Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE Document 700 Filed 07/12/22 Page6of6 Alessi is therefore a witness able to authenticate the Government Exhibit 606. Although the manual itself is dated to 2005 on its face, Alessi is expected to testify that the exhibit is largely unchanged from the version he had when he received from the defendant and Epstein. He is therefore a witness with “knowledge that a matter is what it is claimed to be,” which “is sufficient to satisfy [the authentication] standard.” United States v. Gagliardi, 506 F.3d 140, 151 (2d Cw. 2007); see id.
