I think that is something we should take up with the State Attorney's Office once
this is a done deal. Another way we may be able to do this is through the local
police detective who investigated the case. He may be given an opportunity to
speak if he asks for it. I will find out about that.

Dear Roy and Jack:
I have been reviewing the deferred prosecution agreement and wanted to remind you
that the agreement states: "Epstein shall provide to the U.S. Attorney's Office
copies of all proposed agreements with the State Attorney's Office prior to
entering into those agreements." Please provide me with any proposed agreements
at your earliest opportunity, and also please provide me with the date and time
of the change of plea.
Thank you.

IM Victim Notification with edit.wpd
Hi
-- I made one small change in the acknowledgment paragraph, so that it
says the letter accurately sets forth the agreement with the Office regarding the
identification and notification of victims. I don't want him to think that all
of the other terms and conditions went "poof."
Also, during my obsession last night I thought, if Ken S. really wants to "bury
the hatchet" he can start by sending a letter to OPR making clear that no member
of the U.S. Attorney's Office committed any misconduct in connection with the
investigation and prosecution of 7E. If he wants to add, "and I admit that I am
a liar, liar, pants on fire," that would be gravy.

Hi Bil— Sorry. I have an indictment going tomorrow so I haven't had a chance to work on the notice yet, but,
yes, I planned to use the 12/19 language. I am going to start working on that right now.
As to filing the indictment under seal with the state court, I really think this is walking too close to a 61
violation, and since the state judges up hem don't like us too-much, Judge McSorley would probably order it
unsealed which would cause huge problems, both in terms of Rule 61 and because the public reaction will be —
if the US had the evidence to prosecute all of these counts, which is he skating with 18 months?
I haven't heard anything from Roy or anyone else. Let me think about ways other than contacting the State
Attorney's Office to accomplish our goals.

a Procedure
(USAFLS)
Hi all — I just spoke with II= She said that it varies from judge to judge, and Judge McSorley can vary
from day to day, but since Epstein is pleading guilty (as opposed to no contest), there should be a written plea
agreement and a full plea colloquy that goes through all of the terms of the plea agreement and a factual proffer
that the defendant has to agree to. She said that, after the rest of the colloquy is finished, the judge asks the
prosecutor to state the factual basis, and the prosecutor then reads the factual proffer into the record. After it is
read, the judge asks the defendant is he did the things recited in the proffer and/or if he agrees that the State
could prove those facts.
She said that the length and detail of the factual proffer varies from prosecutor to prosecutor and thought that
Lanna was less detailed than most.
I will try to send you a proposed factual proffer later this afternoon.

Let's talk when that decision is made.
We will not be interviewing Ellin New York. Her attorney gave a copy of the grand jury subpoena to
Epstein's lawyers. They, in turn, promptly sent it on to Washington complaining, yet again, about me. So, I do
not want to do an interview with him present, and we will have to put her in the grand jury.
Given that, let's take the New York section out of the indictment so we can present the indictment Tuesday

to wait on the rest of the interviews until we hear what

orry I got you into
this.
On another, ironic, note. Today, Epstein's lawyers are filing motions to stay the four federal lawsuits against
Epstein, under 18 USC 3509(k), which states: "If, at any time that a cause of action for recovery of
compensation for damage or injury to the person of a child exists, a criminal action is pending which arises out
of the same occurrence and in which the chili is the victim, the civil action shall be stayed until the end of all
phases of the criminal action and any mention of the civil action during the criminal proceeding is prohibited."
I guess it saves me the trouble of filing the motion after we indict.
And, for the record, I still haven't met Bert 0., and he is neither illaw partner" nor his "law school

FYI. Gil and I have finished our review. Even if we were to substitute our
judgment for yours, we believe that this case is one that is appropriately in
federal court.
We also see nothing in the conduct of the USAO that gives us any
reason to doubt that the case is being handled professionally. We briefed the
DAG on it yesterday and he agrees.
The attached late submission throws a slight wrinkle into this, but I think we
can still satisfy your timetable. I have asked Starr and Lefkowitz for an
electronic version of whatever he is going to send, to be sent this morning. I
am going to schedule a telephone conference for this afternoon or this evening to

