This is a legal representation letter from attorney Stuart N. Kaplan to federal prosecutors, dated September 27, 2021, notifying them that he has been retained by a retired FBI Special Agent who has been subpoenaed to testify in the Ghislaine Maxwell criminal trial.
The email announces formal legal representation of a retired FBI agent who was involved in the original Jeffrey Epstein investigation and has now been subpoenaed in the Maxwell case. The agent is concerned about preparing testimony without access to her original interview notes (IA notes) that preceded the formal FBI report (FD-302). Additionally, the agent was interviewed under oath by the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) about her recollection of the Epstein investigation just before retiring. The attorney requests all future contact with his client be coordinated through his office.

From: Stuart Kaplan 5 To: Cc: "- Subject: [EXTERNAL] Date: Mon, 27 Sep 2021 16:18:29 +0000 Inline-Images: image003.png USANYS)" (NY) (FBI)" Ms. As I understand now your office has been advised that I have been formerly retained by Retired FBI Special Agent in connection with her being subpoenaed to testify in United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell case pending in the SDNY. Ms. has conveyed some concerns about her inability to properly prepare for her testimony whether for the prosecution or defense given that she has not been given a copy of the IA notes that were originally prepared in preparation to the FD-302 written that she may be called to testify about. ( I will be able to elaborate via tel/cal with you). Additionally, my client was interviewed by Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) just prior to her retirement. This interview was given under oath and in connection with her recollection of events of the Jeffrey Espstein investigation. (I can of course elaborate further via tel/cal with you.) Please feel free to reach out to me at your earliest convenience to discuss further. In the interim, moving forward all direct or indirect contact with Ms. should be coordinated through my office.
