Summary
This document contains two emails (May and August 2016) sent to Melanie Spinella, intended for Leon Black (addressed as 'Leon'). The writer (implied to be Jeffrey Epstein) demands a $10 million upfront payment to continue working until January 15th. The text heavily criticizes a CEO named 'Brad' for financial incompetence, discusses estate planning and tax returns, and uses a metaphor comparing the writer's financial services to a 'work of art' that is being ruined by Leon's staff.
