Ambiguous surname - includes Fernando Henrique Cardoso (former Brazilian President) and Karina Cardoso (JP Morgan) in Epstein documents

Karina Cardoso appears in emails coordinating medical appointments for Jeffrey Epstein at Mount Sinai Hospital in December 2016, where she worked in an administrative role in the Department of Surgery. A separate mention references Fernando Henrique Cardoso, the former Brazilian president, in an unrelated economic document.

The vast majority of mentions (87 out of 88) involve Karina Cardoso, a Mount Sinai Hospital administrator who appears in email chains scheduling MRI appointments and medical procedures for Epstein in December 2016. She's consistently CC'd alongside other medical staff including Drs. Jess and Windsor Ting, David Gonzalez, Ashley John, and Alicia Gonzales, along with Epstein's assistant Lesley Groff. One outlier mention references Fernando Henrique Cardoso, Brazil's president from 1995-2003, in a document discussing Brazilian economic policy and inflation—this appears completely unrelated to the medical scheduling emails.
