This document contains a chain of emails between Gary Bloxsome (representing Prince Andrew, the Duke of York) and an Assistant U.S. Attorney from the Southern District of New York (SDNY) in July 2020. The correspondence details tense negotiations regarding a request for Prince Andrew to sit for a voluntary interview concerning the Epstein investigation. Key points of contention include the confidentiality of the proceedings, allegations of media leaks by US officials (specifically Geoffrey Berman and Audrey Strauss), and the legal mechanisms of the interview (voluntary vs. compelled via MLAT). The SDNY proposes a two-week confidential negotiation period to resolve the impasse.
