Jennifer Araoz, Alleged Survivor of Jeffrey Epstein, Says She Was Raped at Age 15
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This comes as another woman-Jennifer Araoz-told NBC she was recruited by
Epstein when she was just 14 years old, and raped by Epstein in his New
York City townhouse when she was 15. She was interviewed by Savannah
Guthrie.

Savannah Guthrie: "In your mind, did you use the word 'rape'? Did you
recognize it then"-

Jennifer Araoz: "No."

Savannah Guthrie: -"as rape?"

Jennifer Araoz: "No, I don't think I did. I just thought, like, you
know, it's my fault, like I was like obligated, like that's just what
you're supposed to do."

On Wednesday, Araoz asked a New York City court for help in identifying
the woman who first recruited her to come to Epstein's mansion.
