This morning in court, we were shown evidence from a hard drive that was taken by the FBI from Epstein’s home in 2019. From username “GMax” was a Word doc from Oct 2002 with what appears to me to be talking points about the nature of the relationship between Maxwell and Epstein.
It says they are “best friends” and insists that, though lots of people thought they were not a couple, they were in fact a couple for 11 years.
What I am wondering is if these are talking points that had possibly been prepared for me, as I was doing my reporting for Vanity Fair at that time.
In my interviews with him, Jeffrey Epstein did tell me Maxwell was his “best friend.” What he *didn’t* say to me was that they were a couple.
The implication I see (and I stress this is speculation) is that Maxwell was hoping to have an opportunity sell me the narrative that they were in love, but I never spoke to her about this.
