Greenberg's gorgeous assistant was one of these women. U Greenberg knew about their affair, he did not seem to care. Then again, Greenberg had other things on his mind. The Rea- gan era, when deregulation kicked into high gear, was still on the horizon. But there was already a decreasing amount of gov- ernment oversight on Wall Street, and a new breed of bare-knuckle traders had begun to push every available limit. It was the start of the age of corporate raiders, and with Ace Greenberg looking out for him, Epstein had no reservations when it came to throw- ) ng his weight around.

Invoking the US constitution’s fifth amendment, which protects against self-incrimination, Polish-born Ross, 27, replied: “I refuse to answer.” She was also asked “Have you ever met Prince Andrew?” and “Have you ever flown on [Epstein’s| plane with Prince Andrew?” Ross refused to answer. Flight logs show that Andrew was a passenger on Epstein’s jet in May 2000. In Ross’s interview it was alleged that the former Elite agency model travelled on the aircraft more than 50 times. It has been claimed that Epstein abused young girls on the jet. There is no suggestion that Andrew had sexual contact with any of the girls or that he knew Epstein abused them. Ross’s deposition will raise more questions about the prince’s judgment after he met the billionaire in New York in December following Epstein’s release from prison. Allegations have been made against Epstein by up to 40 girls, with at least 17 cases settled out of court. Epstein is said to have abused girls as young as 12. He secured protection for his associates through a non- prosecution agreement. The federal document names Ross as a possible co-conspirator. Lawyers acting for Epstein’s victims in the civil courts are challenging the agreement and claim it may lead to Andrew being asked to give evidence. In an interview with Bradley Edwards, a lawyer who represents some of the victims, Ross said she moved to Florida in 2002 after Elite obtained a visa for her to work in America. The model was then hired to work in Epstein

Legal documents obtained by The Sunday Times show that Adriana Ross was asked if the Duke of York was linked to the scandal surrounding his billionaire friend Jeffrey Epstein. Ross is one of four women who worked for the US financier who were named as “potential co-conspirators” when Epstein was convicted of sex offences involving a minor. In a videotaped interview during subsequent civil proceedings, lawyers asked Ross: “Has Prince Andrew ever been involved with underage minor females to your knowledge?” HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_009236
