Evidence in Epstein’s case included an itemized list of purchases that were gifts.
This included a $11,000 Rolex watch itemized in August 2003 as a gift for Tom Barrack.
Three years later, in May 2006, Barrack’s assistant sent an email to Epstein’s assistant requesting a time change to a scheduled meeting between Barrack and Epstein because of “something urgent” that had come up.
