Introduction A. Affiant 1. I have been a Task Force Officer with the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBP") since 2017. As such, I am a "federal law enforcement officer" within the meaning of Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 41(a)(2)(C), that is, a government agent engaged in enforcing the criminal laws and duly authorized by the Attorney General to request a search warrant. I am also a detective with the New York Police Department ("NYPD") and have been employed by the NYPD for approximately thirteen years. I am currently assigned to investigate violations of criminal law relating to the'sexual exploitation of children as part of an FBI Task Force. I have gained expertise in this area through classroom training and daily work related to these types of investigations. As part of my responsibilities, I have been involved in the investigation of sex trafficking cases, and have participated in the execution of search warrants for electronic devices and electronic storage media. 2. I make this Affidavit in support of an application pursuant to Rule 41 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure for a wan-ant to search certain electronic devices, compact disks and related electronic media specified below (the "Subject Items") for the items and information 1 2017.08.02 EFTA00247153 described in Attachment A. This affidavit is based upon my personal knowledge; my review of documents and other evidence; my conversations with other law enforcement personnel; and my training, experience and advice received concerning the use of computers in criminal activity and the forensic analysis of electronically stored information ("ESP'). Because this affidavit is being submitted for the limited purpose of establishing probable cause, it does not include all the facts that I have learned during the course of my investigation. Where the contents of documents and the actions, statements, and conversations of others are reported herein, they are reported in substance and in part, except where otherwise indicated. B. The Subject Items 3. The. Subject Items are particularly described as follows': a. Two blue binders with CDs, which were seized by Special Agent M , _from a blue suitcase on or about July 11, 2019 ("Subject Item-1"). b. Three blue binders with various CDs and one clear binder with a green spine with various CDs, all four of which were seized by Special Agent _horn a black suitcase on or about July 11, 2019 ("Subject Item-2"). 4. The Subject Items are all presently located in the Southern District of New York. C. The Target Subjects and the Subject Offenses 5. For the reasons detailed below, I believe that there is probable cause to believe that the Subject Device contains evidence, fruits, and instrumentalities of violations of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1591 (sex trafficking of minors), and 371 (sex trafficking conspiracy) (the To the extent that the Subject Items contain any removable storage media, including CDs, the description of each such item encompasses those other media. 2 2017.08.02 EFTA00247154 S. "Subject Offenses"). The Target Subjects of this investigation are known and unknown co- conspirators of JEFFREY EPSTEIN, including but not limited tici II. Probable Cause A. Probable Cause Regarding the Commission of the Subject Offenses 6. On or about July 2, 2019, a grand jury in this District returned an Indictment charging JEFFREY EPSTEIN with the Subject Offenses. A copy of the Indictment is attached hereto as Exhibit A and is incorporated by reference. EPSTEIN was arrested pursuant to the Indictment on or about July.6, 2019, and had been detained pending trial at the Metropolitan Correctional Center ("MCC") in New York, New York. 7. On or about August 10, 2019, the Bureau of Prisons confirmed that JEFFREY EPSTEIN had been found unresponsive in his cell at the MCC that morning, and was pronounced dead shortly thereafter. 8. Notwithstanding EPSTEIN's death, the sex trafficking investigation that led to his indictment remains ongoing. In particular, Count One of the Indictment alleged that EPSTEIN conspired with others to traffic minors, and further identified three individuals who worked for EPSTEIN (identified in Exhibit A as "Employee-1", "Employee-2," and "Employee-3") and facilitated EPSTEIN's at?use of minor girls by, among other things, arranging victims' encounters with EPSTEIN and paying victims after these encounters. The individual identified in Exhibit A is "Employee-2" is , a Target Subject of this investigation. 9. On or about November 28, 2018, the Miami Herald began publishing a series of articles relating to the defendant, his sexual misconduct with minors, and a previous investigation into his conduct in Florida from in or about 2005 through 2008. The article included information about role in EPSTEIN's sexual abuse of minors. Based on my participation in this investigation, I have learned that bank records obtained by the Government appear to show 2017.08.02 EFTA00247155 that just days later, on or about December 3, 2018, the defendant wired $250,000 from a trust account to a This course of action, and in particular its timing, suggests. that EPSTEIN was attempting to influence who might have been able to provide information against him in light of the recently re-emerging allegations. B. Probable Cause Justifying Search of the Subject Items The Indictment and Victim-1 10. As set forth in Exhibit A, from at least in or about 2002, up to and including at least in or about 2005, JEFFREY EPSTEIN sexually abused multiple minor girls in the Southern District of New York and elsewhere. During that time and continuing to the present, EPSTEIN possessed and controlled a multi-story, single-family residence located at 9 East 71st Street, New York, New York, which is described in Exhibit A as "the New York Residence." 11. As further set forth in paragraphs 8 through 10 of Exhibit A, from at least in or about 2002, up to and including at least in or about 2005, EPSTEIN sexually abused numerous minor victims at the New York Residence. In particular, and as alleged in the Indictment, when a victim arrived at the New York Residence, she would be escorted to a room inside the Subject Premises with a massage table, where she would perform a massage on EPSTEIN. The victims, who were as young as 14 years of age, were told by EPSTEIN or other individuals to partially or fully undress before beginning the "massage." During the encounter, EPSTEIN would escalate the nature and scope of physical contact with his victim to include, among other things, sex acts such as EPSTEIN typically would also FolloWing each encounter, EPSTEIN or one of his employees or associates paid the victim in cash. 4 2017.08.02 EFTA00247156 12. As set forth in paragraphs 12 through 13 of Exhibit A, to further facilitate his ability to abuse minor girls in New York, JEFFREY EPSTEIN asked and enticed certain of his victims to recruit additional minor girls to perform "massages" and similarly engage in sex acts with EPSTEIN. When a victim would recruit another minor girl for EPSTEIN, he paid both the victim- recruiter and the new victim hundreds of dollars in cash. EPSTEIN knew that his victims were underage, including because certain victims told him their age. 13. One of the victims identified in paragraph 22 of Exhibit A is Victim-1. As part of the FBI's investigation of EPSTEIN, other law enforcement officers and I have interviewed Victim-1.2 During those interviews, Victim-1 has said, in substance and in part, that EPSTEIN sexually abused Victim-1 on multiple occasions between approximately 2002 and 2005 in the New York Residence. This sexual abuse all occurred when Victim-1 was under the age of 18. The July 6.2019 and July 7.2019 Search Warrants for the New York Residence 14. On or about July 6, 2019, the Honorable Barbara Moses, United States Magistrate Judge, signed a search warrant authorizing a search of the New York Residence. The search warrant is attached as Exhibit B and incorporated by reference herein. 15. At approximately 6 p.m. on or about July 6, 2019, law enforcement officers (the "Search Team") commenced executing the search warrant at the New York Residence. 2 In meetings with the Government, Victim-1 has disclosed that, approximately a decade ago, she committed marriage fraud in order to obtain a green card and, subsequently, U.S. citizenship. She has also disclosed personal substance abuse, primarily involving the abuse of prescription drugs, during various periods between the early 2000s and 2019. Victim-1 has also disclosed having worked for approximately a year at a "happy-ending" massage parlor, performing paid sex acts. Victim-1 is currently pursuing a civil damages claim against EPSTEIN for his sexual abuse of her. Information provided by Victim-1 has proven reliable and has been corroborated by independent evidence, including documents and records obtained during the investigation and the accounts of other victims whom Victim-1 has never met. 5 2017.08.02 EFTA00247157 16. Based on the Search Team's observations during an initial search of the New York Residence, at approximately 7 pan., the Search Team stopped the search and froze the scene in order to seek a new search warrant. 17. On or about July 7, 2019, the Honorable Barbara Moses, United States Magistrate Judge, signed a second search warrant authorizing a search of the New York Residence (the "Second Warrant"). The Second Warrant is attached as Exhibit C, and incorporated by reference herein. At approximately 2:30 a.m., the Search Team resumed the search, and commenced searching pursuant to the Second Warrant. 