Maxwell - [conferral re photo and other discovery deficiencies] Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2021 01:01:29 +0000 )11 Laura, I have asked the FBI to pull the drives that were made available to you at 500 Pearl in the spring to double check the number of files that were made available to you. I have also asked the FBI to doublecheck the number of images and videos on the drive in Colorado. The FBI made the HC images from the CDs available for Chris Everdell to review with Ms. Maxwell at the MDC in the fall of 2020. Specifically FBI agents brought the drive to the MDC on October 23, 2020 and November 6, 2020. Best, From: Laura Menninger Sent: Monday, August 30, 2021 8:31 PM To: ; Jeff Pagliuca (USANYS) [Contractor] (USANYS) •< > on rac or Subject: RE: US v. Maxwell - [conferral re photo and other discovery deficiencies] Thank you for your response, however, I'm afraid it has only created more confusion. You made available approximately 5,500 HC images for review at 500 Pearl Street in April, divided between two hard drives. I looked at the two hard-drives and that is the approximate number of files that were located on them. The 302, on the other hand, indicates there are actually 33,747 HC images and 895 HC videos The difference is approximately 35,000 images and videos. Your sentence ("the correct number of images (.., the number indicated in the 302) was contained on the hard drives made available to you for your review at 500 Pearl in the spring") is inaccurate, given that the number indicated in the 302 is not at all close to the number of images made available for review at 500 Pearl. Your other sentence ("The first and second categories were both made available for your client and defense counsel to review at 500 Pearl Street in the spring.") also does not track with my understanding of the correct numbers, E., those outlined in the 302. Also, I do not believe that any HC materials have ever been made available at the MDC. My understanding is that you are only now making available for review approximately 35,000 images and videos that have not previously been made available. Is that true or not true? EFTA00075636
I will take a look at the files on Wednesday. You can imagine, however, my concern that more than a year after this case was instituted and two months before trial that the majority of photographic materials still has not been made available for review, especially with my client. I am happy to discuss if you feel that an oral explanation would be easier, preferably in advance of my Wednesday review. I really believe this is something that counsel should be able to work out without court intervention. Thanks, Laura Laura A. Menninger I Partner Haddon, Morgan & Foreman, P.C. 1111001 From: Sent: Monday, August 30, 2021 5:42 PM To: Laura Menninger (USANYS) Cc: < >; 1 Pagliuca [Contractor] ); S (USANYS) [Contractor] Subject: RE: US v. Maxwell - [conferral re photo and other discovery deficiencies] Laura, ;Jeff (USANYS) With respect to your questions about the HC materials, as I noted in my earlier email, we do not know how the miscommunication about the number of images happened. Somehow that number was relayed incorrectly to me from the FBI during my verbal conversations with them. I have confirmed, however, that the correct number of images was saved on the hard drives that were made available to you for review during your trip to New York. In other words, although I was told (and relayed to you) that there was a much smaller number of HC images, the correct number of images (.., the number indicated in the 302) was contained on the hard drives made available to you for your review at 500 Pearl in the spring. The HC images come from two sources: First, there were HC images recovered from the CDs seized from Epstein's New York residence. Second, there were HC images and videos recovered from the electronic devices seized from Epstein during his arrest, the search of his New York residence, and the search of his Virgin Islands residence. The first category of HC images was made available for your client and defense counsel to review at the MDC int eh fall. The first and second categories were both made available for your client and defense counsel to review at 500 Pearl Street in the spring. My understanding from the FBI is that the drive that was sent to Colorado provides the HC images in html files, similar to those contained in the recent production of confidential images dated August 5, 2021. You can refer to the images by the title of the html file in which they are saved and the row number in which they appear within that html file. These files are not Bates stamped because we are not permitted to save them on the U.S. Attorney's Office's system, so our paralegals cannot stamp them. Our team is continuing to assess what, if any, HC images we may seek to offer at trial. As soon as the team has made a final decision on that score, we will let you know. Given the many moving pieces with trial preparation, however, I cannot provide a more definite timeline at this point. EFTA00075637
