 Question regarding use of Grand Jury 
Hi

the exp
..Here 
is my situation: 
1 have been involved in' long-term investigation of I 
ild exploitation case. Throughout the investigation, I 
have prese ed evidence and testimony to Grand Jury I 
Some of that evidence and testimony related to six 
victims (of I total of 19 victims), including the live testimony of one of those victims. I also began presenting 
evidence related to what I called '"draft proposed indictment." For various reasons, the indictment has been 
r
delayed about 9 months. And, r other strategic reasons, we have decided to drop the six victims referenced 
above, and replaced them with different six victims. 
The question is now raised as to whether I should continue presenting to Grand Jury', with' 404(b)-type 
instruction related to the evidence of the six dropped victims and some sort of instruction regarding the initial 
i
"draft proposed indictment", or whether I should present 
Grand Jury B, excluding any testimony regarding 
those six victims. One other consideration — Grand Jury 
is due to expire in August, and I anticipate that the 
investigation will continue for quite some time after indi 
ant. It is possible that the 6 dropped victims will be 
re-added in 'superseding indictment.

uestion regarding use of Grand Jury 
Marie: 
I see no need to change grand juries. Indeed, changing grand juries might suggest that something untoward 
occurred. which is not the case. 
Nor do I see 'requirement to give' 404(6) 'Ape instruction. Let's not forget thil the role of the grand is to 
investigate, and it is wholly aprpriate that 'grand jury in good faith pursued I line of investigation that does 
not lead to indictment. That is very different matter from presenting information pursuant to 404(b), to prove 
motive, lack of accident, etc. 
I share your instinct that just dropping six victims, and the draft proposed indictment, might call for some 
explanation, or at least acknowledgement. to the grand jury. It's always dicey, and not really desirable, to 
explain and share legal strategies with the grand jury. Perhaps you can simply tell them that the old draft 
proposed indictment is being withdrawn, and 
iffe
lil
rent set of facts is being pursued, and ask them if they can 
set aside what they heard previously, and base determination of probable cause solely on the new evidence. If 
any of them indicatt inability to do so. perhags they should lif excused from consideration of this case; if that 
leaves you without I quorum, then you have I basis to go to I new grand jury. 
I hope this helps: I'm available by phone as well.

Epstein 
Hi all —I wanted to raise an issue with you regarding the presentation of the Epstein indictment. 1 have been 
Il
e West Palm Beach Tuesday grand jury in the past. which has included presentation of testimony from 
and agent testimony regarding girls who will no longer be referenced in the indictment. 
I have conferred %ith 
and 
Heck 
regarding whether to stay with the same grand 
jury or present to Id), 
gran jury. They agree that I should present to the same grand jury with some sort 
of instruction regarding not relying on evidence/testimony regarding those girls. 
That is my intention. I would like to present on March I l a'. Epstein will be in town on March 10'h foliate 
court hearing and hopefully we will be able to keep track of his whereabou until the following day. 
is 
p 
reviewing the package now, so it should be in Miami by Monday, March 3" 
Also. I invited Myesha to be present for the grand jury proceedings, but she is waitin 
a.
 about her level of involvement in the case. She is available on that date, so, if 
decide 
this, she will be able to attend.

Hi Myesha — I won't even tell you about how today is starting off badly on this case (politics, of course, not 
facts). But, in any event, the word is that CEOS is going to undertake an "independent review" of the case and 
I 
meet with Epstein's attorneys some time next week. My supervisor is finishing t 
review of the indictment 
package and I know she caught some typos. Wls.i I finish those revisions, I will mail to you the entire 
indictment package, and you can find out what = 
wants to look at. I have one real concern, however. As 
you know, there are several girls that are still unknown to the defense. I want to avoid trait possibility that those 
names might be disclosed. Should 1 redact the names of all of the girls from the pros memos that I send to you? 
Thank you. Myesha.

Jay, 
The Section Chief of DOJ's Child Exploitation Obscenity Section (CEOS) notified me today that 
he will review the matter involving your client Jeffrey Epstein. The Section Chief has indicated 
that he is ready to proceed immediately, and I understand you are in the process of providing 
him this week with' summary of issues to be reviewed, and expect to meet with him next 
week. 
The Section Chief also indicated that you would be calling this Office regarding the upcoming 
March 3, 2008 court date in the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, in and for Palm Beach County. As you 
know, the Agreement entered into by your client originally provided that the United States 
1522 
08-80736-CV-MARRA

EFTA00223774

Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida (this Office) would defer prosecution if 
your client pled guilty to enumerated state charges by October 26, 2007. Since then, that date 
has been postponed for' number of reasons. At this juncture, it would not be reasonable to 
keep the current March 3ldate as I deadline for compliance with the Agreement. That said, 
this Office is very concerned about additional delays. Despite this concern, I want to assure 
you that if counsel for Mr. Epstein meets with CEOS next week (the week of March 3$, this 
Office will extend the time for compliance with the Agreement to provide CEOS time to 
engage in' thorough review. 
It goes without saying that in the event that CEOS decides that' federal prosecution should 
not be undertaken against Mr. Epstein, this Office will close its investigation. However, should 
CEOS disagree with Mr. Epstein's position, Mr. Epstein shall have one week to abide by the 
terms and conditions of the September 24, 2007 Agreement as amended by letter from United 
States Attorney Acosta to Jay Lefkowitz.

Hi David - I was just perusing the U.S. Attorney's Manual looking for an answer 
on another case and I noticed that Section 9-75.030 (regarding Coordination of 
Child Sex Abuse cases) says that cases involving violations of 18 USC 1591 
(related to child sex trafficking) are supposed to be coordinated with CEOS and 
the Civil Rights Division. 
According to Section 8-3.120, prior to presentation to the grand jury, the U.S. 
Attorney is supposed to advise the Civil Rights Division in writing of the 
following: 
Identity of the targets of the investigation; 
The factual allegations to be investigated; 
The statutes which may have been violated; 
The United States Attorney's assessment of the significance of the case and

Timing is everything. Right now I am at the NAC attending the Criminal Civil 
Rights Seminar. 
Your letter seems to cover everything, but I want to chat with Bob about it 
before we send it out. It should probably be addressed to Stephan Curran, who is 
the Deputy assigned to cover our District. 
Bob and I can talk Monday when I get back and w can send out the letter. 
Since Drew's shop is involved and has been for 
while, they will hopefully agree 
with our/your conclusion.

Hi David - I was just perusing the U.S. Attorney's Manual looking for an answer 
on another case and I noticed that Section 9-75.030 (regarding Coordination of 
Child Sex Abuse cases) says that cases involving violations of 18 USC 1591 
(related to child sex trafficking) are supposed to be coordinated with CEOS and 
the Civil Rights Division. 
According to Section 8-3.120, prior to presentation to the grand jury, the U.S. 
Attorney is supposed to advise the Civil Rights Division in writing of the 
following: 
1568 
08-80736-CV-MARRA

The factual allegations to be investigated;

w ther the case is one of "national interest," and 
( 
The U.S. Attorney's proposed staffing of the matter (including whether I 
C vil Rights Division attorney should be assigned to work directly on the 
matter). 
Here is my proposal for such "written notification:
