(*) Note: Includes any cases pending where telephone records were generated between 09/01/2001 and present but the matter is now closed.

(**) Note: In special circumstances where immediate upload is requested, the field office shall include a justification for the request.

Pursuant to a request for processing support entered into the Baleen Sweep SharePoint (http://home/teamsites/baleen-sweep/default.aspx) under this same Baleen Sweep case number and serial (one request per target), it is requested that the DocLab provide scanning and automation assistance in support of captioned investigation. In addition, STAO ACU should process the resulting OCR scans and load the toll data into Telephone Application for telephone target . An over production review of the material was successfully conducted. It is understood that Baleen Sweep does not process and load subscriber data.

Miami uses the TA, as its centralized repository for storage and retrieval of scanned (hard copy) and electronic intelligence information in support of investigative and

intelligence operations. It is requested that the enclosed telephone records be scanned at the Case File level for incorporation into TA. It is understood that the material will be saved in the following file types: TIFF, TXT, searchable PDF, and non-searchable PDF.

It is requested that the TXT files be forwarded by DocLab to STAO ACU for data formatting to support future incorporation into TA, as appropriate. The material is to be returned to Miami in the form that it was received at DocLab. Miami will have the ability to rapidly conduct key word and document control information searches on voluminous amounts of data associated with the case through the Bureau-wide investigative tool, TA.

Miami Division opened an obstruction of justice case against subject ALFREDO RODRIGUEZ in October 2009. RODRIGUEZ was the former house manager and butler to JEFFREY EPSTEIN, the subject of a child prostitution case. During his employment, RODRIGUEZ came into possession of an address book containing names and telephone numbers of what are believed to be additional underage victims of EPSTEIN that were previously unknown.

RODRIGUEZ attempted to sell the address book to a UCE rather than turn it over law enforcement or attorneys in response to federal subpoenas

issued during pending civil litigation. Toll records obtained from the address book are believed to belong to EPSTEIN and his associates or to potential underage victims. All information and phone records should be considered unclassified in nature.

NOTE: If the documents are not evidence, or the documents are subject to Grand Jury 6e, please state as such.

ATTENTION FOR SECURITY: Miami is aware of the classification level of the records being submitted to DocLab. It is the responsibility of the sender to make sure all documents are shipped in the proper manner.

ATTENTION FOR EVIDENCE SCANNING: All coordination for the temporary transfer of evidentiary material to the DocLab will be coordinated directly with Miami Evidence Control Technician (ECT). Miami is only sending documentary evidence. As necessary, the ECT has split the 1B if documentary and non-documentary evidence are co-mingled in one 1B. Also, any documentary evidence requiring forensic analysis must be

submitted to the Laboratory Division first, not DocLab.

SECRET HIGH MEDIA: DocLab scans all documents classified SECRET and below on a SECRET high system called the Document Conversion System (DCS). All media returned from DCS will be classified SECRET. This does not change the classifications of the documents, just the media on which they are stored. Should you need UNCLASSIFIED media, DocLab can run the stored media through Integrity to return UNCLASSIFIED documents on UNCLASSIFIED media.

Miami is aware that this process is labor intensive and will make the request only as necessary. Under routine conditions, DocLab can return SECRET high media faster than UNCLASSIFIED media

Non-Evidence items have been shipped to:
