Jeffrey Epstein Story in the New York Times Is Very, Very
|
| 3 |
+
Strange
|
| 4 |
+
We keep re-reading the story on Jeffrey Epstein in the New York Times, trying to decide what it is that
|
| 5 |
+
makes it read so queer. It's not just that it took the paper so long to come around with a story. It's not just
|
| 6 |
+
that this story appears now with almost no breaking news hook. There's something weird about the
|
| 7 |
+
structure of the thing.
|
| 8 |
+
The headline. "Questions of Preferential Treatment Are Raised in Sex Case Against Money Manager" We're
|
| 9 |
+
already off onto a meta-story story here. A more straight forward report would be headed "Accusations of
|
| 10 |
+
Sex Crimes Made Against Money Manager." The Times, however, goes with the secondary question—
|
| 11 |
+
whether or not Epstein is getting preferential treatment in the case.
|
| 12 |
+
The lede. Abby Goodnough begins not with the charges against Epstein but with the image of police
|
| 13 |
+
sneaking around through his garbage and phone records. This is how you might begin a screenplay about
|
| 14 |
+
Epstein but in a news story, well, it has the effect of pushing Epstein's alleged misdeeds into the
|
| 15 |
+
background.
|
| 16 |
+
The body. In what follows, the Times devotes a total of 437 words to the allegations against Epstein,
|
| 17 |
+
around 250 words to allegations that Epstein received preferential treatment and around 236 words to
|
| 18 |
+
quoting or summarizing the arguments of Epstein's lawyers. So, if the story itself is pretty balanced between
|
| 19 |
+
the actual allegations and the allegations about the allegations, why does the headline and the lead imply
|
| 20 |
+
the real story here is about the treatment of Epstein rather than what he's alleged to have done?
|
| 21 |
+
Maybe the possibility of a corrupt prosecution is more interesting to the Times but surely it deserves to be
|
| 22 |
+
placed behind the coverage of the allegations themselves. Are ink-and-paper journalists so convinced that
|
| 23 |
+
the "cover-up is worse than the crime" that they don't care so much about the crimes anymore?
|
| 24 |
+
Look. We're glad the Times finally decided the story was fit to print-although we wonder what could have
|
| 25 |
+
possibly taken them so long. And what's more, we wonder why they're coverage is so, well, poorly focused.

As It Turns Out, Jeffrey Epstein Actually Exists
|
| 29 |
+
There were a few moments now and then when we started to wonder whether we were hallucinating
|
| 30 |
+
Jeffrey Epstein. After all, if the New York Times wasn't reporting on the story it couldn't really be happening,
|
| 31 |
+
could it? This is the paper that printed dozens upon dozens of articles on the Augusta National Golf Club's
|
| 32 |
+
exclusion of women-complete with howler headlines breaking non-news such as "CBS Refuses Not To
|
| 33 |
+
Show Masters"-and if they've got room for that sort of thing, surely at some point over the summer they
|
| 34 |
+
might have found room to print one story about the prostitution charges against the mysterious money
|
| 35 |
+
So you can imagine our relief Sunday morning when we woke up to discover that we had been right all
|
| 36 |
+
along. The Jeffrey Epstein story is happening. It is news worthy. It is fit to print. And we know all this
|
| 37 |
+
because it is, finally, in the New York Times.

¡Epstein's Taint: Spitzer Returns

Jeff Epstein cannot seem to catch a break. Yesterday more New Mexican politicians dumped his campaign

contributions. Today the New York Sun reports that Eliot Spitzer sent back a whopping $50,000 contribution
|
| 53 |

from Epstein. When even politicians don't want your money, you know you are in serious trouble. And
|
| 54 |

Epstein cannot even call his usual masseuses to relieve the stress.

More New Mexican Pols Dumping Epstein Money
|
| 58 |
+
The ickieness of Jeff Epstein crept quietly into New Mexican politics but it's now being loudly kicked out.
|
| 59 |
+
New Mexico's Democratic Land Commissioner candidate Jim Baca announced earlier today in DealBreaker's
|
| 60 |
+
comment section that he will donate to charity the money his campaign got from Epstein. Santa Fe Sheriff
|
| 61 |
+
Greg Solano-who got $2000 from Epstein-has decided to make $1000 donations to two local charities,
|
| 62 |
+
despite the fact that his primary campaign left him in debt. Both men have reportedly denied ever having
|
| 63 |
+
met Epstein.

Does Ken Stevens Have A Secret? The Jeffrey Epstein
|
| 69 |
+
Connection
|
| 70 |
+
The Limited Brands-the parent company of Victoria's Secret, Limited Express and Bath & Bodyworks—is
|
| 71 |
+
losing its CFO, Ken Stevens. After only two months in the post, Stevens is resigning to "spend more time
|
| 72 |
+
with his family."
|
| 73 |
+
EFTA00067273
|
| 74 |
+
|
| 75 |
+
Here's another, completely speculative theory sparked by Stevens lame explanation. The
|
| 76 |
+
CEO of the Limited is Les Wexner, who just happens to be Jeffrey Epstein's only confirmed client. We can
|
| 77 |
+
magine that these days it would be uncomfortable running the financial aspects of a company whose chie
|
| 78 |
+
vas so closely connected with Epstein. Is there a connection between Epstein's legal troubles and Stevens
|
| 79 |
+
resignation? Unfortunately, Stevens did not return calls from DealBreaker seeking clarification.

Why I'm Keeping Jeffrey Epstein's Money: Sheriff Greg Solano
|
| 83 |
+
Explains
|
| 84 |
+
The short answer: because being sheriff makes him poor.
|
| 85 |
+
Steve Terrell, political reporter for The Santa Fe New Mexican called me tonight to get my comments on the
|
| 86 |
+
indictment. He asked me whether I would be returning the money he donated to my campaign. I received
|
| 87 |
+
the $2000 donation in August of 2005 and used it for the June 2006 Primary Campaign. I completed the
|
| 88 |
+
June Primary having spent all donations and actually ending the campaign over $2000 in debt. That debt
|
| 89 |
+
means that the remaining money was paid out of my pocket. So the short answer is there is nothing left to
|
| 90 |
+
return. It is now nearly a year since I recieved the donation and the campaign for Sheriff is over and done.
|
| 91 |
+
As I have no Republican opponent I will not have to wage a General Election Campaign. I did not plan on
|
| 92 |
+
any further fundraising although some who read in my campaign reports that I had ended with a debt
|
| 93 |
+
offered to raise some additional money to clear the debt. If I did have the money I probably would return it
|
| 94 |
+
or give it to a charity as the $2000, returned to Mr. Epstein who is a billionaire would probably not mean

Jeffrey Epstein's Legal Immunity: Maybe It's Politics
|
| 98 |
+
Jeffrey Epstein has some powerful friends but it seems he's made some pretty vocal enemies as well. Last
|
| 99 |
+
night Bill O'Reilly apparently delivered his "Memo" on the subject of the Epstein prosecution-charging
|
| 100 |
+
prosecutor Krischer with political bias. The gist of it is that Krischer was the prosecutor responsible for
|
| 101 |
+
bringing charges of drug abuse against Rush Limbaugh, but now seems to be going easy on Epstein. You
|
| 102 |
+
get the picture tough on Republicans, easy on Democrats. Here's O'Reilly on the Epstein situation.
|
| 103 |
+
Politics does play a role in local prosecutions, no question about it. And when you examine how much time
|
| 104 |
+
and effort state attorney Krischer put into trying to ruin Rush Limbaugh as opposed to what he's doing now
|
| 105 |
+
in the far more serious case of Jeffrey Epstein? Many, many questions come to mind and none of those
|
| 106 |
+
questions reflect well on Barry Krischer.
|
| 107 |
+
Ugh. We hope this isn't what is going on. There's nothing more boring than a debate about political biases.

Epstein's Defense Tactic-Smear Everyone
|
| 113 |
+
It's tough to tell from our safe remove in lower Manhattan exactly what's been going on down in Palm
|
| 114 |
+
Beach between the prosecutors and the police. The Florida prosecutors didn't charge Jeffrey Epstein
|
| 115 |
+
directly-perhaps because Epstein's legal dream team intimidated them convinced them that the girls police
|
| 116 |
+
had interviewed were not credible witnesses-and the grand jury chose only to indict Epstein for solicitation.
|
| 117 |
+
While that charge is still a felony, it is far less serious than the sex with minors charges police had sought.
|
| 118 |
+
What's more, the grand jury neglected to charge Epstein's assistant |
|
| 119 |
+
had an instrumental role in setting up the sessions with underage girls, with anything at all. Frustrated with
|
| 120 |
+
the local prosecutors, the police have now turned the case over to the FBI in an attempt to have federal
|
| 121 |
+
prosecutors bring more serious charges.
|
| 122 |
+
So, of course, Epstein's lawyers have gone beyond smearing the girls who allegedly spent time nearly naked
|
| 123 |
+
rubbing lotion into the money manager while he rubbed one out into a towel. They are also attacking Palm
|
| 124 |
+
Beach Police Chief Epstein, Michael Reiter, 53. They've referred to the chief's pursuit of Epstein as
|
| 125 |
+
"craziness," and characterized his dispute with prosecutors as "childish." Someone has also been spreading
|
| 126 |
+
rumors that Reiter is involved in a "messy divorce"—which is disgusting non-sequitur that seems clearly
|
| 127 |
+
intended to intimidate Reiter into back off the case.
|
| 128 |
+
As we said, it's tough to tell exactly what is going on from this remove. But the Palm Beach Post, which is
|
| 129 |
+
one of the few mainstream newspapers covering this story in any detail, recently printed a story that seems
|
| 130 |
+
to refute the smears against Reiter. It paints as a well-respected professional. Oddly enough, however, the
|
| 131 |
+
prosecutor Reiter has sought to have removed from the case, State Attorney Barry Krischer, also seems to
|
| 132 |
+
be well respected. As we said, it's hard to tell what is going on down in the world of Palm Beach.
|
| 133 |
+
But what's not hard to see is that the Epstein defense has developed a pattern-painting everyone accusing
|
| 134 |
+
Epstein of crimes as disrespectable.

Jeffrey Epstein Sex Scandal Roils New Mexico Politics
|
| 138 |
+
Stick another pin into your map tracking the scandal surrounding Jeffrey Epstein. The governor of New
|
| 139 |
+
Mexico, Bill Richardson, is donating the campaign contributions he got from Epstein to local charities, a New
|
| 140 |
+
Mexico newspaper is reporting.
|
| 141 |
+
Epstein is said to own one of the largest private home in New Mexico, a 26,700-square-foot hilltop fortress
|
| 142 |
+
mansion on his Zorro ranch.
|
| 143 |
+
Epstein's been pretty active in New Mexican politics. He reportedly donated $50,000 for Richardson's 2002
|
| 144 |
+
campaign and another $50,000 to Richardson's re-election campaign this year, $15,000 to attorney genera
|
| 145 |
+
andidate Gary King, $10,000 to state land commissioner candidate Jim Baca and $2,000 to Santa Fe
|
| 146 |
+
ounty Sheriff Greg Solano. King says he'll dump the Epstein tainted money, Baca said he is discussing
|
| 147 |
+
ith his campaign manager and Sheriff Solano says he has already spent the money and doesn't have ar

|

A note to King and Baca-you might think twice about actually giving the money back to
|
| 151 |
+
Epstein. As we noted before, who knows what he's going to use it for. Better to follow Richardson's
|
| 152 |
+
example and we're not saying he picked up the idea from DealBreaker but we secretly suspect he did-and
|
| 153 |
+
give the money to charity.

FBI Mulling Jeffrey Epstein Investigation
|
| 157 |
+
Jeffrey Epstein may be headed for more legal trouble. The New York Post's Dan Mangan is reporting that
|
| 158 |
+
touched them with vibrators. It is also alleged that in at least one incident he paid a girl $1,000 after he
|
| 159 |
+
forcibly penetrated her. Epstein is also alleged to have employed a "sex slave" he allegedly claimed to have
|
| 160 |
+
purchased from her family in eastern Europe to have sex with one of his untrained masseuses while he
|
| 161 |
+
watched.
|
| 162 |
+
Palm Beach police, frustrated with what they reportedly view as a lack of dedication on the part of local
|
| 163 |
+
prosecutors, have turned information over to the FBI. Mangan breaks news in his story by getting word
|
| 164 |
+
from an FBI investigator that the feds are indeed following up on the case.

Jeffrey Epstein: The Story So Far
|
| 169 |
+
This morning's Palm Beach Post carries a lengthy article on Jeffrey Epstein. It mostly tracks what you've
|
| 170 |
+
already read here or elsewhere but is worth reading if you haven't followed all the details. Among the
|
| 171 |
+
highlights:
|
| 172 |
+
Background.
|
| 173 |
+
• Jeffrey Epstein's early career at Dalton and Bear Stearns.
|
| 174 |
+
• His earlier disputes with former business partners and Citigroup.
|
| 175 |
+
• Rumors that he left Bear Stearns under an SEC inquiry cloud.
|
| 176 |
+
• Also rumored to have been a spook of some sort.
|
| 177 |
+
• Mentored by Steven Hoffenberg "now serving a prison term after "bilking investors out of more than $450
|
| 178 |
+
million in one of the largest Ponzi schemes in American history.'
|
| 179 |
+
• His real estate: private island, huge townhouse in Manhattan, gigantic in new Mexico and a alleged
|
| 180 |
+
teenage petting zoo mansion in Palm Beach.
|
| 181 |
+
• Powerful friends: top scientists, former Harvard president Larry Summers, Daily News publisher Mort
|
| 182 |
+
Zuckerman and Bill Clinton.
|
| 183 |
+
• Thought to have 15 clients but only one is known-the Wexner family, founders of The Limited clothing
|
| 184 |
+
stores.
|
| 185 |
+
EFTA00067276
|
| 186 |
+
|
| 187 |
+
Women.
|
| 188 |
+
• Long linked to media mogul Robert Maxwell's daughter Ghislaine Maxwell.
|
| 189 |
+
• Said to have also dated a former Miss Sweden and a Romanian model.
|
| 190 |
+
The Case.
|
| 191 |
+
• Investigation began after a mother heard her daughter discussing trips to Epstein's place and contacted
|
| 192 |
+
police
|
| 193 |
+
• Private investigators working for Epstein contacted witnesses during the investigation.
|
| 194 |
+
• Disputes arose between prosecutors and police.
|
| 195 |
+
• An early plea bargain which would have kept Epstein out of jail fell apart
|
| 196 |
+
• Alan Dershowitz flew to Palm Beach to paint the girls making the allegations against Epstein as lying
|
| 197 |
+
thieving, drug and alcohol abusing and unreliable.
|
| 198 |
+
• The "Heidi Fleiss" of Palm Beach is alleged to have brought six girls between ages 14 and 18 to Epstein's
|
| 199 |
+
house for massages.
|
| 200 |
+
While admitting that Epstein had girls over to administer massages, Epstein's camp maintains he is innocent
|
| 201 |
+
of any criminal wrong-doing. One of his lawyers even insists Epstein will emerge from the case with his
|
| 202 |
+
reputation untarnished.

Clearly, This Is When A Private Plane Comes In Handy
|
| 206 |
+
Jossip-which along with DealBreaker, Gawker and the Palm Beach Post is just about the only media outlet
|
| 207 |
+
covering the Jeffrey Epstein story—notes that terrorists have totally screwed any plans Epstein might have
|
| 208 |
+
had to fly commercial this weekend. No batteries or liquids allowed on planes?
|
| 209 |
+
Which more or less means Jeffrey Epstein's weekend is totally fucked. How can he enjoy a night of petting
|
| 210 |
+
zoo on his private jet without massage oils and working vibrators? Talk about inconvenience.
|
| 211 |
+
Ah. Poor innocent Jossip. Epstein doesn't fly commercial and you can bring whatever you want onto your
|
| 212 |
+
private jet. This is what private planes are for. So even terrorists can't fuck with your travel plans.
|
| 213 |
+
[Note: As we've said before, everything seems dirty when it is about Epstein, even perfectly ordinary
|
| 214 |
+
hrases like "comes in handy." Even "Palm Beach Post" is kind of icky and we're not sure why. We're sorry
|
| 215 |
+
hat's not out fault. It's either Eostein's or those Iving little drua addict sluts
|
| 216 |
+
[Another note: Shouldn't we have gone with some version of "If Epstein can't travel with lube and vibrators,
|
| 217 |
+
the terrorists win?*-Ed. Uhm, are we still using that joke? If that hasn't jumped the shark, I just threw up
|
| 218 |
+
in my mouth a little. Very funny. If we can still do these '—Ed' jokes, I think we can still do the terrorists win
|
| 219 |
+
jokes.—Ed. I hope meta is still funny.]

Epstein Got Off Too Easy, Palm Beach Post Says
|
| 223 |
+
EFTA00067277
|
| 224 |
+
|
| 225 |
+
Why didn't prosecutors charge Jeffrey Epstein with more serious crimes? The police reports
|
| 226 |
+
include allegations of sexually-tinged massages with girls as young as 14, human trafficking and something
|
| 227 |
+
that seems a lot like rape to us. But he gets slapped with nothing more than a single solicitation charge
|
| 228 |
+
after prosecutors referred the case to a grand jury.
|
| 229 |
+
So what happened? It seems that Epstein's high-powered legal team crafted an ingenious and original
|
| 230 |
+
"drunk, drug-addled lying sluts" defense and intimidated the prosecutors out of bringing charges. Here's
|
| 231 |
+
how the Palm Beach Post puts it:
|
| 232 |
+
The girls, Mr. Dershowitz told prosecutors, had written on myspace.com about smoking marijuana and
|
| 233 |
+
drinking alcohol. But if the girls have a credibility problem, what about Jeffrey Epstein? Mr. Goldberger, told
|
| 234 |
+
The Post: "Mr. Epstein absolutely insisted anybody who came to his house be over the age of 18. How he
|
| 235 |
+
verified that, I don't know." And prosecutors took him at his word?
|
| 236 |
+
A more charitable way to look at the situation is that prosecutors may have been hesitant to put teenage
|
| 237 |
+
girls on the stand knowing that Epstein's lawyers would likely turn his trial into a forum for attacks on their
|
| 238 |
+
characters, sexual history and allegations of drug use and prostitution.

Jeffrey Epstein Fights Back: "These women are liars."
|
| 242 |
+
leffrey Epstein has launched an army of lawyers and publicists to clear his name and smear the girls who
|
| 243 |
+
lave accused him of sexual improprieties and solicitation, the Palm Beach Post reports this morning. Here's
|
| 244 |
+
a quick look at the line coming out from Epstein's camp.
|
| 245 |
+
In Epstein's army: attorneys Jack Goldberger, Alan Dershowitz and. Roy Black. New York publicist Dan
|
| 246 |
+
Klores and an unnamed Los Angeles publicist.
|
| 247 |
+
The spin: these girls are liars, thieves and drug-users. The Palm Beach police are on a childish vendetta.
|
| 248 |
+
What Epstein's camp admits: Epstein did have young women over to his house to administer massages
|
| 249 |
+
There is no explanation for why he was paying untrained girls upwards of $200 for massages
|
| 250 |
+
What they're denying: That Epstein had any knowledge the girls were underage or that Epstein had sex with
|
| 251 |
+
any underage girls.
|
| 252 |
+
There's a gap between what has been alleged and what is being denied, and that gap might be informative.
|
| 253 |
+
Even if Epstein didn't 'have sex' with the girls, did he have them strip and did he masturbate while they
|
| 254 |
+
massaged him?
|
| 255 |
+
Ugh. Suddenly we're back in Clinton-Lewinsky territory, trying to guess at what the meaning of 'sex' is.

Joe Francis and The Girls Gone Wild Theory of Jeff
|
| 261 |
+
Epstein
|
| 262 |
+
Joe Francis, the man who built an empire on young girls exposing themselves for his "Girls Gone Wild"
|
| 263 |
+
videos, offers a completely self-serving theory about entrepreneurialism and sex to a writer for the LA Times
|
| 264 |
+
magazine.
|
| 265 |
+
"Sex sells everything," he says.
|
| 266 |
+
"It drives every buying decision ... I hate to get too deep and philosophical
|
| 267 |
+
here, but only the guys with the greatest sexual appetites are the ones who are the most driven and most
|
| 268 |
+
successful."
|
| 269 |
+
This was crap when we first heard it as the feminist theory of capitalism that successful businessmen were
|
| 270 |
+
imply acting out their rape fantasies on the economy. And it's truly disgusting crap coming from anyon
|
| 271 |
+
who does the things Joe Francis is alleged to have done in the article-assaulting a reporter, getting
|
| 272 |
+
teenager drunk and more-or-less raping her, and generally being an ass. No idea about how much of this
|
| 273 |
+
story is accurate but if even if it's dimes-from-dollars, it's awful stuff.
|
| 274 |
+
We couldn't help but remember that Jeffrey Epstein is reportedly interested in alternative theories of
|
| 275 |
+
evolutionary psychology. Maybe he and Joe should get in touch with each other.

Today in Jeffrey Epstein: He Thinks You Are An Insect.
|
| 279 |
+
We feel awful for letting you down yesterday. An entire day without a post on Jeffrey Epstein. No one
|
| 280 |
+
should have to tolerate that kind of neglect. Unless, you know, they get their news from the New York
|
| 281 |
+
Times.
|
| 282 |
+
A blogger at Verum Serum asks whether Epstein's interest in alternatives to evolutionary psychology and the
|
| 283 |
+
work of E.O. Wilson might offer an insight into his alleged behavor:
|
| 284 |
+
My question about all this is simple. Is there a connection between the two threads in Jeffrey Epstein's life?
|
| 285 |
+
Between his scientific beliefs about human nature and his behavior toward women (and girls)? Put another
|
| 286 |
+
vay, when you see people as something akin to insects, does that alter your behavior toward them? Whe
|
| 287 |
+
rou see human trust and kindness as merely adaptive behaviors, does that render you less trustworthy
|
| 288 |
+
We'll answer all four questions. Yes. Yes. Yes. No.

It's three o'clock already and we haven't even mentioned Jeffrey Epstein. We'd feel like we
|
| 296 |
+
were neglecting our journalistic duties but that might make the nice folks at New York Times feel lazy.
|
| 297 |
+
They've never once mentioned Jeffrey Epstein since the sex scandal broke, as Jossip points out.
|
| 298 |
+
So, fine. We are going to be obsessive ...And we are going to point out - yet again - that a very rich and
|
| 299 |
+
powerful man was accused of some really terrible things ... and the New York Times has officially let a week
|
| 300 |
+
go by without a single mention of his name.
|
| 301 |
+
Come on, Jossip. That's unfair. We're sure they mean to get around to the story. It's just so hard to find
|
| 302 |
+
room in the paper when it is so packed with hard news.

Jeffrey Epstein and Those Nobel Prize Winning Orgiasts
|
| 306 |
+
As we mentioned earlier today, over on the very, very much Not Safe For Work Moneyshot blog, the
|
| 307 |
+
pseudonymous Shermon McCoy claims that he's been at Jeffrey Epstein parties in which Nobel prize winners
|
| 308 |
+
and various wealthy folks were all surrounded by young, "nude eastern european girls, frolicking with them,
|
| 309 |
+
and then proceeding into one big orgy party." Uhm, okay. So who were these Nobel prize winners? So far
|
| 310 |
+
we haven't been able to confirm anything.
|
| 311 |
+
But we have uncovered published reports about a boondoggle orgy physics symposium in St. Thomas that
|
| 312 |
+
Epstein organized, which was attended by Nobel prize winners Gerardus't Hooft, David Gross and Frank
|
| 313 |
+
Wilczek, and physicist Stephen Hawking. We don't want to suggest that Hawking got all freaky with
|
| 314 |
+
Epstein's alleged sex-slave. Or that anyone did anything wrong or unbecoming. Or that any of these physics
|
| 315 |
+
guys have ever had sex with anyone, for that matter.
|
| 316 |
+
But the story does suggest it wasn't all equations and string theory.
|
| 317 |
+
Delegates from the University of the Virgin Islands and Antilles School also attended the reception, where a
|
| 318 |
+
few free spirited physicists braved the dance floor.
|
| 319 |
+
"There is no agenda except fun and physics, and that's fun with a capital 'F, Epstein said.
|
| 320 |
+
Before the Epstein story broke we might have read that with a straight face. Now we cannot help but
|
| 321 |
+
wonder exactly who these "delegates" were. Were they professors? Or students? And why do we think that
|
| 322 |
+
the capital "F" wasn't just for fun?
|
| 323 |
+
That's probably completely unfair. But like we said before. In light of the allegations, everything we read
|
| 324 |
+
about Epstein seems creepy.

According to the anonymous author of TheMoneyShot, Shermon McCoy (har), our
|
| 332 |
+
flood-the-zone coverage of Jeffrey Epstein's alleged personal pubescent predilictions
|
| 333 |
+
is entirely based on one thing: we're jealous!
|
| 334 |
+
All these people are, I suspect, just slightly jealous that they were never invited to a
|
| 335 |
+
Epstein party.** Being one of those privy to just such an event- barely-legal (I hope!)
|
| 336 |
+
Russian girls and all- I can say that I understand why. There really is nothing else I
|
| 337 |
+
have ever experienced quite like it. Nobel prize winners, a bunch of people intimately
|
| 338 |
+
involved in ... cough! cough! Numerix cough! and cough! Prediction Company cough!
|
| 339 |
+
cough!, Jeff himself, and some rich people who really don't matter- all surrounded by
|
| 340 |
+
EYES WIDE SHUT
|
| 341 |
+
18-, 19-, and 20- (again, I hope!) year old nude eastern european girls, frolicking
|
| 342 |
+
with them, and then proceeding into one big orgy party. It was really strikingly
|
| 343 |
+
similar to Eyes Wide Shut. Without the costumes, that is.
|
| 344 |
+
Well, Sherman, we'll admit that we're jealous of your blog idea. Porn and finance! At the same time! Two
|
| 345 |
+
great tastes that go great together. Why didn't we think of that?***
|
| 346 |
+
it more importantly, we're deeply curious about which Nobel prize winners have been known to froli
|
| 347 |
+
ans tweed with nude Eastern European girls. And we're curious about the rich people who don't matter a
|
| 348 |
+
well. C'mon! Give us a hint!
|
| 349 |
+
** Well, that's a little presumptuous, Sherman.
|
| 350 |
+
*** No, seriously. Why didn't we think of that? Minkin? Carney?

The Perfect Storm, DealBreaker Style
|
| 354 |
+
We've been spending some time trying to clear away the murk and shine some light into the shadows of
|
| 355 |
+
Jeffrey Epstein's financial dealings in an effort to provide some, uhm, actual financial reporting related to
|
| 356 |
+
the sex candal encircling the mysterious money manager. There's not much that is publicly available but
|
| 357 |
+
we're still digging.
|
| 358 |
+
What we have discovered, however, is a brief document amending a credit agreement for RELIANT
|
| 359 |
+
PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. The amendment replaces the administrative agent for the credit. But what caught
|
| 360 |
+
our eye was the confluence of three DealBreaker subjects all in the same documents.
|
| 361 |
+
The signature pages include lines for Morgan Stanley CEO John Mack, who is scheduled to appear before
|
| 362 |
+
obsession, Hank Paulson).
|
| 363 |
+
Now this is no doubt just a coincidence, and not really a conspiracy to make our heads explode. We should
|
| 364 |
+
probably just take a deep breath and then post a Venn Diagram illustrating the connections but our
|
| 365 |
+
diagramist is in meetings off-site.
|
| 366 |
+
One additional thought: this is probably the last time you'll see Epstein's name coupled with the words
|
| 367 |
+
"trust" and "children" any time in the near future.

Jeffrey Epstein's Been Around Young Girls Before
|
| 374 |
+
Does the fact that Jeffrey Epstein taught high school math and physics at Dalton for three
|
| 375 |
+
years creep anyone else out? Unless you've been depending on the New York Times for your
|
| 376 |
+
news, by now you know that Jeffrey Epstein has been charged with felony solicitation of
|
| 377 |
+
osutton ratner than even more serious charges of molestation and sex with minors. But the facts allege
|
| 378 |
+
the police affidavit released on the Smoking Gun clearly spell out a taste for getting voung. hiah scho
|
| 379 |
+
age girls to co-operate in some pretty raunchy scenarios. This raises the question: how long has this been
|
| 380 |
+
Did you go to Dalton in the mid-seventies? Epstein taught there from 1973 through 1975, when he left to
|
| 381 |
+
take a job at Bear Stearns. We'd love to hear from you if you remember Epstein from those years, whatever
|
| 382 |
+
your impressions-good, bad, ugly or totally perverse. Unless otherwise indicated, we'll keep your
|
| 383 |
+

[* Editors Note: We know, we know. It may not have gone on at all. Everyone is innocent until proven
|
| 385 |
+
guilty. God loves all his little creatures. The allegations and charges are serious, though, and we don't think
|
| 386 |
+
it's too early to start asking these questions.]

On further reflection, maybe giving money back to Jeffrey
|
| 389 |
+
Epstein isn't such a good plan
|
| 390 |
+
Why are Mark Green and Eliot Spitzer handing $60,000.00 over to alleged money manager cum massage
|
| 391 |
+
masturbator Jeffrey Epstein? It's pretty standard procedure these days for politicians to send back
|
| 392 |
+
contributions from donors accused of crime or mired in scandal, and we quess allegations of soliciting
|
| 393 |
+
prostitution, paying for naked massages from teenagers, human trafficking and all around pervy weirdness
|
| 394 |
+
qualify. But is sending the check back really the right move here? Wouldn't it be better to donate the money
|
| 395 |
+
to a worthy cause, such a home for sexually abused children? Why should Epstein be enriched by these
|
| 396 |
+
allegations?
|
| 397 |
+
Let's put it this way. By sending back Epstein's $10,000 donation, Attorney General candidate Green just
|
| 398 |
+
bought Epstein 50 sessions with local highshool girls at $200 a pop.

Epstein is alleged to have paid to strip and massaged him while he pawed at them and masturbated into a

towel, the eastern european blonde was a different kind of participant. Older, more sophisticated, at least a

little lezzy and wearing stap-on dildos. That sort of thing. Just the sort of woman you'd imagine an evil

As it turns out, that sort of woman probably only exists in fiction. Gawker is now reporting that according to

| 428 |

a previously unpublished Palm Beach police document, Epstein bragged that he purchased
|
| 429 |

family in Yugoslavia, and that she was his sex slave. So she may be another victim of Epstein's alleged sex-

and girls-for-money racket.

The weird thing is that

In Retrospect, Everything Ever Said About Jeffrey Epstein
|
| 466 |
+
Seems Creepy
|
| 467 |
+
EFTA00067284
|
| 468 |
+
|
| 469 |
+
If you spend even a few moments reading the probable cause affidavit detailing mysterious money manager
|
| 470 |
+
Jeffrey Epstein's alleged penchant for paying naked teenagers to massage him while he, uhm, whacked-off,
|
| 471 |
+
everything else you read about him starts to seem creepy too.
|
| 472 |
+
There's the now famous line in New York magazine's profile. You know, the one where Donald Trump is
|
| 473 |
+
quoted as saying about Epstein, "He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women
|
| 474 |
+
as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it -- Jeffrey enjoys his social
|
| 475 |
+
life. " Wow. That's awkward now.
|
| 476 |
+
But it doesn't stop there. One thing that's clear from the affidavit is that Epstein's assistant
|
| 477 |
+
alleged to have played a central role in procuring the high school girls who rubbed him down for a couple of
|
| 478 |
+
hundred dollars a pop. She's said to have called the girls when Epstein was in town, got them situated in his
|
| 479 |
+
bedroom and even passed around refreshing beverages for the girls to enjoy.
|
| 480 |
+
As it turns out, one of the rare journalism interviews Epstein has given involved his executive assistants. The
|
| 481 |
+
New York Times story "Working for Top Bosses on Wall St. Has Its Perks" (cough, pimping, cough) is now
|
| 482 |
+
hidden safely from prying eyes behind the Times Select firewall but DealBreaker has boldy shelled out the
|
| 483 |
+
Abe Lincoln to bring the story to our readers. After the jump, we bring you the excerpts with emphasis and
|
| 484 |

nasty asides added.

Re:

+
United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell, S2 20 Cr. 330 (AJN)
|
| 16 |
+
Dear Judge Nathan:
|
| 17 |
+
The Government writes to notify the Court that today, a Grand Jury sitting in Manhattan
|
| 18 |
+
returned a superseding indictment in the above-captioned case (the "S2 Indictment").' The
|
| 19 |
+
Government respectfully submits this letter (1) to identify the differences between the charges
|
| 20 |
+
contained in the S2 Indictment and the charges contained in the prior indictment, S1 20 Cr. 330
|
| 21 |
+
(AJN) (the "S1 Indictment"); (2) to address the impact, if any, of the S2 Indictment on the status
|
| 22 |
+
of discovery and other disclosures; and (3) to address the impact of the S2 Indictment on the
|
| 23 |
+
currently pending motions.
|
| 24 |
+
' The Government noted in its February 26, 2021 Omnibus Memorandum of Law in Opposition
|
| 25 |
+
to the Defendant's Pretrial Motions that its investigation remained ongoing and that the
|
| 26 |
+
Government would seek a superseding indictment no later than three months prior to trial. At this
|
| 27 |
+
juncture, while the Government's investigation is still ongoing, if trial remains set for July 12,
|
| 28 |
+
2021 as scheduled, then the Government does not intend to seek any further indictments in this
|
| 29 |
+
case. To the extent the Government uncovers additional evidence that it may seek to introduce at
|
| 30 |
+
trial, it will promptly disclose such evidence to the defense as either Rule 16 or Jencks Act material.
|
| 31 |
+
Additionally, the Government remains cognizant that its Brady obligations remain ongoing and
|
| 32 |
+
will promptly disclose any exculpatory evidence of which it becomes aware.

I.
|
| 37 |
+
Comparison of the S1 Indictment and the S2 Indictment
|
| 38 |
+
Count One of the S2 Indictment charges the defendant with participating in a conspiracy
|
| 39 |
+
to entice minors to travel, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371, which is the same statutory violation as
|
| 40 |
+
Count One of the S1 Indictment. Whereas Count One of the S1 Indictment alleged that this
|
| 41 |
+
conspiracy lasted through in or about 1997, Count One of the S2 Indictment alleges that the
|
| 42 |
+
conspiracy continued through in or about 2004 and specifically identifies a fourth victim, Minor
|
| 43 |
+
Victim-4, who was a vietim of this conspiracy between approximately 2001 and 2004.
|
| 44 |
+
Count Two of the S2 Indictment remains identical to Count Two of the S1 Indictment and
|
| 45 |
+
is unchanged.
|
| 46 |
+
Count Three of the S2 Indictment charges the defendant with participating in a conspiracy
|
| 47 |
+
to transport minors, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371, which is the same statutory violation as Count
|
| 48 |
+
Three of the S1 Indictment. Whereas Count Three of the S1 Indictment alleged that this conspiracy
|
| 49 |
+
lasted through in or about 1997, Count Three of the S2 Indictment alleges that the conspiracy
|
| 50 |
+
continued through in or about 2004 and specifically identifies a fourth victim, Minor Victim-4,
|
| 51 |
+
who was a victim of this conspiracy between approximately 2001 and 2004.
|
| 52 |
+
Count Four of the S2 Indictment remains identical to Count Four of the S1 Indictment and
|
| 53 |
+
is unchanged.
|
| 54 |
+
Count Five of the S2 Indictment adds a new charge against the defendant. In particular,
|
| 55 |
+
Count Five alleges that the defendant participated in a sex trafficking conspiracy between
|
| 56 |
+
approximately 2001 and 2004, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371. The S2 Indictment specifically
|
| 57 |
+
identifies Minor Vietim-4 as a victim of this conspiracy.

+

|

+
|
| 60 |
+
Page 3
|
| 61 |
+
Count Six of the S2 Indictment adds another new charge against the defendant. In
|
| 62 |
+
particular, Count Six alleges that the defendant participated in the sex trafficking of a minor, and
|
| 63 |
+
aided and abetted the same, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1591 and 2. The S2 Indictment
|
| 64 |
+
specifically identifies Minor Victim-4 as the victim of this count.
|
| 65 |
+
Count Seven of the S2 Indictment is identical to Count Five of the S1 Indictment and is
|
| 66 |
+
otherwise unchanged.
|
| 67 |
+
Count Eight of the S2 Indictment is identical to Count Six of the S1 Indictment and is
|
| 68 |
+
otherwise unchanged.
|
| 69 |
+
Il.
|

+
Disclosures
|
| 71 |
+
The Government has already produced to the defense all material that constitutes Rule 16
|
| 72 |
+
discovery related to the new allegations and charges contained in the S2 Indictment. In particular,
|
| 73 |
+
the Government has from the outset approached its Rule 16 productions in this case as though the
|
| 74 |
+
allegations
|
| 75 |
+
covered a broader time period through at least 2005, rather than limiting those
|
| 76 |
+
productions to the time period alleged in the S1 Indictment (1994 to 1997). As a result, the
|
| 77 |
+
Government has already produced to the defense all Rule 16 material relevant to the S2 Indictment
|
| 78 |
+
of which it is aware in the Prosecution Team's possession. These Rule 16 materials included
|
| 79 |
+
productions from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI") Palm Beach Resident
|
| 80 |
+
Agency (the "FBI Florida Office"), the FBI New York Office, and the U.S. Attorney's Office for
|
| 81 |
+
the Southern District of New York.
|
| 82 |
+
To assist the defense in preparing for trial on the new allegations contained in the S2
|
| 83 |
+
Indictment, today the Government provided the defense with Minor Victim-4's month and year of
|
| 84 |
+
birth. Additionally, in order to aid the defense in its trial preparation and review of the discovery,
|
| 85 |
+
EFTA00080584
|
| 86 |
+
|
| 87 |
+
Page 4
|
| 88 |
+
today the Government provided the defense with a list of Bates ranges within the discovery
|
| 89 |
+
materials produced to date that are particularly relevant to Minor Victim-4. Although that list is
|
| 90 |
+
not exhaustive and does not include every document that may be relevant to Minor Vietim-4, it
|
| 91 |
+
identifies key pieces of evidence regarding this victim.
|
| 92 |
+
Additionally, in order to ensure that the defense has adequate time to prepare for trial, the
|
| 93 |
+
Government intends to begin its production to the defense of non-testifying witness statements by
|
| 94 |
+
April 12, 2021, approximately three months in advance of trial. This production will include the
|
| 95 |
+
statements of more than 250 witnesses related to the investigation of Jeffrey Epstein and his
|
| 96 |
+
associates in the Government's possession whom the Government does not currently expect to call
|
| 97 |
+
to testify at trial. The Government is continuing to review its files for witness statements and will
|
| 98 |
+
produce any additional non-testifying witness statements that come to light on a rolling basis as
|
| 99 |
+
promptly as possible in advance of trial.
|
| 100 |
+
Finally, given the expanded charges in the S2 Indictment, the Government is prepared to
|
| 101 |
+
produce Jencks Act and Giglio material for witnesses it expects to call at trial six weeks, rather
|
| 102 |
+
than four weeks, in advance of trial. These productions, together with the guidance provided to
|
| 103 |
+
the defense today regarding discovery relating to Minor Victim-4, should provide ample time for
|
| 104 |
+
the defense to prepare for trial and proceed as scheduled on July 12, 2021.
|
| 105 |
+
II.
|
| 106 |
+
Motions
|
| 107 |
+
In light of the new allegations and charges contained in the S2 Indictment, the Government
|
| 108 |
+
will meet and confer with defense counsel to discuss whether defense counsel wishes to bring
|
| 109 |
+
additional motions (or supplement existing motions) based on the S2 Indictment and, if so, to
|
| 110 |
+
discuss a proposed schedule for any additional briefing. Although the S2 Indictment should have
|
| 111 |
+
EFTA00080585
|
| 112 |
+
|
| 113 |
+
Page 5
|
| 114 |
+
no impact on several of the defendant's motions, such as the motions to suppress (Motion 3 and
|
| 115 |
+
Motion 11), the motion to dismiss the perjury counts (Motion 4), and the motion to strike
|
| 116 |
+
allegations regarding Minor Victim-3 as surplusage (Motion 6), the Government does not
|
| 117 |
+
anticipate objecting to any defense request to file supplemental briefing regarding any issue that is
|
| 118 |
+
implicated by the S2 Indictment. The Government also notes that the S2 Indictment was returned
|
| 119 |
+
by a grand jury sitting in Manhattan, rendering moot the defendant's motion to dismiss based on
|
| 120 |
+
the use of a grand jury sitting in White Plains (Motion 9).
|
| 121 |
+
Respectfully submitted,

Glad it went on at least.
|

+
We can bring a civil forfeiture against the properties IF we're within statute, which we may not be. We'll have to
|
| 11 |
+
look at it, but we've got some time, since I'm pretty sure no one's going to want to have that be was our
|
| 12 |
+
immediate reaction to his suicide. We can't pursue any kind of general money judgment against the estate - there
|
| 13 |
+
we're out of luck.

Jeffrey Epstein's Estate May Set Up a Program to Pay Accusers
|
| 12 |
+
A proposal for a "claims resolution program" was referred to in a court filing by a lawyer for a woman who accused the
|
| 13 |
+
financier of sexual abuse. Not all the plaintiffs' lawyers are on board.
|
| 14 |
+
By Matthew Goldstein
|
| 15 |
+
Nov. 13, 2019
|
| 16 |
+
Lawyers for Jeffrey Epstein's estate are considering setting up a program to resolve claims filed by women
|
| 17 |
+
who say they were abused by the financier, who killed himself in August while facing federal sex
|
| 18 |
+
trafficking charges.
|
| 19 |
+
The plan was disclosed in a court filing on Tuesday by a lawyer for one of Mr. Epstein's accusers, who is
|
| 20 |
+
suing the estate in federal court in Manhattan. The filing said lawyers for Mr. Epstein's estate had
|
| 21 |
+
informed plaintiffs that they were planning to disclose details of a "claims resolution program" to a court
|
| 22 |
+
in the United States Virgin Islands, where the mysteriously wealthy Mr. Epstein had his will filed shortly
|
| 23 |
+
before his death.
|
| 24 |
+
The estate has retained Kenneth R. Feinberg, the noted lawyer who specializes in compensating victims, to
|
| 25 |
+
set up the program, his team confirmed late Wednesday. His associates Camille Biros and Jordana
|
| 26 |
+
Feldman have also been tapped, and Ms. Feldman will carry out the plan once it is set up and if it meets
|
| 27 |
+
court approval. Ms. Biros has been an architect of programs to provide restitution to victims of the
|
| 28 |
+
Catholic Church abuse scandal. Ms. Feldman most recently played a critical role in overseeing the
|
| 29 |
+
administration of the September 11 Victims Compensation Fund.
|
| 30 |
+
But the proposal from lawyers for the estate, which is valued at about $577 million, was facing resistance
|
| 31 |
+
earlier in the day.
|
| 32 |
+
Bradley Edwards, the lawyer for the accuser, said in the court filing that his client "does not believe that
|
| 33 |
+
the use of any alternative dispute resolution should stay or modify the course of litigation in this matter."
|
| 34 |
+
A lawyer for the estate wrote to one accuser's lawyer and described the proposed program as "voluntary,"
|
| 35 |
+
according to emails reviewed by The New York Times. Even so, the accuser's lawyer, Roberta Kaplan,
|
| 36 |
+
objected to the plan's being put together without consulting with the accusers and their lawyers.
|
| 37 |
+
"Settlement, after all, is a two-way street," Ms. Kaplan said in an emailed response, which was also sent to
|
| 38 |
+
lawyers for other accusers. She said it was "astonishing" that the lawyers for Mr. Epstein's estate planned
|
| 39 |
+
to go to court in the Virgin Islands without first discussing the plan.
|
| 40 |
+
"In fact, it feels very much like a continuation of his crimes and abuse after his death," she wrote.
|
| 41 |
+
The emails were later included in a public court filing on Wednesday afternoon.
|
| 42 |
+
EFTA00040555
|
| 43 |
+
|
| 44 |
+
David Brodie, another accuser's lawyer, said that he was "cautiously optimistic" about the possible
|
| 45 |
+
resolution program, but that there were many questions about how claims would be handled.
|
| 46 |
+
"These women have already endured horrific abuse at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein and have waited many
|
| 47 |
+
years for justice," he said. "To turn their personal experiences over to one person selected by Jeffrey
|
| 48 |
+
Epstein's estate to make a binding decision (which may not be disputed) could be a process that may
|
| 49 |
+
exacerbate the victimization of these brave women."
|
| 50 |
+
Bennet Moskowitz, the lawyer hired by Mr. Epstein's estate to handle lawsuits by the accusers, did not
|
| 51 |
+
respond to requests for comment on the emails or the proposed resolution program.
|
| 52 |
+
The executors of Mr. Epstein's estate, Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn, also did not respond to a request
|
| 53 |
+
for comment. Mr. Indyke was Mr. Epstein's longtime lawyer in New York, and Mr. Kahn was an
|
| 54 |
+
accountant for some of his companies.
|
| 55 |
+
In the weeks since Mr. Epstein's death, lawsuits against the estate have been piling up.
|
| 56 |
+
On Tuesday, three new lawsuits were filed in Manhattan federal court by Mr. Epstein's accusers, including
|
| 57 |
+
separate lawsuits filed by two sisters
|
| 58 |
+
Their lawyer, David Boies, said he anticipated filing lawsuits on behalf of at least one other woman, and
|
| 59 |
+
called a settlement program "a positive step" toward resolving the claims. "But it is only the first step," he
|
| 60 |
+
Until last month, Mr. Boies's firm represented one of Mr. Epstein's most outspoken accusers,
|
| 61 |
+
in a defamation lawsuit against the former Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz. A
|
| 62 |
+
federal judge disqualified the firm, saying its lawyers might have to appear as witnesses in the litigation.
|
| 63 |
+
Some accusers are taking advantage of a new law in New York that allows child victims of sexual abuse to
|
| 64 |
+
file claims for damages many years later. Many of Mr. Epstein's accusers said they were abused more than
|
| 65 |
+
a decade ago.
|
| 66 |
+
New York law also permits crime victims to file lawsuits seeking damages within a year of the termination
|
| 67 |
+
of a criminal case against the defendant. The clock on such claims started on Aug. 29, when federal
|
| 68 |
+
prosecutors dismissed a sex-trafficking indictment against Mr. Epstein after his suicide at the Manhattan
|
| 69 |
+
Correctional Center.
|
| 70 |
+
If a claims resolution program is formed, it's possible that dozens of women could seek monetary
|
| 71 |
+
damages. When Mr. Epstein pleaded guilty in 2008 in Florida state court to a charge of soliciting
|
| 72 |
+
prostitution from a minor, it was estimated in court filings that he had engaged in sexual activity with at
|
| 73 |
+
least 30 underage girls.

Boies Schiller Flexner attorneys on Tuesday sued the estate of Jeffrey Epstein on behalf of
|
| 94 |
+
at least three women who said they were sexually abused by the deceased financier after
|
| 95 |
+
being recruited into his alleged sex-trafficking network in New York.
|
| 96 |
+
The lawsuits, filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, include
|
| 97 |
+
claims for battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress by plaintiffs who said they
|
| 98 |
+
met Epstein and his companion, Ghislaine Maxwell, between 1995 and 2002.
|
| 99 |
+
Two of the women,
|
| 100 |
+
and
|
| 101 |
+
were the subjects of New York Times
|
| 102 |
+
reporting in August, which identified the two sisters as the first to report abusive behavior
|
| 103 |
+
by Epstein at his Manhattan townhouse. Though the FBI took up an investigation, the
|
| 104 |
+
Times reported, a widely criticized 2008 plea deal eventually derailed any federal
|
| 105 |
+
prosecution.
|
| 106 |
+
According to
|
| 107 |
+
complaint, Epstein had hired her to purchase art for him,
|
| 108 |
+
though her job responsibilities soon shifted to "focus on monitoring and keeping records of
|
| 109 |
+
who entered Epstein's New York mansion." She said that Epstein took interest in personal
|
| 110 |
+
details about her family, and upon hearing that she had a younger sister, arraigned to have
|
| 111 |
+
-year-ola
|
| 112 |
+
flown to New York.
|
| 113 |
+
While there
|
| 114 |
+
said, Epstein groped |
|
| 115 |
+
in a movie theater and eventually
|
| 116 |
+
flew the girl to his New Mexico ranch, where he assaulted her. In her own lawsuit
|
| 117 |
+
EFTA00040557
|
| 118 |
+
|
| 119 |
+
said that Maxwell, a British socialite who has been accused of procuring young
|
| 120 |
+
women and underage girls for Epstein, pressured her to have physical contact with Epstein
|
| 121 |
+
and that both adults participated in the abuse, under the guise of a massage.
|
| 122 |
+
Both of the
|
| 123 |
+
and Sigrid McCawley of Boies Schiller.
|
| 124 |
+
are represented in the litigation by David Boies, Joshua Schiller
|
| 125 |
+
claimed in her filing that "Maxwell was regularly bringing school-aged girls to
|
| 126 |
+
the mansion" in New York, and that they were always escorted upstairs.
|
| 127 |
+
who
|
| 128 |
+
was years old at the time, said she was told that the girls were interviewing for modeling
|
| 129 |
+
positions with lingerie retailer Victoria's Secret and was unaware of Epstein's sex-trafficking
|
| 130 |
+
conspiracy at the time.
|
| 131 |
+
The complaint included a reference to former Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz, who
|
| 132 |
+
she said visited the mansion "on a number of occasions" and "would go upstairs at the
|
| 133 |
+
same time the young girls were there."
|
| 134 |
+
While the filing did not contain any explicit allegations of wrongdoing by Dershowitz, it did
|
| 135 |
+
signal the latest salvo in an ongoing feud between the professor and Boies Schiller, which
|
| 136 |
+
has represented Epstein accusers in a range of civil litigation.
|
| 137 |
+
Until recently, Boies and McCawley represented
|
| 138 |
+
who claimed that
|
| 139 |
+
Dershowitz had defamed her through his strong denials of forced sex. Dershowitz has filed
|
| 140 |
+
counterclaims agains
|
| 141 |
+
and last week Boies sued Dershowitz, claiming that he had
|
| 142 |
+
falsely accused him of extortion.
|
| 143 |
+
Dershowitz has repeatedly and forcefully denied allegations that he had sex with anyone in
|
| 144 |
+
Epstein's orbit. On Tuesday he said
|
| 145 |
+
account that she had seen him at
|
| 146 |
+
Epstein's mansion in 1995 was "categorically" false.
|
| 147 |
+
According to Dershowitz, he never visited Epstein's home until after
|
| 148 |
+
ended
|
| 149 |
+
her connection to the financier in the summer of 1996. He said the passage would work to
|
| 150 |
+
undermine her credibility moving forward.
|
| 151 |
+
"It just shows that Boies is more interested in going after me" than in helping his own client,
|
| 152 |
+
Dershowitz said in a brief phone interview.
|
| 153 |
+
EFTA00040558
|
| 154 |
+
|
| 155 |
+
Boies was not immediately available to comment Tuesday.
|
| 156 |
+
A third plaintiff
|
| 157 |
+
on Tuesday said that she was recruited by a fellow massage-
|
| 158 |
+
therapy student in 2002 to interview for a traveling masseuse position with a wealthy
|
| 159 |
+
couple in New York. After speaking with Epstein employee
|
| 160 |
+
said she
|
| 161 |
+
was flown to Manhattan, where she was to be housed at a 66th Street apartment, which
|
| 162 |
+
housed "many of the models and other young women" Epstein was abusing.
|
| 163 |
+
Soon after
|
| 164 |
+
said, Epstein sexually assaulted her as she tried to leave the room after
|
| 165 |
+
he pushed his foot into "her intimate parts" during a foot massage
|
| 166 |
+
said she was so
|
| 167 |
+
traumatized by the encounter that did not finish massage therapy school with the same
|
| 168 |
+
certification that she initially set out to achieve and returned to Ohio shortly after the
|
| 169 |
+
alleged assault.
|
| 170 |
+
All three lawsuits named Darren Indyke, a longtime attorney for Epstein, and Richard
|
| 171 |
+
Kahn, who were named executors of Epstein's estate following his apparent suicide in
|
| 172 |
+
August. Indyke and Kahn are named solely as executors of the estate
|
| 173 |
+
While Epstein's death in federal custody terminated the criminal case against him, plaintiffs
|
| 174 |
+
have sued his estate for civil damages—a process experts have said could take years to
|
| 175 |
+
complete.
|
| 176 |
+
Prosecutors in Manhattan, meanwhile, say they are continuing to investigate whether any
|
| 177 |
+
of Epstein's associates and employees could have been linked to the conspiracy.

This memo is intended to request approval for the planned foreign travel of

Assistant United States Attorneys in the Southern

AUSAs
|
| 20 |
+
I will be traveling to Stockholm,
|
| 21 |
+
Sweden, to interview a potential witness in connection with an investigation into possible
|
| 22 |
+
violations of 18 U.S.C. § 2423, among other offenses. AUSAs
|
| 23 |
+
will travel between February 3 (overnight) and February 7, 2020.
|
| 24 |
+
has approved this
|
| 25 |
+
request.'
|
| 26 |
+
In connection with the investigation of criminal conduct undertaken by Jeffrey Epstein
|
| 27 |
+
and certain of his associates, we are investigating whether certain individuals undertook actions
|
| 28 |
+
within the United States that involved the transportation of minors for the purpose of engaging in
|
| 29 |
+
illicit sexual activity. The witness we intend to interview is a citizen and resident of Sweden
|
| 30 |
+
and currently is unable to travel due to medical issues, but would be a potentially valuable
|
| 31 |
+
Witness in our investigation. Specifically, the witness is the relative of a victim in the
|
| 32 |
+
investigation, and may be able to significantly corroborate the victim as well as provide
|
| 33 |
+
additional relevant information, including information required to meet certain elements of the
|
| 34 |
+
crime(s) being investigated.
|
| 35 |
+
Given the critical importance of the witness, and the need to fully debrief the witness over
|
| 36 |
+
a one-day interview, and potentially a subsequent follow-up interview the following day, it is
|
| 37 |
+
necessary for each of AUSAs
|
| 38 |
+
to travel to Stockholm to participate
|
| 39 |
+
in the interview.
|
| 40 |
+
originally approved this trip for January 27 through 31st, but approval timelines
|
| 41 |
+
necessitated rescheduling to the following week.
|
| 42 |
+
EFTA00074185
|
| 43 |
+
|
| 44 |
+
High Threat Security Overseas Seminar ("HTSOS"") training is required for the requested
|
| 45 |
+
travel to Sweden. AUSAL
|
| 46 |
+
has completed HTSOS training, and AUSAs
|
| 47 |
+
and
|
| 48 |
+
will complete the HTSOS training.
|
| 49 |
+
AUSAs
|
| 50 |
+
therefore request permission to travel to Sweden.

Assume we're not going to comment on how many calls we receive? I see her point, but not sure if that's a road we want
|
| 10 |

to go down...

I'm not asking what the communications are, as you know, I'm just
|
| 17 |
+
asking for a statement about whether you received a response and
|
| 18 |
+
whether that response was good. That is not asking you the nature
|
| 19 |
+
of the calls or the communications.
|
| 20 |
+
I hope we can have a good working relationship, and as I said, I'm
|
| 21 |
+
willing to work within the confines of your restrictions.
|
| 22 |
+
I too am getting calls from victims, and some of them are reluctant
|
| 23 |
+
to go to your office because they've seen how the women in Florida
|
| 24 |
+
were treated.
|
| 25 |
+
It might be good to continue to use the media to assure them (and
|
| 26 |
+
other potential witnesses) that you are truly on a different path than
|
| 27 |
+
those who worked the previous case.
|
| 28 |
+
I would appreciate it if you would share this email with Mr. Berman,
|
| 29 |
+
and/or the lead prosecutors in the case.

Thanks,

Julie,

Thank you for your inquiry. I cannot comment on how many victims have come forward or the nature or
|
| 39 |
+
those calls; communications between victims and this Office are strictly confidential.

Subject: Epstein FOIA Atty Visit Logs and Count Slips
|
| 19 |
+
Defense counsel in Tartaglione has requested to see the attorney visit logs and count slips that have Tartaglione's name on
|
| 20 |
+
them. Those documents may be covered by the attached protective order, and so we have asked
|
| 21 |
+
, who is
|
| 22 |
+
firewall counsel in Tartaglione, to receive the documents from you for potential production to defense counsel (so that
|
| 23 |
+
and I do not see them).
|
| 24 |
+
is going to review the protective order first and determine whether she needs
|
| 25 |
+
Judge Karas to modify the order to allow her to receive the documents, so please don't send them to
|
| 26 |
+
until she
|
| 27 |
+
reaches out. Thanks for helping with this - we know it is a pain.

+
Introduction
|
| 240 |
+
This case began as a defamation action, though it is hardly recognizable as
|
| 241 |
+
such anymore. The stakes are much higher now.
|
| 242 |
+
The government has indicted Ghislaine Maxwell. The media has all but
|
| 243 |
+
convicted her.
|
| 244 |
+
The government alleges, among other things, that Ms. Maxwell committed
|
| 245 |
+
perjury during her civil deposition. But Ms. Maxwell sat for the deposition and was
|
| 246 |
+
compelled to answer numerous personal, sensitive, and allegedly incriminatory
|
| 247 |
+
questions only after the plaintiff and the district court, through a stipulated
|
| 248 |
+
Protective Order, guaranteed the confidentiality of her answers. As this Court has
|
| 249 |
+
long recognized, and as this case shows, "witnesses might be expected frequently
|
| 250 |
+
to refuse to testify pursuant to protective orders if their testimony were to be made
|
| 251 |
+
available to the Government for criminal investigatory purposes in disregard of
|
| 252 |
+
those orders."1
|
| 253 |
+
Now that promise of confidentiality appears to have been dubious at best.
|
| 254 |
+
Indeed, it is at risk of being broken entirely.
|
| 255 |
+
' Martindell v. Int'l Tel. & Tel. Corp., 594 F.2d 291, 296 (2d Cir. 1979).

+
Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page9 of 38
|
| 260 |
+
Without any apparent lawful basis, the government has obtained a copy of
|
| 261 |
+
Ms. Maxwell's confidential, sealed deposition. The indictment quotes directly
|
| 262 |
+
from it. And yesterday, the district court ordered its imminent unsealing.
|
| 263 |
+
The district court's unsealing order sanctions the perjury trap unfairly set for
|
| 264 |
+
Ms. Maxwell, in violation of the 5th Amendment privilege against self-
|
| 265 |
+
incrimination. It risks Ms. Maxwell's due process right to a fair trial by an impartial
|
| 266 |
+
jury. And it eviscerates the promise of confidentiality on which Ms. Maxwell and
|
| 267 |
+
numerous third parties reasonably relied. Absent a stay from this Court, it will
|
| 268 |
+
forever let the cat out of the bag.
|
| 269 |
+
To vindicate Ms. Maxwell's constitutional right to remain silent, to protect
|
| 270 |
+
her constitutional right to a fair trial by an impartial jury, and for all the other
|
| 271 |
+
reasons offered below, this Court should stay the unsealing order pending appeal.
|
| 272 |
+
Statement of the Case and the Facts
|
| 273 |
+
I. The defamation action and the Protective Order.
|
| 274 |
+
alleged that Ms. Maxwell defamed her. The alleged
|
| 275 |
+
defamation centered on a statement from Ms. Maxwell's attorney generally
|
| 276 |
+
denying as "untrue" and "obvious lies" plaintiff's numerous allegations, over the
|
| 277 |
+
span of four years, that Ms. Maxwell participated in a scheme causing her to be
|
| 278 |
+
"sexually abused and trafficked" by Jeffrey Epstein.
|
| 279 |
+

+
|

+
Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page10 of 38
|
| 283 |
+
Plaintiff, a public figure required to prove actual malice, litigated her
|
| 284 |
+
defamation action by trying to transform it into a criminal or tort action for sexual
|
| 285 |
+
abuse and sexual trafficking of minors. Her lawyers intended to prove the
|
| 286 |
+
defamation claim solely by, in effect, "prosecuting" Ms. Maxwell as a proxy for
|
| 287 |
+
Epstein. Plaintiff chose this course of action because even she admitted some of her
|
| 288 |
+
public statements were false.
|
| 289 |
+
Discovery in the case was correspondingly intrusive, hard-fought, and wide-
|
| 290 |
+
ranging. It spanned more than a year and included voluminous document
|
| 291 |
+
productions and responses to interrogatories and thirty-some depositions,
|
| 292 |
+
including depositions of plaintiff and Ms. Maxwell as well as numerous third
|
| 293 |
+
parties, including Doe 1.
|
| 294 |
+
Plaintiff sought and obtained a wide variety of private and confidential
|
| 295 |
+
information about Ms. Maxwell, Doe 1, and others, including information about
|
| 296 |
+
financial and sexual matters. Given the amount of personal, confidential material
|
| 297 |
+
and information exchanged between the parties during discovery, the district court
|
| 298 |
+
entered a stipulated Protective Order protecting from public disclosure information
|
| 299 |
+
the parties in good faith concluded was confidential. ExHIBIT 1. The Protective
|
| 300 |
+
Order included a mechanism for one party to challenge another party's
|
| 301 |
+
confidentiality designation (such a challenge never occurred) and expressly
|
| 302 |
+

+
Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page11 of 38
|
| 306 |
+
provided that it was not applicable to any information or material disclosed at trial.
|
| 307 |
+
Id. at 4-5.
|
| 308 |
+
"The Protective Order, despite the angst it is now causing, is unremarkable
|
| 309 |
+
in form and function." EXHIBIT 2 at 3. Counsel for plaintiff originally proposed
|
| 310 |
+
protective order language that would have allowed for a "law enforcement"
|
| 311 |
+
exception. In particular, Paragraph I(a) 4 of the draft proposed that
|
| 312 |
+
"CONFIDENTIAL information shall not be disclosed or used for any purpose
|
| 313 |
+
except the preparation and trial of this case and any related matter, including but
|
| 314 |
+
not limited to, investigations by law enforcement. " See EXHIBIT 3 at 42.
|
| 315 |
+
This language was rejected by Ms. Maxwell because of her concerns that
|
| 316 |
+
plaintiff and her lawyers were acting as either express or de facto agents of the
|
| 317 |
+
government. The language agreed upon, and made an order of the district court,
|
| 318 |
+
specifically excluded an exception for law enforcement. Had the language not been
|
| 319 |
+
made an order of the district court, Ms. Maxwell would have proceeded in a
|
| 320 |
+
different fashion. She instead relied on this language and the protection afforded to
|
| 321 |
+
her by this Court under established Second Circuit law.
|
| 322 |
+
After the district court denied Ms. Maxwell's motion for summary
|
| 323 |
+
judgment, the parties agreed to a settlement of the defamation claim and the case
|
| 324 |
+
was dismissed. As the district court below recognized, a significant component of
|

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page12 of 38
|
| 329 |
+
the settlement agreement was its confidentiality, a feature that echoes the purpose
|
| 330 |
+
of the Protective Order on which Ms. Maxwell and numerous third parties,
|
| 331 |
+
including Doe 1, justifiably relied.
|
| 332 |
+
II. The motion to unseal and the first appeal.
|
| 333 |
+
One year after the case was dismissed and closed, the Miami Herald sought
|
| 334 |
+
to reopen the case and to unseal every sealed filing on the district court docket. The
|
| 335 |
+
district court denied the motion to unseal.
|
| 336 |
+
The Miami Herald appealed, and this Court reversed. Brown v. Maxwell, 929
|
| 337 |
+
F.3d 41, 44-45 (2d Cir. 2019). The majority concluded that the district court erred
|
| 338 |
+
in sealing the summary judgment materials. Id. at 47-48. Upon the issuance of the
|
| 339 |
+
mandate, it unsealed the summary judgment materials to the public and the press,
|
| 340 |
+
and it remanded the case to the district court to conduct a particularized review of
|
| 341 |
+
the remaining records to which the Herald sought access. Id. at 53-54.
|
| 342 |
+
Judge Pooler dissented in part. Id. at 54. Although she agreed the district
|
| 343 |
+
court erred, she would only have unsealed the summary judgment order while
|
| 344 |
+
leaving "the remainder of the materials for the district court to review, redact, and
|
| 345 |
+
unseal on remand." Id. (Pooler, J., dissenting in part).

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page 13 of 38
|
| 350 |
+
Despite the division among the judges, the Court was unanimous in its
|
| 351 |
+
recognition of "the potential damage to privacy and reputation that may
|
| 352 |
+
accompany public disclosure of hard-fought, sensitive litigation." Id. at 44.
|
| 353 |
+
Finally, anticipating that the district court would not have the last word
|
| 354 |
+
about whether certain materials should remain under seal, this Court instructed
|
| 355 |
+
that "[i]n the interests of judicial economy, any future appeal in this matter shall be
|
| 356 |
+
referred to this panel. " Id. at 54.
|
| 357 |
+
III. The remand, the arrest, and the indictment.
|
| 358 |
+
On remand, the Miami Herald sought to unseal Ms. Maxwell's depositions
|
| 359 |
+
(taken in April and July 2016) and the deposition of Doe 1 (taken in June 2016). Ms.
|
| 360 |
+
Maxwell filed an objection, ExHIBIT 4, plaintiff and the Herald each filed a
|
| 361 |
+
response, ExHIBIts 5 & 6, and Ms. Maxwell filed a reply, ExHIBIT 7.
|
| 362 |
+
On July 2, one day after Ms. Maxwell filed her reply, the government staged
|
| 363 |
+
a dramatic, forced entry at dawn into her home and arrested her. ExHIBIT 3 at 13.
|
| 364 |
+
Immediately after Ms. Maxwell's arrest, Acting U.S. Attorney Audrey
|
| 365 |
+
Strauss held a press conference and made numerous comments attacking Ms.
|
| 366 |
+
Maxwell's credibility and expressing her opinion of Ms. Maxwell's guilt, e.g., that
|
| 367 |
+
she was guilty of "[ying]" in her deposition "because the truth, as alleged, was
|
| 368 |
+
almost unspeakable." Id.

