IN RE:
GRAND JURY PROCEEDINGS
SEALED MOTION FOR PERMISSION TO DISCLOSE GRAND JURY MATERIAL
The United States of America, by and through the undersigned Assistant United States
Attorney, hereby moves the Court for permission to disclose certain materials relating to matters
occurring before West Palm Beach Federal Grand Jury # 07-103.
In support thereof, the
Government states:
1.
In September 2006, as part of its investigation named "Operation Leap Year," the
United States served a grand jury subpoena on a witness named
See Exhibit 1 at P-
003734 thru P-003735. Based upon the investigation, Ms.
was identified as a potential
victim of the lead target, Jeffrey Epstein.
2.
After service of the subpoena, Ms.=
retained the services of James Eisenberg,
Esq. to represent her. Jeffrey Epstein paid for that representation.
3.
Mr. Eisenberg communicated to me orally and in writing that Ms.
would
assert her Fifth Amendment privilege if she were forced to appear before the grand jury, and that
the government needed to obtain immunity pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 6001-6003 and a compulsion
order from the Court to avoid the assertion of the privilege. Exhibit 2.
4.
Due to the expiration of the original grand jury, in January 2007, a new grand jury
subpoena was issued on behalf of West Palm Beach Federal Grand Jury #07-103. Exhibit 1 at P-
003738.
EFTA00086377
5.
On January 24, 2007, the undersigned sent a letter to Mr. Eisenberg enclosing the
subpoena and discussing the investigation and grand jury proceeding. Exhibit 1 at P-003736 thru
P-003737.
6.
On February I, 2007, Mr. Eisenberg responded via letter. His letter discusses the
grand jury subpoena, the investigation, and Ms.
likely testimony. Exhibit 1 at P-003732
thru P-003733.
7.
On February 5, 2007, I provided Mr. Eisenberg with two proposed Kastigar letters
that, again, discuss the grand jury's investigation. Exhibit 1 at P-003739 thru P-003743, P-003745.
8.
In response to a complaint from Mr. Eisenberg (see Exhibit 3), I prepared an
"Authorization for Reimbursement of Unusual Expenses of Fact Witnesses" to pay for
Suring
Ms.
grand jury testimony. Exhibit 1 at P-003744.
9.
On February 12, 2007, Mr. Eisenberg sent a letter detailing the reasons for Ms.
refusal to testify without a compulsion order. This letter, again, discusses the grand jury's
investigation and matters occurring before the grand jury. Exhibit 1 at P-003730 thru P-003731.
10.
Based upon Mr. Eisenberg's letter and representations, the U.S. Attorney's Office
applied to the Justice Department for authorization to grant immunity pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§
6001-6003. After receiving that authorization, in April 2007, the United States filed a Sealed
Motion for an Order compelling the testimony of ==
Exhibit 1 at P-003714 thru P-
003721.
11.
On April 16, 2007, the Court granted the government's Sealed Motion in a Sealed
Order. Exhibit 3. Judge Middlebrooks was the judge who empaneled Federal Grand Jury 07-103.
The Sealed Order states, in part, that the "Order shall be SEALED in accordance with Fed. R.
2
EFTA00086378
Crim. P. 6(e)(6), except that a copy of this Order shall be provided to counsel for the United States,
who may disclose the existence of the Order [to a list of persons]. Those persons may review the
Order, but may not retain a copy of the Order, nor may they disclose the existence of the Order to
any others."
12.
In 2008, Ms.
became a petitioner in the matter of Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe
2 v. United States, S.D. Fla. Case No. 08-80736-Civ-Marra ("the Jane Doe suit"). Ms.
was
allowed to proceed, at her request, via the pseudonym "Jane Doe 2" because she was a minor
during the criminal activity committed by Jeffrey Epstein. Ms.
was an adult during all
proceedings related to the grand jury subpoena.
13.
In her suit against the United States, Ms.
avers, in part, that her "right to
confer with the attorney for the Government in the case" and her "right to be treated with fairness
and with respect for the victim's dignity and privacy," 18 U.S.C. § 3771(a)(5), (a)(7), were
violated. I was the "attorney for the Government," although there was no "case" because the U.S.
Attorney's Office never filed charges against Jeffrey Epstein or any other person involved in
criminal activity with Ms.M.
14.
In the Jane Doe suit, U.S. District Judge Kenneth A. Marra allowed limited
discovery. Exhibits 1 and 2 were listed on a privilege log and provided to Judge Marra in camera
for review. The United States asserted that the items should not be produced because they were
governed by Fed. R. Crim. P. 6(e) and included "[d]ocuments under seal pursuant to court order."
Exhibit 4 at DE212-1 pp. 1, 6.
15.
There was extensive litigation regarding the privilege log, including the assertion
of the confidentiality of grand jury materials. Judge Marra agreed with the government's assertion
3
EFTA00086379
that Exhibit I involved matters occurring before the grand jury and ordered that they need not be
produced. Exhibit 5 at pp. 5-10, 26, 28.
16.
In the Jane Doe suit, Ms.
has filed a motion for summary judgment, asserting
that there is no issue of material fact regarding her claim that her rights to confer and to be treated
with respect were violated. In support of that motion, Ms.
filed a Declaration. Exhibit 6.
17.
In the declaration, Ms.
makes a number of assertions, including that "there
could not have been any doubt in anyone's mind .. . that Epstein sexually molested me as a minor";
"I believed that if I told the truth about what happened at Epstein's house, the police
"; "I had been greatly intimidated, which is why I could not be truthful initially
and I wanted to end the threat of the possibility of
"; and "I wanted to assist
the prosecutors in the investigation." Id.
18.
These statements are contradicted by Exhibits 1, 2, and 3, and, accordingly, the
U.S. Attorney's Office now respectfully requests that the Court unseal redacted versions of
Exhibits I, 2, and 3.
19.
This matter relates to issues occurring before the grand jury and, accordingly, is
governed by Fed. R. Crim. P. 6(e). Under that Rule, the "court may authorize disclosure — at a
time, in a manner, and subject to any other conditions that it directs — of a grand-jury matter: (i)
preliminarily to or in connection with a judicial proceeding."
Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e) provides that the traditional rule of grand
jury secrecy may be placed aside under certain circumstances to allow for
disclosure.
Specifically, Rule 6(e)(3)(E)(i) states that a district court "may
authorize disclosure—at a time, in a manner, and subject to any other conditions
that it directs—of a grand jury matter ... preliminary to or in connection with a
judicial proceeding." The Supreme Court has explained that a party seeking
disclosure of grand jury materials must make a showing of a "particularized need"
by demonstrating that (1) the materials are needed to avoid an injustice in another
4
EFTA00086380
proceeding; (2) the need for disclosure is greater than the need for continued
secrecy; and (3) the request is structured to cover only needed materials.
United States v. Moussaoui, 483 F.3d 220, 235 (4th Cir. 2007) (citing Douglas Oil Co. v. Petrol
Stops Northwest, 441 U.S. 211, 222 (1979)).
20.
Portions of Exhibits 1, 2, and 3 are relevant to a judicial proceeding, that is, the
Jane Doe suit. The portions that the U.S. Attorney's Office wishes to disclose are attached hereto
as Exhibit 7. Disclosure of these portions of the documents are necessary to avoid injustice in the
Jane Doe suit, that is, to properly inform Judge Marra that Ms.
did not, in fact, wish to
confer with an attorney for the Government during the relevant time frame and she was treated
with respect by the U.S. Attorney's Office and the investigative team. Given that Jane Doe 2
herself has made these materials relevant to the Jane Doe suit, the need to disclose Exhibit 7
outweighs the need for secrecy, and Exhibit 7, which is a redacted version of Exhibits 1, 2, and 3,
properly limits the disclosure of the grand jury materials only to what is needed.
21.
Prior to filing this Motion, I inquired of Judge Marra's courtroom deputy whether
the motion should be filed with Judge Marra. After speaking with the Clerk's Office, Judge
Marra's courtroom deputy informed me that, because this related to the grand jury, the motion
should be directed to the District Judge on duty. Pursuant to the Court's website, Senior U.S.
District Judge Daniel T. K. Hurley is on duty for the month of May 2017.