18. Based on my conversations with members of the Search Team, I have learned the following: a. The Search Team observed a number of computing devices, including computers and tablet devices, throughout the New York Residence. b. Inside a safe in a closet on the third floor (the "Safe"), the Search Team discovered and seized, among other items, several binders containing sleeves of compact discs, most of which are labeled with handwriting. In total, the binders contain dozens of compact discs. One disc is labeled ` and " Another disc is labeled "Nudes 00-24." Another is labeled "Misc. Nudes." Yet another is labeled "Girl Pics Nude." Some discs contain the word "Zorro" or "LS.J." For example, one disc is marked (IM Zorro Pies." Based on my conversations with law enforcement agents who have participated in this investigation, I believe the name "Zorro" refers to Zorro Ranch, EPSTEIN's property in New Mexico, and the name LSJ refers to Little Saint James, EPSTEIN's property in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The majority of the discs contain titles that include female names. Some of the discs in the binders seized by the Search Team have titles that appear to refer to trips or vacations. 6 2017.08.02 EFTA00247158 c. At the time of the search, the Search Team did not seize certain binders of discs located in the Safe, where the majority of the discs in the binder were labeled in a manner that did not appear to refer to girls or nudes. The Search Team also did not seize at that time several unlabeled hard drives, which were also located in the Safe. As detailed below, those additional . binders of discs are among the subjects of this application. d. In addition to the Safe, in the drawer of a dresser in a room on the Fifth floor of the New York Residence, the Search team discovered and seized, among other items, a shoebox (the "Shoebox") which contained numerous compact discs. The majority of the discs are labeled, in handwriting, with female names. One disc is labeled "Thai Massage." Mother disc is labeled "Blonde Girl Photo Shoot." Yet another disc is labeled "Misc. Girls Nude/Dinner—Scientists." The discs in the Shoebox were seized by the Search Team. In another drawer of that same dresser, the Search Team discovered loose polaroid photographs depicting young, nude females who, based on the training and experience of law enforcement officers who observed them, appear to be teenagers. In that same drawer, the Search Team discovered a folder marked, in handwriting, ".," which contained photographs, including nude and sexually suggestive photographs of a young girl who, based on the training and experience of law enforcement officers who observed them, appears to be younger than 18. The folder also contained other nude photographs of young girls who appear to be teenagers, based on my training and experience. Inside the folder is a compact disc marked ". at LIS 6/03" (the "Elise"), which was seized by the Search Team. e. In a closet on the Fifth Floor of the New York Residence, the Search Team discovered, among other items, a box marked "women/old photos." The box contained, among other items, approximately seven compact discs, which are labeled with hand-written titles. One disc is labeled "nudes 00-24." Mother is labeled Thotographera '03" The remaining 7 2017.08.02 EFTA00247159 discs contain titles that include female names. All of the foregoing discs were seized by the Search Team. f. In that same closet, the Search Team discovered numerous black binders containing what appear to be print outs of digital photographs (with file names underneath) and compact discs. The Search Team seized approximately ten binders (the "Seized Binders") 3 which appeared to contain, among other photographs, photographs of nude or partially nude young girls, some of which are in sexually suggestive poses. Based on the training and experience of law enforcement officers who observed them, at least some of the young girls depicted in the photographs appear to be teenagers, including some who appear to be under the age of 18. The Seized Binders also include photographs of what appear to be personal functions, events, and travel. g. The compact discs seized by the Search Team and described in paragraphs 16(a)-(d) are currently stored within the Southern District of New York in containers marked for identification with FBI evidence numbers 15, 16, 17, 18, and 22 (the "Seized Discs"). The-Julv-7,201-9-Seareh-Wanant-for-the-Seized-Discs 19. On or about July 7, 2019, the Honorable Barbara Moses, United States Magistrate Judge, signed a third search warrant to search and seize electronic media stored on the Seized Discs (the "Third Search Warrant"). The Third Warrant is attached as Exhibit D, and incorporated by reference herein. 20. Based on my conversations with law enforcement agents who have reviewed the Seized Discs pursuant to the Third Search Warrant (the "Reviewing Agents"), I have learned the following: 3 The Search Team did not seize the remaining binders. 8 2017.08.02 EFTA00247160 C • a. The discs contain approximately thousands of nude or partially nude photographs of girls or young women, many of which are in sexually suggestive poses. Based on my conversations with the Reviewing Agents, who have particular training and experience relating to child erotica and visual depictions of children in child exploitation cases, I have learned that the Reviewing Agents believe that many of the nude or partially nude images they have reviewed appear to depict girls under the age of 18. Moreover, many of the photographs appear to be labeled with file names that suggest the photographs depict these girls at properties associated with JEFFREY EPSTEIN. For example, some file names are labeled "Zorro" or "LSJ." b. Among the photographs on the Seized Discs, the Reviewing Agents identified partially-nude photographs of a young girl, labeled with an associated name that matched a particular individual ("Individual-1"). After identifying those photographs, the Government was advised by Individual-I's counsel that Individual-1 recalls the month and year during which she believes those partially-nude photographs were taken, and also the location where they were taken, and that she was 17 years old at the time.' 21. In addition, I have learned that some of the file names are marked." which are the initials of reported that photos may have been taken by . As set forth below, I have interviewed an individual who has photographed her. Accordingly, I believe that a portion of these 4 A preliminary review of the metadata from these photographs has been inconclusive. In particular, some of die photographs of Individual-1 contain metadata suggesting the photographs were taken on a date when Individual-1 would have been 18 years old. Other photographs of Individual-1, which appear based on Individual-I's appearance and surroundings to have been taken around the same time, contain metadata suggesting the photographs were taken on a date when Individual-1 would have been 15 years old. 9 2017.08.02 EFTA00247161 22. Among the photographs seized from the New York Residence, the Reviewing Agents identified partially-nude photographs of a young girl, labeled with die name of a particular individual ("Individual-1"). In or about August 2019, I participated in an interview of Individual- 1, with her counsel present. Based on my personal observations, I believe that the photographs described in Paragraph 20(b) depict Individual-1. I have also spoken with another law enforcement agent who interviewed Individual-1 on a separate occasion in or about July 2019, with her counsel present. During the course of these interviews, Individual-1 stated, in sum an substance that she met EPSTEIN in 2003 when she was approximately 17, and that she travelled to several of EPSTEIN's properties before she turned 18. EPSTEIN paid for the trips, and would give Individual-1 money and gifts while she traveled with him. During these trips, EPSTEIN sexually abused and assaulted Individual-1 on approximately four different occasions, all of which occurred before she turned 18. Individual- I reported that EPSTEIN raped her during two of these incidents. Individual-1 further reported that, when she was approximately 17, asked to photograph her, and did in fact photograph Individual-1. The July 11, 2019 Search Warrant for All Electronic Devices and Storage Media in the New York Residence 23. Following the initiation of the FBI's review of the Seized Discs, on or about July 11, 2019, the Honorable Henry B. Pitman, United States Magistrate Judge, signed another search warrant authorizing another search of the New York Residence and specifically authorizing the seizure and search of all electronic devices and storage media inside the New York Residence (the "Fourth Warrant"). The Fourth Warrant is attached as Exhibit E and incorporated by reference herein. 24. Later on July 11, 2019, the Search Team executed the Fourth Warrant at the New York Residence. 