+
Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page14 of 38
|
| 373 |
+
Plaintiff's counsel piled on, offering their own opinions about Ms. Maxwell's
|
| 374 |
+
guilt. For example, Bradley Edwards opined that Ms. Maxwell was "a main
|
| 375 |
+
facilitator" of Epstein's crimes who "started the whole thing." Id. And Sigrid
|
| 376 |
+
McCawley praised the prosecutors: "[They] have done an incredible job and
|
| 377 |
+
they're being very meticulous, they want to make sure that the Indictments
|
| 378 |
+
stick... They took a lot of time to be very careful and thoughtful and that gives me
|
| 379 |
+
a lot of hope that [Ms. Maxwell] will remain in prison for the remainder of her
|
| 380 |
+
life.. [Ms. Maxwell] was really the central figure ...." Id. at 16.
|
| 381 |
+
Ms. Maxwell's motion for an order barring such extrajudicial comments led
|
| 382 |
+
Judge Nathan (S.D.N.Y.), who is presiding over the criminal case, to admonish
|
| 383 |
+
"counsel for all involved parties [to] exercise great care to ensure compliance with
|
| 384 |
+
this Court's local rules, including Local Criminal Rule 23.1, and the rules of
|
| 385 |
+
professional responsibility." ExHIIT 3 at 19. Judge Nathan further "warn[ed]
|

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page15 of 38
|
| 395 |
+
On July 8, the government filed a superseding indictment alleging that Ms.
|
| 396 |
+
Maxwell "assisted, facilitated, and contributed" to Epstein's abuse of minors. The
|
| 397 |
+
indictment quickly turned to this civil action, alleging that in 2016 Ms. Maxwell
|
| 398 |
+
made "efforts to conceal her conduct" by "repeatedly provid[ing] false and
|
| 399 |
+
perjurious statements" in deposition testimony. ExHIIt 3 at 29 9 8.
|
| 400 |
+
Quoting verbatim from Ms. Maxwell's April 2016 deposition transcript, the
|
| 401 |
+
indictment alleges that Ms. Maxwell gave false testimony (a) when she testified "I
|
| 402 |
+
don't know what you're talking about"' in response to a question whether Epstein
|
| 403 |
+
"ha[d] a scheme to recruit underage girls for sexual massages ... [ilf you know";
|
| 404 |
+
and (b) when she testified, "I'm not aware of anybody that I interacted with [other
|
| 405 |
+
than plaintiff] who was 17 at this point." Id. at 35 9l 21.
|
| 406 |
+
None of these questions and answers was used in the summary judgment
|
| 407 |
+
materials released by this Court in Brown. The transcript containing this testimony
|
| 408 |
+
is sealed.
|
| 409 |
+
Only two parties — plaintiff and Ms. Maxwell —and their counsel had proper
|
| 410 |
+
access to the transcripts of Ms. Maxwell's depositions. The transcripts, which were
|
| 411 |
+
designated "confidential" under the Protective Order, could only be disclosed to
|
| 412 |
+
"attorneys actively working on this case" and "persons regularly employed or
|
| 413 |
+
associated with the attorneys who are working on this case." EXHIBIT 1 at 2. As

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page16 of 38
|
| 418 |
+
explained above, this language was negotiated by the parties specifically to exclude
|
| 419 |
+
an exception for investigations by law enforcement.
|
| 420 |
+
From Ms. Maxwell's indictment and arrest, four things are plain. One, as
|
| 421 |
+
the indictment and superseding indictment establish, the government has a copy of
|
| 422 |
+
the transcripts from Ms. Maxwell's April and July 2016 depositions, both of which
|
| 423 |
+
were designated "Confidential."
|
| 424 |
+
Two, the government had no apparent ability legally to obtain the deposition
|
| 425 |
+
transcripts. In Martindell v. International Telephone and Telegraph Corp., 594 F.2d
|
| 426 |
+
291, 293 (2d Cir. 1979), cited with approval in In re Teligent, Inc., 640 F.3d 53, 58 (2d
|
| 427 |
+
Cir. 2011), the government moved in a civil action to which it was not a party for
|
| 428 |
+
access to transcripts of depositions of twelve witnesses, including some of the civil
|
| 429 |
+
defendants. The government said it was investigating possible violations of federal
|
| 430 |
+
criminal laws, including perjury, subornation of perjury, obstruction of justice, and
|
| 431 |
+
conspiracy. The government:
|
| 432 |
+
speculated that the pretrial deposition testimony might be relevant to
|
| 433 |
+
its investigation into matters similar to those that had been the subject
|
| 434 |
+
of the Martindell action and might be useful in appraising the
|
| 435 |
+
credibility, accuracy and completeness of testimony given by witnesses
|
| 436 |
+
in the Government's investigation or might provide additional
|
| 437 |
+
information of use to the Government. The Government, moreover,
|
| 438 |
+
feared that unless it could obtain the deposition transcripts, it would
|
| 439 |
+
be unable to secure statements from the witnesses because they would
|
| 440 |
+
claim their Fifth Amendment rights in any investigative interviews by
|
| 441 |
+
the Government.

|
| 446 |
+
594 F.2d at 293. The district court denied the government's request, holding that
|
| 447 |
+
"the deposition testimony had been given in reliance upon the protective order,
|
| 448 |
+
thus rendering unnecessary invocation by the witnesses of their Fifth Amendment
|
| 449 |
+
rights, that the requested turnover would raise constitutional issues, and that
|
| 450 |
+
principles of fairness mandated enforcement of the protective order." Id.
|
| 451 |
+
On appeal, this Court affirmed:
|
| 452 |
+
In the present case the deponents testified in reliance upon the Rule
|
| 453 |
+
26(c) protective order, absent which they may have refused to
|
| 454 |
+
testify... [T]he witnesses were entitled to rely upon the terms of a
|
| 455 |
+
concededly valid protective order and Judge Conner did not abuse his
|
| 456 |
+
discretion in refusing to vacate or modify that order.
|
| 457 |
+
Id. at 296-97.
|
| 458 |
+
Three, the government did not obtain a copy of the deposition transcripts
|
| 459 |
+
from Ms. Maxwell or her counsel.
|
| 460 |
+
Four, there has been a second violation of the district court's Protective
|
| 461 |
+
Order consistent with the plaintiff's prior violation of the Protective Order:?
|
| 462 |
+
' On July 1, the district court found a violation of the Protective Order by
|
| 463 |
+
Plaintiff's attorneys after learning that her successor counsel, Cooper & Kirk, had
|
| 464 |
+
received from her former counsel, Boies Schiller Flexner, various discovery
|
| 465 |
+
materials that were subject to the Protective Order. EXHIBIT 2 at 4. The Court
|
| 466 |
+
rejected Cooper & Kirk's suggestion that it properly was a recipient of the material:
|
| 467 |
+
[W]hatever Cooper & Kirk's intentions in requesting and obtaining
|
| 468 |
+
the Maxwell materials from Boies Schiller, the Maxwell Protective

|
| 474 |
+
On July 23, over Ms. Maxwell's objection, the district court ordered the
|
| 475 |
+
complete unsealing of Ms. Maxwell's deposition transcripts and Doe 1's deposition
|
| 476 |
+
transcript as well as numerous sealed or redacted orders and papers that quote
|
| 477 |
+
from or disclose information from the transcripts (collective, the "deposition
|
| 478 |
+
material"). That Ms. Maxwell was under criminal investigation, the court ruled,
|
| 479 |
+
"is not entitled to much weight here." EXHIBIT 8 at 5.
|
| 480 |
+
On July 28, the district court entered an order directing the public release of
|
| 481 |
+
the deposition material on July 30.

Docket Text:

ORDER: The parties are directed to prepare for unsealing in accordance with the
|
| 484 |
+
Court's order of July 23, 2020, (ECF Minute Entry, dated July 23, 2020), the
|
| 485 |

documents listed in Exhibit A to Plaintiff
|
| 486 |

Opposition to
|

Defendant Ghislaine Maxwell's Objections to Onstaling Docket Entries 143, 164,
|
| 488 |
+
172, 199, & 230, (dkt. no. 1068-1). Counsel shall file those documents on the public

+
docket, under a heading of "Documents Ordered Unsealed by Order of July 23,
|
| 490 |
+
2020," no later than July 30, 2020. The Court incorporates its rulings specific to
|
| 491 |
+
each document-which are set forth in the transcript of the July 23 proceedings --
|
| 492 |
+
herein. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Loretta A. Preska on 7/28/2020) (va)
|
| 493 |
+
Order explicitly provides that (1) discovery materials designated
|
| 494 |
+
CONFIDENTIAL cannot be disclosed or used outside of the Maxwell
|
| 495 |
+
action and (2) that properly designated discovery materials may only

"[a]ll of those materials and any material, including work product, derived"
|
| 500 |

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page19 of 38
|
| 506 |
+
Ms. Maxwell filed a motion to reconsider on July 29, 2020. ExHIBIT 3.3 The
|
| 507 |
+
motion asked the district court, should it deny the motion to reconsider, for a two-
|
| 508 |
+
business-day stay of its order to permit Ms. Maxwell an opportunity to seek relief in
|
| 509 |
+
this Court.
|
| 510 |
+
The Court denied the motion to reconsider but stayed the unsealing until
|
| 511 |
+
August 3, 2013. ExHIBIT 9.
|
| 512 |
+
On July 29, 2020, Ms. Maxwell filed a notice of appeal from the district
|
| 513 |
+
court's unsealing order.* This motion asks the Court to stay the unsealing of the
|
| 514 |
+
deposition material pending resolution of that appeal.
|
| 515 |
+
Because the district court intends to unseal the deposition material on
|
| 516 |
+
August 3, 2020, absent a contrary ruling by this Court, Ms. Maxwell makes this
|
| 517 |
+
motion on an emergency basis. To prevent irreparable harm, Ms. Maxwell
|
| 518 |
+
3 As part of the motion to reconsider, Ms. Maxwell also asked the district
|
| 519 |
+
court to commence contempt proceedings and issue an order to show cause why
|
| 520 |
+
the person(s) who violated the Order should not be held in contempt. See, e.g.,
|
| 521 |
+
Blum v. Schlegel, 108 F.3d 1369 (2d Cir. 1997); Hunt v. Enzo Biochem, Inc., 904 F.

+
order doctrine. Brown, 929 F.3d at 54; see United States v. Ere Cty., N. Y., 763 F.3d

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page20 of 38
|
| 531 |
+
respectfully requests an order on this motion by close of business on Friday, July
|
| 532 |
+
31, 2020.
|
| 533 |
+
At the very least, this Court should enter a temporary administrative stay to
|
| 534 |
+
give itself sufficient time to consider the merits of Ms. Maxwell's motion to stay
|
| 535 |
+
pending appeal.
|
| 536 |
+
Argument
|
| 537 |
+
I. This Court should stay the district court's order pending appeal.
|
| 538 |
+
Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 8 governs a motion for a stay pending
|
| 539 |
+
appeal. Fed. R. App. P. 8(a)(2). Under that Rule, this Court will stay a district
|
| 540 |
+
court order pending appeal after evaluating four criteria: the likelihood of success
|
| 541 |
+
on the merits, irreparable injury if a stay is denied, substantial injury to the party
|
| 542 |
+
opposing a stay if one is issued, and the public interest. Mohammed v. Reno, 309
|
| 543 |
+
F.3d 95, 100 (2d Cir. 2002) (citing Hilton v. Braunskill, 481 U.S. 770, 776 (1987)).
|
| 544 |
+
"The necessary 'level' or 'degree' of possibility of success will vary
|
| 545 |
+
according to the court's assessment of the other [stay] factors." Id. at 101 (quoting
|
| 546 |
+
Wash. Metro. Area Transit Comm'n v. Holiday Tours, Inc., 559 F.2d 841, 843 (D.C.
|
| 547 |
+
Cir. 1977)). As a result, "The probability of success that must be demonstrated is
|
| 548 |
+
inversely proportional to the amount of irreparable injury [appellant] will suffer
|
| 549 |
+
absent the stay. Simply stated, more of one excuses less of the other." Id. (quoting
|
| 550 |
+

|
| 551 |
+

|
| 552 |

|
| 554 |
+
Mich. Coalition of Radioactive Material Users, Inc. v. Griepentrog, 945 F.2d 150, 153
|
| 555 |
+
(6th Cir. 1991)).
|
| 556 |
+
Here, irreparable injury will occur if the district court's unsealing order is
|
| 557 |
+
not stayed. Simply put, unless this Court grants a stay, any appeal of the order to
|
| 558 |
+
unseal will be moot. See Providence Journal Co. v. FBI, 595 F.2d 889, 890 (1st Cir.
|
| 559 |
+
1979) (irreparable injury when denial of a stay will moot appeal).
|
| 560 |
+
As with the disclosure of privileged communications, once the deposition
|
| 561 |
+
material is released, there is no way to "re-seal" the material or repair the damage
|
| 562 |
+
done. See In re Sims v. Blot, 534 F.3d 117, 132 (2d Cir. 2008) ("'[A] remedy after
|
| 563 |
+
final judgment cannot unsay the confidential information that has been revealed.'"
|
| 564 |
+
(quoting In re von Bulow, 828 F.2d 94, 99 (2d Cir. 1987)). At that point,
|
| 565 |
+
particularly in the Internet age, the horse is irrevocably out of the barn. See United
|
| 566 |
+
States v. Bolton,
|
| 567 |
+
_F. Supp. 3d_
|
| 568 |
+
_, 2020 WL 3401940, at * 4 (D.D.C. No. 1:20-
|
| 569 |
+
CV-1580 (RCL), June 20, 2020) (declining to enjoin publication of a book by
|
| 570 |
+
former National Security Advisor John R. Bolton because copies were already
|
| 571 |
+
released, the "horse is out of the barn," and "in the Internet age, even a handful of
|
| 572 |
+
copies in circulation could irrevocably destroy confidentiality").
|
| 573 |
+
Because irreparable damage will result from the improper and premature
|
| 574 |
+
unsealing of the deposition material, Ms. Maxwell need only show "a substantial
|
| 575 |
+

|
| 579 |
+
possibility, although less than a likelihood, of success" on the merits. Dubose v.
|
| 580 |
+
Pierce, 761 F.2d 913, 920 (2d Cir. 1985), vacated on other grounds, 487 U.S. 1229
|
| 581 |
+
(1988). A "substantial possibility" of success is "something less than 50 percent."
|
| 582 |
+
Mohammed, 309 F.3d at 102.
|
| 583 |
+
If the likelihood were more than 50 percent, the appellant would be
|
| 584 |
+
required to persuade the stay panel that he was more likely than not to
|
| 585 |
+
win the appeal before the merits panel, just to obtain the critical
|
| 586 |
+
opportunity to maintain the status quo until the merits panel considers
|
| 587 |
+
the appeal.
|
| 588 |
+
Id.
|
| 589 |
+
As elaborated below, Ms. Maxwell has more than a substantial probability of
|
| 590 |
+
success. And in contrast to the irreparable injury Ms. Maxwell will suffer absent a
|
| 591 |
+
stay, plaintiff and the Miami Herald will suffer no meaningful harm if this Court
|
| 592 |
+
grants Ms. Maxwell's motion. Finally, the public interest favors a stay. This Court
|
| 593 |
+
should issue a stay pending appeal of the district court's order unsealing the
|
| 594 |
+
deposition material. See In re Long Island Lighting Co., 129 F.3d 268, 270 (2d Cir.
|
| 595 |
+
1997) (stay of order compelling discovery of evidence).
|
| 596 |
+
A. Ms. Maxwell will suffer irreparable harm absent a stay because the
|
| 597 |
+
denial of a stay will moot her appeal.
|
| 598 |
+
Ms. Maxwell will suffer irreparable harm absent a stay because her "right of
|
| 599 |
+
appeal here will become moot unless the stay is continued pending determination
|
| 600 |
+
of the appeal[]. Once the documents are [disclosed] pursuant to the lower court's
|
| 601 |
+

|
| 602 |
+

|

|
| 605 |
+
order, confidentiality will be lost for all time. The status quo could never be
|
| 606 |
+
restored." Providence Journal Co., 595 F.2d at 890. As this Court has recognized,
|
| 607 |
+
stays pending appeal of orders to unseal are appropriate so that "[t]he genie is [not]
|
| 608 |
+
out of the bottle." Gambale v. Deutsche Bank AG, 377 F.3d 133, 138, 144 & n.11 (2d
|
| 609 |
+
Cir. 2004).
|
| 610 |
+
In Providence Journal Co. v. Federal Bureau of Investigation, the First Circuit
|
| 611 |
+
stayed pending appeal a district court order requiring disclosure to the Providence
|
| 612 |
+
Journal of various documents reflecting the results of an unauthorized and illegal
|
| 613 |
+
wiretap. Id. at 889. The First Circuit explained that litigants are entitled to
|
| 614 |
+
meaningful appellate review, which demands the opportunity for the appellate
|
| 615 |
+
court to "take a fresh look at the decision of the trial court before it becomes
|
| 616 |
+
irrevocable." Id. at 890. A stay pending appeal was appropriate because the
|
| 617 |
+
"[flailure to grant a stay [would have] entirely destroy[ed] appellants' rights to
|
| 618 |
+
secure meaningful review." Id.
|
| 619 |
+
The same logic applies here. Unless this Court stays the district court's
|
| 620 |
+
order unsealing the deposition material, Ms. Maxwell will lose her right to obtain
|
| 621 |
+
review of the district court's order. See S.F. Residence Club, Inc. v. 7027 Old
|
| 622 |
+
Madison Pike, LLC, 583 F.3d 750, 756 (11th Cir. 2009) (dismissing appeal as moot
|
| 623 |
+
because appellant failed to seek a stay precluding payment of funds to a third-party

| 628 |
+
creditor). Disclosure of the deposition will moot Ms. Maxwell's challenge to its
|
| 629 |
+
unsealing.
|
| 630 |
+
This Court has already anticipated Ms. Maxwell's right to appeal an
|
| 631 |
+
unsealing order. As noted above, in Brown this Court instructed that in the
|
| 632 |
+
"interests of judicial economy, any future appeal in this matter shall be referred to
|
| 633 |
+
this panel." Brown, 929 F.3d at 54. This Court would not have directed future
|
| 634 |
+
appeals to be assigned to the same panel only to allow such an appeal to be mooted
|
| 635 |
+
before the panel could even consider its merits.
|