EFTA00086381
CONCLUSION
For the foregoing reasons, the United States respectfully requests that it be permitted to
disclose Exhibit 7 and file it in support of its Response to Ms.
summary judgment motion.
The United States further respectfully requests that the Court's Order make clear that, by filing
Exhibits 4, 5, and 6 in support of this motion, it does not seek to have them sealed in the Jane Doe
suit, and that they remain part of the public record in that matter.

Re:
Grand Jury Subpoena for
Dear
As always, it was a pleasure speaking to you the other dilursuant to our telephone conference
I am writing this letter to proffer my concerns for
should she testify without immunity
before a federal grand jury. Therefore, allow me to reiterate that Ms.
will refuse to voluntarily
cooperate with the federal government. She has a good faith basis for her position under the Fifth
Amendment to the United States Constitution.
We, of course, do not live or work in a vacuum. We have read many inflammatory remarks the
Town of Palm Beach Police Chief has made to the media about the state court's handling of the
Jeffrey Epstein investigation. The police chiefs remarks frighten both mysel rand my client. I am
aware that the town police have prepared documents to charge at least one of Mr. Epstein's lady
friends in state court. If they can push to have one lady charged I remain unconvinced that they do
not have the ability or political clout to push to have other ladies such as Ms.=
charged.
The proffered facts that raise my concerns are being provided via this proffer letter. Pursuant to our
telephone conference agreement, this letter and its contents cannot be used against Mr. =.
Ms.=
is not at all certain of dates. She does remember meeting Mr. Epstein about three years
ago. She is not certain of her age. it could have been when she was sixteen. A girlfriend asked her
if she wanted a job giving massages. Ms.=
agreed because she had knowledge of massages
through her mother, who was a masseuse.
Ms. =
went to Mr. Epstein's house via taxi. Ms.
girlfriend instructed Ms.=r that,
if asked, she had to tell Mr. Epstein that she
was eighteen years old. The friend was
nineteen years old and
looked old for her age, so passing for eighteen was not a problem. At
Case No. 08-80736-CV-MARRA
P-003730
EFTA00086400
the home Ms.=
met Mr. Epstein and later „Tim a massage. The friend had told Ms.
to give the message topless. Mr. Epstein told
that if she were at all uncomfortable being
topless, not to do it and it was not a requirement of employment as a masseuse. Ms.
never
touched Mr. Epstein in a sexual way and Mr. is.
never
touched
Ms.
/et
all.
At
one
point,
Mr. Epstein did ask Ms.
her age. Ms.
insisted that she was eighteen years old.
Ms. =
continued to see Mr. Epstein over time and massages were given in a similar fashion.
She was later asked if her friends wanted to work in a similar way and she asked some girls who did
give Mr. Epstein massages. Ms.=r was never asked to bring girls of any age to Mr. Epstein's
home. When she did have her friends come over, she instructed all of them that if asked, they insist
that they were eighteen years old. She is not certain at all of any of these girls' real ages.
In summary, our concern is that if the government believes that Mr. Epstein comm itted some federal
offense, then Ms.=
could he considered a co-conspirator. We believe no crime was committed.
The Fifth Amendment was not intended to protect the guilty, however. It was enacted to protect
citizens who fear prosecution notwithstanding their innocence. Our fear of any prosecution,
especiallyjltt ligh f the Town police chiefs public remarks, is clearly in good faith.
Sincer

like Ms. M: and, under these circumstances, appears to be a waste of time at best and, in
her mind, personal harassment.
2. Rest assured that there is no conflict of interest in my representation of Ms. I=
In this
case I have always been asked and always will exercise independent judgment to follow my client's
independent will. The remainder of your questions as to this matter arc really none of the
Government's business.
3. 1 will share with you that one of the reasons for our firm position that Ms.
will
invoke her Fifth Amendment right and choose not to voluntarily cooperate with the Government is
our concern that the Government is not exercising independent judgment in this case.
The history of this case has been in the newspapers. The case is being prosecuted in State court.
Despite the state court prosecution, the Town of Palm Beach Police Chief went on what can only be

described as a public rampage in the newspaper when the case was not prosecuted to his liking that
reminded me of a small child having a public temper tantrum. In my thirty years of experience, T
have never seen a law enforcement officer like this publicly make what appeared to be a political
ease in the newspaper for a prosecution and publicly criticize anyone who got in his way, including
the elected State Attorney. This resulted in a federal investigation on a topic no one remembers the
Federal Government ever being interested in prosecuting before. Although I am certain that you
personally have not had your decision-making process compromised, the appearance that your office
is being influenced by the Town of Palm Beach Police Chief's agenda is very real. Under these
circumstances I don't see how any lawyer could advise any client to voluntarily cooperate. Of
special concern is that the Town of Palm Beach Police have promoted prosecuting at least one of the
girls who allegedly gave massages.
One final thought. My client and my fear that Ms.
could be prosecuted is enhanced by the
demand for the personal appearance made in your letter. Your initial Kastiger letter fell far short
of granting the functional equivalent of DOJ immunity. Several months ago I was given the distinct
impression through our conversations that you were going to obtain DOJ immunity for Ms.
Now the government is changing course for no apparent reason. This leads to speculation that the
only reason for the nuriabout is that prosecution in either state or federal court is being considered
by someone.

Re:

Dear Jim:
A new grand jury has been tided
and I have enclosed a new subpoena for=
MI. As 1 mentioned earlier, Ms
is not a target of this investigation and the United
States seeks her testimony solely as a victim/winless. During our last conversation regarding
Ms.
, you indicated that she was unwilling to speak with us pursuant to a Kastigar
letter and that she also was unwilling to speak with the grand jury and intends to invoke the
Fifth Amendment if questioned. Please confer with her to confirm whether this remains her
position. If it is, please advise in writing. Even if Ms.=
is inclined to invoke her Fifth
Amendment rights, she must still appear pursuant to the subpoena so that I may ask her
questions that would not require the invocation of the Fifth Amendment. If she still invokes,
I intend to move to compel her answers. If you or your client is unavailable on February 6,
2007, please let me know of another Tuesday when you are available.
I also am concerned about a potential conflict of interest in your representation of Ms.
In case of future litigation regarding this issue, please provide me with information
regarding who is paying (directly or indirectly) for your services on behalf of Ms. MI, the
scope of your representation and whether you are taking direction on this matter from
anyone other than Ms. =.
If any formal or informal joint defense agreements exist,
whether in writing or otherwise, please provide a copy of such agreements. If the agreement
is purely oral, please provide a written summary of its terms.

I am writing to clarify the ground rules for the interview with your client,
("your client"), to occur February
, 2007.
As I mentioned earlier, Ms.
is not a target or subject of this investigation, but
instead is being interviewed solely as a victim/witness. However, to address your concern
about criminal exposure, if your client complies with every provision of this agreement, then
the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida ("this Office") will
treat all statements made by your client during the interview as statements made pursuant to
Rule 11(0 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. This is not a grant of immunity,
which can be given only with approval of the Justice Department, but protects your client
from having the statements made by her during the interview from being used against her
directly. To guard against any misunderstandings concerning the interview of your client,
this letter sets forth the terms of this agreement.
Your client agrees to be fully interviewed, that is, to provide information concerning
your client's knowledge of, and participation in criminal activity, including but not limited
to the procurement of prostitutes. The protection of this letter applies to an interview that
will be conducted by this Office, Special Agents of the Federal Bureau of investigation, and
any other federal law enforcement agency this Office may require. Under this agreement,
no information disclosed by your client during the interview will be offered in evidence
against her in any criminal or civil proceeding, provided that your client complies with this
agreement and that the information your client furnishes is truthful, complete, and accurate.
I f, however, your client gives materially false, incomplete, or misleading information,

