Emails between an attorney and AUSA Maurene Comey on access to Maxwell's bail hearing

Dear Gloria,¶

Wendy forwarded your message to me. Thank you for reaching out. Unfortunately, pursuant to the Court’s order, access to a separate phone line will be limited to the parties and victims who are covered by the indictment. That separate phone line will have a limited capacity of callers and cannot be further extended. We, of course, understand that you and your clients have an interest in observing the hearing, and if you and/or any of your clients are able to attend the live video feed of the hearing, we will work with courthouse staff to ensure that you have priority of seating in a socially distant manner. To that end, please let me know if you or any of your clients intend to view the live video feed in person, so that we can make arrangements for your seating.¶

Best,¶

Subject: Access to the audio phone line for the bail hearing for G. Maxwell on Tuesday¶

Dear Wendy,¶

Thank you for the notifications concerning the arraignment and bail hearing for G. Maxwell scheduled for Tuesday, 7/14/20. I am concerned that many of my clients, who are Epstein victims and who have spoken to the FBI and prosecutors, may not be able to get through on the phone line provided to the public and the press to hear the live audio feed of the proceedings on Tuesday because of the number of people who may be seeking to call. The court order states that “The court will provide counsel for both sides an additional dial-in number to be used to ensure audio access to the proceeding for non-speaking co-counsel, alleged victims, and any family members of the defendant.”¶

Although none of the victims whom I represent have had charges filed for them in reference to Ms. Maxwell, would they and would I be able to have access to the additional dial-in number to be sure that we can hear the proceeding? Would you or the prosecutors be willing to notify the court to ask this question on Monday? Some of my clients did come into contact with and were victims of Ms. Maxwell, although not during the time period alleged in the indictment.¶

I would appreciate your response on Monday so that I may notify my clients and let them know if there is an additional number that they can call in the event that they can’t get through on the phone line which is for the press and the public. It would be very sad and disappointing if Epstein victims were not able to listen to this proceeding because of the number of individuals from the public and press who may flood the phone lines.¶
