Summary
This document is an email chain between Jeffrey Epstein's defense attorneys (Martin Weinberg and Marc Fernich) and the U.S. Attorney's Office (SDNY) shortly after Epstein's July 2019 arrest. The defense requests the return of items seized from Epstein's person upon arrest, specifically cash and his cellphone. The government agrees to return the cash and personal effects at an upcoming Thursday hearing but refuses to return the electronic devices, stating they have obtained a warrant to search them and will retain them as evidence. Weinberg also mentions providing a list of attorneys for a 'taint prosecutor,' implying a privilege review process.