B. Ms. Maxwell has more than a substantial possibility of success on
|
| 637 |
+
the merits.
|
| 638 |
+
Ms. Maxwell has more than a substantial possibility of succeeding on her
|
| 639 |
+
claim that the deposition material should not be unsealed.
|
| 640 |
+
A presumptive right of access attaches to a document only if the document is
|
| 641 |
+
a judicial record. Brown, 929 F.3d at 49. In turn, a document is a judicial record only
|
| 642 |
+
if it is relevant to the performance of a judicial function. Id.
|
| 643 |
+
Once an item is deemed relevant to the exercise of judicial power, "the
|
| 644 |
+
weight to be given the presumption of access must be governed by the role of the
|
| 645 |
+
material at issue in the exercise of Article III judicial power and the resultant value
|
| 646 |
+
of such information to those monitoring the federal courts." Id. "[W]hile evidence
|
| 647 |
+
introduced at trial or in connection with summary judgment enjoys a strong
|
| 648 |
+

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page25 of 38
|
| 652 |
+
presumption of public access, documents that 'play only a negligible role in the
|
| 653 |
+
performance of Article III duties' are accorded only a low presumption that
|
| 654 |
+
'amounts to little more than a prediction of public access absent a countervailing
|
| 655 |
+
reason. '" Id. at 49-50 (quoting United States v. Amodeo, 71 F.3d 1044, 1050 (2d Cir.
|
| 656 |
+
1995)).
|
| 657 |
+
Here, the deposition material was not part of the summary judgment record.
|
| 658 |
+
Thus, the presumption of access attached to it is " somewhat lower than the
|
| 659 |
+
presumption applied to material introduced at trial, or in connection with
|
| 660 |
+
dispositive motions such as motions for dismissal or summary judgment." See id. at
|
| 661 |
+
50. In turn, several countervailing interests rebut the lower presumption of access
|
| 662 |
+
attaching to the deposition material.
|
| 663 |
+
First, the deposition material should remain sealed to protect Ms. Maxwell's
|
| 664 |
+
right to a fair trial. U.S. CONST. amend. V, VI. The decision in Nixon v. Warner
|
| 665 |
+
Communications, Inc., 435 U.S. 589 (1978) shows why.
|
| 666 |
+
In that case, members of the media moved the district court to release audio
|
| 667 |
+
tapes admitted into evidence in the trial of four of President Nixon's former
|
| 668 |
+
advisors. The media intended to copy the tapes for broadcasting and sale to the
|
| 669 |
+
public. District Judge Sirica denied the motion, principally on the ground that the
|
| 670 |
+
rights of the four defendants, who had been convicted and had filed notices of
|
| 671 |
+

|
| 672 |
+

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page26 of 38
|
| 675 |
+
appeal, would be prejudiced if they prevailed in their appeals. 435 U.S. at 595, 602
|
| 676 |
+
n.14. Judge Sirica noted that the transcripts of the audio tapes had been released to
|
| 677 |
+
the public. Id. at 595. The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals held Judge Sirica abused
|
| 678 |
+
his discretion.
|
| 679 |
+
The Supreme Court reversed the court of appeals and rejected the media's
|
| 680 |
+
arguments that release of the tapes was required under the common law right of
|
| 681 |
+
access and the First Amendment. The Court noted with approval "Judge Sirica's
|
| 682 |
+
view" that "the public's 'right to know' did not ... overcome the need to
|
| 683 |
+
safeguard the defendants' rights on appeal." Id. at 595; see id. at 602 n.14 (noting
|
| 684 |
+
that "Judge Sirica's principal reason for refusing to release the tapes [was] fairness
|
| 685 |
+
to the defendants, who were appealing their convictions"). The Court indicated
|
| 686 |
+
that the public interests in access to the tapes properly were balanced against "the
|
| 687 |
+
duty of the courts," id. at 602, including the duty to ensure fairness to the
|
| 688 |
+
defendants, see id. at 602 n.14.
|
| 689 |
+
In Nixon, the Court was properly concerned about the effect of unsealing
|
| 690 |
+
materials notwithstanding that they were core judicial documents (audio tapes
|
| 691 |
+
admitted into evidence at the merits trial). And the court continued to hold these
|
| 692 |
+
concerns even after the defendants had been convicted and had launched appeals.
|
| 693 |
+
The court recognized that the right to a fair trial is a compelling interest in
|
| 694 |
+
19
|
| 695 |
+
EFTA00074928
|
| 696 |
+
|

+
Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page27 of 38
|
| 698 |
+
"weighing the interests advanced by the parties in light of the public interests and
|
| 699 |
+
the duty of the courts," Nixon, 435 U.S. at 602.
|
| 700 |
+
Here, the unsealing of the deposition material would result in substantial
|
| 701 |
+
negative media publicity and speculation in an Internet world in the same way that
|
| 702 |
+
Judge Sirica found release of the audio tapes in Nixon would generate publicity and
|
| 703 |
+
affect those defendants' right to a fair trial. See also In re New York Times Co.., 828
|
| 704 |
+
F.2d 110, 116 (2d Cir. 1987) (recognizing "defendants' fair trial rights" as an
|
| 705 |
+
"appropriate" basis for sealing material). The public's right of access to the
|
| 706 |
+
deposition material is substantially outweighed by the compelling interest in
|
| 707 |
+
ensuring Ms. Maxwell's right to a fair trial.
|
| 708 |
+
Second, the deposition material should remain sealed to vindicate this
|
| 709 |
+
Court's prohibition on the government breaching a protective order to gain access
|
| 710 |
+
to deposition transcripts in a civil lawsuit. Martindell, 594 F.2d at 294. In
|
| 711 |
+
Martindell, decided forty years ago, this Court held that the government "may not.
|
| 712 |
+
.. simply by picking up the telephone or writing a letter to the court... insinuate
|
| 713 |
+
itself into a private civil lawsuit between others." Id. The Court rejected the
|
| 714 |
+
government's argument that the district court's "solicitude for the witnesses'
|
| 715 |
+
Fifth Amendment" over the government's desire for the deposition transcripts
|
| 716 |
+
was an abuse of discretion. Id. at 295. It held that "a more significant
|
| 717 |
+

|
| 718 |
+
EFTA00074929
|
| 719 |
+

+
Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page28 of 38
|
| 721 |
+
counterbalancing factor" is the civil rules' goal of encouraging witnesses to
|
| 722 |
+
participate in civil litigation:
|
| 723 |
+
Unless a valid Rule 26(c) protective order is to be fully and fairly
|
| 724 |
+
enforceable, witnesses relying upon such orders will be inhibited from
|
| 725 |
+
giving essential testimony in civil litigation, thus undermining a
|
| 726 |
+
procedural system that has been successfully developed over the years
|
| 727 |
+
for disposition of civil differences. In short, witnesses might be
|
| 728 |
+
expected frequently to refuse to testify pursuant to protective orders if
|
| 729 |
+
their testimony were to be made available to the Government for
|
| 730 |
+
criminal investigatory purposes in disregard of those orders.
|
| 731 |
+
Id. at 296. After balancing the interests at stake, the Court held that absent
|
| 732 |
+
improvidence in issuing the protective order or some extraordinary circumstance
|
| 733 |
+
or compelling need, witnesses must be permitted to rely on the protective order's
|
| 734 |
+
enforceability. Id. The protective order should not be vacated or modified "to
|
| 735 |
+
accommodate the Government's desire to inspect protected testimony for possible
|
| 736 |
+
use in a criminal investigation, either as evidence or as the subject of a possible perjury
|
| 737 |
+
charge." Id. (emphasis added).
|
| 738 |
+
Unsealing the deposition material in this case would sanction a blatant
|
| 739 |
+
Martindell violation. Throughout much of the first year of this litigation plaintiff
|
| 740 |
+
through her counsel represented to the district court and defense counsel that
|
| 741 |
+
plaintiff was privy to and participating in an ongoing criminal investigation in which
|
| 742 |
+
Ms. Maxwell was a "person of interest." EXHIBIT 3 at 7. Toward that end plaintiff
|
| 743 |
+
withheld documents responsive to defense discovery requests for any documents
|
| 744 |
+

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page29 of 38
|
| 748 |
+
relating to such a criminal investigation; plaintiff asserted such documents were
|
| 749 |
+
subject to a law enforcement, "investigative" or public interest "privilege." Id. In
|
| 750 |
+
response to Ms. Maxwell's motion to compel the production of documents,
|
| 751 |
+
plaintiff submitted the "law enforcement materials" ex parte and in camera to the
|
| 752 |
+
district court. Id. Ms. Maxwell objected to the submission of the materials ex parte
|
| 753 |
+
and in camera. Id. The district court denied the motion to compel. Id. The
|
| 754 |
+
materials never have been produced to the defense.
|
| 755 |
+
Based on plaintiff's claim of an ongoing investigation, Ms. Maxwell
|
| 756 |
+
requested, prior to her deposition, that plaintiff disclose any alleged "on-going
|
| 757 |
+
criminal investigation by law enforcement" or alternatively to stay this action
|
| 758 |
+
pending completion of any such investigation. Id. at 7-8. In part, Ms. Maxwell
|
| 759 |
+
needed information concerning any such investigation to assess "the impact on any
|
| 760 |
+
5th Amendment privilege." Id. at 8. Judge Sweet denied that motion. The day
|
| 761 |
+
before Ms. Maxwell's deposition, the Court ordered that "[a]ny materials that the
|
| 762 |
+
plaintiff has with respect to any criminal investigations will be turned over [by
|
| 763 |
+
plaintiff] except for any statements made by plaintiff to law enforcement
|
| 764 |
+
authority." Id. Plaintiff produced no such materials and Ms. Maxwell was deposed
|
| 765 |
+
the next day. Id. In reliance on the protective order which included no exception for
|
| 766 |
+
any law enforcement need or subpoena and based on plaintiff's failure to disclose

|
| 771 |
+
any "on-going criminal investigation" she did not assert the 5th Amendment
|
| 772 |
+
during that deposition. Id.
|
| 773 |
+
This history, culminating in plaintiff's gratuitously attaching the entire
|
| 774 |
+
transcripts of both Ms. Maxwell's depositions to court submissions, and the
|
| 775 |
+
government's unexplained possession of the sealed materials, after which they then
|
| 776 |
+
charged Ms. Maxwell with perjury counts, suggest plaintiff in conjunction with the
|
| 777 |
+
government sought to circumvent Martindell: they set a perjury trap for Ms.
|
| 778 |
+
Maxwell when plaintiff took her deposition. Unsealing the deposition material
|
| 779 |
+
would sanction the Martindell violation at the expense of Ms. Maxwell's 5th
|
| 780 |
+
Amendment rights.
|
| 781 |
+
Third, the deposition material should remain sealed to vindicate Ms.
|
| 782 |
+
Maxwell and other individuals' reasonable reliance on the judicial promise of
|
| 783 |
+
confidentiality. See S.E.C. v. TheStreet. Com, 273 F.3d 222, 229-31 (2d Cir. 2001)
|
| 784 |
+
(recognizing the importance of reliance interests in assessing whether to allow
|
| 785 |
+
access to sealed documents (citing Martindell, 594 F.2d at 296 (2d Cir. 1979)). Ms.
|
| 786 |
+
Maxwell and numerous third parties, including Doe 1, reasonably relied on the
|
| 787 |
+
Protective Order. Many of the approximately thirty depositions in this case were
|
| 788 |
+
made possible only because of the Protective Order. The district court had to issue
|
| 789 |
+
numerous orders compelling deposition testimony of third parties, which
|
| 790 |
+
23
|
| 791 |
+
EFTA00074932
|
| 792 |
+
|
| 793 |
+
Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page31 of 38
|
| 794 |
+
depositions took place only after everyone agreed on the record that the testimony
|
| 795 |
+
would be confidential and sealed pursuant to the Protective Order.
|
| 796 |
+
Indeed, plaintiff's counsel stipulated to the Protective Order in part to
|
| 797 |
+
facilitate taking Ms. Maxwell's deposition, saying, "I just want [Ms. Maxwell's]
|
| 798 |
+
deposition... It is that important to me." EXHIBIT 3 at 9. When that deposition
|
| 799 |
+
finally occurred, on the advice of counsel, Ms. Maxwell declined to answer
|
| 800 |
+
numerous questions regarding her consensual adult sexual activity, invoking her
|
| 801 |
+
constitutional right to privacy. In response, plaintiff filed a motion to compel,
|
| 802 |
+
telling the court "we have a protective order in place, and that assures Ms.
|
| 803 |
+
Maxwell's right to privacy in answering those kinds of questions." Ms. Maxwell's
|
| 804 |
+
Answer Brief, Doc. 95, Brown v. Maxwell, Case No. 18-2868 (2d Cir. Jan. 10, 2019),
|
| 805 |
+
at 25. The district court accepted plaintiff's argument and compelled Ms. Maxwell
|
| 806 |
+
to answer, saying, "the privacy concerns are alleviated by the protection order in
|
| 807 |
+
this case drafted by the defendant." Id.
|
| 808 |
+
Finally, as explained more fully in Ms. Maxwell's objection to the unsealing
|
| 809 |
+
of the deposition material and the reply in support of the objection, ExHIBITs 4 & 7,
|
| 810 |
+
the deposition material should remain sealed to prevent the abuse of court records
|
| 811 |
+
and files and to avoid annoyance, embarrassment, oppression, and undue burden.
|
| 812 |
+
To be sure, this Court has already implied as much. When, in Brown, this Court
|
| 813 |
+
24
|
| 814 |
+
EFTA00074933
|
| 815 |
+
|
| 816 |
+
Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page32 of 38
|
| 817 |
+
unsealed the summary judgment material, it redacted "deposition responses
|
| 818 |
+
concerning intimate matters where the questions were likely only permitted —and
|
| 819 |
+
the responses only compelled —because of a strong expectation of continued
|
| 820 |
+
confidentiality." 929 F.3d at 48 n.22. The district court should not unseal material
|
| 821 |
+
this Court already declined to unseal, particularly because the material this Court
|
| 822 |
+
declined to unseal enjoyed a stronger presumption of access (because it was part of
|
| 823 |
+
the summary judgment record) than the material the district court has elected to
|
| 824 |
+
unseal wholesale (because it was not part of the summary judgment record).
|
| 825 |
+
C. A stay will cause no meaningful harm to plaintiff or the Miami
|
| 826 |
+
Herald.
|
| 827 |
+
A stay will cause no meaningful harm to plaintiff or the Miami Herald.
|
| 828 |
+
First, Ms. Maxwell's and Doe 1's depositions have been confidential since
|
| 829 |
+
they were taken, more than four years ago in April, June, and July 2016. Moreover,
|
| 830 |
+
neither plaintiff nor the Miami Herald sought to unseal any records in the district
|
| 831 |
+
court for nearly a year after the underlying case was settled, dismissed, and closed
|
| 832 |
+
in May 2017. In that context, keeping the deposition material sealed a little longer,
|
| 833 |
+
until this appeal is decided, will not tangibly harm either plaintiff or Ms. Maxwell.
|
| 834 |
+
See Mohammed, 309 F.3d at 102 n.11 (rejecting the Government contention of harm
|
| 835 |
+
from delaying the removal of an alien petitioner because the contention
|
| 836 |
+
EFTA00074934
|
| 837 |
+
|
| 838 |
+
Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page33 of 38
|
| 839 |
+
"substantially weakened" by the "gap of more than ten weeks between the District
|
| 840 |
+
Court's continuation of the stay and the Government's motion to lift the stay").
|
| 841 |
+
Second, expedited consideration of the appeal, on a timeline convenient to
|
| 842 |
+
this Court, will mitigate any minimal harm that might result from a brief stay that
|
| 843 |
+
merely preserves the status quo. This Court anticipated exactly this scenario in the
|
| 844 |
+
Brown decision, directing that any future appeals be assigned to the same panel in
|
| 845 |
+
"the interests of judicial economy." Brown, 929 F.3d at 54.
|
| 846 |
+
Third, plaintiff stipulated to the confidentiality of the deposition material and
|
| 847 |
+
induced Ms. Maxwell to rely on it (setting a perjury trap along the way). Plaintiff
|
| 848 |
+
cannot claim to be harmed when all Ms. Maxwell wants is a meaningful
|
| 849 |
+
opportunity to show she reasonably relied on the plaintiff and the district court's
|
| 850 |
+
promise of confidentiality.
|
| 851 |
+
For his part, Doe 1 also relied on the same promise of confidentiality in
|
| 852 |
+
submitting to his deposition. All Ms. Maxwell is asking is that this Court have a fair
|
| 853 |
+
opportunity to review the merits of the district court's decision before the
|
| 854 |
+
deposition material is unsealed for all time.
|
| 855 |
+
D. The public interest favors a stay.
|
| 856 |
+
Finally, the public interest favors a stay.

