EFTA02731488-EFTA02731489: May 26, 2023 Call Notes Relaying Allegations Involving Leon Black

UpdatedSeptember 10, 2026

ByEpsteinWiki

Snapshot

EFTA02731488 and EFTA02731489 are two consecutive pages of notes dated May 26, 2023. The header identifies the subject as a trafficking-related call concerning Leon Black, and the body identifies the caller as attorney Jeanne Christensen of Wigdor LLP.

The notes relay allegations from or about an unnamed woman who reportedly said that Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell trafficked her while she was a minor and that Black violently sexually assaulted her at Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse. The document also records claims that she later spoke with law-enforcement authorities and that school and medical records might corroborate parts of her account.

These pages are not a verbatim transcript, sworn testimony, a criminal complaint, an indictment, or a judicial finding. They do not show who wrote the notes, whether the allegations were independently corroborated, or how investigators ultimately evaluated them. Black’s response does not appear in the two-page record.

Content warning: This article discusses alleged child trafficking, sexual assault, physical injury, and denial of medical care. It omits graphic details and personal information that could identify the woman or members of her family.

The beginning and end of the document are confirmed by the printed page identifiers: EFTA02731488 appears on the first page and EFTA02731489 appears on the second.

What the Record Is

The document is a compact set of bullet-point notes describing a May 26, 2023 call with Christensen. It appears to summarize information communicated during the call rather than reproduce the speakers’ exact words.

The first page groups information under several redacted labels. Because those labels are concealed, the document does not always make clear whether a particular statement came directly from the unnamed woman, from Christensen, from another person, or from the note taker’s summary. That limitation matters when assessing attribution and reliability.

The record should therefore be cited as evidence that allegations and potential corroborating records were reported to the note taker. It should not be cited as proof that the underlying events occurred.

Allegations Recorded in the Notes

The notes attribute the following claims to the call:

An unnamed woman reportedly said that Black was sexually violent toward her over a period of years.
She allegedly was 16 when Black sexually assaulted her at Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse in approximately 2001 or 2002.
The encounter allegedly began after she was told to give Black a massage.
The alleged assault caused serious physical injury.
People at the townhouse allegedly refused to obtain medical care for her and instead flew her out of New York the following day.
Epstein allegedly exploited the woman during a period when she was vulnerable and paid her for massages.
The notes allege that she was trafficked from 2001 through the end of 2004 and was sent to numerous men.
A redacted person allegedly transferred control of her to Maxwell and Epstein.
The woman reportedly described Maxwell as a mother figure while also alleging cruel conduct. The notes say she believed Maxwell sometimes refused Epstein’s demands that the woman be sent to particular men.

These are allegations preserved in an unsworn summary. The two pages do not include an interview recording, supporting exhibits, a signed declaration, or a determination that any allegation was substantiated.

Reported Contacts With Authorities

The notes state that information connected to the woman was communicated to or discussed with several law-enforcement bodies:

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Manhattan, reportedly in May or June 2021
The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office
U.S. Virgin Islands officials, who reportedly sought interviews in late 2020 and early 2021

The document says the woman participated in approximately two meetings with a lawyer in connection with the U.S. Virgin Islands inquiry. It does not identify every official involved, reproduce an interview report, or state the outcome of any investigation.

The mere recording of these contacts does not establish that prosecutors accepted the allegations as true or that criminal charges followed.

Records Mentioned but Not Included

The notes refer to two possible categories of corroborating material:

High-school attendance records that reportedly showed a pattern of absences
Medical records that reportedly documented trauma and referred to a violent assault

Neither category of records is attached to EFTA02731488-EFTA02731489. The notes do not identify the records’ custodians, dates, authors, or chain of custody. Their contents therefore cannot be independently verified from this document alone.

People and Organizations Named

Leon Black: The principal subject of the allegations recorded in the notes. The document identifies him as a powerful Wall Street figure and a friend of Epstein.
Jeffrey Epstein: Alleged in the notes to have exploited and trafficked the unnamed woman and to have brought her into contact with Black and other men.
Ghislaine Maxwell: Alleged in the notes to have participated with Epstein in controlling the woman. The account also describes a complicated relationship in which the woman reportedly viewed Maxwell as a mother figure.
Jeanne Christensen: Identified as the attorney participating in the May 26, 2023 call. The notes say she had represented the woman in a civil defamation matter, not a sex-abuse case, and no longer represented her at the time of the call.
Wigdor LLP: The law firm identified beside Christensen’s name.
Law-enforcement offices: The notes reference contacts with federal prosecutors in Manhattan, the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, and U.S. Virgin Islands officials.

Naming a person or institution in a call memo does not by itself establish criminal conduct, civil liability, knowledge, or institutional acceptance of the allegations.

Black’s Position and Later Public Proceedings

EFTA02731488-EFTA02731489 does not contain a statement from Black or his representatives.

Later public reporting described a federal civil action filed by a Jane Doe whose allegations materially resembled portions of this memo, including an alleged assault at age 16 in Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse. Black denied that plaintiff’s allegations and said he had never met her. In April 2026, a federal judge sanctioned that plaintiff and her former attorney over evidence-related and litigation misconduct, but permitted the plaintiff to continue pursuing the case. The sanctions ruling did not adjudicate the truth of the underlying assault allegation.

Because the woman’s name is redacted in the EFTA record, this article does not treat similarities between the memo and later litigation as conclusive proof that they concern the same person.

Black has also denied sexual-assault allegations made in other, separate civil cases. Those denials and case outcomes should not be mechanically applied to the unnamed woman in this memo.

Privacy and Redactions

The released pages redact the woman’s name and substantial identifying information. The notes nonetheless contain sensitive biographical, family, educational, medical, and location details.

EpsteinWiki omits those details because repeating them could enable identification of a person described as a survivor of child sexual exploitation. The article also avoids reproducing the document’s graphic anatomical descriptions. Those omissions do not alter the evidentiary meaning of the record.

The unnamed woman should not be identified by speculation, pattern matching, or comparison with unrelated public records.

What the Document Establishes

The two pages establish that:

Notes dated May 26, 2023 record a call with Jeanne Christensen of Wigdor LLP.
The call concerned allegations involving Leon Black, Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and an unnamed woman described as having been trafficked while underage.
The notes record an allegation that Black violently sexually assaulted the woman at Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse when she was 16.
The notes record claimed contacts with federal, New York, and U.S. Virgin Islands authorities.
The notes identify possible school and medical records, although those records are not included.

What the Document Does Not Establish

The two pages do not establish:

That the allegations were proven or independently corroborated
That the note taker personally witnessed any alleged event
That the notes are a verbatim or complete account of the call
The identity of the unnamed woman
The authenticity, contents, or relevance of the school and medical records mentioned
The conclusions reached by any law-enforcement agency
That Black was charged with or convicted of an offense arising from these allegations
That any later civil plaintiff is necessarily the same person described in the memo

Evidentiary Weight

This record is best classified as an unsworn, second-hand investigative lead or intake summary. Its value lies in documenting what was reported, when it was reported, which people and institutions were named, and what potential corroborating records were said to exist.

Its limitations are substantial: the author is not identified in the released pages, the source labels are redacted, the document is not signed or sworn, no supporting records are attached, and no response from Black is included. Any account of the allegations should preserve those limitations.
