Alan Dershowitz 1525 Massachusetts Avenue - Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 617-939-6001 Joseph Recarey Detective _ Palm Beach Police Department 345 S. County Road Palm Beach, FL 33480 Re: Epstein matter Dear Detective Recarey: I am sending you this letter in response to the serious concern you raised at our meeting regarding an alleged claim that one of our investigators had misrepresented himself as a police officer and in fact had actually attempted-to impersonate you. As I told you neither I nor my client would ever tolerate any such conduct on the part of our investigators. With that in mind, I immediately began an inquiry of our staff, and believe that the contemporaneous notes taken by our investigator, while attempting to interview ., will provide the necessary explanation for your thoroughly justified consternation. _ It will also, I believe, provide a more troublesome and telling illustration of her character. At our meeting, you may recall, I -also advised you that our investigation had discovered at least one of her web sites and I am enclosing some examples. You will note that she, herself, has chosen to go by the nickname of “pimp juice” and the site goes on to detail, including photos, her apparent fascination with marijuana. This will come as no surprise to you as I’m sure you are already aware of her recent Palm Beach arrest for both possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. The following raw notes were taken by investigators (one who suffers from a quite distinct speech impediment, making, therefore, a truly innocent claim of impersonation virtually impossible). Both of them have many years experience in _conducting defense investigations and debriefing witnesses. They are both well versed in the law and extremely sensitive to any potential allegations of wrongdoing especially from witnesses who may have their own agendas. In this instance, they were instructed to take _____ * “3 statement verbatim because we feared that she, an accomplished drama student, might try to mislead them as successfully as she had misled others. They ‘were instructed to ask detailed questions to further elucidate her previous pronouncements regarding the extreme lengths she'would go to as she put it “to be rich, no, I mean really, really rich”. But as you will read, they never got a chance to ask even a single question, and could not for a moment be thought of, as attempting to misrepresent themselves as police officers. In fact even though, they are both well prepared and seasoned investigators, they were quite shocked at the overwhelming, non-stop barrage of profanity being hurled at them at a furious pace and volume from what initially appeared 07/26/17 Page 51 of 131 Public Records Request No.: 17-295 DOJ-OGR-00030518
