Sent by a private attorney, acting under the auspices of a state Attorney General, it starts by explicitly asking victim counsel to praise and applaud the actions of the AG to the press, ends with an offer of a free vacation in the U.S. Virgin Islands, and in between quickly notes that the state's action will not in fact direct proceeds to victims and offers to exert state pressure on private settlement negotiations. Amazing.

Pfau" Subject: RE: Pate Law Firm - U.S. Virgin Islands - USVI Epstein Estate - Victims Dear Justice Warriors, I write to put many of the Epstein victim attorneys in the same email. Today the USVI filed a civil RICO case against Epstein's Estate. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/15/nmgion/jeffrey-epstein-virgin-islands.html (I'd been pushing this case for the past four months and working on the Complaint as private counsel.) The Virgin Islands Attorney General is very concerned about assisting/helping the victims. She has taken a bold step; way ahead of the Attorney Generals of Florida, New Mexico and New York. (Even more so in that she is an appointed — not elected — AG. And the politics of bringing this lawsuit was tenuous.) I hope all of your will applaud and praise her courage in the media. Now legally our claims are for the Territory, but in settlement the USVI can be a very big help. The VI will stand up for full, fair and open settlements for the victims. There is more than enough assets for all claimants. I cannot imagine any Virgin Islands jury leaving a penny to the Estate. It would be wonderful if we can coordinate joint-strategies / joint-mediations, etc., to help move all Epstein Estate claims to fast resolution. Also, if any of your clients/victims were trafficked to the Virgin Islands, the VI Dept. of Justice investigators would really like to talk to them by phone — if that can be coordinated with your offices. Let's all hopefully work together as a Super/Ober team. Perhaps we can coordinate mediations in the USVI. I used Ken Feinberg on a 9 figure settlement in the VI a few years ago, so he has been down here recently. Further, I'm more than happy to host anyone who wants to make a trip to the USVI beforehand sheerly for recreational purposes. (And I have an extra cabin on a sailing Catamaran charter through the BVI to Anegada Feb 10-15, if anyone and a significant other wants to join. I'm serious on this offer, charter is already paid for). Sincerely, Russell J. Russell B. Pate, Esq. The Pate Law Firm Min (888) 889-1132 Fax EFTA00074244 www.SunLawVl.com EFTA00074245
