Summary
This document is page 7 of a defense letter to Judge Berman dated July 16, 2019. It addresses two specific points: 1) Refuting Mr. Boies' speculation that payments in late 2018 were to cooperating witnesses, clarifying instead that they were to employees/friends who invoked the Fifth Amendment; and 2) Dismissing the government's concern over an Austrian passport, noting it expired 32 years ago and was never used. The document emphasizes Epstein's religious background in the context of acquiring said passport.
