Subject: RE: Letter re Epstein and Protective Order¶
During our telephonic hearing, I received the clear impression that Judge Marra wanted the other victims (non-parties to the Jane Doe litigation), would be given the opportunity to see the Agreement, subject to each one agreeing to be bound by the protective order. I believe it would be contrary to Judge Marra’s intent for us to go through the trouble of creating a mechanism for the other non-party victims to have access to the Agreement, and then not tell them there is an Agreement.¶
Also, does CVRA impose any obligation on us, independent of what Judge Marra ordered, to advise the victims of the Agreement?¶
Good morning, everyone.¶

I have attached a letter from Jay Lefkowitz that came in by fax on Friday night. The good news is that they seem to be in agreement regarding Mr. Josefsberg. Most of the letter doesn’t really require a comment, but I wanted to get feedback regarding the notification to the victims of their right to see the agreement. Here is the language from my proposed victim notification letter:¶
“In addition, a judge has ordered that the United States make available to any designated victim (and/or her attorney) a copy of the actual agreement between Mr. Epstein and the United States, so long as the victim (and/or her attorney) reviews, signs, and agrees to be bound by a Protective Order entered by the Court. If Ms. would like to review the Agreement, please let me know, and I will forward a copy of the Protective Order for her signature.”¶
Lefkowitz objects, but I am wondering whether agrees that the spirit of our discussions with Judge Marra requires such a notification. If we make the entire agreement available to Mr. Josefsberg and he conveys that information to all of his clients, the concern becomes moot, I suppose.¶
Lastly, from my discussion with , it appears that the Office does not want to add to the list the names of victims identified after the date of signing the September agreement unless our investigation had provided enough information that we were prepared to include them in the indictment – . the New York girls – and that you do not want me to re-add to the list, even though we have extensive corroboration of her involvement with Epstein. Can someone please confirm?¶
Thank you all.¶