Hi
- I talked with
about communicating the substance of our conversation with Roy Black to Barry
to avoid the miscommunication that the defense loves to do. What do you think of this?
Dear Barry:
I just wanted to let you know that
and I spoke with Roy Black yesterday regarding the Epstein case. Roy
asked whether there was a way to resolve the federal and state litigation simultaneously and mentioned your
desire to wrap up the case before you retired. We informed him that the Office's position is that if Epstein
promptly abides by the terms of the signed non-prosecution agreement, we will end our investigation. If Mr.
Epstein chooses to go forward with a different plea in the State, that is his prerogative, but we will consider it a
breach of the non-prosecution agreement and will proceed accordingly.
The terms of the agreement call for Mr. Epstein to plead guilty to the state indictment and also to a state charge
that requires sex offender registration, specifically the charge of procuring minors to engage in prostitution, at
least 18 months imprisonment, and an agreement that the victims can pursue damages claims as though Mr.
Epstein had been convicted of the federal offenses. Our agreement does not address probationary periods
following the term of incarceration. Those arc statutorily set on the federal side, so we have left that issue to the
defense to negotiate with you.
If you have any questions, please let me know.

Hi all —
and I just spoke with Barry Krischer. He began with his usual complaint about us not
communicating with him. I explained that it was the defense who were blocking the channels of
communication.
He then told us that the current deal he has worked out with Jack Goldberger is 60 days in the County Jail, 2
years community confinement, and 3 years probation. He says that Epstein has agreed to plead to "attempted
lewd conduct," which, Barry says, will require registration. We asked Barry to send us the proposed
Information so I can look to see whether, in fact, registration will be required. It also sounds like it will not
involve a child sex offense.
I told Barry that the defense had told us that Barry objected to Epstein's plea to the procurement charge and to
his having to register as a sex offender. Barry said that the testimony in the grand jury would support the
procurement charge and that they have never discussed sex offender registration.
Apparently Jack Goldberger told Barry that the delay was caused by DOJ's internal investigation into my
conduct referring business to my boyfriend's "law partner." We explained that the delay is caused by the
defense appealing our decisions throughout the Justice Department.
He also said that Jack Goldberger had shown him a letter from MI Acosta about having to plead in two weeks.
He asked
and Ito get back to him after we review the Information to tell him if it is okay to go ahead
with the plea deal.
Strangely enough, I haven't heard from Roy Black.
I will let you know when we receive the Information.

John,
Epstein is facing trial on a felony charge of solicitation of prostitution. This does not
resemble the charges that Epstein agreed to plead guilty to in the September 24th Agreement
nor what he would face federally. That case is set for trial on Monday July 7.
If we are given the go ahead from the DAG's office, we would give Epstein one final
chance to comply with the September 24th Agreement. In that regard, it would be most
preferable to have a decision by next week. That would give us the opportunity to seek an
indictment on Tuesday July 1“ if Epstein fails to comply with the September 24th Agreement by
Monday June 30th
The reason this timetable is important is to address our concern that Epstein may
continue to keep us in a holding pattern if he pleads to the pending state solicitation of
prostitution charge before a federal indictment is returned. In that scenario, I anticipate
Epstein's counsel raising petit policy issues, thus throwing another possible monkey wrench in
the process. Although I don't believe that the petit policy would be affected, I can imagine
someone calling a timeout until the issue is vetted. That's why I would prefer being able to
seek an indictment before Epstein pleads to the pending charge and after he has repudiated
the September 24th Agreement. Thanks,
a

Epstein question
Hi
I know
is running out to the NAC, so I didn't want to bother him about this now.
Here is my question. We think that one of the victims in New York has had contact with Epstein's counsel, so
the cat is probably out of the bag about our interest in New York. When Epstein signed the Non-Prosecution
A reement we withdrew several subpoenas, including a subpoena of one of Epstein's New York assistants,
a subpoena for the computer equipment that Roy Black's investigator removed from Epstein's
house, and sub oenas to Bear Steams. Can't renew those subpoenas? Bear Stears is about to disappear into JP
Morgan,
we now believe may be a target, rather than a subject (obviously I would need to let her
lawyer know that), and Epstein's motion to quash the computer subpoena was never ruled upon by Judge
Marra, who is on the duty wheel again this month.
Defense counsel will jump up and down and scream, but do we care anymore?

