Summary
This document is an email chain from December 20, 2019, between attorney Andrew Patel and government prosecutors regarding the disclosure of information about a client of Patel's in the Epstein case context (likely related to the prison guards' prosecution). Patel argues against full disclosure, citing client safety concerns, and claims his client is not a witness but rather made an error in a statement that is 'contradicted by the surveillance video evidence.' The government proposes disclosing the client's identity to defense counsel only on an 'Attorneys' Eyes Only' (AEO) basis.
