| This morning's press conference took us by surprise -- our supervisors did not say anything to us about it in                                                                                                                                                                                          |

advance, and in particular had no idea that there would be comments about the active investigation. Our understanding now is that the event was in connection with Safe Horizon, the victim services organization, and that Geoff answered at least ones question about the investigation, relating to Prince Andrew. We just heard from that he spoke to about it (I think earlier today?) so everybody is playing catch up.

Subject: Press Conference at Epstein's

All,

I have been getting some questions about the press conference that occurred today at Epstein's mansion, do any of you know that was about? Our media affairs department has been getting questions. In addition, our Victim Specialists have been fielding calls from irate victims who weren't notified.
