Many thanks for the response,¶
Might you be able to be in a position to do a background briefing on any of this by December?¶
We are considering pushing broadcast to January and anticipate things might change regarding the investigation by then. Any background you can give us later in November or December -entirely confidentially would be brilliant.¶

Subject: Epstein investigation -current status query - deadline Friday 1pm¶
To whom it may concern,¶
I am producing a documentary which will broadcast in the UK on the 9th December 2019.¶
I am currently filming and so require ongoing updates as to the FBIs investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and associates.¶
May I please get an update as to the current status of the investigation? Including the following details:¶
-
Is the investigation continuing?
-
Are British authorities cooperating with this investigation?
-
Have you (to date) contacted Buckingham palace or the British consulate in relation to Prince Andrew, the Duke of York?

-
Can you confirm that you have (a) recovered and (b) are analysing a library of images and videos from Jeffrey Epstein’s homes?
-
Can you confirm that Prince Andrew / Duke of York is present in those image files.
DEADLINE FOR QUESTIONS 4 AND 5 - IS MONDAY 12:30PM NY TIME.¶
Obviously, if you can answer all five questions by tomorrow I would appreciate that.¶
This is not for publication / broadcast yet - there is an embargo of December 2nd on anything you tell me here.¶