10 2017.08.02 EFTA00247162 25. Based on my conversations with members of the Search Team, I have learned the following, among other things, regarding the execution of the Fourth Warrant: a. During the July 11, 2019 execution of the Fourth Warrant inside the New York Residence, the Search Team found that the Safe described above was empty and, in particular, that the collection of discs and hard drives described in paragraph 16(b), above, that the Search Team had not seized during its prior search of the New York Residence on July 7, 2019, had been removed. b. After discovering that the Safe was empty, the Search Team spoke with an employee who worked at the New York Residence (the "Employee"). During that conversation, the Employee told the Search Team that after the completion of the prior search on July 7, 2019, the Employee had been instructed by a third party ("the Third Party") to take the contents of the Safe out of the New York Residence and deliver those items to the Third Party. The Employee further told the Search Team that after receiving that instruction, the Employee packed the contents of the Safe into two suitcases and delivered those suitcases to the Third Party. The Employee provided the Search Team with the Third Party's contact information. c. The Search Team then contacted the Third Party. During the ensuing conversation, the Third Party confirmed receipt of two suitcases from the Employee but also told the Search Team that the Third Party had not opened the suitcases or touched or tampered with their contents. The Third Party also agreed to deliver the two suitcases to the Search Team. d. Later on July 11, 2019, and consistent with the conversation described above, the Third Party met the Search Team outside of the New York Residence and provided Special Agent with the two suitcases described above, one of which was blue and one of which was black. Consistent with standard law enforcement protocol, the Search Team 11 2017.08.02 EFTA00247163 conducted an inventory of both suitcases before taking custody of them. While taking an inventory of the blue suitcase, the Search Team discovered, among other items, Subject Item-1. While taking an inventory of the black suitcase, the Search Team discovered, among other items, Subject Item- 2. These items, i.e., Subject Items -1, and -2, appeared to be the same items observed in the Safe by the Search Team during the July 7, 2019 search of the New York Residence. The July 15, 2019 Search Warrant for Certain Items Located Inside the Blue and Black Suitcases 26. On or about July 15, 2019, the Honorable Kevin Nathaniel Fox, United States Magistrate Judge, signed a search warrant authorizing the search of several items, including items recovered from the black and blue suitcases seized by Special Agent on or about July 11, 2019 (the "Fifth Warrant"). The Fifth Warrant is attached as Exhibit F and incorporated by reference herein. 27. In support of the Government's request for the Fifth Warrant, a Special Agent of the FBI submitted an affidavit in which she described some of the contents of the black and blue suitcases seized by Special Agent on or about July 11, 2019. Before submitting that affidavit, that agent had not personally reviewed the contents of those suitcases; rather, those descriptions were based on her conversations with other FBI agents who had seized the suitcases. Based on those conversations with other agents, she requested that the Fifth Warrant authorize the search of, among other items, (a) two black binders with CDs, which were seized by Special Agent from a blue suitcase on or about July 11, 2019, and (b) two binders with various CDs, which were seized by Special Agent from a black suitcase on or about July 11, 2019. The Fifth Warrant authorized the search of those specific items. 28. After the Fifth Warrant was issued, other law enforcement agents retrieved some of the items listed in the Fifth Warrant from the blue and black suitcases, which were and remain 12 2017.08.02 EFTA00247164 in FBI custody in the Southern District of New York. Those other agents initiated searches of certain items inside the two suitcases, including of Subject Item-1. 29. Subsequently, I personally inspected the contents of these suitcases, and realized that there had been a miscommunication about the color and quantity of the binders of CDs in each suitcase. In particular, the blue suitcase in fact contained two blue binders with CDs (defined herein as Subject Item-1), not two black binders. Additionally, the black suitcase in fact contained a total of four binders with CDs, three of which are blue and one of which is clear with a green spine, (defined herein as Subject Item-2), not two binders. 30. In light of these discrepancies, the FBI ceased its search of Subject Item-1 and never initiated a search of Subject Item-2. Accordingly, I now respectfully request a warrant authorizing a search of the binders that are in fact located inside the two suitcases, which have been identified as Subject Item-1 and Subject Item-2 herein. Request to Search the Subject Items 31. Based on my training and experience and .participation in this investigation, I respectfully submit that there is probable cause to believe that the Subject Items will contain and/or constitute additional fruits, evidence and instrumentalities of the Subject Offenses. As an initial matter, all of the Subject Items were originally found in the same Safe in which EPSTEIN was storing discs and other media already reviewed and which contain hundreds of not thousands of nude and suggestive images of young females, some of whom appear to be under 18. Given as much, and because there is probable cause to believe that EPSTEIN and his co-conspirators, including engaged in sex trafficking of underage girls, there is probable cause to believe that the additional storage media in EPSTEIN' s possession and control—Le., the Subject Items-Lwill contain evidence of the Subject Offenses. Moreover, that efforts were made to remove 13 2017.01:02 EFTA00247165 Subject Items -1 and -2 from the New York Residence after the initial search only further reinforces the probable cause to believe that those Subject Items contain and constitute fruits, evidence and instrumentalities of the Subject Offenses. 32. I further know from my training and experience that computer files or remnants of • such files can be recovered months or even years after they have been created or saved on an electronic device such as the Subject Items. Even when such files have been deleted, they can often be recovered, depending on how the device has subsequently been used, months or years later with forensics tools. Thus, the ability to retrieve from information from the Subject Items depends less on when the information was first created or saved than on a particular user's device configuration, storage capacity, and computer habits. 33. Based on the foregoing, I respectfully submit there is probable cause to believe that evidence of JEFFREY EPSTElN's commission of the Subject Offences is likely to be found on the Subject Items. III. Procedures for Searching ESI A. Review of ESI 34. Law enforcement personnel (who may include, in addition to law enforcement officers and agents, attorneys for the government, attorney support staff, agency personnel assisting the government in this investigation, and outside technical experts under government control) will review the ESI contained on the Subject Items for information responsive to the warrant. 35. In conducting this review, law enforcement may use various techniques to determine which files or other ESI contain evidence or fruits of the Subject Offenses. Such techniques may include, for example: 14 2017.08.02 EFTA00247166 • surveying directories or folders and the individual files they contain (analogous to looking at the outside of a file cabinet for the markings it contains and opening a drawer believed to contain pertinent files); • conducting a file-by-file review by "opening" or reading the first few "pages" of such files in order to determine their precise contents (analogous to performing a cursory examination of each document in a file cabinet to determine its relevance); • "scanning" storage areas to discover and possibly recover recently deleted data or deliberately hidden files; and • performing electronic keyword searches through all electronic storage areas to determine the existence and location of data potentially related to the subject matter of the investigations; and • reviewing metadata, system information, configuration files, registry data, and any other information reflecting how, when, and by whom the computer was used. 36. Law enforcement personnel will make reasonable efforts to restrict their search to data falling within the categories of evidence specified in the warrant. Depending on the circumstances, however, law enforcement may need to conduct a complete review of all the ESI from the Subject Items to evaluate its contents and to locate all data responsive to the warrant. B. Return of the Subject Items 37. If the Government determines that the Subject Items are no longer necessary to retrieve and preserve the data on the Subject Items, and that the Subject Items are not subject to seizure pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 41(c), the Government will return the. Subject Items, upon request. Computer data that is encrypted or unreadable will not be returned unless law enforcement personnel have determined that the data is not (i) an instrumentality of the s Keyword searches alone are typically inadequate to detect all relevant data. For one thing, keyword searches work only for text data, yet many types of files, such as images and videos, do not store data as searchable text. Moreover, even as to text data, there may be information properly subject to seizure but that is not captured by a keyword search because the information does not contain the keywords being searched. 15 2017.08.02 EFTA00247167 offense, (ii) a fruit of the criminal activity, (iii) contraband, (iv) otherwise unlawfully possessed, or (v) evidenCe of the Subject Offenses. IV. Conclusion and Ancillary Provisions 38. Based on the foregoing, I respectfully request the court to issue a warrant to seize the items and information specified in Attaclunent A to this affidavit and to the Search and Seizure Warrant. 39. In light of the confidential nature of the continuing investigation, I respectfully request that this affidavit and all papers submitted herewith be maintained under seal until the Court orders otherwise.

Items Subject to Search and Seizure The Subject Items are particularly described as follows: a. Two blue binders with CDs, which were seized by Special Agent a from a blue suitcase on or about July 11, 2019 ("Subject Item-I"). b. Three blue binders with various CDs and one clear binder with a green spine with various CDs, all four of which were seized by Special Agent from a black suitcase on or about July 11, 2019 ("Subject Item-2"). II. Review of ESI on the Subject Items Law enforcement personnel (who may include, in addition to law enforcement officers and agents, attorneys for the government, attorney support staff; agency personnel assisting the government in this investigation, and outside technical experts under government control) are authorized to review the ESI contained on the Subject Items for evidence, fruits, and instrumentalities of violations of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1591 (sex trafficking of minors), and 371 (sex trafficking conspiracy) (the "Subject Offenses") described as follows: 1. Any documents or communications with or regarding victims or potential victims of the Subject Offenses; 2. Any photographs of victims or potential victims of the Subject Offenses; 3. Any nude, partially nude, or sexually suggestive photographs of individuals who appear to be teenage girls, or younger; 4. Records, data, or other items that evidence ownership, control, or use of, or access to the Subject Items, including, but not limited to access history data, historical location data, configuration files, saved usemames and passwords, user profiles, e-mail contacts, and photographs; 5. Any child erotica, defined as suggestive visual depictions of nude minors that do not constitute child pornography as defined by 18 U.S.C. § 2256(8). To the extent that the Subject Items contain any removable storage media, including CDs, the description of each such item encompasses those other media. 2017.08.02 EFTA00247169 In conducting this review, law enforcement personnel may use various techniques to determine which files or other ESI contain evidence or fruits of the Subject Offenses. Such techniques may include, for example: • surveying directories or folders and the individual files they contain (analogous to looking at the outside of a file cabinet for the markings it contains and opening a drawer believed to contain pertinent files); • conducting a file-by-file review by "opening" or reading the first few "pages" of such files in order to determine their precise contents (analogous to performing a cursory examination of each document in a file cabinet to determine its relevance); • "scanning" storage areas to discover and possibly recover recently deleted data or deliberately hidden files; and • performing electronic keyword searches through all electronic storage areas to determine the existence and location of data potentially related to the subject matter of the investigation; and • reviewing metadata, system information, configuration files, registry data, and any other information reflecting how, when, and by whom the computer was used. Law enforcement personnel will make reasonable efforts to search only for files, documents, or other electronically stored information within the categories identified in Section II of this Attachment. However, law enforcement personnel are authorized to conduct a complete review of all the ESI from seized devices or storage media if necessary to evaluate its contents and to locate all data responsive to the warrant. 2 2017.08.02. EFTA00247170 EXHIBIT A 2017.08.02 EFTA00247171 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK UNITED• STATES OF AMERICA JEFFREY EPSTEIN, Defendant. x SEALED INDICTMENT 19 Cr. 19 CRIM COUNT ONE (Sex Trafficking Conspiracy) 490 ' The Grand Jury Charges: OVERVIEW 1. As set forth herein, over the course of many years, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, sexually exploited and• abused dozens of minor girls at his homes in Manhattan, New York, and Palm Beach, Florida, among other locations. 2. In particular, from at least in or about 2002, up to. and including at least in or about 2005, JEFFREY EPSTEIN", the defendant, enticed and recruited, and caused to be enticed and recruited, minor girls to visit his mansion in Manhattan, New York (the "New York Residente") and his estate in Palm Beach, Florida (the "Palm Beach ResIdende") to engage in sex acts with him, after which he would give the victims hundreds of dollars in cash. Moreover, and in order to maintain and increase his supply of victims, EPSTEIN also paid certain of his victims to recruit additional girls to be similarly abused by EPSTEIN. In EFTA00247172 . r this way, EPSTEIN created a vast network of underage victims for him to sexually exploit in. locations including New York and Palm Beach. 3. The victims described herein were as young as 14 years old at the time they were abused by JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, and were, for various reasons, often particularly vulnerable to exploitation. EPSTEIN intentionally sought out minors and knew that many of his victims were in fact under the age of 18, including because, in some instances, minor victims expressly told him their age. • 4. In creating and maintaining this network of minor victims in multiple states to sexually abuse and exploit, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, worked and conspired with others, including employees and associates who facilitated his conduct by, among other things, contacting victims and scheduling their sexual encounters with EPSTEIN at the New York Residence and at the Palm Beach Residence. FACTUAL BACKGROUND 5. During all time periods charged in this Indictment, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, was a financier with multiple residences in the continental United States, including the New York Residence and the Palm Beach Residence. 6. Beginning in at least 2002, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, enticed and recruited, and .caused to be enticed and • 2 EFTA00247173 • recruited, dozens of minor girls to engage in sex acts with him, after which EPSTEIN paid the victims hundreds of dollars in cash, at the New York Residence and the Palm Beach Residence. 7: In both New York and Florida, JEFFRBY EPSTEIN, the defendant, perpetuated this abuse in similar ways. Victims were initially recruited to provide 'massages' to EPSTEIN, which would be perforded nude or partially 'nude, would become increasingly seXual in nature, and would typically include one or more sex acts. EPSTEIN paid his victims hundreds of dollars in cash for each encounter. Moreover, EPSTEIN actively encouraged certain. of his victims to recruit additional girls to be similarly sexually abused. EPSTEXN:incentivized hie victims to become recruiters by paying these victim7tecruiters hundreds of dollars for each girl that they broUght to EPSTEIN. In so doing, EPSTEIN maintained a steady supply of new victims to exploit. The New York Residence 8. At all times relevant to this Indictment, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, possessed and controlled a multi-story pritate residence an the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York, i.e., the New-York Residence. Between at least in or about 20Q2 and in or about 2005, EPSTEIN abused numerous minor victims at the New York Residence by causing theSe victims to be recruited to engage in paid sex acts with him. 3 EFTA00247174 9. When a victim arrived at the New York Residence, she typically would be escorted to a room with a massage table, where she would perform a massage on JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant. The victims, who were as young as 14 years of•age, were told by EPSTEIN or other individuals to partially or fully undress before beginning the "massage." During the encounter, "EPSTEIN would escalate the nature and scope of physical contact with his victim to include, among other things, sex acts such as ■ EPSTEIN typically would also • • 10. In connection with each sexual encounter, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, or one of his employees or associates, paid the victim in cash. Victims typically were paid hundreds of dollars in cash for each encounter. 11. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, knew that many of his New York victims were underage, including because certain victims told him their age. Fuither, once these minor victims were recruited, many were abused by EPSTEIN on multiple subsequent occasions at the New York Residence. EPSTEIN sometimes personally contacted victims to schedule appointments at the New York Residence. In other instances, EPSTEIN directed EFTA00247175 employees and associates, including a New York-based employee ("Employee-1"), to communicate with victims via phone to arrange for these victims to return to the New York Residence for additional sexual encounters with EPSTEIN. 12. Additionally, and to further facilitate his ability to abuse minor girls in New York, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, asked and enticed certain of his victims to recruit additional girls to perform "massages" and similarly engage in *sex acts with EPSTEIN. When a victim would recruit another girl for EPSTEIN, he paid both the victim-recruiter and the new victim hundreds of dollars in cash. Through these victim- recruiters, EPSTEIN gained access to and was able to abuse dozens of additional minor girls. 13. In particular, certain recruiters brought dozens of additional minor girls to the New York Residence to give massages to and engage in sex acts with JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant. EPSTEIN encouraged victims to recruit additional girls by offering to pay these victim-recruiters for every additional girl they brought to EPSTEIN. When a victim- recruiter accompanied a new minor victim to the New York Residence, both the victim-recruiter and the new minor victim were paid hundreds of dollars by EPSTEIN for each encounter. In additionr certain victim-recruiters routinely scheduled these 5 EFTA00247176 • or encounters through Employee-1, who sometimes asked the recruiters to bring a specific minor girl for EPSTEIN. The Palm Beach Residepde 14. In addition to reoruiting and. abusing minor girls in Pew York, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, created a similar network of minor girls to victimize in Palm Beach, Florida, where EPSTEIN owned, possesSed and controlled another large residence, i.e., the Palm Beach Residence. EPSTEIN frequently traveled from New York to Balt Beach by private jet, before which an employee or associate would ensure that minor victims were •available for encounters upon his arrival in Florida. 15. At the Palm Beach Residence, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, engaged in a similar course of abusive conduct. When a victim initially arrived at the Palm Beach Residence, she would bp-escorted to a room, sometimes by an employee of EPSTEIN's, including, at times, two assistants ("Employee-2" and' "Employee-S/ who, as described herein, Jere .also responsible for scheduling sexual encounters with minor victims. Once inside, the victim would provide a nude or'semi-nude massage for EPSTEIN, who would himself typically be naked. During these encounters, EPSTEIN would escalate the nature and scope of the physical contact to include. IF also typically la . EPSTEIN would 6 EFTA00247177 • 16. In connection with each sexual encounter, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the'defendant, or one of his employees or associates, paid the victim in cash. Victims typically were paid hundreds of dollars for each encounter. 17. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, knew that certain of his victims were underage, including because certain victims told him their age. In addition, aS with New York-based victims, many Florida victims, once recruited, were abused by JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, on multiple additional occasions, 18. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, who during the relevant time period was frequently in New York, would arrange for Employee-2 or other employees to contact victims by phone in advance. of EPSTEIN'S travel to Florida to ensure appeintments were scheduled for when he. arrived. I.n particular, in certain in's'tances, Employee-2 placed phone calls to minor victims in Florida to schedule encounters at the Palm Beach Residence. at the time of certain of those phone calls, EPSTEIN and Employee-2 were in New YOrk, New York. Additionally, certain of the individuals victimized at the Palm 'Beach Residence were contacted by phone by Employee-3 to schedule these encounters. 7 EFTA00247178 19. Moreover, as in New York, to ensure a steady stream of minor victims, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the defendant, asked and enticed certain victims in Florida to recruit other girls to engage in sex acts. EPSTEIN paid hundreds of dollars to victim- recruiters for each additional girl they brought to the Palm Beach Residence. STATUTORY ALLEGATIONS 20.

Evidence, Fruits, and Instrumentalities of the Subject Offenses This warrant authorizes the seizure of certain evidence, fruits, and instrumentalities of violations of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1591 (sex trafficking of minors), and 371 (sex trafficking conspiracy) (the "Subject Offenses") described as follows: 1. Any documents or communications with or regarding victims or potential victims of the Subject Offenses; 2. Any photographs of victims or potential victims of the Subject Offenses; 3. Any nude, partially nude, or sexually suggestive photographs of individuals who appear to be teenage girls, or younger;1, 4.

Any child erotica, defined as suggestive visual depictions of nude minors that do not constitute child pornography as defined by 18 U.S.C. § 2256(8). B. Review of ESI Law enforcement personnel (including, in addition to law enforcement officers and agents, and depending on the nature of the ESI and the status of the investigation and related proceedings, attorneys for the government, attorney support staff, agency personnel assisting the government in this investigation, and outside technical experts under government control) will create a forensic image of the Subject Devices (if practicable) and review the ESI contained therein for information responsive to the warrant. In conducting this review, law enforcement personnel may use various techniques to determine which files or other ESI contain evidence or fruits of the Subject Offenses. Such techniques may include, for example: 2017.08.02 EFTA00247198 • surveying directories or folders and the individual files they contain (analogous to looking at the outside of a file cabinet for the markings it contains and opening a drawer believed to contain pertinent files); • conducting a file-by-file review by "opening" or reading the first few "pages" of such files in order to determine their precise contents (analogous to performing a cursory examination of each document in a file cabinet to determine its relevance); • "scanning" storage areas to discover and possibly recover recently deleted data or deliberately hidden files; and • performing electronic keyword searches through all electronic storage areas to determine the existence and location of data potentially related to the subject matter of the investigation6; and • reviewing metadata, system information, configuration files, registry data, and any other information reflecting how, when, and by whom the computer was used. Law enforcement personnel will make reasonable efforts to search only for files, documents, or other electronically stored information within the categories identified in Section II.A of this Attachment. However, law enforcement personnel are authorized to conduct a complete review of all the ESI from seized devices or storage media if necessary to evaluate its contents and to locate all data responsive to the warrant. 6 Keyword searches alone are typically inadequate to detect all relevant data.

TO BE FILED UNDER SEAL Agent Affidavit in Support of Application for Search and Seizure Warrant SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK) ss.: being duly sworn, deposes and says: I. Introduction A. Affiant 1. I have been a Task Force Officer with the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI") since 2017. As such, I am a "federal law enforcement officer within the meaning of Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 41(a)(2)(C), that is, a government agent engaged in enforcing the criminal laws and duly authorized by the Attorney General to request a search warrant. I am also a detective with the New York Police Department ("NYPD") and have been employed by the NYPD for approximately thirteen years. I am currently assigned to investigate violations of criminal law relating to the sexual exploitation of children as part of an FBI Task Force. I have gained expertise in this area through classroom training and daily work related to these types of investigations. As part of my responsibilities, I have been involved in the investigation of sex trafficking cases, and have participated in the execution of search warrants for electronic devices and electronic storage media. 2. I make this Affidavit in support of an application pursuant to Rule 41 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure for a warrant to search the electronic devices specified below (the "Subject Devices") for the items and information described in Attachment A. This affidavit is 2 2017.08.02 EFTA00247212 based upon my personal knowledge; my review of documents and other evidence; my conversations with other law enforcement personnel; and my training, experience and advice received concerning the use of computers in criminal activity and the forensic analysis of electronically stored information ("ESI"). Because this affidavit is being submitted for the limited purpose of establishing probable cause, it does not include all the facts that I have learned during the course of my investigation. Where the contents of documents and the actions, statements, and conversations of others are reported herein, they are reported in substance and in part, except where otherwise indicated. B. The Subject Devices 3. The Subject Devices were all recovered from a search of a private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands, known as Little Saint James, which is an approximately 75 acre island located approximately four miles off the southeast coast of St. Thomas Island (the "Virgin Islands Residence") on or about August 12, 2019. The Virgin Islands Residence consists of multiple structures, including a main residence as well as several other smaller structures on the island, including a pool house, sheds, a beach house, an office, and multiple cabanas. However, as detailed below, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, who was a Target Subject of this Investigation until his death in August 2019, is the only known occupant of the Virgin Islands Residence. The Subject Devices are particularly described as follows: a. A gray Mac desktop computer labeled "kitchen mac," which was recovered from a desk in the main residence on the island ("Subject Device-1"); b. A silver Mac laptop labeled "JE big laptop," bearing serial number W8 111772QT, which was recovered from a desk in the main residence on the island ("Subject Device-2"); 3 2017.08.02 EFTA00247213 c.

A silver Mac desktop computer, which was recovered from a desk in a cabana on the island ("Subject Device 10"); k. A silver Macbook desktop computer, which was recovered from a desk in a cabana on the island ("Subject Device-11"); I. A Dell Inspiron Tower computer model D19M QC1IFA335, which was recovered from a desk in the beach house on the island ("Subject Device-I2"); m. A silver Mac desktop computer model A1311 bearing serial number W804736DDAS, which was recovered from a desk in the beach house on the island ("Subject Device-13"); 4 2017.08.02 EFTA00247214 a a n. A Unfi video bearing mac ID 1829f b4fbe426ea90, which was recovered from a server rack inside a shed on the island ("Subject Device-I4"); o. A Unifi Server bearing mac ID 1735K 788A20463234-8uuu9f, which was recovered from a server rack inside a shed in on the island ("Subject Device-15"); p. An HP server with four 500 GB drives, bearing serial number MXQ3220187, which was recovered from a shed on the island ("Subject Device-16"); q. A Panasonic KX TDE100 computer bearing serial number KX-TDa0104 9LCCD005398, which was found on a server rack in a shed on the island ("Subject Device-17"); r. A 6 bay with 146 GB drives bearing serial number MXQ824A IR, which was found on a server rack in a shed on the island ("Subject Device-18"); s. A silver Mac desktop computer, which was recovered from a desk in a cabana on the island ("Subject Device-19"); t. An HP desktop tower model 260-A010, bearing serial number cnv7160050, which was recovered from the maintenance office on the island ("Subject Device-20"); u. An HP tower model 260-A010, bearing serial number cnv716004y, which was recovered from the maintenance office on the island ("Subject Device-21"); v. A Mac desktop computer model A1312, bearing serial number w89524czspj, which was recovered from the maintenance office on the island ("Subject Device-22"); w.

