Hi Drew – Sorry to bother you, but the plea negotiations are getting fast and furious. Epstein’s lawyers are fixated on this idea of a “victim’s fund” rather than having the girls file separate 2255 actions. I know that the reason they want to do it is not out of the goodness of their hearts but to keep this stuff out of the public Court files, but in some ways it will help the girls, too. Do you know anything about how the fund in Alaska was worked out? Did all the victims consent or did the Court just do it?

Thank you for your help. I also turned in the indictment package to my immediate supervisor today, so I expect some edits back from her before it goes higher up the chain. If you had any thoughts, please let me know.
