She expressed gratitude for their, quote, friendship sometimes concluded her messages to Epstein with the sign up XO and xoxo.

There's one example we found where Rummler sent Epstein a message on his 62nd birthday in 2015 to wish him well, writing, I hope you enjoy the day with your one true love.

我們發現了一個例子，拉姆勒在2015年愛潑斯坦62歲生日時傳訊息祝他生日快樂，寫道：「希望你和你的唯一真愛一起享受這一天。」

Adding a smiley face, Epstein replied with a raunchy note and an apparent reference to masturbation, writing, they say men usually give a name to their penis as it would be inappropriate to make love to a total stranger.

加上一個笑臉，愛潑斯坦則以一段露骨的筆記回覆，並明顯提及自慰，寫道：「他們說男人通常會給他們的陰莖取名字，因為與陌生人做愛是不恰當的。」

Now, after receiving Epstein's racy reply, Rummler responded, hard to believe there is still an open question about whether men are the inferior gender.

She does not accede to Epstein's unsolicited gratuitous remarks about men and their penises.

她沒有同意愛潑斯坦關於男性及其陰莖的未經請求的、無端的言論。

Her participation in the entire exchange in, I think he meant, is limited to wishing Epstein a happy birthday, ridiculing Epstein for the remark, and

她只是祝愛潑斯坦生日快樂，嘲笑他那番話，然後

Okay, so the files also reveal new details about how Ruemmler advised Epstein regarding some of his legal and reputational problems.

好的，這些檔案也揭露了凱西·拉姆勒如何就愛潑斯坦的一些法律和名譽困擾向他提供建議的細節。

So what more can you tell us about that tonight?

今晚還能告訴我們更多關於這件事嗎？

In one exchange from February 2015, Rummler addressed a Crimes Victims Rights act lawsuit brought by Epstein's accusers.

在 2015 年 2 月的一次對話中，拉姆勒處理了愛潑斯坦的指控者根據《犯罪受害者權利法》提起的訴訟。

That's the lawsuit which sought to reopen his so called sweetheart plea deal from 2008.

In Another message from July 2015, Rummler forwarded Epstein a New York Times story which featured critics of sex offender registries like the one Epstein had been listed on for years by then.

在 2015 年 7 月的另一條訊息中，拉姆勒轉發了一篇《紐約時報》的文章給愛潑斯坦，文章中批評了像愛潑斯坦當時多年來一直列在上面的性犯罪者登記制度。

Did you see the New York Times story, Wray?

懷爾，你有看到《紐約時報》的報導嗎？

Thinking about whether there is an opportunity there.

Now, a spokesperson for Rummer told CNN in a statement that Epstein, quote, sought informal advice and she provided feedback based on her understanding at the time without any formal involvement.

現在，拉姆勒的發言人透過聲明告訴 CNN，愛潑斯坦「尋求非正式建議，而我根據當時的理解提供回饋，並沒有任何正式參與」。

Okay, well, you also found emails that show Rummler responding to an invitation from Epstein to visit that infamous private Caribbean island, right?

好的，嗯，你還找到了顯示拉姆勒回覆愛潑斯坦邀請，要他去那個臭名昭著的私人加勒比海島嶼的電子郵件，對吧？

According to the newly released files, Rummler at one point inquired about taking a quote day trip to Epstein's private Island.

根據新發布的檔案，拉姆勒曾一度詢問是否可以「一日遊」前往愛潑斯坦的私人島嶼。

In a January 16, 2017 email that you can see right here, Epstein asked if he could have a plane picker up in St.

在一封 2017 年 1 月 16 日的電子郵件中，你現在可以看到，愛潑斯坦詢問是否可以派飛機去聖

Rummler replied, asking, can we take a day trip to the island on Saturday or is it too far?

拉姆勒回覆，問說，我們週六可以去島上「一日遊」嗎？還是太遠了？

Emails then show a week later Epstein appearing to coordinate a private jet to pick her up and referencing a copy of Rummler's passport.

幾週後，電子郵件顯示愛潑斯坦似乎在協調私人飛機去接她，並提到一份拉姆勒的護照副本。

This trip appears to have fallen through, though, with Rummer writing two days later, there was, quote, still too much risk in the air.

