The veteran pilot of billionaire Jeffrey Epstein testified yesterday (Tuesday) in the trial of his British ally Galein Maxwell in New York that he flew celebrities to luxury resorts around the world.

Larry Wissotzky, the first witness in the trial in which Maxwell is accused of trafficking minors for sexual purposes, said he flew, among others, former Presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, British Prince Andrew and actor Kevin Spacey.



Maxwell, who was arrested last year, denies the charges against her, and her lawyers claim she serves as a scapegoat for Epstein's crimes, which ended his life in prison in 2019.

However, prosecutors claim the two were "accomplices to the crime" and if convicted of British Maxwell, who also has U.S. and French citizenship, she faces a maximum sentence of 80 years in prison.



When asked about her role in Epstein's activities, Wiszowski, who had been Epstein's pilot for 25 years, said she was "number 2" in the chain. "Epstein was number one." During his testimony, the plaintiffs presented the jury with photos of Epstein's assets from around the world. He said that while he had never seen with his own eyes sexual activity during the flights, the cockpit was always closed during them. Epstein's plane was called the "Lolita Express".



He described the relationship between Maxwell and Epstein as "more personal than business", but added that "I would not describe them as chromatic." He also said he flew Virginia Roberts Joffre, who claims to have been sexually assaulted by Prince Andrew, the son of Queen Elizabeth. He denies the allegations.



"Yes, she was a short woman with dirty blond hair. She did not look young. I mean, no matter how young you are defined. But to me, she was a woman," the pilot said.

During the trial, a woman who testified under a pseudonym Jane said Maxwell was often present in the room while having sex with Epstein, when she was only 14 years old.

She said she met the two during a summer camp in Michigan in 1994, and he was introduced to her as a wealthy donor offering scholarships to students.



Prosecutors said that while Epstein promised to fund her studies, he instead took advantage of her.

She said her father had died of cancer a year earlier and her family was suffering from financial difficulties at the time.

Jane said Maxwell was "very relaxed" about the encounters and talked to her about sex.

She said she began visiting Epstein's home every week or two, and they had sex for the first time while discussing her future.



According to her, Epstein led her from his office to his pool house, then he took off his pants and started masturbating.

"I froze in fear, I had never seen a penis before," she testified.

"I was shocked and felt disgusted and ashamed."

It was not long before they had sex for the first time at Epstein's home in Palm Beach, Florida.

"Their hands were everywhere"

Jane said Maxwell and Epstein led her to his bedroom, where they undressed and began "flirting with each other and giggling."

He then asked her to remove the shirt "and then their hands were everywhere and Jeffrey continued to masturbate and Gillane massaged him and kissed him and touched him".



She added that she traveled with Epstein and Maxwell about ten times, mostly between his homes in New York and New Mexico when she was 14 to 16. She recounted orgies with other participants, and testified to pain she suffered during those encounters.

She said Epstein and Maxwell took pride in their relationships, including with celebrities.



Jane is one of four defendants expected to testify at the trial.

Maxwell has denied all eight charges against her for trafficking in sex and other crimes, allegedly committed from 1994 to 2004. She was defined as the "lady of the house" who helped "normalize" the sexual exploitation of those girls.
