I am not aware that OPR has started any process regarding a search of e-mails of the previous U.S. Attorneys in Miami. OPR received an allegation of misconduct, and they asked for e-mails pertaining to the Epstein case, presumably so they could determine whether to open a full investigation. Since OPR was seeking preliminary information, they asked me to obtain certain e-mails regarding certain topics.¶

Ann : Please note that per , EOUSA Preservation Officer, EOUSA will be the one doing the search for the emails. This is done by the EOUSA’s Information Systems Security Staff. OPR should contact them directly with the desired search strings. Do you know if your OPR POC has started the process ?¶

Definitely it goes through staff. Anytime OPR is involved in the reviewing something, it goes to staff first. I sent him an email and am waiting on a response—I will verify this, but I’m 98% certain.¶
It shouldn’t have had to be at your request—OPR should have known to contact . I’ll let you know as soon as I know.¶
Thanks for all of your help!¶

I don’t believe group has been involved on this. At least not per our request.¶
Yes, Sloman and Acosta were USAs during the 2005-present period.¶
Another question, if OPR needs to review current AUSAs mailboxes is the search also done by group or do we put the emails on a PST for them to review.¶
If and departed prior to USAMail implementation in FLS, we won’t have theirs. I can talk to our tech folks to see if it’s even worth doing additional searching, but I believe the answer is that it’s simply not available because of the way our systems were set up prior to USAMail.¶
Acosta and Sloman were USAs during the 2005-present applicable period, right? I think that for the OPR question I need to double check with . I believe what happens is that TechOne provides access to their account data to someone on staff and they run the relevant searches and provide the search results.¶
Do you know whether anyone from staff is aware of the OPR interest in this hold?¶
Thanks,¶

Need help again 😊. Lit Hold 2010-FLS-0004¶
I don’t have Attachment 1 or 5 for Alex Acosta, Sloman, or all no longer with us. Acosta and Sloman served as USA and their email should be at TechOne. How do we go about finding out if archived email for and exist in our system.¶
How about getting and emails for review, I understand OPR is asking.¶