An HP Tower bearing serial number CNV74213M3 570-P056, which was recovered the maintenance office on the island ("Subject Device-25"); z. A Unifi cloudkey with FCCID: SWX-UCCK IC 6545A-UCCK and Mac ID 1843kb4fbe4d30c69-dcrgm9, which was found on a server rack in a shed on the island ("Subject Device-26"); and a. A red Nikon digital camera, which was recovered on a file cabinet next to a desk in a cabana on the island ("Subject Device-27"). 4. Subject Device-I through Subject Device-25 are all computers and/or storage devices capable of storing electronic picture and message files. 5. Subject Device-26 is a device that identifies a user to a service over the Internet. It acts as a key that allows users to access other data on other devices, such as Subject Device-1 through Subject Device-25. 6. Subject Device-27 is a digital camera capable of taking and storing electronic picture files. 7. The Subject Devices have all been transported by the FBI from the Virgin Islands to FBI offices in the Southern District of New York. At this time, all of the Subject Devices are presently located in the Southern District of New York. C. The Subject Offenses 8. For the reasons detailed below, I believe that there is probable cause to believe that the Subject Device contains evidence, fruits, and instrumentalities of violations of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1591 (sex trafficking of minors), and 371 (sex trafficking conspiracy) (the "Subject Offenses"). The Target Subjects of this investigation are known and unknown co- conspirators of JEFFREY EPSTEIN, including but not limited to 6 2017.08.02 EFTA00247216 II. Probable Cause and the Initial Search Warrants A. Probable Cause Regarding the Target Subjects' Commission of the Subject Offenses 9. On or about July 2, 2019, a grand jury in the Southern District of New York returned an Indictment charging JEFFREY EPSTEIN with violations of Tide 18, United States Code, Section 1591 (sex trafficking of minors); and Title 18, United States Code, Section 371 (sex trafficking conspiracy). A copy of the Indictment is attached hereto as Exhibit A and is incorporated by reference. EPSTEIN was arrested pursuant to the Indictment on or about July 6, 2019, and had been detained pending trial at the Metropolitan Correctional Center ("MCC") in New York, New York. 10. On or about August 10, 2019, the Bureau of Prisons confirmed that JEFFREY EPSTEIN had been found unresponsive in his cell at the MCC that morning, and was pronounced dead shortly thereafter. 11. Notwithstanding EPSTEIN's death, the sex trafficking investigation that led to his indictment remains ongoing. In particular, Count One of the Indictment alleged that EPSTEIN conspired with others to traffic minors, and further identified three individuals who worked for EPSTEIN (identified in Exhibit A as "Employee-1", "Employee-2," and "Employee-3") and facilitated EPSTEIN's abuse of minor girls by, among other things, arranging victims' encounters with EPSTEIN and paying victims after these encounters. The individual identified in Exhibit A as "Employee-2" is a a Target Subject of this investigation. 12. On or about November 28, 2018, the Miami Herald began publishing a series of articles relating to the defendant, his sexual misconduct with minors, and a previous investigation into his conduct in Florida from in or about 2005 through 2008. The article included information about a role in EPSTEIN's sexual abuse of minors. Based on my participation 7 2017.08.02 EFTA00247217 in this investigation, I have learned that bank records obtained by the Government appear to show that just days later, on or about December 3, 2018, the defendant wired $250,000 from a trust account to II= This course of action, and in particular its timing, suggests that EPSTEIN was attempting to influence who might have been able to provide information against him in light of the recently re-emerging allegations. 13. As set forth in Exhibit A, from at least in or about 2002, up to and including at least in or about 2005, JEFFREY EPSTEIN sexually abused multiple minor girls in Manhattan, New York; West Palm Beach, Florida; and elsewhere. During that time and continuing to the present, EPSTEIN possessed and controlled a residence, which is described in Exhibit A as "the New York Residence." 14. As anther set forth in paragraphs 8 through 10 of Exhibit A, from at least in or about 2002, up to and including at least in or about 2005, EPSTEIN sexually abused numerous minor victims at the New York Residence. In particular, and as alleged in the Indictment, when a victim arrived at the New York Residence, she would be escorted to a room inside the New York Residence with a massage table, where she would perform a massage on EPSTEIN. The victims, who were as young as 14 years of age, were told by EPSTEIN or other individuals to partially or fully undress before beginning the "massage." During the encounter, EPSTEIN would escalate the nature and scope of physical contact with his victim to include, among other things, sex acts such as groping and direct and indirect contact with the victims' genitals. EPSTEIN typically would also masturbate during these sexualized encounters, ask victims to touch him while he masturbated, and touch victims' genitals with his hands or with sex toys. Following each encounter, EPSTEIN or one of his employees or associates paid the victim in cash. 8 2017.08.02 EFTA00247218 15. As set forth in paragraphs 12 through 13 of Exhibit A, to further facilitate his ability to abuse minor girls in New York, JEFFREY EPSTEIN asked and enticed certain of his victims to recruit additional minor girls to perform "massages" and similarly engage in sex acts with EPSTEIN. When a victim would recruit another minor girl for EPSTEIN, he paid both the victim- recruiter and the new victim hundreds of dollars in cash. EPSTEIN knew that his victims were underage, including because certain victims told him their age. 16. One of the victims identified in paragraph 22 of Exhibit A is Victim-1. As part of the FBI's investigation of EPSTEIN, I have participated in interviews with Victim-1, along with other law enforcement officers. I Based on my participation in those interviews and my conversations with other law enforcement officers, I know that Victim-1 has provided the following information, in substance and in part: a. Between approximately 2002 and 2005, EPSTEIN sexually abused Victim-1 on multiple occasions in the New York Residence. This sexual abuse all occurred when Victim-1 was under the age of 18. b. During that same period, Victim-1 observed multiple floors of the New York Residence and numerous individual rooms within the New York Residence. Victim-1 has provided detailed descriptions of certain aspects of the interior of the New York Residence, including Victim-l's memory of specific details regarding the layout, furnishings, decorations, and In meetings with the Government, Victim-1 has disclosed that, approximately a decade ago, she committed marriage fraud in order to obtain a green card and, subsequently, U.S. citizenship. She has also disclosed personal substance abuse, primarily involving the abuse of prescription drugs, during various periods between the early 2000s and 2019. Victim-1 has also disclosed having worked for approximately a year at a "happy-ending" massage parlor, performing paid sex acts. Victim-1 is currently pursuing a civil damages claim against EPSTEIN for his sexual abuse of her. Information provided by Victim-1 has proven reliable and has been corroborated by independent evidence, including documents and records obtained during the investigation and the accounts of other victims whom Victim-1 has never met. 9 2017.08.02 EFTA00247219 floor pattern of various areas within the New York Residence. Among other details, Victim-1 recalled that EPSTEIN typically abused her in a room she described as a "massage room," (the "Massage Room"), which contained a massage table, and was decorated with artwork depicting naked women, hung on walls that appeared to be adorned with fabric. In describing the sexual abuse that occurred in the Massage Room, Victim-1 has stated that EPSTEIN would often touch her genital area with a vibrating sex toy during these abusive encounters. The Search of the New York Residence 17. On or about July 6, 2019, the Honorable Barbara Moses, United States Magistrate Judge, signed a search warrant authorizing a search of the New York Residence. The search warrant is attached as Exhibit B and incorporated by reference herein. 18. At approximately 6 p.m. on or about July 6, 2019, law enforcement officers (the "Search Team") commenced executing the search warrant at the New York Residence. JEFFREY EPSTEIN had been arrested on the charges contained in the Indictment shortly before the execution of the search warrant. Based on the Search Team's observations during an initial search of the New York Residence, at approximately 7 p.m., the Search Team stopped the search and froze the scene in order to seek a new search warrant. On or about July 7, 2019, the Honorable Barbara Moses, United States Magistrate Judge, signed a search warrant authorizing a search of the New York Residence (the "Second Warrant"). The Second Warrant is attached as Exhibit C, and incorporated by reference herein. At approximately 2:30 a.m., the Search Team resumed the search, and commenced searching pursuant to the Second Warrant. Later on July 7, 2019, the Honorable Barbara Moses, United States Magistrate Judge, signed a third search warrant to search and seize certain electronic media stored on discs seized during the execution of the Second 10 2017.08.02 EFTA00247220 Warrant (the "Compact Disc Search Warrant"). The Compact Disc Search Warrant is attached as Exhibit D, and incorporated by reference herein. 19. During the execution of the warrants described above in the New York Residence, the Search Team located evidence of the Subject Offenses. In particular, the Search Team located the following, among other things, the following: a. Inside the New York Residence, the Search Team observed a room that, based on my participation in interviews of Victim-1, appears to be consistent with Victim-l's descriptions of the Massage Room. The room contained a table covered with a sheet, and appeared to be a massage table. The room also contained several vibrating sex toys. The walls appeared to be covered in a type of felt-like tapestry fabric. I further observed two paintings and three photographs hanging on the walls of the Massage Room. The paintings and photographs depict nude females. One of the photographs appears to depict a nude girl. Thus, it appears that the Massage Room was in substantially the same condition as Victim-1 observed the room more than 18 years ago. b. Inside a safe in a closet on the third floor, the Search team discovered and seized, among other items, several binders containing sleeves of compact discs, most of which are labeled with handwriting. In total, the binders contain dozens of compact discs. Some discs contain the word "Zorro" or "LSJ." Based on my conversations with law enforcement agents who have participated in this investigation, I believe the name "Zorro" refers to Zorro Ranch, EPSTEIN's property in New Mexico, and the name LSJ refers to Little Saint James, i.e., the Virgin Islands Residence. The majority of the discs contain titles that include female names. Some of the discs in the binders seized by the Search Team have titles that appear to refer to trips or vacations. 11 2017.08.02 EFTA00247221 S c. In the drawer of a dresser in a room on the Fifth floor of the New York Residence, the Search team discovered and seized, among other items, a shoebox (the "Shoebox") containing numerous compact discs. The majority of the discs are labeled, in handwriting, with female names. One disc is marked "Thai Massage." Another disc is marked "Blonde Girl Photo Shoot." Yet another disc is marked "Misc. Girls Nude/Dinner--Scientists." The discs in the Shoebox were seized by the Search Team. In another drawer of that same dresser, the Search Team discovered loose polaroid photographs depicting young, nude females who, based on the training and experience of law enforcement officers who observed them, appear to be teenagers. d. In a closet on the Fifth Floor of the Manhattan Residence, the Search Team discovered, among other items, a box marked "women/old photos." The box contained, among other items, approximately seven compact discs, which are labeled with hand-written titles. One disc is marked "nudes 00-24." Another is labeled "Photographera '03" The remaining discs contain titles that include female names. All of the foregoing discs were seized by the Search Team. e. In that same closet, the Search Team discovered numerous black binders containing what appear to be print outs of digital photographs (with file names underneath) and compact discs. The binders appeared to contain, among other photographs, photographs of nude or partially nude young girls, some of which are in sexually suggestive poses. Based on the training and experience of law enforcement officers who observed them, some of the young girls appear to be teenagers, some of whom appear to be under the age of 18. The Virgin Islands Residence 20. Based on my review of property records, I believe that JEFFREY EPSTEIN has been the owner of the Virgin Islands Residence since at least in or about 1998. In particular, it 12 2017.08.02 EFTA00247222 appears that an entity named "L.S.J., LLC" held title to the Virgin Islands Residence from in or about 1998. In or about 2011, L.S.J., LLC transferred title to the Virgin Islands Residence to an entity named "Nautilus, Inc.," for $10. On the transfer paperwork, EPSTEIN signed as the "sole member" of L.S.J., LLC and as the "president and sole beneficial owner" of Nautilus, Inc. 21. In addition, I believe that up until his arrest, the Virgin Islands Residence was JEFFREY EPSTEIN's principal residence. In particular, I have reviewed sex offender registration data, and have learned that, on or about June 17, 2019, EPSTEIN listed the Virgin Islands Residence as his primary residence. At the time of EPSTEIN's arrest on or about July 6, 2019, I and other law enforcement officers conducted an inventory search of EPSTEIN's personal effects, and observed that EPSTEIN was carrying a driver's license that listed the Virgin Islands Residence as EPSTEIN's home address. 22. Based on my participation in this investigation, I have reason to believe that EPSTEIN and his co-conspirators committed the Subject Offences in and around the Virgin Islands Residence. Some of the evidence of that conduct was recovered from the New York Residence. In particular, based on my conversations with law enforcement agents who have conducted an initial review (the "Reviewing Agents") of the compact discs seized at the New York Residence as described in paragraphs 15(b)-(e) above (the "Seized Discs"), I have learned that the discs contain approximately thousands of nude or partially nude photographs of girls or young women, many of which are in sexually suggestive poses. Based on my conversations with the Reviewing Agents, who have particular training and experience relating to child erotica and visual depictions of children in child exploitation cases, I have learned that the Reviewing Agents believe that many of the nude or partially nude images they have reviewed appear to depict girls under the age of 18. Certain of these images appear to have been taken at a tropical location, and/or were labeled "LSJ" 13 2017.08.02 EFTA00247223 either in the image file name, or on the compact disc that contained the image. Based on the foregoing, I believe that a portion of the foregoing photographs appear to have been taken at the Virgin Islands Residence. In addition, I have learned that some of the file names are marked which are the initials of a As set forth below, I have interviewed an individual who has reported that l= photographed her at the Virgin Islands Residence. Accordingly, I believe that a portion of these photos may have been taken by I=E 23. Further, based on my conversations with law enforcement agents who have conducted an initial review of the Seized Discs, I have learned the following: a. Many of the photographs appear to be labeled with file names that include "LSJ," which I believe stands for Little St. James, which is the name of the Virgin Islands Residence. b. As discussed above, photographs seized from the New York Residence appear to depict nude or partially nude young girls, and a portion of those photos appear to have been taken at the Virgin Islands Residence, based on the fact that (i) some of the photos appear to have been taken in a tropical location, and (ii) some of the file names of the photographs and/or the labels on the discs containing the files of nude or partially nude young girls in a tropical location are marked "LSJ," i e., the Virgin Islands Residence. c. Among the photogiaphs seized from the New York Residence, the Reviewing Agents identified partially-nude photographs of a young girl, labeled with the name of a particular individual ("Individual-1"). The photographs appear to depict Individual-1 on a beach in what appears to be a tropical location similar to the landscape of the Virgin Islands Residence. 24. In or about August 2019, I participated in an interview of Individual-1, with her counsel present. Based on my personal observations, I believe that the photographs described in Paragraph 23(c) depict Individual-I. I have also spoken with another law enforcement agent who 14 2017.08.02 EFTA00247224 C interviewed Individual-1 on a separate occasion in or about July 2019, with her counsel present. During the course of these interviews, Individual-1 stated, in sum an substance that she met EPSTEIN in 2003 when she was approximately 17, and that she travelled to several of EPSTEIN's properties, including properties in New Mexico, Florida, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, i.e., the Virgin Islands Residence, before she turned 18. EPSTEIN paid for the trips, and would give Individual-I money and gifts while she traveled with him. During these trips, EPSTEIN sexually abused and assaulted Individual-1 on approximately four different occasions, all of which occurred before she turned 18. Individual-I reported that EPSTEIN raped her during two of these incidents. Indivdual-1 recalled that one or more of these instances of sexual abuse occurred on the Virgin Islands Residence. Individual-I further reported that, when she was approximately 17, a asked to photograph her, and did in fact photograph Individual-1 at the Virgin Islands Residence. 25. In or about August 2019, I and another law enforcement officer interviewed an individual ("Individual-2") who regularly performed work for JEFFREY EPSTEIN as a contractor at the Virgin Islands Residence from approximately 1999 to 2005 or 2006. Individual-2 reported that, on several occasions, Individual-2 observed photographs of what appeared to be nude or partially nude young girls in several locations throughout the main residence of the Virgin Islands Residence. Individual-2 recalled a photograph depicting and two girls, all of three whom were topless; Individual-2 estimated that the two girls in the photograph appeared to be approximately 15 or 16 years old. Individual-2 knew to be EPSTEIN's assistant at that time. 26. Based on my review of flight logs from a private jet owned by JEFFREY EPSTEIN, I have learned that traveled to the U.S. Virgin Islands at least approximately 15 2017.08.02 EFTA00247225 once a month between October 2001 and November of 2005. These records do not include any travel may have taken on commercial airlines. 