不過，這次行程似乎沒有成行，拉姆勒兩天後寫道，空中仍然有「太多風險」。

Later that year, a topic of the island actually came up again in messages between the two.

隔年稍晚，島嶼的話題再次出現在兩人之間的訊息中。

After Hurricane Irma damaged the island, Rummler mused traveling there to help Epstein clean up, writing, you know how much I like physical labor.

在颶風 Irma 損壞了島嶼後，拉姆勒曾考慮前往協助愛潑斯坦清理，寫道：「妳知道我多喜歡體力勞動。」

It's unclear whether Rummler ever visited the island and she has denied ever going there.

目前還不清楚拉姆勒是否曾到訪該島，她本人也否認曾去過。

Okay, so what is she saying about these emails then?

好的，那她對這些電子郵件有什麼說法呢？

So, Aaron, Jennifer Connelly, Rummler's spokesperson, declined to answer some of the detailed questions from CNN, but

Rummler has done nothing wrong and has nothing to hide.

Nothing in the record suggests otherwise.

紀錄中沒有任何跡象顯示有其他情況。

Jeffrey Epstein was a man of a thousand faces.

傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦是個千面人。

Ms. Rummeler only saw the one he put on to win people over and gain credibility and acceptance.

拉姆勒女士只看到了他為了贏得人心、獲得信任和認同而展現的那一面。

his denials of any wrongdoing other than what he had pled guilty to years prior to Ms.

他否認了任何不法行為，除了他幾年前向女士認罪的那些之外。

Romer has been clear and consistent from the outset.

羅默女士從一開始就立場清晰且一致。

她是透過擔任刑事辯護律師的職務認識他的，曾與他共用客戶，從他那裡獲得介紹，而且

在那個專業的場閤中，兩人關係友好。

At times, Epstein sought informal advice and she provided feedback based on her understanding at the time, without any formal involvement.

有時，愛潑斯坦會尋求非正式的建議，而她則根據當時的理解提供回饋，並沒有任何正式的參與。

Rummler has deep sympathy for those harmed by Epstein, and

對愛潑斯坦的受害者深感同情，

if she knew then what she knows now, she never would have dealt with him.

如果她早知道現在所知道的一切，她絕對不會和他有任何瓜葛。

Erin all right, Andrew Kaczynski from K File with more incredible reporting on the story.

好的，我是 K File 的安德魯·卡奇辛斯基，帶來更多關於這則新聞的驚人報導。

Joining me right now is Gretchen Carlson, the co founder of Lift Our Voices nonprofit that works to end mechanisms that prevent survivors of sexual assault and harassment from being able to speak out publicly has been a very important voice in this conversation through and through.

現在加入我們的是 Gretchen Carlson，她是 Lift Our Voices 非營利組織的共同創辦人，該組織致力於終止阻礙性侵和性騷擾倖存者公開發聲的機制，她一直是這場對話中非常重要的聲音。

So you see this Kathy Rumler announcing this resignation.

所以妳看到了凱西·拉姆勒宣佈辭職。

This is really the first real fallout, I think we could say, or consequence that has happened in the United States from the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

我認為，這真的是我們可以看到的、從傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦檔案發布後，在美國發生的第一個真正後果或影響。

What it says to me is that this is all about power, right?

這告訴我，這一切都跟權力有關，對吧？

And that it doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman or a Republican or a Democrat or an independent.

而且不管你是男人還是女人，是共和黨人還是民主黨人，或是獨立人士，都無所謂。

And especially when you're involved in this level of power.

尤其當你身處在這種權力層級的時候。

I don't think we should be surprised to see women who are on the Democratic side or otherwise being the people that are going to fall down from this.

我認為我們不該驚訝看到，來自民主黨陣營或其他方面的女性，會是是以而垮臺的人。

Now whether or not she did anything illegal is not what the question here is.

現在，她有沒有做任何違法的事情，這不是這裡的問題。

The question is that she continued an association with a known child sex trafficker and she received gifts in return.

問題是她持續與一個已知的兒童性交易犯有往來，並且她也是以收受了禮物。

And you know, so this is very questionable that somebody should be as high up as she is at Goldman Sachs.

你知道，所以這讓人非常質疑，為什麼有人在高盛能身居高位。
