Summary

Internal USANYS email chain from October 2020 discussing discovery obligations in the Epstein case. Attorneys discuss a conversation with an original FBI agent from the Florida investigation who possesses emails exchanged with a former AUSA and communications from victims/witnesses. The team concludes they likely do not need to collect the AUSA emails as they were already covered by an OPR collection, but the agent will send victim/witness emails and other potential discovery material.

This seems right to me. First, this goes beyond what we said we would do or told the court we would do.
Second, in any event they are separately gathering any potentially relevant emails from the agent with victims.
Third, we have no reason to believe there were significant gaps in retention or collection for [Redacted], such
that any of his emails would be in what we already have.

Subject: Question re emails
Chiefs,
Today, we spoke with SA [Redacted], one of the original FBI agents from the Florida investigation of Epstein. [Redacted]
told us he has a number of emails with AUSA [Redacted] regarding the case. Our view is that we do not need to collect
those emails from [Redacted] because we have already received thousands of [Redacted] emails, which were collected by
OPR and should encompass any emails with the FBI about the Epstein case. [Redacted] is going to send us any emails he
received from victims or witnesses. We also discussed other documents [Redacted] has in his possession from the Epstein
investigation and asked him to send us any that sounded potentially discoverable.
Please let us know if this approach sounds right to you or if you would like to discuss.
Thanks,
[Redacted]
