Subject: RE: counsel having difficulty meeting with client
Attachments: TEXT.htm, Mime.822
With apologies for the weekend email, we have a defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, who was arrested last night and is currently being detained at MCC, and is expected to be presented on an indictment tomorrow. His attorney, Martin Weinberg, has represented him in the past, and represents him in connection with our case and has been in touch with us throughout the weekend. He went to MCC today to meet with him in advance of the presentment tomorrow, but was just told he is not allowed in because he is from out-of-state.
We’re concerned about the defendant not having access to his attorney in advance of the presentment (as we would be for any defendant) and so I wanted to reach out to you—is it at all possible to address this issue so Mr. Weinberg can meet with his client this evening? I’m available anytime at 347-947-0708 to discuss, if that’s helpful, or Mr. Weinberg can also be reached directly at 617-901-3472 if that’s easier (though if you reach out directly to him if you could please just let me know afterward I’d be grateful).
thanks very much, Alex.