then this Office may use such information in any matter or proceeding and your client is
subject to prosecution for perjury, obstruction of justice, and making false statements to
government agencies. Any such prosecution may be based upon information provided by
your client during the course of the interview, and such information, including your client's
statements, will be admissible against your client in any grand jury or other proceeding.
The government also may use statements made by your client in the interview and all
evidence derived directly or indirectly therefrom for the purpose of impeachment or
cross-examination if she testifies at any trial or hearing, and/or in any rebuttal case against
your client in a criminal trial in which she is a defendant or a witness. These provisions are
necessary to ensure that your client does not make or offer any false representation or
statement in any proceeding or to a government agency or commit perjury during any
testimony.
Your client further agrees that attorneys for the United States may be present at the
interview, and agrees not to seek disqualification of any such govermnent attorney from any
proceeding or trial because of their participation at the interview.
The entire agreement between the United States and your client is set forth in this
letter. No additional promises, agreements, or conditions have been entered into and none
will be entered into unless in writing and signed by all parties.
If the foregoing accurately reflects the understanding and agreement between this
Office and your client, it is requested that you and your client execute this letter as provided
below.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
CASE NO.:08-CV-80736-KAM
JANE DOE 1 and JANE DOE 2,
Petitioners,
vs.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Respondent.
OPINION AND ORDER
This cause is before the Court on various discovery related matters. In response to
Petitioners' first requests for production, the respondent Government asserted various privileges
in three privilege logs and submitted nearly 15,000 pages of documents for in camera inspection.
(DEs 212-1, 216-1, 329-1). Petitioners object to every privilege asserted. (DE 265).
Intervenor Jeffrey Epstein supports the Government's assertion that certain grand jury
materials should remain secret, and he moves to prevent disclosure of those materials. (DE 263).
Petitioners filed a response. (DE 271).
Finally, the Government objects to the relevancy of several of Petitioners' requests for
production. (DE 260). Petitioners responded (DE 266) and filed a supporting supplement (DEs
267, 268).
The Court has conducted its in camera review of materials submitted, has carefully
considered the materials and the parties' submissions, and is fully advised in the premises.

Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 2 of 51
I. Background
This is a case against the United States for allegedly violating the Crime Victims' Rights
Act (CVRA), 18 U.S.C. § 3771, by failing to involve Petitioners (and other similarly situated
victims of Intervenor Epstein) in the process that ultimately led to a federal non-prosecution
agreement between the Government and Epstein. (DE I). The parties and intervenors debate the
discoverability of documents that show exactly what led to the non-prosecution agreement.
In March 2011, Petitioners moved "to allow use of correspondence between the U.S.
Attorney's Office and counsel for Epstein" to prove their CVRA case. (DE 51 at 1). Petitioners
argued that the correspondence was relevant as it "shows that the U.S. Attorney's Office was
aware of its statutory obligation to inform the victims of the non-prosecution agreement," and
that they should be allowed to use it "as it sheds important light on the events surrounding the
non-prosecution agreement, which are central to the victims' arguments that the U.S. Attorney's
Office violated their rights." (Id. at 5, 6). The Court granted Petitioners' request and ordered the
Government to "(p)roduce responsive documents in response to all outstanding requests for
production of documents encompassing any documentary material exchanged by or between the
federal government and persons or entities outside the federal government (including without
limitation all correspondence generated by or between the federal government and Epstein's
attorneys)" (DE 190 at 2). The Court also ordered the Government to produce all responsive
documents "other than communications generated between the federal government and outside
persons or entities." (K.). If the Government claimed privilege over any of these documents, the
Court ordered the Government to (1) file "a privilege log clearly identifying each document(' by
author(s), addressee(s), recipients(s), date, and general subject matter and such other identifying
2
EFTA00086446
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 3 of 51
data," and (2) to "submit all responsive documents withheld on claim of privilege to the court for
in camera inspection." (Id.).
The Government produced 1,357 pages of documents to Petitioners, filed three privilege
logs, and submitted nearly 15,000 pages to the Court for in camera inspection. (See DE 257 at
2). The Government asserts that the documents submitted for in camera inspection are privileged
for reasons such as the privacy rights of non-party victims, grand jury secrecy under Federal Rule
of Criminal Procedure 6(e),' and the attorney-client, work product, deliberative process, and
investigative privileges. (DEs 212-1; 216-1, 329-1). Moreover, with the Court's leave (DE 257
at 4), the Government objects to the relevancy of several of Petitioners' requests for production
(DE 260).
H. Discussion
District courts have "broad discretion in shaping the scope of discovery under
Fed.R.Civ.P. 26(b)." Williams v. City of Dothan, 745 F.2d 1406, 1415 (11th Cir. 1984). The
Court will first address matters related to whether a privilege protects the submitted documents
from discovery and then turn to whether any otherwise non-privileged documents are relevant to
Petitioners' CVRA case. Specific rulings as to the submitted documents are found in the Table
appended to this Opinion and Order.
A.
Privilege Assertions
1. Challenge to the Sufficiency of Government's Privilege Assertions
Petitioners raise several general objections to the Government's privilege logs. They
In a previous ruling, the Court noted that Plaintiffs formally requested the release of
grand jury materials, but the Court reserved "ruling as to whether the materials in question are
protected from disclosure by Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e)." (DE 257 at 3).
3
EFTA00086447
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLED Docket 07/06/2015 Page 4 of 51
argue that the Government's logs are inadequate because they do not "clearly identify" the
documents as ordered by this Court. (DE 265 at 2; DE 190 at 2). The Court has reviewed the
Government's privilege logs and the documents that they describe, and the Court finds that the
logs—describing nearly 15,000 pages of documents— are adequate to facilitate a meaningful in
camera inspection and assessment of the asserted privileges. To the extent inadequacies may be
present, the Court finds that judicial resources would not be best spent by requiring the
Government to submit a revised, more detailed log. See N.L.R.B. v. Jackson Hosp. Corp. 257
F.R.D. 302, 307 (D.D.C. 2009) (court may remedy inadequate privilege log by in
camera inspection of described documents or permitting party another chance to submit a more
detailed log).
Petitioners also argue that the Government has failed to provide the factual underpinnings
necessary to hold that certain privileges apply, specifically the deliberative process privilege,
investigative privilege, work product privilege, and attorney—client privilege. Discussed in more
detail below, the Court finds it unnecessary to consider whether the deliberative process and
investigative privilege apply in this case as other, stronger, privileges are at play, or, as discussed
further below, many of the documents over which the deliberative process and investigative
privileges are asserted are irrelevant to this proceeding. Regarding the work product and
attorney—client privileges, and the Court has considered the materials submitted and the
Government's arguments, and finds that the Government has submitted sufficient evidence to
evaluate its claims of privilege. (See DE 238-1) (discussing documents prepared by the United
States Attorney's Office in anticipation of possible Epstein prosecution); see Stern v. O-Quinn,
253 F.R.D. 663, 675 (S.D. Fla. 2008) (Rosenbaum, Mag. J.) (relying on allegations within
4
EFTA00086448
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 5 of 51
pleading to decide application of work product privilege). The Court will therefore evaluate each
claim of privilege as it relates to the documents submitted.
2. Grand Jury Secrecy
The Government asserts that many of the documents identified in its logs are protected by
Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e), which governs the secrecy of grand jury proceedings.
(See DE 212-I; DE 216-1 at 4, 6). These documents include subpoenas issued and documents
received and prepared during the course of grand jury investigations into whether Epstein
committed indictable federal offenses. (DE 212-1 at 1). Petitioners argue that the Court can (and
should) authorize disclosure in this case. (DE 265 at 17).
"It has long been a policy of the law that grand jury proceedings be kept secret . . . . The
English rule of grand jury secrecy has been incorporated into our federal common law and
remains an integral part of our criminal justice system." United States v. Aisenberg 358 F.3d
1327, 1346 (11th Cir. 2004) (internal quotation marks omitted). "Rule 6(e) of the Federal Rules
of Criminal Procedure codifies this secrecy principle and prohibits the disclosure of grand jury
material except in the limited circumstances provided for in Rule 6(e)(3)." Id. One such
exception is Rule (6)(e)(3)(E)(i), which permits a court to authorize disclosure "preliminary to or
in connection with a judicial proceeding." Fed. R. Crim. P. 6(e)(3)(E)(i). Additionally, a court
has inherent authority to disclose grand jury materials beyond the literal wording of Rule 6(e)(3)
in "exceptional circumstances." Aisenberg, 358 F.3d at 1347. "The district court has
`substantial discretion' in determining whether grand jury materials should be released." Id. at
1349 (quoting Douglas Oil Co. v. Petrol Stops N.W., 441 U.S. 211, 223 (1979)).
Whether proceeding under Rule 6(e)(3) or the court's inherent authority, there are well
5
EFTA00086449
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 6 of 51
settled guidelines for determining when grand jury secrecy may be broken. Id. at 1347.
Specifically, the parties seeking disclosure must show:
(1) "that the material they seek is needed to avoid a possible
injustice in another judicial proceeding";
(2) "that the need for disclosure is greater than the need for
continued secrecy"; and
(3) "that their request is structured to cover only material so
needed."
Id. at 1348 (citing Douglas Oil Co.,N.W., 441 U.S. 211, 222 (1979)). These demanding
standards apply even after the grand jury has concluded its operations. Id. The burden of
demonstrating that the need for disclosure outweighs the need for secrecy rests on the party
seeking disclosure. Id. "In order to carry this burden, the party seeking disclosure of grand jury
material must show a compelling and particularized need for disclosure." Id. That is, "the
private party must show circumstances had created certain difficulties peculiar to this case, which
could be alleviated by access to specific grand jury materials, without doing disproportionate
harm to the salutary purpose of secrecy embodied in the grand jury process." Id. at 1348-49
(internal quotation marks omitted) (emphasis in original).
Accordingly, the grand jury proceedings at issue are "presumptively secret," see In re
Subpoena to Testify, 864 F.2d 1559, 1562 (11th Cir. 1989), and Petitioners have the heavy
burden of overcoming this presumption! Petitioners argue that they have met their burden in
their response to Epstein's motion to uphold grand jury secrecy. (DE 271 at 3).
2 Because the burden lies with Petitioners, Petitioners' argument that disclosure is
appropriate because the Government "has not attempted to defend its invocation of grand jury
secrecy" is of no moment. (DE 278 at 10).
6
EFTA00086450
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 7 of 51
Regarding whether (1) grand jury materials are "needed to avoid a possible injustice" in
this case, Petitioners argue that "an injustice may occur" if the materials are not disclosed to
them. (DE 217 at 4). They argue that the possibility for injustice exists because this Court has
already recognized that aspects of this case "must be considered in the historical factual context
of the entire interface between Epstein, the relevant prosecutorial authorities and the federal
offense victims—including an assessment of the allegation of a deliberate conspiracy between
Epstein and the federal prosecutors to keep the victims in the dark on the pendency of
negotiations between Epstein and the federal authorities." (ILI.) (quoting the Court's Order at DE
189 at 12 n.6). They also argue that injustice may result without the grand jury materials because
the "critical starting point for the victims' case" is proof that the Government had an "extremely
strong case against Epstein." (lik).
The Court concludes that Petitioners have not met their heavy burden of demonstrating a
compelling and particularized need for the disclosure of grand jury materials pertaining to the
investigation of Epstein. Materials that the Government presented in secrecy to a grand jury
relative to a case against Epstein are not part of the "interface" that occurred between Epstein,
