The Vault: The Epstein Files The Sarah Ransome Deposition From The Maxwell/Virginia Roberts Lawsuit (Part 1) (2/13/26)

Sarah Ransome’s deposition offers a disturbing account of her exploitation by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. She described being lured to New York under false pretenses and quickly forced into a world of manipulation and abuse. Ransome testified to being coerced into group sexual acts, including one incident involving a well-known attorney. She recounted life on Epstein’s private island and inside his New York mansion as being tightly controlled and openly sexual, where young women were “lent out” to powerful men and Maxwell ran the properties like a brothel. She spoke of being subjected to weight demands, emotionally broken down, and even attempting to escape by swimming away—only to be caught and returned.
Ransome also claimed Epstein kept extensive flight logs, took photos and videos of sexual encounters, and may have used them as leverage over high-profile associates. However, her credibility was later challenged after she sent emails alleging the existence of sex tapes involving major political and business figures—claims she later admitted were fabricated in a desperate attempt to draw attention to her situation. She expressed remorse for those statements and acknowledged that they were false. Still, her deposition remains one of the most revealing inside views of how Epstein’s trafficking operation functioned—highlighting both the calculated cruelty of the system and the lasting psychological toll it inflicted on its victims.
