she does also? >> there's not only a risk, i think the judge has cut back a good bit of the evidence that we might have otherwise expected. like, you know, we may be interested in epstein's relationship with prince andrew or bill clinton or donald trump. but it sounds like the judge is going to keep the focus pretty narrow, on whether the evidence supports the crimes charged against mac well. -- maxwell. it could also break if you demonize epstein, well, then what the defense might want to do is say he was so powerful. he was so manipulative. he was such a sven golly figure, that he held so much sway over ghislaine maxwell, that perhaps she is not fully responsible for her own conduct. now, that is not what i would call a legal defense. for example, of duress. but it can certainly be an emotional defense that could resonate with one or more of the jurors. and let's face it. the next best thing for a defendant to

before jes staley joined beforejes staleyjoined barclays in 2015 he worked atjpmorgan where jeffrey epstein was an important client, and he doesn't deny he had a relationship with him but he said the contact was frequent but always very professional. the regulator has found that looking at e—mails between them, they said the volume of them and the tone of them suggests the relationship was a lot closer than jes staley suggests the relationship was a lot closer thanjes staley had told the board of barclays. this is the second time he has had a run in with the regulators and he was censured and fined for trying to track down a whistle—blower and although he says he will contest these findings, the board and jes staley felt it was difficult for him to run the bank if he is in open dispute with the regulator. he will contest these findings and he is doubly disappointed because he fought off a shareholder rebellion when he was backed by the board, and his strategy was beginning to bear fruit and the bank was doing very well. after a 40 year career he would not want this to be his legacy. as
