This e-mail was supposed to have gone out yesterday while I was in trial. I have no objection to the two-week extension with respect to NES, New York Strategy Group, and Epstein Virgin Islands Foundation. With respect to the subpoena to the investigator, I would like to get the computer equipment as soon as possible. If you prefer to simply turn over the equipment without anyone appearing before the grand jury that is fine. If we proceed that way, we can defer litigating the issue of the applicability of the attorney-client and/or work product privilege to information related to how and why the equipment was removed. I will be in trial this week, so please contact Jason Richards at the FBI directly at 561 833-7517. I look forward to your July 11th submission. If you would like to discuss the possibility of a federal resolution of Mr. Epstein's case that could run concurrently with any state resolution, please leave a message on my voicemail at the office (561 209-1047) and I will get back to you after trial has ended for the day. Thank you. Assistant U.S. Attorney 51 EFTA00227099