prosecuting authorities, and the victims. As the Court has already explained, the harm in this
case did not arise out of the Government's failure to secure a grand jury indictment against
Epstein. (DE 189 at 10) ("The victim's CVRA injury is not the government's failure to
prosecute Epstein federally—an end within the sole control of the government."). Rather, the
harm in this case arose from the Government's alleged failure to confer adequately with
Petitioners before deciding to abandon a federal case against Epstein. (t1.). The Court has
reviewed the portions of the submitted documents to which grand jury secrecy is invoked, and it
7
EFTA00086451
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 8 of 51
finds that none of the grand jury materials produced has a bearing on the Government's alleged
failure to confer with Petitioners before electing to forego a federal prosecution.
The Court also concludes that Petitioner's asserted need to prove that the Government
had an "extremely strong case against Epstein" does not justify the disclosure of secret grand jury
materials. Petitioners seek to use the grand jury materials as the means to an improper end—a
judicial determination that the Government made an inexplicably poor decision when it decided
not to prosecute Epstein.
"(T]he Government retains `broad discretion' as to whom to prosecute." Wayte v. United
States, 470 U.S. 598, 607 (1985). The CVRA incorporates this principle, providing that
Irdothing in this chapter shall be construed to impair the prosecutorial discretion" of federal
prosecutors. 18 U.S.C. § 3771(d)(6). Courts tread lightly where prosecutorial discretion is
concerned because "the decision to prosecute is particularly ill-suited to judicial review." Wayte,
470 U.S. at 607; see also 35 Geo. L.J. Ann. Rev. Crim. Proc. 203, 203 n.648 (2006). "Such
factors as the strength of the case, the prosecution's general deterrence value, the Government's
enforcement priorities, and the case's relationship to the Government's overall enforcement plan
are not readily susceptible to the kind of analysis the courts are competent to undertake." Wayte,
470 U.S. at 607 (emphasis added); see also Town of Newton v. Rumery, 480 U.S. 386, 396
(1987) (courts normally must defer to prosecutorial decisions about whom to prosecute because,
"[lin addition to assessing the strength and importance of a case, prosecutors also must consider
other tangible and intangible factors, such as government enforcement priorities.") (emphasis
added).
Petitioners asserted strategy of demonstrating that the Government had an improper
8
EFTA00086452
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 9 of 51
motive to hide its "extremely strong" case asks the Court to decide (or assume) that the
Government did in fact have an "extremely strong" case against Epstein. As Petitioners point
out, the Government has not admitted that it believed it had a "strong case" for prosecution. (DE
266 at 8)? In light of this refusal to admit the strength of the case, Petitioners seek grand jury
materials to present to the Court the case for prosecuting Epstein. (14, at 9). Basically,
Petitioners ask the Court to interject itself in place of the Government and adjudicate whether the
Government erred, and thus had a motive for hiding its error, when it decided not to prosecute
Epstein. As the Supreme Court has articulated, "courts are [not] competent to undertake" the
kind of analysis necessary to assess the "strength of the case" for or against any particular
prosecution. Wayte, 470 U.S. at 607; see also United States v. Armstrong, 517 U.S. 456, 465
(1996) (Judicial deference to prosecutors' decisions "rests in part on an assessment of the relative
competence of prosecutors and courts."). Nor is the Court competent to undertake an analysis of
how strong the Government perceived its case against Epstein at the time it decided not to
prosecute. Stated plainly, whether the Government had a "strong" case against Epstein was for
the Government to decide in its sole discretion; the Court will not foray into matters related to
assessing the strength of the Government's case against Epstein.
3 In response to Petitioners Request for Admission regarding whether the Government
had a case for "federal prosecution against Epstein for many federal sex offenses," (DE 266 at 8),
the Government responded:
The government admits that the FBI and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the
Southern District of Florida ("USAO") conducted an investigation into Jeffrey
Epstein ("Epstein") and developed evidence and information in contemplation of
a potential federal prosecution against Epstein for many federal sex offenses.
Except as otherwise admitted above, the government denies Request No. I.
(DE 213-1 at 1).
9
EFTA00086453
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 10 of 51
Accordingly, because the Court will not—and cannot—endeavor to assess the strength of
the Government's case against Epstein at the time it decided to enter into the non-prosecution
agreement, the Court concludes that Petitioners have not shown that they will suffer an injustice
in this case if they are denied access to materials that the Government presented to grand juries
during their investigation into whether Epstein committed federal crimes. Likewise, Petitioners
have not shown that their need for these materials is compelling or particularized to their asserted
interests under the CVRA. Therefore, the Court will deny Petitioners access to the materials over
which grand jury secrecy applies under Fed. R. Crim. P. 6(e).
3. Work Product Doctrine
The Government asserts that many of the documents submitted are protected by the
attorney work-product privilege. (DE 212-1 at 1-21; DE 216-1 at 1-14). These documents
include draft correspondences and indictments, as well as attorney research and handwritten
notes. (See, e.g. DE 212-1 at 2, 17). Petitioners argue that the work-product privilege is
unavailable for a number of reasons. (DE 265 at 6, 8, 14-16).
The work-product doctrine traces its roots to the Supreme Court's recognition that "it is
essential that a lawyer work with a certain degree of privacy, free from unnecessary intrusion by
opposing parties and their counsel." Hickman v. Taylor, 329 U.S. 495, 510 (1947). The
privilege is codified at Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(3):
Ordinarily, a party may not discover documents and tangible things
that are prepared in anticipation of litigation or for trial by or for
another party or its representative (including the other party's
attorney, consultant, surety, indemnitor, insurer, or agent). But,
subject to Rule 26(6)(4), those materials may be discovered if:
(i) they are otherwise discoverable under Rule 26(b)(1); and
10
EFTA00086454
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 11 of 51
(ii) the party shows that it has substantial need for the materials to
prepare its case and cannot, without undue hardship, obtain their
substantial equivalent by other means.
Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(3)(A). Although fact-based work product may be disclosed on a showing
of "substantial need," the court must avoid "disclosure of the mental impressions, conclusions,
opinions, or legal theories of a party's attorney or other representative concerning the litigation."
Id. 26(b)(3)(B). Such "opinion work product enjoys a nearly absolute immunity and can be
discovered only in very rare and extraordinary circumstances." Cox v. Adm'r U.S. Steel &
Carnegie, 17 F.3d 1386, 1422 (11th Cir. 1994). In the context of government attorneys, the
"work-product privilege applies to . . . discussions between prosecutors and investigating agents,
both state and federal." United States v. Zingsheim, 384 F.3d 867, 872 (7th Cir. 2004) (citing
FTC v. Grolier Inc., 462 U.S. 19 (1983)).
The work-product privilege extends only to documents that an attorney prepares "in
anticipation of litigation." Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(3)(A). Petitioners argue that the work-product
privilege does not apply to the submitted documents because they were not prepared "in
anticipation of [the instant] CVRA litigation." (DE 265 at 7). Retreating somewhat from this
initial assertion, Petitioners argue that "[m]any of the documents at issue here were not prepared
in anticipation of litigation, and certainly not in anticipation of the litigation about the Crime
Victims' Rights Act." (EL).
Although "[s]ome older cases took the position that the work-product immunity applied
only to documents prepared in direct relation to the case at bar," 8 Wright, Miller & Marcus, Fed.
Prac. & Fed. P. § 2024, p. 518 (3d ed. 2010), more recent cases "have generally found that
documents produced in anticipation of litigating one case remain protected in a subsequent case fl
11
EFTA00086455
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 12 of 51
if they were created by or for a party to the subsequent litigation," Underwriters Ins. Co. v.
Atlanta Gas Light Co., 248 F.R.D. 663, 668 (N.D. Ga. 2008). These cases rely on the Supreme
Court's dicta in Federal Trade Communication v. Grolier, Inc., that "the literal language of [Rule
26(b)(3)] protects materials prepared for ay litigation or trial as long as they were prepared by or
for a party to the subsequent litigation." 462 U.S. 19, 25 (1983) (emphasis in original); see also 8
Wright, Miller & Marcus, Fed. Prac. & Fed. P. § 2024, p. 519 n.47 (3d ed. 2010) (collecting
cases). Similarly, the work-product doctrine applies regardless of whether litigation actually
ensued, so long as it can be fairly said that the document was prepared or obtained because of the
prospect of litigation. See Kent Corp. v. N.L.R.B., 530 F.2d 612, 623 (5th Cir. 1976) (holding
that agency documents produced when deciding "to prosecute or not to prosecute" were protected
work product, regardless of "whether litigation actually ensured").
After its in camera review, the Court finds that the majority of work-product documents
identified by the Government were prepared or obtained by the Government because of the
reasonable prospect of litigating a criminal case against Epstein. (DE 212-1 at 1-21; DE 216-1 at
1-12; DE 329-I at 1-18).4 This CVRA litigation and the underlying criminal investigation are
integrally related, and the work-product doctrine protects from discovery materials prepared in
anticipation of either in the instant litigation.
° The Government asserts that the work-product doctrine applies to documents prepared
by attorneys in the Department of Justice's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) in
response to Petitioners' counsel's request for an investigation into the Government's handling of
the Epstein case. (DE 216-1 at 12-14). Although these documents were prepared by
Government attorneys, the Government has not demonstrated that they were prepared "in
anticipation of litigation or for trial" so as to be protected work product. Fed. R. Civ. P.
26(b)(3)(A). As discussed in the next section, however, the Court has thoroughly reviewed these
documents and finds that they are not relevant, or likely to lead to materials relevant to the instant
CVRA litigation. (See infra Sect. B.3.)

Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 13 of 51
Petitioners argue that the work-product doctrine "does not apply" in this case for two
additional reasons. First, they argue that the doctrine does not apply in a case brought by crime
victims against the federal prosecutors who were bound to protect their rights under the CVRA.
(DE 265 at 13). Second, they argue that the doctrine does not apply because the conduct of those
prosecutors is a "central issue" in this case. (a. at 15). The Courts finds these arguments
unavailing.
First, Petitioners argue that the "work product doctrine does not apply to claims advanced
by crime victims that federal prosecutors have violated their public responsibilities under the
Crime Victims' Rights Act." 0,1. at 14). Because the CVRA compels prosecutors to make their
"best efforts" to notify victims of their rights, Petitioners argue that the Government cannot
withhold documents that "might allow them to protect those very rights." (lcl at 15). By way of
illustration, Petitioners offer the case of In re Grand Jury Subpoena Duces Tecum, where the
Eighth Circuit broadly stated that "the general duty of public service calls upon government
employees and agencies to favor disclosure over concealment." 112 F.3d 910, 920 (8th Cir.
1997).
A closer inspection of In re Grand Jury Subpoena reveals that it does not stand for the
categorical rule that the work product doctrine is inapplicable in cases against public prosecutors.
The statement on which Petitioners rely was made in the context of determining whether to
recognize a previously undefined privilege: "whether an entity of the federal government may use
the attorney-client privilege to avoid complying with a subpoena by a federal grand jury." Id. at
915 (emphasis added); see also id. at 921 ("We believe the strong public interest in honest
government and in exposing wrongdoing by public officials would be ill-served by recognition of
13
EFTA00086457
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 14 of 51
a governmental attorney-client privilege applicable in criminal proceedings inquiring into the
actions of public officials."). The Eighth Circuit did not purport to espouse a broad-ranging rule
that defeated existing, well-defined privileges such as the work product doctrine. This is
important, as the Supreme Court has recognized that the "work-product doctrine is distinct from
and broader than the attorney-client privilege." United States v. Nobles, 422 U.S. 225, 238
(1975) (citing Hickman, 329 U.S. at 508). In fact, the Eighth Circuit went on to consider the
application of the work product doctrine and concluded that it did not apply because the materials
in question were not prepared in "anticipation of litigation." 112 F.3d at 924-25. It did not find
the work product doctrine wholly inapplicable based on a goal of public disclosure.
In light of the well-established bounds of the work product doctrine—which grants public
prosecutors "near absolute immunity" over their mental impressions in subsequent civil
litigation—the Court finds that the CVRA's mandate that prosecutors make their "best efforts" to
accord crime victims their rights does not create a "very rare and extraordinary circumstance" in
which discovery of protected work product would be allowed. See Cox, 17 F.3d at 1422.
Second, Petitioners argue that the work product doctrine does not apply because the
conduct of the Government's attorneys is a "central issue" in this case. (a. at 15). Some lower
courts have held that disclosure of opinion work product is "justified principally where the
material is directly at issue, particularly if the lawyer or law firm is a party to the litigation." 8
Wright, Miller & Marcus, Fed. Prac. & Fed. P. § 2026, p. 567 & n.19 (3d ed. 2010) (collecting
cases). To satisfy this showing, however, the party seeking disclosure of opinion work product
must make "a far stronger showing of necessity and unavailability by other means" than is
needed to justify discovery of fact-based work product. Id. (quoting Upjohn Co. v. United States
14
EFTA00086458
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 15 of 51
449 U.S. 383, 402 (1981)); see also In re Doe, 662 F.2d 1073, 1080 (4th Cir. 1981) (even under
crime-fraud exception to work product doctrine, party "must show a greater need for the opinion
work product material than was necessary in order to obtain the fact work product material").
The Court finds that Petitioners have not made the strong showing of necessity and
unavailability required to disclose the mental impressions of counsel that might be at issue in this
case. (See DE 265 at 16). Discovery of opinion work product is most often granted in bad-faith
settlement cases, where "mental impressions [of the underlying counsel] are the pivotal issue in
the current litigation." Holmgren v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., 976 F.2d 573, 577 (9th Cir.
1992). Other than by analogizing to bad-faith actions, Petitioners have not demonstrated how
delving in to the "mental impressions" of Government attorneys is pivotal to proving their
allegations that the Government failed to accord them their rights under the CVRA. (See DE 265
at 15). Insofar as they seek to demonstrate that the attorneys' mental impressions should have led
them to conclude that prosecution was the best course, such inquiry cannot be allowed for
reasons discussed above. Elsewhere, Petitioners assert that they can prove their case by
demonstrating a "conspiracy between the Government and defense counsel to deliberately
conceal vital information from the victims." (DE 266 at 7). Because of the availability of this
method of proof, Petitioners lack a compelling need to gain access to internal Government work
product evidencing its internal mental impressions regarding the Epstein matter.
Finally, Petitioners argue that any work-product protection available in this case should
be negated because the Government's communications facilitated "misconduct" by depriving the
victims of their rights under the CVRA. (DE 265 at 6). The Eleventh Circuit has recognized that
"[t]he crime-fraud exception presents one of the rare and extraordinary circumstances in which
15
EFTA00086459
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 16 of 51
opinion work product is discoverable." Cox, 17 F.3d at 1422. The Eleventh Circuit has not
indicated whether this "rare and extraordinary" exception extends to instances of "misconduct"
in the form of violating a civil rights statute, such as the CVRA. Even so, the Court finds that
such alleged "misconduct" does not rise to the level of conduct that triggers an exception to the
work product doctrine. See, e.g., In re Sealed Case, 754 F.2d 395, 401 (D.C. Cir. 1985)
(exception to attorney-client privilege applied where alleged wrongdoing included "perjured
testimony, document destruction, and similar misconduct"); United States v. Myers, 593 F.3d
338, 347 n.14 (4th Cir. 2010) (noting that exception applied where litigant "defrauded" public
defender by submitting false invoices). Petitioners' allegation that the Government failed to
accord them their full CVRA rights—the allegation at the heart of this case—does not rise to the
level of conduct sufficiently serious enough to displace the work product privilege.
Moreover, Petitioners fail to set forth prima facie evidence that the Government in fact
committed "misconduct" in this case. To invoke the crime-fraud exception, the party seeking
disclosure must (1) make a prima facie showing that the material was produced in the
commission of criminal or fraudulent conduct and (2) that it was produced "in furtherance of the
criminal or fraudulent activity or was closely related to it." Cox 17 F.3d at 1416; see also id. at
1422 (noting that same "two-part test" applies in context of both attorney client privilege and
work product doctrine). Petitioners argue that the fact that the OPR "collected information about
possible improper behavior" establishes a prima facie case of Government misconduct. (DE 265
at 7). An investigation into wrongdoing does not presuppose that wrongdoing took place. After
its in camera review, the Court finds that Petitioners have not made a prima facie showing of
serious misconduct sufficient to negate the protections of the work product doctrine.
16
EFTA00086460
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 17 of 51
Materials constituting the opinion work product of the Government's attorneys shall
therefore be withheld from Petitioners. Certain documents that the Court considers fact-based
work product may be produced subject to relevancy considerations discussed below.
B.
Relevancy of Requests for Production
In addition to asserting privileges, the Government responds to Petitioners' first request
for production by arguing that many of the materials requested are not relevant to the instant
CVRA litigation. (DE 260).
Rule 26 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure defines the general scope of discovery as
follows:
Parties may obtain discovery regarding any nonprivileged matter
that is relevant to any party's claim or defense—including the
existence, description, nature, custody, condition, and location of
any documents or other tangible things and the identity and
location of persons who know of any discoverable matter. . . .
Relevant information need not be admissible at the trial if the
discovery appears reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of
admissible evidence.
Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(6)(1). "Discovery should ordinarily be allowed unless it is clear that the
information sought has no possible bearing on the claims and defenses of the parties or otherwise
on the subject matter of the action." Milinazzo v. State Farm Ins. Co., 247 F.R.D. 691, 695-96
(S.D. Fla. 2007) (citing Dunkin' Donuts, Inc. v. Mary's Donuts. Inc., No. 01-0392, 2001 WL
34079319, at •2 (S.D. Fla. Nov. 1, 2001)).
1. Request No. 1—the FBI File on the Epstein Matter and Indictment Material
In their first request for production, Petitioners seek the file generated by the FBI in the
Epstein matter, including all documents "collected as part of its case against and/or investigation
17
EFTA00086461
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 18 of 51
of Epstein." (DE 260 at 2). Petitioners also request that the Government produce all prosecution
memoranda and draft indictments prepared in the case. (151). The Government argues that such
materials regarding its decision to prosecute Epstein are irrelevant to the issue of whether they
denied Petitioners their rights under the CVRA. (ILL). Petitioners disagree. They argue that
"materials going to the strength of the Government's case against Epstein" are a "vital part" of
their case against the Government. (DE at 266 at 8). "Those materials would directly
demonstrate that the Government had an extremely strong case against Epstein, giving the
Government a motive for needing to keep the victims in the dark about the plea deal." (D. The
Court concludes that discovery should not extend to these materials.
First, the Court finds that all prosecution memoranda, research into indictable offenses,
and draft indictments are protected opinion work product. These documents were created by the
Government in anticipation of a possible prosecution of Epstein and evince the Government's
internal mental impressions, legal theories, and strategy concerning the issues presented by a
possible prosecution. As discussed above, Petitioners have not demonstrated "rare and
extraordinary circumstances" justifying an exception to this well-established protection.
Second, the Court finds that the information in the FBI's file regarding its investigation
into Epstein has no possible bearing on the CVRA claim that is the subject matter of this action.
Petitioners assert that the relevancy of this material is to "directly demonstrate that the
Government had an extremely strong case against Epstein." (DE 266 at 8). As discussed above,
this Court is ill-equipped to decide that the Government did in fact have a "strong case" for
prosecution and made a hard-to-explain decision to forego a federal prosecution in lieu of a state
plea. Rather, the inquiry for the Court is whether the Government afforded Petitioners their
18
EFTA00086462
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 19 of 51
rights under the CVRA, which does not turn on its decision whether to initiate a federal
prosecution. See 18 U.S.C. § 3771(d)(6). Materials going to the "strength" of the Government's
case for prosecution—and whether the Government had a motive to hide an embarrassing
misstep in failing to prosecute—have no relevance to that inquiry.
2. Request No. 10—Materials Proving that the FBI was Mislead about Likelihood
of Prosecution
Request number 10 requests "[alit documents, correspondence, and other information
relating to discussions between the U.S. Attorney's Office and the FBI concerning the status of
the investigation and the plea discussions with Epstein, as well as what kind of charges would
appropriately be filed against Epstein," and "(41 documents, correspondence, and other
information relating to the U.S. Attorney's Office's representations to the FBI and any other state
or local law enforcement agency about how this case was being handled." (DE 274 at 5). The
Government argues that communications it had with the FBI are irrelevant because the "decision
on whether to prosecute belongs to the United States Attorney." (DE 260 at 3). Petitioners argue
that these communications between the United States Attorney's Office and the FBI lie at the
"heart of this case" because they will prove that the Government mislead the FBI about the
progress of the Epstein case, and the FBI in turn mislead the victims. (DE 266 at 9). The Court
concludes that discovery should not extend to these materials.
First, the vast majority of documents responsive to this request—communications
between the U.S. Attorney's Office and the FBI—are protected from disclosure under either
principles of grand jury secrecy, the opinion work product doctrine, or both. (See Table).
Second, the only portion of FBI materials which the Court has not found to be protected
19
EFTA00086463
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 20 of 51
by either grand jury secrecy or work product protection—the file folder labeled "(Victims)
Additional 302's," P-012624-012653 (DE 212-1 at 21)—is not responsive to the instant request
as it does not contain communications from the United States Attorney's Office to the FBI,
which was then in a position to relay communications to the victims. Rather, these materials
contain fact-based summaries of statements provided by victims to interviewing FBI agents.
They are not relevant to this proceeding.
3. Request No. 16—Materials Proving that Prosecutors had Improper Relationships
with Persons Close to Epstein
Request number 16 seeks materials demonstrating that persons inside the United States
Attorney's Office had improper relationships with persons close to Epstein. (DE 260 at 3).
Petitioners argue that these documents "show[] that a prosecutor working inside the U.S.
Attorney's Office when the deal was being arranged left the office shortly thereafter and began
representing persons close to Epstein (such as his pilots)." (DE 266 at 11). They argue that such
materials are relevant to their CVRA case because "if one of the prosecutors in the Office was
not working for the best interests of the United States, but rather for those of Epstein, that would
be clear evidence of motive to intentionally keep the victims in the dark." (a. at 11). The Court
concludes that production of such documents should not issue.
After its in camera review, the Court finds that the documents discussing the issue of
whether an improper relationship existed between a former prosecutor and Epstein's co-
conspirators are not relevant to this proceeding. The issue of whether a prosecutor violated
ethical canons by representing persons with close ties to Epstein after his retirement from the
United States Attorney's Office does not bear on the issue of whether the Government violated
20
EFTA00086464
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 21 of 51
Petitioners' CVRA rights during its negotiations with Epstein. The only impropriety to which
Petitioners point occurred after the prosecutor's departure from the Government. The
OPR—which opened an inquiry into the matter at Petitioners' counsel's request—closed their
inquiry into the matter by noting that the OPR has jurisdiction to investigate allegations of
misconduct involving only current Department of Justice attorneys. (See P-013937;5 see also P-
0013946). The OPR did not investigate the matter further, and it issued no factual
determinations on whether a conflict existed before the prosecutor's departure. Any OPR
correspondence regarding this inquiry that is not otherwise privileged is irrelevant to this CVRA
litigation. (See Table at P-013944, P-013945).
In the same vein, correspondence between the United States Attorney's Office and the
OPR regarding self-reporting of conflicts alleged by Epstein's defense counsel are irrelevant to
this proceeding.' (DE 212-1 at 21-22); see Table at P-013227-013247).
4. Request No. 18—Documents Concerning Recusal of the United States Attorney's
Office for the Southern District of Florida
Request number 18 seeks information about why the United States Attorney's Office for
the Southern District of Florida was "'conflicted out' of handing various issues related to the
Epstein case." (DE 266 at 11). Specifically, it requests "all documents, correspondence, and
other information regarding the potential conflicts of interest that the Justice Department
discussed or determined existed for the USAO SDFL, as well as any referral that was made to
5 This is a draft letter addressed to Petitioners' counsel from an OPR attorney. The Court
assumes Plaintiff's counsel received the final version of this letter explaining the OPR's reasons
for closing its investigation.
Ironically, Epstein's counsel raised conflict-of-interest concerns because they believed
that certain prosecutors were too close to persons associated with the victims.
21
EFTA00086465
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 22 of 51
Main Justice or to any other District, including any documents that were transmitted to any other
District regarding the conflict and regarding what was to be investigated." (DE 260 at 4).
Petitioners argue that such materials are relevant because they "show why the victims did not
receive proper notifications about the non-prosecution agreement that the [United States
Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida] negotiated with Epstein." (DE 266 at II).
The Court concludes that the materials are not relevant in that regard.
First, the Court fords that the responsive documents are shielded by governmental
attorney-client privilege. The responsive documents are internal Department of Justice
correspondences between attorneys for the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern
District of Florida and the Executive Office of United States Attorneys. (DE 212-1 at 22-23);
see Table at P-013248-13278). One of the Executive Office's functions is to "[p]rovide general
legal interpretations, opinions, and advice to United States Attorneys in areas of recusals."
Offices of the United States Attorneys, United States Department of Justice,
http://www.justice.gov/usao/eousahnission-and-functions (last visited June 19, 2015). The
internal documents that Petitioners seek relate to the provision of legal advice by the Executive
Office to the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida regarding how
to proceed in the Epstein matter given the initiation of CVRA litigation by Petitioners. These
communications are solely between attorneys within the United States Department of Justice.
The communications do not constitute the commission of crime, fraud, or misconduct, but rather
simply advise how to proceed given that allegations of misconduct have been made, i.e.,
allegations that the Government violated the victims' CVRA rights.
Moreover, the documents related to the recusal determination are not relevant to matters
22
EFTA00086466
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 330 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/06/2015 Page 23 of 51
concerning whether the Government violated Petitioners' CVRA rights several years before.
Petitioners speculate that the reason that the Southern District recused "may have to do with the
Office's treatment of the victims." (DE 266 at 12). The Court has reviewed the recussal
materials, and they do not indicate that the Office had to step away from the Epstein matter
because of its handling of victims' notifications, but rather because of the perceived conflict that
would exist if the Office continued to investigate Epstein after the institution of CVRA litigation
by Petitioners. The recusal materials have no relevancy to anything that occurred prior to the
institution of the instant litigation by Petitioners.
5. Request No. 19—Materials Related to Defense's Assault on Prosecution
In request number 19, Petitioners seek all documents supporting, or contradicting, a
statement made by a United States Attorney to the media that Epstein launched "a yearlong
assault on the prosecution and theprosecutors." (DE 260 at 4). After its in camera review, the
Court has not identified any documents that are responsive to this request that are not otherwise
protected opinion work product. No production under this request is necessary.
6. Request No. 25—Initial Disclosures under FRCP 26(a)(1)
Finally, Petitioners request that the Government comply with its obligation to serve initial
disclosures under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(a)(1). Although Petitioners have already
served their Rule 26(a)(1) disclosures (DE 266 at 13), and although this Court has repeatedly
held that the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure "govern the general course of this proceeding," the
Government maintains that the rule governing initial disclosures in civil litigation does not apply
to it in this case. (DE 274 at 8). The Court disagrees. The Government shall serve its Rule
26(a)(1) disclosures on Petitioners within 14 days of this Opinion and Order.