Excellent! Only one typo. At the top of page 13, the sentence that starts "As soon as I became aware of these
allegations," you left out the word "I" and you refer to it as the Office of Professional Regulation rather than
Responsibility.
Also, since you included the self-reports to OPR by you and
you may want to include my self-disclosure
in the paragraph at the middle of page 14 where I discuss the appointment issue.
You also may want to put in a footer reading "Confidential and Privileged — Attorney Work Product" to avoid
possible disclosure to the defense.

Hi sand ■ — I am back. I will be meeting with
this afternoon to go over the latest developments.
I was wiling whether you had received a copy of all of Epstein's submissions to the AAG? I don't want to
bother if we already have everything.
Can you let me know? And have you heard anything about timing?
By the way, I am on the CWECF list for the civil suits against Epstein and Mr. Herman's firm has moved for
entry of default judgment in one of the civil cases. Could be interesting.
Thanks.

RE: Epstein
I just heard from
attorney, Brendan White. He informed me that he is
representing
and that she would not be able to make the June 3rd date and
that she will invoke her 5th amendment right unless she is granted immunity. I
informed him that
was considered a victim/witness but he said that she
would still invoke w/o immunity. SOUNDS like he has been well informed. Anyway
Mr. White advised he had left you a message so I told him I would let the two of
you work out the details. We can meet Monday afternoon and I will fill you in on
the rest. I'll let
Odell and

Hi

I-mail stating that the DAG agreed to meet
with epstein's people. Does this mean that Tuesday is off? I need to let the gj
coordinator know.
Also, I am sure that you remember
I. She was the person whom we initially
classified as a victim until epstein's attorneys complained. Well,
has
just interviewed a girl who was 14 or 15 when she first went to epstein's house
who reports that epstein told her that he had sex with

Hi
. Very intereting. Is she coming down on her own dime? If she wants us
to pay we have to set up the travel. Can you figure that out and if she is
showing up this tuesday call
atkinson to reserve grand jury time. Ask to
put us last in case she is willing to do an interview and them we will not bring
her to gj. We may want to video her. Since we aren't indicting on tuesday let's
meet monday afternoon to go over everything. Thanks.

Aaaargh.
The statute of limitations issue is the state statute of limitations. I think joe
says it is two years. The issue is implicated in two ways. First, because of the
state's leniency for the first set of girls, the second set have been presented
only to us for prosecution. If we cannot go forward, then there will be no
prosecution of those crimes. (In response to the argument that joe should just
present them now, we believe that some of the victims are unknown to the defense
and disclosing them further weakens our case by allowing them to depose and
harass those victims.) Second, our "state resolution" of the case requires
epstein to plead to something that hasn't been charged yet so further delay will
allow him to escape one of the terms of the deal he signed several months ago.
(There also is a sol on the private cause of action under 2255 pursuant to which
he must pay damages to the girls. The delay will allow him to escape
responsibility for that term, too.)
Other reasons:
The victims are getting older. Clearly one of epstein's arguments will be that he
did not know they were minors. The older they are when they testify the more
plausible epstein's argument becomes.
The grand jury we are using will expire soon. We have already presented more than
a dozen hours of testimony and the grand jury is invested and wants to indict.
We romised the girls swift justice so they could move on with their lives.
is a perfect example of why this is needed. The delay so far has led many
to reach out to private lawyers which, in turn, let's e argue that they are only
in it for money.

EFTA00180283
Why give him more time? He has had more than a year's delay already for no
reason other than the names of the attorneys he can afford to hire. This is not a
white collar or other non-violent crime. This is a child exploitation crime with
more than 20 known child victims. We are mandated by statute and doj policy to
prosecute those cases vigorously and in a timely fashion - whether the children
were prostitutes or unwilling victims. Why is this case being treated so
differently?
