Summary

A letter from the U.S. Attorney's Office (SDNY) to Ghislaine Maxwell's defense team regarding 16 evidence discs labeled as 'Epstein Encase Files.' The government identified these discs as containing a forensic image of a computer seized from Epstein's Palm Beach residence in 2005. However, the government concluded that the original warrant authorized seizure but not the search of the computer's contents, and thus they lack the lawful authority to review the files or allow the defense to access them.