27. For all of these reasons, I am aware that has spent significant time at the Virgin Islands Residence and that evidence of her involvement, and potentially the involvement of other co-conspirators, may be located at the Virgin Islands Residence. In particular, flight logs from EPSTEIN's private jet reflect that the individual identified in the Indictment as "Employee-3" traveled to the U.S. Virgin Islands on approximately nine separate occasions. These records do not include any travel Employee-3 may have taken on commercial airlines. As set forth in the Indictment, Employee-3 scheduled victims' encounters with EPSTEIN. The Search of the Virgin Islands Residence 28. On or about August 11, 2019, United States Magistrate Judge Ruth Miller of the District of the Virgin Islands signed a warrant authorizing the search of the Virgin Islands Residence (the "Virgin Islands Warrant"). The Virgin Islands Warrant is attached as Exhibit E, and incorporated by reference herein. The next day, other law enforcement agents and I executed the Virgin Islands Warrant at the Virgin Islands Residence. 29. Based on my personal participation in the August 12, 2019 search of the Virgin Islands Residence, as well as my conversations with other law enforcement agents who participated in that same search, and my review of documents prepared by other law enforcement agents who participated in that same search, I have learned that during the August 12, 2019 search of the Virgin Islands Residence: a. Subject Device-1 was recovered from a desk in the main residence on the island. b. Subject Device-2 was recovered from a desk in the main residence on the island. c. Subject Device-3 was recovered from a desk in the main residence on the island. 16 2017.08.02 EFTA00247226 d. Subject Device-4 was recovered from a desk in the main residence on the island. e. Subject Device-5 was recovered from a desk in the main residence on the island. f. Subject Device-6 was recovered from a desk in the pool house on the island. g. Subject Device-7 was recovered from a desk in a cabana on the island. h. Subject Device-8 was recovered from a box on the floor near a desk in a shed on the island. i. Subject Device-9 was recovered from a desk in a shed on the island. j. Subject Device-10 was recovered from a desk in a cabana on the island. k. Subject Device-11 was recovered from a desk in a cabana on the island. 1. Subject Device-12 was recovered from a desk in the beach house on the island. m. Subject Device-13 was recovered from a desk in the beach house on the island. n. Subject Device-14 was recovered from a server rack inside a shed on the island. o. Subject Device-15 was recovered from a server rack inside a shed in on the island. p. Subject Device-16 was recovered from a shed on the island. q. Subject Device-17 was found on a server rack in a shed on the island. r. Subject Device-18 was found oh a server rack in a shed on the island. s. Subject Device-I9 was recovered from a desk in a cabana on the island. t. Subject Device-20 was recovered from the maintenance office on the island. u. Subject Device-21 was recovered from the maintenance office on the island. v. Subject Device-22 was recovered from the maintenance office on the island. w. Subject Device-23 was recovered the maintenance office on the island. x. Subject Device-24 was recovered the maintenance office on the island. Subject Device-25 was recovered the maintenance office on the island. 17 2017.08.02 EFTA00247227 z. Subject Device-26 was found on a server rack in a shed on the island. aa. Subject Device-27 was recovered on a file cabinet next to a desk in a cabana on the island. B. Probable Cause Justifying Search of the Subject Devices 30. Based on my training, experience, and participation in this investigation, I believe that there is probable cause that evidence of the Subject Offenses, such as photographs of EPSTEIN's victims and co-conspirators, will be found on the Subject Devices. In particular, information provided by Individual-I, with whom EPSTEIN engaged in sex acts at the Virgin Islands Residence while Individual-1 was a minor, confirms that EPSTEIN engaged in conduct relevant to the Subject Offenses at the Virgin Islands Residence. In addition, photographs on the Seized Discs recovered during the search of the New York Residence depict other young and partially nude girls photographed at the Virgin Islands Residence, which suggests that EPSTEIN brought those girls to the Virgin Islands Residence and that, consistent with the accounts provided by Individual-1, Victim-1 and other victims identified in the Indictment, EPSTEIN likely sexually abused them at the Virgin Islands Residence and maintained evidence of that abuse there on the Subject Devices. Moreover, evidence of co-conspirators' presence at the Virgin Islands Residence at times when victims were abused, including photographs, may also be found on the Subject Devices. Indeed, as noted above, Individual-2 has observed a photograph of partially- nude young girls at the Virgin Islands Residence, suggesting that similar photographs may have been saved on the Subject Devices. Similarly, there is probable cause to believe that evidence of victims' andior co-conspirators' travel arrangements, contact information, and communications will be located on the Subject Devices. • 31. Moreover, though the sexual abuse described above occurred principally between approximately 2002 and 2005, as evidence recovered from the New York Residence including the 18 2017.08.02 EFTA00247228 Seized Discs makes clear, EPSTEIN continued to maintain substantial evidence of the Subject Offenses up until the time he was arrested in 2019. Indeed, as described above, in addition to the Seized Discs, Epstein continued to maintain a "massage room" complete with a massage table and various sex toys that remained similar in makeup and appearance to descriptions of the same room provided by Victim-1 based on Victim-I's encounters with EPSTEIN in 2004. Accordingly, there is probable cause to believe that the Subject Devices, which were seized from a residence where EPSTEIN and his co-conspirators committed the Subject Offenses, will similarly contain evidence of the Subject Offenses. 32. In addition, I believe that evidence of the Subject Offenses, including but not limited to photographs/evidence created at the Virgin Islands Residence, may be located on the Subject Devices because (i) the Virgin Islands Residence was the location of multiple photo shoots of young girls; (ii) the Virgin Islands Residence appears to have been, for the last several years and up until the time of his arrest, EPSTEIN's primary residence; and (iii) given its location, the Virgin Islands Residence is JEFFREY EPSTEIN's most private residence. Therefore, given that EPSTEIN has maintained evidence of the Subject Offenses in the New York Residence, he is likely to have similarly maintained some of that evidence in the Subject Devices maintained at the Virgin Islands Residence. Moreover, given that there is probable cause to believe that JEFFREY EPSTEIN and others, including conspired to commit the Subject Offenses, evidence of EPSTEIN's involvement in trafficking minors would also be relevant to the investigation of, and any future charges against, other members of the conspiracy, such as 33. According to international flight records that I have reviewed, a private jet owned and utilized by Epstein has traveled to or from the U.S. Virgin Islands at least on or about April 19 2017.08.02 EFTA00247229 14, 2019; May 5, 2019; May 18, 2019; and June 11, 2019. Accordingly, there is probable cause to believe that EPSTEIN was present at the Virgin Islands Residence a short time before the recovery of the Subject Devices. 34. Based on my training and experience in investigating individuals who engage in sex trafficking of minors, and who sexually exploit minors, such individuals often maintain photographs of their victims, and/or other erotic images of minors, at their residences. Individuals who engage in such offenses often hoard such images in the privacy of their residences. In particular, data related to their illegal activity is often stored on their computers. 35. In my training and experience, individuals who store nude and/or sexually suggestive photographs of minors on compact discs or other external storage devices typically access those images from computers and other electronic devices in order to view those images, and individuals who store such materials on compact discs typically store similar files on other computing devices and storage devices. 36. Like individuals engaged in any other kind of activity, individuals who engage in sex trafficking of minors store records relating to their illegal activity and to persons involved with them in that activity on electronic devices such as the Subject Device. Such records can include, for example, logs of online communications with co-conspirators; email correspondence; contact information of co-conspirators, including telephone numbers, email addresses, and identifiers for instant messaging and social medial accounts; travel records for victims and/or co-conspirators; payment records for victims and/or co-conspirators; and/or photographs of victims and/or co- conspirators. Individuals engaged in criminal activity often store such records in order to, among other things, (1) keep track of co-conspirator's contact information; (2) keep a record of illegal transactions for future reference; (3) remain in contact with co-conspirators and victims; (4) enable 20 2017.08.02 EFTA00247230
