SDNY COURTHOUSE, Nov 6 – 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:

Plaintiff's lawyer: You can imagine a victim so traumatized they don't tell their spouse. Here, the husband is not going to be told. We're trying. Defense lawyer: Their expert says she was vulnerable, just out of a relationship with her now husband, out of work
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.
