Internal email chain between federal prosecutors from the Southern District of New York (SDNY) and Miami defense attorney Joe Nascimento, scheduling a meeting in the days immediately following Jeffrey Epstein's July 6, 2019 arrest.
This document captures urgent communications from July 6-8, 2019, between SDNY prosecutors and Joe Nascimento, a criminal defense attorney representing an unnamed individual who had been served with a grand jury subpoena on the day of Epstein's arrest. Nascimento contacted prosecutors after his former partner Alan Ross, who had previously represented this individual, passed away in 2018. The emails reveal coordination to brief 'Florida approach agents' before they flew out, suggesting active FBI field operations in Florida connected to the newly-filed federal case.
