After the announcement of Epstein’s death on the 10" August 2019, my risk assessment showed that Ghislaine Maxwell was at substantial risk. It was therefore paramount for her safety that we implement certain security protocols, which we did. 6. On the morning of July 2, 2020, my operative/consultant i was providing security and administrative support for Ms. Ghislaine Maxwell at a residence in Bradford, New Hampshire. He had been assigned to Ms. Maxwell since approximately May 2020. I had informed | | that Ms. Maxwell needed security because she was being harassed by the press and had been the target of physical threats by unknown third parties. 7. | was on duty alone on the morning of July 2, 2020. He called me twice after being disturbed at approximately 6:30am. He had heard and noticed a helicopter flying above the general area of the property. He assumed it was members of the press. He telephoned me and informed me of the situation. At this stage, we believed the press had discovered the property. I instructed that Ms. Maxwell be informed and she should be prepared to move into a safe room if any perimeters were breached. 8. At approximately 8:30am, | | noticed and subsequently reported to me that vehicles were coming up the driveway and that he had approached the vehicles to check what was happening. 9. | | again assumed it was members of the press. He reported to me that he called Ms. Maxwell on the radio to alert her that the press was on the grounds and approaching the house. 10. There was an established security protocol in place that Ms. Maxwell was to follow in the event that her security was threatened while she was inside the house. This protocol was communicated to Po when he was assigned to Ms. Maxwell, and he had reviewed it with Ms. Maxwell when he started. DOJ-OGR-00002085
