This is an email thread from July 2019 between lawyers coordinating a phone call to discuss Jeffrey Epstein's case, sent just days after his arrest in New York.
This document captures internal coordination between defense attorneys in the immediate aftermath of Epstein's July 6, 2019 arrest on federal sex trafficking charges. The emails show Joe Nascimento from the Miami-based criminal defense firm ROSS AMSEL RABEN NASCIMENTO attempting to schedule a call with other legal team members on July 9, 2019. The rushed nature of the scheduling ('quite the weekend,' 'busy weekend,' 'the earlier the better') reflects the scramble to coordinate legal strategy during the critical first days after Epstein's indictment. This is administrative correspondence rather than substantive legal discussion, but it documents the behind-the-scenes mobilization of Epstein's defense team.