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page34 of 38
|
| 861 |
+
First, a stay protects this Court's role in the judicial process. Appellate
|
| 862 |
+
courts have long exercised their right to "hold an order in abeyance while [they]
|
| 863 |
+
assess[] the legality of the order." Nken v. Holder, 556 U.S. 418, 426 (2009). A stay
|
| 864 |
+
pending appeal is simply a "means of ensuring that appellate courts can responsibly
|
| 865 |
+
fulfill their role in the judicial process." Id. at 427; see also Scripps-Howard Radio v.
|
| 866 |
+
F.C.C., 316 U.S. 4, 9-10 (1942) ("[I]t is reasonable that an appellate court should
|
| 867 |
+
be able to prevent irreparable injury to the parties ... resulting from the premature
|
| 868 |
+
enforcement of a determination which may later be found to have been wrong.").
|
| 869 |
+
By contrast, were this Court to deny a stay, Ms. Maxwell's appeal will
|
| 870 |
+
become moot upon unsealing of the deposition material, at which point this Court
|
| 871 |
+
will lose jurisdiction over the appeal. See S.F. Residence Club, 583 F.3d at 756
|
| 872 |
+
(dismissing appeal as moot because appellant failed to seek a stay precluding
|
| 873 |
+
payment of funds to a third-party creditor). A stay serves the public interest by
|
| 874 |
+
protecting this Court's jurisdiction. See Nken, 556 U.S. at 426 (citing the All Writs
|
| 875 |
+
Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a), as a "grant of authority to federal courts to 'issue all writs
|
| 876 |
+
necessary or appropriate in aid of their respective jurisdictions and agreeable to the
|
| 877 |
+
usages and principles of law. '").
|
| 878 |
+
Second, a stay serves the public interest by helping to secure Ms. Maxwell a
|
| 879 |
+
fair trial before an impartial jury. U.S. CONST. amends. V, VI. At her deposition,

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page35 of 38
|
| 884 |
+
Ms. Maxwell was compelled to answer numerous questions about her private,
|
| 885 |
+
consensual, and intimate conduct with other adults. Evidence of that conduct will
|
| 886 |
+
not be admissible in Ms. Maxwell's criminal trial, because it is irrelevant and highly
|
| 887 |
+
prejudicial. See FED. R. EVID. 401, 402, 403, 404(b); United States v. McVeigh, 119
|
| 888 |
+
F.3d 806, 813 (10th Cir. 1997) (upholding district court's sealing of discovery
|
| 889 |
+
materials deemed inadmissible at trial, holding that " disclosure of such [materials]
|
| 890 |
+
would play a negative role in the functioning of the criminal process, by exposing

| 891 |
+
the public generally, as well as potential jurors, to incriminating evidence that the
|
| 892 |
+
law has determined may not be used to support a conviction"'). If her deposition is
|
| 893 |
+
disclosed and her answers revealed —answers she offered only upon the promise of
|
| 894 |
+
confidentiality — potential jurors will be irreparably biased against Ms. Maxwell,
|
| 895 |
+
making it difficult if not impossible to seat a fair and impartial jury. See Patterson v.
|
| 896 |
+
Colorado ex rel. Attorney General of Colo., 205 U.S. 454, 462 (1907) (opinion for the
|
| 897 |
+
Court by Holmes, J.) ("The theory of our [trial] system is that the conclusions to
|
| 898 |
+
be reached in a case will be induced only by evidence and argument in open court,
|
| 899 |
+
and not by any outside influence, whether of private talk or public print.").
|
| 900 |
+
Third, the public has a paramount interest in being able to rely on judicial
|
| 901 |
+
promises of confidentiality unless and until the courts definitively rule that the
|
| 902 |
+
promise of confidentiality is no longer enforceable. See S.E. C., 273 F.3d at 229-31

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page36 of 38
|
| 907 |
+
(citing Martindell, 594 F.2d at 296 (2d Cir. 1979). Unless this Court grants a stay,
|
| 908 |
+
Ms. Maxwell will not be able to test whether the district court correctly concluded
|
| 909 |
+
that its promise of confidentiality was no longer binding.
|
| 910 |
+
Conclusion
|
| 911 |
+
At the conclusion of its decision in Brown, this Court offered a "cautionary
|
| 912 |
+
note" to the public and the press:
|
| 913 |
+
[C]ourt filings are, in some respects, particularly susceptible to fraud.
|
| 914 |
+
For while the threat of defamation actions may deter malicious
|
| 915 |
+
falsehoods in standard publications, this threat is non-existent with
|
| 916 |
+
respect to certain court filings. This is so because, under New York
|
| 917 |
+
law (which governs the underlying defamation claim here), absolute
|
| 918 |
+
immunity from liability for defamation exists for oral or written
|
| 919 |
+
statements made ... in connection with a proceeding before a court.
|
| 920 |
+
Thus, although the act of filing a document with a court might be
|
| 921 |
+
thought to lend that document additional credibility, in fact,
|
| 922 |
+
allegations appearing in such documents might be less credible than
|
| 923 |
+
those published elsewhere.
|
| 924 |
+
[T]he media does the public a profound disservice when it
|
| 925 |
+
reports on parties' allegations uncritically. We have previously
|
| 926 |
+
observed that courts cannot possibly discredit every statement or
|
| 927 |
+
document turned up in the course of litigation, and we have criticized
|
| 928 |
+
the use by the media of the somewhat misleading term court records in
|
| 929 |
+
referring to such items. Even ordinarily critical readers may take the
|
| 930 |
+
reference to court papers as some sort of marker of reliability. This
|
| 931 |
+
would be a mistake.
|
| 932 |
+

Case 20-2413, Document 10-1, 07/30/2020, 2896538, Page37 of 38
|
| 936 |
+
Brown, 929 F.3d at 52-53 (footnotes and quotations omitted). This note of caution
|
| 937 |
+
is even more apt today, now that the government has indicted Ms. Maxwell and the
|
| 938 |
+
media circus is descending.
|
| 939 |
+
Unless this Court stays the unsealing of the deposition material, there will be
|
| 940 |
+
nothing to protect against uncritical reporting of the deposition material's contents,
|
| 941 |
+
reporting that will only undermine the ability to secure a fair trial for Ms. Maxwell.
|
| 942 |
+
This Court should stay pending appeal the district court's order unsealing
|
| 943 |
+
the deposition material.

|
| 7 |
+
March 20, 2011
|
| 8 |
+
To whom it may concern:
|
| 9 |
+
I served as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida from 2005 through 2009. Over the
|
| 10 |
+
past weeks, I have read much regarding Mr. Jeffrey Epstein. Some appears true, some appears
|
| 11 |
+
distorted. I thought it appropriate to provide some background, with two caveats: (i) under
|
| 12 |
+
Justice Department guidelines, I cannot discuss privileged internal communications among
|
| 13 |
+
Department attorneys and (il) I no longer have access to the original documents, and as the
|
| 14 |
+
matter is now nearly 4 years old, the precision of memory is reduced.
|
| 15 |
+
The Epstein matter was originally presented to the Palm Beach County State Attorney. Palm
|
| 16 |
+
Beach Police alleged that Epstein unlawfully hired underage high-school females to provide him
|
| 17 |
+
sexually lewd and erotic massages. Police sought felony charges that would have resulted in a
|
| 18 |
+
term of imprisonment. According to press reports, however, in 2006 the State Attorney, in part
|
| 19 |
+
due to concerns regarding the quality of the evidence, agreed to charge Epstein only with one
|
| 20 |
+
count of aggravated assault with no intent to commit a felony. That charge would have resulted
|
| 21 |
+
in no jail time, no requirement to register as a sexual offender and no restitution for the underage
|
| 22 |
+
victims.
|
| 23 |
+
Local police were dissatisfied with the State Attorney's conclusions, and requested a federal
|
| 24 |
+
investigation. Federal authorities received the State's evidence and engaged in additional
|
| 25 |
+
investigation. Prosecutors weighed the quality of the evidence and the likelihood for success at
|
| 26 |
+
trial. With a federal case, there were two additional considerations. First, a federal criminal
|
| 27 |
+
prosecution requires that the crime be more than local; it must have an interstate nexus. Second,
|
| 28 |
+
as the matter was initially charged by the state, the federal responsibility is, to some extent, to
|
| 29 |
+
back-stop state authorities to ensure that there is no miscarriage of justice, and not to also
|
| 30 |
+
prosecute federally that which has already been charged at the state level.
|
| 31 |
+
After considering the quality of the evidence and the additional considerations, prosecutors
|
| 32 |
+
concluded that the state charge was insufficient. In early summer 2007, the prosecutors and
|
| 33 |
+
agents in this case met with Mr. Epstein's attorney, Roy Black. Mr. Black is perhaps best known
|
| 34 |
+
for his successful defense of William Kennedy Smith. The prosecutors presented Epstein a
|
| 35 |
+
choice: plead to more serious state felony charges (that would result in 2 years' imprisonment,
|
| 36 |
+
registration as a sexual offender, and restitution for the victims) or else prepare for a federal
|
| 37 |
+
felony trial.
|
| 38 |
+
What followed was a year-long assault on the prosecution and the prosecutors. I use the word
|
| 39 |
+
assault intentionally, as the defense in this case was more aggressive than any which I, or the
|
| 40 |
+
prosecutors in my office, had previously encountered. Mr. Epstein hired an army of legal
|
| 41 |
+
superstars: Harvard Professor Alan Dershowitz, former Judge and then Pepperdine Law Dean
|
| 42 |
+
Kenneth Starr, former Deputy Assistant to the President and then Kirkland & Ellis Partner Jay
|
| 43 |
+
Lefkowitz, and several others, including prosecutors who had formally worked in the U.S.

Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 361-68 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/10/2016 Page 3 of 4
|
| 49 |
+
Attorney's Office and in the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section of the Justice Department.
|
| 50 |
+
Defense attorneys next requested a meeting with me to challenge the prosecution and the terms
|
| 51 |
+
previously presented by the prosecutors in their meeting with Mr. Black. The prosecution team
|
| 52 |
+
and I met with defense counsel in Fall 2007, and I reaffirmed the office's position: two years,
|
| 53 |
+
registration and restitution, or trial.
|
| 54 |
+
Over the next several months, the defense team presented argument after argument claiming that
|
| 55 |
+
felony criminal proceedings against Epstein were unsupported by the evidence and lacked a basis
|
| 56 |
+
in law, and that the office's insistence on jail-time was motivated by a zeal to overcharge a man
|
| 57 |
+
merely because he is wealthy. They bolstered their arguments with legal opinions from well-
|
| 58 |
+
known legal experts. One member of the defense team warned me that the office's excess zeal in
|
| 59 |
+
forcing a good man to serve time in jail might be the subject of a book if we continued to
|
| 60 |
+
proceed with this matter. My office systematically considered and rejected each argument, and
|
| 61 |
+
when we did, my office's decisions were appealed to Washington. As to the warning, I ignored
|
| 62 |
+
it.
|
| 63 |
+
The defense strategy was not limited to legal issues. Defense counsel investigated individual
|
| 64 |
+
prosecutors and their families, looking for personal peccadilloes that may provide a basis for
|
| 65 |
+
disqualification. Disqualifying a prosecutor is an effective (though rarely used) strategy, as
|
| 66 |
+
eliminating the individuals most familiar with the facts and thus most qualified to take a case to
|
| 67 |
+
trial harms likelihood for success. Defense counsel tried to disqualify at least two prosecutors. I
|
| 68 |
+
carefully reviewed, and then rejected, these arguments.
|
| 69 |
+
Despite this army of attorneys, the office held firm to the terms first presented to Mr. Black in
|
| 70 |
+
the original meeting. On June 30, 2008, after yet another last minute appeal to Washington D.C.
|
| 71 |
+
was rejected, Epstein pled guilty in state court. He was to serve 18 months imprisonment,
|
| 72 |
+
register as a sexual offender for life and provide restitution to the victims.
|
| 73 |
+
Some may feel that the prosecution should have been tougher. Evidence that has come to light
|
| 74 |
+
since 2007 may encourage that view. Many victims have since spoken out, filing detailed
|
| 75 |
+
statements in civil cases seeking damages. Physical evidence has since been discovered. Had
|
| 76 |
+
these additional statements and evidence been known, the outcome may have been different. But
|
| 77 |
+
they were not known to us at the time.
|
| 78 |
+
A prosecution decision must be based on admissible facts known at the time. In cases of this
|
| 79 |
+
type, those are unusually difficult because victims are frightened and often decline to testify or if
|
| 80 |
+
they do speak, they give contradictory statements. Our judgment in this case, based on the
|
| 81 |
+
evidence known at the time, was that it was better to have a billionaire serve time in jail, register
|
| 82 |
+
as a sex offender and pay his victims restitution than risk a trial with a reduced likelihood of
|
| 83 |
+
success. I supported that judgment then, and based on the state of the law as it then stood and the
|
| 84 |
+
evidence known at that time, I would support that judgment again.
|
| 85 |
+
Epstein's treatment, while in state custody, likewise may encourage the view that the office
|
| 86 |
+
should have been tougher. Epstein appears to have received highly unusual treatment while in
|
| 87 |
+
jail. Although the terms of confinement in a state prison are a matter appropriately left to the
|
| 88 |

|
| 93 |
+
State of Florida, and not federal authorities, without doubt, the treatment that he received while
|
| 94 |
+
in state custody undermined the purpose of a jail sentence.
|
| 95 |
+
Some may also believe that the prosecution should have been tougher in retaliation for the
|
| 96 |
+
defense's tactics. The defense, arguably, often failed to negotiate in good faith. They would
|
| 97 |
+
obtain concessions as part of a negotiation and agree to proceed, only to change their minds, and
|
| 98 |
+
appeal the office's position to Washington. The investigations into the family lives of individual
|
| 99 |
+
prosecutors were, in my opinion, uncalled for, as were the accusations of bias and / or
|
| 100 |
+
misconduct against individual prosecutors. At times, some prosecutors felt that we should just
|
| 101 |
+
go to trial, and at times I felt that frustration myself. What was right in the first meeting,
|
| 102 |
+
however, remained right irrespective of defense tactics. Individuals have a constitutional right to
|
| 103 |
+
a defense. The aggressive exercise of that right should not be punished, nor should a defense
|
| 104 |
+
counsel's exercise of their right to appeal a U.S. Attorney to Washington, D.C. Prosecutors must
|
| 105 |
+
be careful not to allow frustration and anger with defense counsel to influence their judgment.
|
| 106 |
+
After the plea, 1 recall receiving several phone calls. One was from the FBI Special Agent-In-
|
| 107 |
+
Charge. He called to offer congratulations. He had been at many of the meetings regarding this
|
| 108 |
+
case. He was aware of the tactics of the defense, and he called to praise our prosecutors for
|
| 109 |
+
holding firm against the likes of Messrs. Black, Dershowitz, Lefkowitz and Starr. It was a proud
|
| 110 |
+
moment. I also received calls or communications from Messrs. Dershowitz, Lefkowitz and
|
| 111 |
+
Starr. I had known all three individuals previously, from my time in law school and at Kirkland
|
| 112 |
+
& Ellis in the mid 90s. They all sought to make peace. I agreed to talk and meet with each of
|
| 113 |
+
them after Epstein pled guilty, as I think it important that prosecutors battle defense attorneys in
|
| 114 |
+
a case and then move on. I have tried, yet I confess that has been difficult to do fully in this case.
|
| 115 |
+
The bottom line is this: Mr. Jeffrey Epstein, a billionaire, served time in jail and is now a
|
| 116 |
+
registered sex offender. He has been required to pay his victims restitution, though restitution
|
| 117 |
+
clearly cannot compensate for the crime. And we know much more today about his crimes
|
| 118 |
+
because the victims have come forward to speak out. Some may disagree with the prosecutorial
|
| 119 |
+
judgments made in this case, but those individuals are not the ones who at the time reviewed the
|
| 120 |
+
evidence available for trial and assessed the likelihood of success.
|
| 121 |

Got it, but some of these records relate directly to the July 23 incident. I will identify pages that refer to that incident or
|
| 15 |
+
otherwise to his suicidality.