C.
Other Considerations
Before concluding, the Court finds it necessary to address certain aspects of the
Government's privilege logs.
As mentioned, the Court previously ordered the Government to provide Petitioners all
"documentary material exchanged by or between the federal government and persons or entities
outside the federal government." (DE 190 at 2). Petitioners state that they "have now obtained
the full text of correspondence between the defense attorneys and the prosecutors." (DE 298 at
6). The documents produced for in camera review contain correspondence between the
Government and counsel for both Epstein and Petitioners. Some of the documents were
•
inadvertently marked as privileged; some of the documents bear handwritten notes of
Government attorneys, and some are part of communication chains made up of both internal and
external communications. The Table at the end of this order indicates instances where such
communications appear. The Court requests that the Government certify within 14 days that
Petitioners have been provided with all external communications.
Additionally, the Court has identified several documents that are asserted "work product,"
but which are nothing more than factual complications of information regarding victim
identification. The Court finds that Petitioners have a compelling need to know which
individuals the Government considered to be victims or potential victims at the time it negotiated
the non-prosecution agreement. As indicated in the Table, the Government should confer with
Petitioners regarding the names of the individuals identified in these documents. If Petitioners
have not been previously provided with these names, then Petitioners should have production of
the indicated documents. The parties should stipulate to an appropriate protective order to
24
EFTA00086468

