Subject: Epstein
John,
Epstein is facing trial on a felony charge of solicitation of prostitution. This does not
resemble the charges that Epstein agreed to plead guilty to in the September 24th Agreement
nor what he would face federally. That case is set for trial on Monday July 7.
If we are given the go ahead from the DAG's office, we would give Epstein one final
chance to comply with the September 24th Agreement. In that regard, it would be most
preferable to have a decision by next week. That would give us the opportunity to seek an
indictment on Tuesday July 1“ if Epstein fails to comply with the September 24 th Agreement by
Monday June 30th
The reason this timetable is important is to address our concern that Epstein may
continue to keep us in a holding pattern if he pleads to the pending state solicitation of
prostitution charge before a federal indictment is returned. In that scenario, I anticipate
Epstein's counsel raising petit policy issues, thus throwing another possible monkey wrench in
the process. Although I don't believe that the petit policy would be affected, I can imagine
someone calling a timeout until the issue is vetted. That's why I would prefer being able to
seek an indictment before Epstein pleads to the pending charge and after he has repudiated
the September 24th
Agreement. Thanks,

Subject: Epstein question
Hi I know is running out to the NAC, so I didn't want to bother him about this now.
Here is my question. We think that one of the victims in New York has had contact with Epstein's counsel, so
the cat is probably out of the bag about our interest in New York. When Epstein signed the Non-Prosecution
A reement we withdrew several subpoenas, including a subpoena of one of Epstein's New York assistants,
a subpoena for the computer equipment that Roy Black's investigator removed from Epstein's
house, and sub oenas to Bear Steams. Can't renew those subpoenas? Bear Stears is about to disappear into JP
Morgan, we now believe may be a target, rather than a subject (obviously I would need to let her
lawyer know that), and Epstein's motion to quash the computer subpoena was never ruled upon by Judge
Marra, who is on the duty wheel again this month.
Defense counsel will jump up and down and scream, but do we care anymore?

Excellent! Only one typo. At the top of page 13, the sentence that starts "As soon as I became aware of these
allegations," you left out the word "I" and you refer to it as the Office of Professional Regulation rather than
Responsibility.
Also, since you included the self-reports to OPR by you and you may want to include my self-disclosure
in the paragraph at the middle of page 14 where I discuss the appointment issue.
You also may want to put in a footer reading "Confidential and Privileged — Attorney Work Product" to avoid
possible disclosure to the defense.

that she will invoke her 5th amendment right unless she is granted immunity. I
informed him that was considered a victim/witness but he said that she
would still invoke w/o immunity. SOUNDS like he has been well informed. Anyway
Mr. White advised he had left you a message so I told him I would let the two of

Hi and III. I received I-mail stating that the DAG agreed to meet
with epstein's people. Does this mean that Tuesday is off? I need to let the gj
coordinator know.
Also, I am sure that you remember I. She was the person whom we initially
classified as a victim until epstein's attorneys complained. Well, has
just interviewed a girl who was 14 or 15 when she first went to epstein's house
who reports that epstein told her that he had sex with .( probably
would have been 15 or 16 when this conversation occurred.) The girl also reports
that she told epstein her true age and epstein told her that he doesn't care
about age.
I know that epstein's people will, no doubt, continue to tell the dag and others
that epstein didn't know about the girls' ages so I thought you should know.
Please let me know about tuesday so I don't needlessly spoil sunday.
And, any chance the case was discussed with the ag when he was in town?

who reports that epstein told her that he had sex with= probably
would have been 15 or 16 when this conversation occurred.) The girl also reports
that she told epstein her true age and epstein told her that he doesn't care

I know that epstein's people will, no doubt, continue to tell the dag and others
that epstein didn't know about the girls' ages so I thought you should know.
Please let me know about tuesday so I don't needlessly spoil sunday.

The NY agents made contact with today. She met them at the door with her
attorney's card. (she is connected to a target in another FBI investigation)
I'll explain later. Anyway, she contacted the agent a few minutes ago and sounded
surprised when she was informed it was about Epstein. She switched the
conversation immediately about coming to Grand Jury on Tues. The agent left the
door open to contact her if she decides to talk to her. I think we should let
her travel down here and let and I attempt to interview her prior to
putting her in the GJ. What do you think? I told the NY agent if should
reach out to her again to provide her with my name and informat ion as her contact
once she gets down here. I do not know if she plans on getting her attorney
involved or not. His info is as follows: Diarmuid White of White and White, III

she will reach out to Epstein, so it could get interesting. We have to schedule
time for her in front of GJ. Let me know.

Aaaargh.
The statute of limitations issue is the state statute of limitations. I think joe
says it is two years. The issue is implicated in two ways. First, because of the
state's leniency for the first set of girls, the second set have been presented
only to us for prosecution. If we cannot go forward, then there will be no
prosecution of those crimes. (In response to the argument that joe should just
present them now, we believe that some of the victims are unknown to the defense
and disclosing them further weakens our case by allowing them to depose and
harass those victims.) Second, our "state resolution" of the case requires
epstein to plead to something that hasn't been charged yet so further delay will
allow him to escape one of the terms of the deal he signed several months ago.
(There also is a sol on the private cause of action under 2255 pursuant to which
he must pay damages to the girls. The delay will allow him to escape
responsibility for that term, too.)
Other reasons:
The victims are getting older. Clearly one of epstein's arguments will be that he
did not know they were minors. The older they are when they testify the more
plausible epstein's argument becomes.
The grand jury we are using will expire soon. We have already presented more than
a dozen hours of testimony and the grand jury is invested and wants to indict.
We romised the girls swift justice so they could move on with their lives.
is a perfect example of why this is needed. The delay so far has led many
to reach out to private lawyers which, in turn, let's e argue that they are only
in it for money.

Why give him more time? He has had more than a year's delay already for no
reason other than the names of the attorneys he can afford to hire. This is not a
white collar or other non-violent crime. This is a child exploitation crime with
more than 20 known child victims. We are mandated by statute and doj policy to
prosecute those cases vigorously and in a timely fashion - whether the children
were prostitutes or unwilling victims. Why is this case being treated so
differently?

Hope you are having a Great time and resting up. afraid our days will be

New York is not going well. The Agents are still trying to locate IIIIII (we now
know here last name) but no luck thus far. When we ran the name in TECS,
a IIIIIII dob departed Miami on Jan 28, 2008 for Brazil and has
not returned. We can not connect this with New York so although the age
matches this may not be our gal. There is no record of a IIIIII in
Choicepoint or Accurint matching her description. We'll keep trying.
We have spoken to the parents and a family attorney for but she does not
want to speak with us. The Agents will keep at it this wee in hopes that they
will be able to locate and interview her. I'll email you as soon as I have more
to report.
It appears . is residing in North Carolina now. Her house here is up for
sale. We spoke with her mother and asked her to have contact us.
The subpoenas u left have all been served. We had to redo Verizon's at their
request but they said they could get us the info this week. Negative results at
the storage unit.
Unfortunately not much to report but we will stay at it. Email a time for Sunday