I think the position
|
| 23 |
+
ultimately settled on is that medical records unrelated to things we care about (i.e., that aren't
|
| 24 |
+
about suicidality or his ultimate suicide) are fine to produce.

Are we okay with disclosing Epstein's medical records? Some of the records are directly related to the July 23 incident,
|
| 32 |
+
although others relate to other conditions. I had thought that all of his medical records were being withheld.

Yes, you should have seen all this before, but it now has BOP's has segmented redactions. As with prior rounds, 1 am
|
| 44 |
+
circulating to the Crim teams and OIG before the production version actually goes out.
|
| 45 |
+
This is mainly emails, but also includes at the start redacted medical records, not withheld in full under 7(A). Thanks.

All,
|
| 72 |
+
BOP has provided a production version of what I hope is the last set of documents to be released in Times v. BOP, 20-cv-
|
| 73 |
+
833. I have saved the combined production file, named "2nd August 2020 Production, Times v BOP, 20-cv-833," here:
|
| 74 |
+
from BOP\2nd August Production
|
| 75 |
+
Could the teams please review and confirm that this file can be released to the Times? Given the timing, it would be best
|
| 76 |
+
to release these by the end of the week. Please let me know if you don't think review by Friday will be possible.
|
| 77 |
+
Thanks,
|
| 78 |

Subject: Times v BOP - Additional Production
|
| 101 |

Hi all,
|
| 102 |
+
As you know, we agreed with the Times that BOP would produce some documents after the SJ papers were filed in Times
|
| 103 |
+
v. BOP. It looks like it is going to take BOP through the end of next week to get the emails together. In the meantime, we
|
| 104 |
+
are going to produce what should be the remaining non-email documents (with redactions) and a portion of the
|
| 105 |
+
remaining emails.
|
| 106 |
+
EFTA00072705
|
| 107 |
+
|
| 108 |
+
The production version of these documents is attached here. Can you please review and confirm that it is okay for the
|
| 109 |
+
attached to be sent to the Times? It should all be documents you've seen before-and I think I circulated most of the
|
| 110 |
+
attached production version to you earlier this week. But there are now some new pages at the end—also not sure | got
|
| 111 |
+
sign off from everyone on the production versions of the earlier stuff. We'd like to send this out by Tuesday, August 11, at
|
| 112 |
+
latest if possible.
|
| 113 |
+
Also, I'm copying DI
|
| 114 |
+
to speed.
|
| 115 |
+
here. I will be out 08/12-08/18, and as graciously agreed to cover this case while I am out.
|
| 116 |
+
(If all goes according to plan, not much will be happening then anyway). Please copy her going forward so she can get up
|
| 117 |
+
Thanks and have a great weekend,
|
| 118 |

The original iteration of this ended up going through - see the attached thread. Among other issues, her counsel
|
| 16 |

apparently advised a year ago that she was not in a position to be interviewed at the time, though it looks like |
|

referred it to FBI in any event. Just FYI.

Hope you're both doing well. Following up on our last conversation, we wanted to send along a few documents in order
|
| 43 |
+
to facilitate our conversation about identifying an appropriate witness from JP Morgan. Attached is a zip file containing a
|
| 44 |
+
few draft exhibits. We are still working on finalizing exhibits, but we thought it made sense to start the conversation
|
| 45 |
+
about this sooner rather than later. Please let us know if you have any questions or if a call would be useful.

|
| 166 |
+
Act request or any compulsory process commanding the disclosure of

| 167 |
+
the agreement, it will provide notice to Epstein before making that
|
| 168 |
+
disclosure.
|
| 169 |
+
Epstein understands that the United States Attorney has no authority to require the
|
| 170 |
+
State Attorney's Office to abide by any terms of this agreement. Epstein understands that
|
| 171 |
+
it is his obligation to undertake discussions with the State Attorney's Office and to use his
|
| 172 |
+
best efforts to ensure compliance with these procedures, which compliance will be necessary
|
| 173 |
+
to satisfy the United States' interest. Epstein also understands that it is his obligation to use
|
| 174 |
+
his best efforts to convince the Judge of the 15th Judicial Circuit to accept Epstein's binding
|
| 175 |
+
recommendation regarding the sentence to be imposed, and understands that the failure to

| 176 |
+
do so will be a breach of the agreement.

+
By signing this agreement, Epstein asserts and certifies that each of these terms is
|
| 187 |
+
material to this agreement and is supported by independent consideration and that a breach
|
| 188 |
+
of any one of these conditions allows the United States to elect to terminate the agreement
|
| 189 |
+
and to investigate and prosecute Epstein and any other individual or entity for any and all
|
| 190 |
+
federal offenses.
|
| 191 |
+
By signing this agreement, Epstein asserts and certifies that he is aware of the fact that
|
| 192 |
+
the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States provides that in all criminal
|
| 193 |
+
prosecutions the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial. Epstein further
|
| 194 |
+
is aware that Rule 48(b) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure provides that the Court
|
| 195 |
+
may dismiss an indictment, information, or complaint for unnecessary delay in presenting
|
| 196 |
+
a charge to the Grand Jury, filing an information, or in bringing a defendant to trial. Epstein
|
| 197 |
+
hereby requests that the United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida defer such
|
| 198 |
+
prosecution. Epstein agrees and consents that any delay from the date of this Agreement to
|
| 199 |
+
the date of initiation of prosecution, as provided for in the terms expressed herein, shall be
|
| 200 |
+
deemed to be a necessary delay at his own request, and he hereby waives any defense to such
|
| 201 |
+
prosecution on the ground that such delay operated to deny him rights under Rule 48(b) of
|
| 202 |
+
the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution of the
|
| 203 |
+
United States to a speedy trial or to bar the prosecution by reason of the running of the statute
|
| 204 |
+
of limitations for a period of months equal to the period between the signing of this
|
| 205 |
+
agreement and the breach of this agreement as to those offenses that were the subject of the
|
| 206 |
+
grand jury's investigation. Epstein futher asserts and certifies that he understands that the
|
| 207 |
+
Fifth Amendment and Rule 7(a) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure provide that all
|
| 208 |
+
felonies must be charged in an indictment presented to a grand jury. Epstein hereby agrees
|
| 209 |
+
and consents that, if a prosecution against him is instituted for any offense that was the
|
| 210 |
+
subject of the grand jury's investigation, it may be by way of an Information signed and filed
|
| 211 |
+
by the United States Attorney, and hereby waives his right to be indicted by a grand jury as
|
| 212 |
+
to any such offense.

INVESTIGATION OF
|
| 279 |

JEFFREY EPSTEIN
|
| 280 |
+
ADDENDUM TO THE NON-PROSECUTION AGREEMENT
|
| 281 |
+
T APPEARING that the parties seck to clarify certain provisions of page paragraph paragraph
|
| 282 |
+
of the Non-Prosecution Agreement (hereinafter "paragraph 7"), that agreement is modified a
|
| 283 |
+
follows:
|
| 284 |
+
7A.
|
| 285 |
+
The United States has the right to assign to an independent third-party the responsibility
|
| 286 |
+
for consulting with and, subject to the good faith approval of Epstein's counsel, selecting
|
| 287 |
+
e attorney representative for the individuals identified under the Agreement. If th
|
| 288 |
+
Inited States elects to assign this responsibility to an independent third-party, both th
|
| 289 |
+
United States and Epstein retain the right to make good faith objections to the attorney
|
| 290 |
+
representative suggested by the independent third-party prior to the final designation of
|
| 291 |
+
the attorney representative.
|
| 292 |
+
7B.
|
| 293 |
+
The parties will jointly prepare a short written submission to the independent third-party
|
| 294 |
+
regarding the role of the attorney representative and regarding Epstein's Agreement to
|
| 295 |
+
pay such attorney representative his or her regular customary hourly rate for representing
|
| 296 |
+
such vietims subject to the provisions of paragraph C, infra.
|
| 297 |
+
7C.
|
| 298 |
+
Pursuant to additional paragraph 7A, Epstein has agreed to pay the fees of the attorney
|
| 299 |
+
representative selected by the independent third party. This provision, however, shall not
|
| 300 |
+
obligate Epstein to pay the fees and costs of contested litigation filed against him. Thus,
|
| 301 |
+
If after consideration of potential settlements, an attorney representative elects to file a
|
| 302 |
+
contested lawsuit pursuant to 18 U.S.C. s 2255 or elects to pursue any other contested
|
| 303 |
+
remedy, the paragraph 7 obligation of the Agreement to pay the costs of the attorney
|
| 304 |
+
representative, as opposed to any statutory or other obligations to pay reasonable
|
| 305 |
+
attorneys foes and costs such as those contained in s 2255 to bear the costs of the attorney
|
| 306 |
+
representative, shall cease.

Subject: Forfeiture Funding Requests for Next Year
|
| 38 |
+
Chiefs,
|
| 39 |
+
As discussed yesterday at the Crim unit chiefs meeting, each year we obtain a substantial amount of funding for case
|
| 40 |
+
expenses from forfeiture funds allocated by EOUSA.
|
| 41 |
+
I will be compiling the Office's requests for such funding for
|
| 42 |
+
FY2O (September '20 to September '21), which are due to EOUSA on April 12.
|
| 43 |
+
Below is a description of the types of expenses covered, and attached are (1) requests submitted by all your units for last
|
| 44 |
+
year as a starting point; and (2) a spreadsheet of all the requests by unit to make it easier to pull yours out; and (3) the
|
| 45 |
+
FY20 Template Form to fill out for each case. Please complete (or have your AUSAs complete) the Form for each case
|
| 46 |
+
where there could be significant expenses, and email them to me and Andrew by the end of next Monday, April 8. If you
|
| 47 |
+
have line AUSAs fill the forms out, please gather them all together to send us in one batch, and make sure they do NOT
|
| 48 |
+
send them direct to EOUSA via the email listed on the form.
|
| 49 |
+
We can request funds to cover all manner of non-routine expenses, such as:
|
| 50 |
+
(1) Outside vendors for financial analysis/tracing, document review and discovery support, forensic analysis, etc.
|
| 51 |
+
(2) Expert consultants (but NOT expert witnesses for actual testimony, which comes from a different fund)
|
| 52 |
+
(3) Data- or document-hosting
|
| 53 |
+
(4) Large translation expenses
|
| 54 |
+
(5) Foreign travel
|
| 55 |
+
This is not an exhaustive list and we have been able to use this funding for a wide variety of expenses in the past, so you
|
| 56 |
+
should consider anything you think may be helpful to an investigation. Any questions, just let us know.
|
| 57 |
+
Thanks!

We will inquire. If there is a particular piece of information or a prior communication with MCC that you have that you
|
| 11 |
+
believe would be helpful in our discussions with MCC, we'd ask that you pass it along to the extent you can.

Good morning,
|
| 23 |
+
Thanks for tracking down the Surveillance video.
|
| 24 |
+
We still have reason to believe that photographs and video were taken of the cell during the time the officers initially
|
| 25 |
+
responded to the cell and shortly after Mr. Epstein was removed from the cell.
|
| 26 |
+
In light of the miscommunication regarding the surveillance video we would ask that you check again on the other photos
|
| 27 |
+
and video. Relatedly, we would like to view a log of all the photographs.
|
| 28 |
+
Thank you. Enjoy the holiday.

As you may have just seen in our letter filed on the docket, after further discussion with MCC, we found that the video
|
| 39 |
+
was preserved upon your request and are working to obtain a copy. We will make it available for review at our Office,
|
| 40 |
+
Tand I are both out next week, so it may not be available for your review until the New Year.

Your Honor:
|
| 12 |
+
This statement is in support of Ghislaine Maxwell's request for bail and her character.
|
| 13 |
+
I Anne Holve am Ghislaine Maxwell's eldest sister, and eldest of the Maxwell siblings since our late
|
| 14 |
+
eldest brother Michael, died after a car accident in 1961. I am 72 years old, a Graduate from Oxford
|
| 15 |
+
University with a Modern Languages Degree (French and Italian). I trained as an Actor at the Central
|
| 16 |
+
School of Speech and Drama and pursed an acting career for many years after that. Then went into
|
| 17 |
+
Publishing for a few years and later on trained as a Montessori teacher teaching young children in
|
| 18 |
+
schools for many years. In my early 40s, I began training as a Psychotherapist and am now a licensed
|
| 19 |
+
therapist in the United Kingdom, specializing in Cognititive Behavioral Therapy and Clinical
|
| 20 |
+
Hypnotherapy, with an active practice in North London. I am still working and have been in this
|
| 21 |
+
profession for 20 years.
|
| 22 |
+
I have of course known my sister Ghislaine since she was born when I was 14 years old and
|
| 23 |
+
witnessed her develop into a lovely, energetic and capable young woman. Growing up with our very
|
| 24 |
+
wealthy and successful father was definitely not an easy experience. He was highly domineering and
|
| 25 |
+
exacting and quick to anger if we did not immediately jump and/or respond to his questions and
|
| 26 |
+
demands. He could be intensely crushing of our dreams and efforts as we grew into young
|
| 27 |
+
adulthood, and even after. But each of us, including Ghislaine, also learned a relentless work ethic
|
| 28 |
+
and the importance of key moral values from both our parents such as "concentration, consideration
|
| 29 |
+
and conciseness" - a favorite dictum of our father's but also and highly important too was the social
|
| 30 |
+
training we all received in welcoming, no matter the inconvenience or the surprise to look after all
|
| 31 |
+
our father's many guests who came every weekend from all over the world whilst we were growing
|
| 32 |
+
up, including scientists, political figures and business leaders.
|
| 33 |
+
We were all expected to entertain
|
| 34 |
+
them. This might include playing tennis with them, showing them around the city of Oxford (where
|
| 35 |
+
our home was) but for the most part it consisted of basically engaging in conversation with them and
|
| 36 |
+
helping them to feel welcome and to enjoy their visit with our family.
|
| 37 |
+
Though Ghislaine left the United Kingdom for America just before our father died, as did our twin
|
| 38 |
+
siblings in the earlier decades, we have always remained close as a family and kept in contact. I know
|
| 39 |
+
that many of my nieces and nephews and their friends have visited and benefitted from staying with
|
| 40 |
+
Ghislaine during their vacations and for life experience over the years, and Ghislaine asked if our
|
| 41 |
+
daughter would like to come over for a few months after she finished university over here. It was a
|
| 42 |
+
EFTA00065670
|
| 43 |
+
|
| 44 |
+
kind and generous invitation from her and we had no hesitation whatsoever in sending her to spend
|
| 45 |
+
time with Ghislaine.
|
| 46 |
+
I must attest to my utter shock at the arrest of my sister on the charges she is facing. From all I know
|
| 47 |
+
of her and the family values we have all been brought up with and live our lives by, she would not be
|
| 48 |
+
capable of such behavior. I never witnessed Ghislaine be violent or remotely sexually inappropriate
|
| 49 |
+
with anybody of any age or gender, ever. She is a warm, loving and generous human being and 1 am
|
| 50 |
+
told she is bearing up with great courage and fortitude inside the detention center and those are
|
| 51 |
+
some of the qualities in her character that are sustaining her in her current awful circumstances. I
|
| 52 |
+
believe she is innocent of the charges brought against her and determined to prove her innocence. I
|
| 53 |
+
believe she wants nothing else but to fight these charges in court in July 2021 and to clear her name
|
| 54 |
+
and therefore would never seek to flee anywhere if she were granted bail. She, like all people so
|
| 55 |
+
charged, have a constitutional right to due process and indeed she has declared herself to be
|
| 56 |
+
innocent of all charges. She is innocent until proven otherwise and she like all people so charged - is
|
| 57 |
+
entitled to a fair trial by a jury of her peers.
|
| 58 |
+
1, like all my brothers and sisters, have complete faith in Ghislaine's respect for the judicial process
|
| 59 |
+
and in her determination to fight all the charges brought against her. I am certain and confident of
|
| 60 |
+
Ghislaine's trustworthiness and of the importance of her achieving bail in order to properly be able
|
| 61 |
+
to prepare her defense to the charges she faces.
|
| 62 |
+
Yours respectfully,
|
| 63 |
+
