FYI, someone is clearly leaking details of indictment and press release, down to the fact that our unit is handling case. That’s now in Daily Beast and Miami Herald.

I guess we’ll see if this changes, but it looks for now as though his side doesn’t have much wiggle room to spin this in any positive way. This is from this Daily Beast story:

“Epstein’s attorney Martin Weinberg declined to comment when reached by The Daily Beast on Saturday night.”

For what it’s worth, the phone activity seems to be quieting down. I think reporters got (from wherever) what they needed to do stories. They seem happy to wait till Monday.

We let them know about Monday. We’re not required, but we’d probably just give them a heads up if we issue any statements.

Question from about OPA - have we notified them of our press plans re: Epstein (if we’re even required to do so). Do we have to alert them if we decide to put out a statement tonight (I presume no but just checking). Thanks
