Email exchange between federal prosecutors and defense attorney Joe Nascimento regarding scheduling a proffer meeting for a client in the Jeffrey Epstein case in July 2019.
This is a July 9-10, 2019 email thread between Assistant U.S. Attorneys from the Southern District of New York and defense attorney Joseph E. Nascimento of a Miami criminal law firm. The emails coordinate scheduling for a proffer meeting (where a defendant provides information to prosecutors, typically in hopes of cooperation credit). The prosecutors send a standard proffer agreement template and the parties settle on meeting Friday afternoon around 1-1:30 PM. The timing is significant—this correspondence occurred just days after Epstein's July 6, 2019 arrest on federal sex trafficking charges in New York.
