SDNY COURTHOUSE, Nov 4 – Jane Doe 3 sued Jeffrey Epstein's lawyer Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn for their role in Epstein's rape, sexual assault and sex trafficking.  

  On November 6, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Arun Subramanian held a public proceeding, and Inner City Press live tweeted it. From the thread:

Judge Subramanian: OK, we'll address the request to depose Doe's husband

Plaintiff's lawyer: Ms. Doe does not want her husband to know about this. So we are willing at trial to drop claims having to do with harm to the marriage. Jane Doe had not told anyone...

Judge: Defendants, what do you want to ask?

Defense counsel: He dated her before the Epstein time, before her return to [voluntarily redacted here - see Substack below the line here]. They got married in 2017, these alleged incidents took place in 2014.

Defense lawyer: We got copies of her texts to her now-husband, he had moved to  [voluntarily redacted here - see Substack below the line here]. Jane Doe 3 appeared to be having a fine time with Epstein, Broadway shows and the like.

On December 20, more bristling at transparency, thread

On November 4, 2025 after Inner City Press' ebook about US v. Ghislaine Maxwell was blocked, Judge Subramanian ordered some of this Doe 3 case unsealed - but not right away, the parties will have to agree to docket. From the docket: "Defendants' motion for further redactions in plaintiffs' letter motion is GRANTED IN PART. Defendants' motion to seal in their entirety exhibits to the parties' motion containing email correspondence, Dkts. 364-1, 364-2, 364-4, 364-5, 364-6, and 369-1 is DENIED. Defendants' motion to seal in its entirety an exhibit to plaintiffs' motion containing an invoice, Dkt. 364-3, is DENIED. Defendants' motion to seal in its entirety an exhibit to plaintiffs' motion containing defendants' privilege log, Dkt. 364-7, is DENIED. The parties shall meet and confer regarding redactions in line with this order. The Court hopes the parties can agree on redactions, which they can then file on the public docket. All documents currently under seal shall remain under seal. (Signed by Judge Arun Subramanian on 11/3/2025)."

This case is Doe 3 v. Indyke, et al., 1:24-cv-1204 (Subramanian)
