Note he has only expressed regret at his association with Epstein, he hasn’t admitted to the allegations from Virgina Giuffre. I’m very very surprised she didn’t insist that he had to do this before accepting the settlement when she previously said that was her aim and monetary compensation was very much of secondary importance.
Perhaps she didn’t relish being questioned on the stand either.

Yes…I thought she was only going to accept a payment if he admitted his guilt
