Instructed to always have $2,000 cash on hand to pay girls $200+ after Epstein's "massage" sessions (EFTA01688916 p.23). After his civil deposition, Rodriguez attempted to sell a 97-page document from Epstein's computer — containing the telephone directory and a list of young women — to an undercover FBI agent for $50,000. Arrested November 2009, convicted of obstruction of justice, and sentenced to 18 months in federal prison (EFTA01657299, HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_011908). He called the notebook "a golden nugget" containing "the names of hundreds of girls who had been abused by Epstein" (HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_010486). Died December 21, 2014 at age 60 from mesothelioma (EFTA00605803). Also testified that Alan Dershowitz visited Epstein's mansion "several times a year in 2004, 2005" (EFTA01139383, EFTA00594390).