protect the victims' identity.
III. Conclusion
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the Government shall
produce documents consistent with the following Table. It is further ORDERED AND
ADJUDGED that Intervenor Epstein's Motion for the Court to Protect From Disclosure Grand
Jury Materials (DE 263) is GRANTED, and Petitioners' Motion to Seal (DE 267) is DENIED in
light of this Court's Order at DE 326; DE 268 is hereby UNSEALED.
DONE AND ORDERED in chambers at West Palm Beach, Palm Beach County,

DECLARATION OF
1. My name is
• and I was born in
2. I was paid by Jeffrey Epstein to interact sexually with him as a minor
on dozens of occasions in his mansion in Palm Beach, Florida from
around 2002 to 2005, and also to bring him other girls who were my
approximate age for the same purposes. I understand that evidence
collected from Epstein's home showed conclusively that I was there
as a minor, along with many other underage girls. Given how many
girls Epstein was sexually abusing, there could not have been any
doubt in anyone's mind that had access to the testimonial and other
evidence that Epstein sexually molested me as a minor (and many
others).
3. My son was very young when the FBI came to speak with me the first
time. I did not know what to do and I was scared. I called Epstein,
who told me not to worry and that he would hire an attorney for me. I
believed that if I told the truth about what happened at Epstein's
house, the policel
That made me really
scared.
4. Through the attorney that Jeffrey Epstein obtained for me, it was
arranged for me to give a statement to the prosecutor investigating
Epstein.
5. While with the attorney Epstein obtained for me I gave a statement to
the prosecutor that was favorable to Epstein. The prosecutors knew
the truth because of the volume of evidence they had, and they
continued to recognize me as a victim of Epstein's crimes.
6. I had been greatly intimidated, which is why I could not be truthful
initiall and I wanted to end the threat of the possibility of
My involvement with Epstein from a very young age
was a deep, dark secret and Epstein told me to keep it a secret. I knew
that I was expected to keep it a secret.
7. The more I thought about what was going on, the more I realized that
what Epstein had done to both me and my friends was wrong and that
anyone who was not very wealthy would be punished. At this time, I
EFTA00086496
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 361-27 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/10/2016 Page 3 of 4
wanted Epstein held accountable the same way anyone else would be.
I spoke about this with one of m friends around May 2008. I then
called an attorney,
around June 2008, understanding
that he was hired to get the prosecutors to talk to us and hear the truth
from me. That was especially important to me because I was finally
represented by someone other than Epstein's attorney and wanted to
talk to the prosecutors about everything I knew.
8. The prosecutors had a lot of information revealing the truth about the
situation at Epstein's house. I had lot of information, too, because I
was one of the young teenagers who had brought many other young
teenagers to Epstein for the purpose of getting paid by Epstein. I
wanted to assist the prosecutors in the investigation. I hired Mr.
to let them know that I was cooperative and ready to tell
them all of the helpful information I had. I understood that Mr.
did that.
9. I authorized Mr.
to join me in the lawsuit against the U.S.
Attorney's Office to enforce my rights and to try to get me my chance
to confer with the prosecutors before Mr. Epstein took a plea or the
case was resolved in any way. I just wanted to be treated fairly in the
process.
10. When Epstein pled guilty to a state crime at the end of June 2008,
no one notified me that his plea had anything to do with my case
against him. I did not know, for example, that this plea had some
connection to a crime he committed against me particularly. In fact,
at this young age, I had no idea what was going on and nobody tried
to explain it to me.
11. In Jul 2008
•
•
I learned for the first time at that hearing that the
prosecutors worked out some sort of secret deal with Epstein that
might block his prosecution for crimes against me. It also appeared
that there was a lot of continued communication between Epstein and
the U.S. Attorney's Office. I was really upset that the U.S.
Attorney's Office seemed like it would not talk with me or the other
victims about what was going on. It was easier to get them to talk to
me when I was represented by Epstein's attorney.
EFTA00086497
Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 361-27 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/10/2016 Page 4 of 4
12. I wanted to see this secret deal that the Government had with
Epstein, but they would not give it to me
Later, the
other victims and I finally got to see the secret deal after the judge
forced the prosecutors to show it to us.
13. I understand that I did not initially help the investigation by
speaking on Epstein's behalf untruthfully. But I was intimidated and
had good reason
— reasons that I think
everyone who was talking to me could obviously see. Also, the
agents and attorneys obviously had a lot of evidence that provided
proof of what Epstein had actually done. Epstein was still supporting
me, providing me a lawyer and in my mind protecting me, so I was in
a position where I felt I had to say certain things. And Epstein
expected me to say those things.
14. Once I wanted to cooperate and tried to cooperate, I was never
given the opportunity to confer with prosecutors from the time they
were informed by my attorney that I was a cooperating witness. I was
never told about the secret deal until after it was already concluded. I
would have had my attorney object if I had been given the chance.
15. I don't feel like I was treated fairly in this process. And I know
Epstein got a really good plea deal because he is rich and powerful.
That doesn't seem fair either.

Therefore, allow me to reiterate that

Amendment to the United States Constitution.
We, of coins; do not live or work in a vacuum. We have read many inflammatory remarks the
Town of Palm Beath Police Chief has made to the media about the state court's handling of the
Jeffrey Epstein investigation. The police chiefs remarks frighten both myself and my client I am
aware that the own police have prepared documents to charge at least one of Mr. Epstein's lady
friends. in state court. If they can push to have one lady charged I remain unconvinced that they do
not have the ability or political clout to push to have other ladies such as Ms
charged.
The proffered facts that raise my concerns are being provided via this proftbr letter. Pursuant to our
telephone conference agreement, this letter and its contents cannot be used against Mr. NM
MMIlis not at all certain of dates. She does remember meeting Mr. Epstein about three years
ago. She is not certain of her age, it could have been when she was sixteen, A girlfriend asked her

that if she were at all uncomfortable being

never

all. At one point,
Mr. Epstein did ask Ms. !Cher age. Ms. Minsisted that she was eighteen years old.

She was later asked If her friend

give Mr. Epstein massages. M
never asked to bring girls of any age to Mr. Epstein's
home. When she did have her friends come over, she instructed all of them that if asked, they insist
that they were eighteen years old. She is not certain at all of any of these girls' real ages.
In summary, our concern is that if the government believes that Mr. Epstein committed some federal
offense, then Ms
could he considered a co-conspirator. We believe no crime was committed..
The Fifth Amendment was not intended to protect the guilty, however, It was enacted to protect
citizens who fear prosecution notwithstanding their innocence. Our fear of any prosecution,
especially ' ligh i f the Town police chiefs public remarks, is clearly in good faith.

described as a public rampage in the newspaper when the case was not prosecuted to his liking that
reminded me of a small child having a public temper tantrum. In my thirty years of experience, I
have never seen a law enforcement officer like this publicly make what appeared to be a political
case in the newspaper for a prosecution and publicly criticize anyone who got in his way, including
the elected State Attorney. This resulted in a federal investigation on a topic no one remembers the
Federal Government ever being interested in prosecuting before. Although I am certain that you
personally have not had your decision-making process compromised, the appearance that your office
is being influenced by the Town of Palm Beach Police Chiefs agenda is very real. Under these
circumstances.! don't see bow any lawyer could advise any client to voluntarily cooperate. Of
special concern is that the Town of Palm Beach Police have promoted prosecuting at least one of the
girls who allegedly gave massages.
One final thought. My client and my fear that Ms.

demand for the personal appearance made in your letter. Your initial Kastiger letter. fell far short
of granting the functional equivalent of DOJ immunity. Several months ago I was given the dis

treat all statements made by your client during the interview as statements made pursuant to
Rule 11(0 of the Fedora' Rules of Criminal Procedure. This is not a grant of immunity,
which can be given only with approval of the Justice Department, but protects your client
from having the statements made by her during the interview from being used against her
directly. To guard against any misunderstandings concerning the interview of your client,
this letter sets forth the terms of this agreement. .

your client in a criminal trial in which she is a defendant or a witness. These provisions are
necessary to ensure that your client does not make or offer any false representation or
statement in any proceeding or to a government agency or commit perjury during any

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
NORTHERN (WEST PALM BEACH) DIVISION
FGJ NO. 07-103 (WPB)
IN RE:
GRAND JURY PROCEEDINGS
SEALED ORDER
This matter comes before the Court on the United States' Sealed Motion for Permission to
Disclose Grand Jury Material. The Court has considered the Motion and attachments thereto, and
finds that the United States has shown a "particularized need" for the limited disclosure of
materials related to matters occurring before the Grand Jury. The Court further finds that the
United States has shown that: (1) the materials are needed to avoid an injustice in another
proceeding, that is, Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2 v. United States, S.D. Fla. Case No. 08-80736-
Civ-Marra; (2) the need for disclosure is greater than the need for continued secrecy; and (3) the
request is structured to cover only needed materials.
Accordingly, the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida may
disclose Exhibit 7 to its Motion for Permission to Disclose Grand Jury Material, and file those in
the public portion of the Court file in S.D. Fla. Case No. 08-80736-Civ-Marra.
Furthermore, Exhibits 4, 5, and 6 to the government's Sealed Motion for Permission to
Disclose Grand Jury Material are already part of the public portion of the Court file in S.D. Fla.
EFTA00086516
Case No. 08-80736-Civ-Marra. The government has not sought to remove them from the public
portion of that Court file, and they remain part of the public record in that matter.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DONE AND ORDERED in chambers this
day of May, 2017, at West Palm Beach,
Florida.
