Carolyn testified in court that it was Giuffre who recruited her into Epstein’s sex ring, which Andrew’s team reportedly thinks could weaken Giuffre’s allegation of rape due to the U.S. civil suit threshold of a “preponderance of the evidence.” The next hearing in Andrew’s case is scheduled for Jan. 4 in New York.
