Subject: RE: Epstein Guards/ OIG Report
Hi [REDACTED],
Per our conversation just now, attached is a draft of the letter we intend to submit shortly. As you’ll see in the first bullet point, we reference the DOJ-OIG review. We do not plan to make mention of a report, although if asked at a court conference whether there will be a report, we plan to say that we don’t know, and that OIG’s normal process is to prepare a report but we don’t know whether it will be made public or not.
Please let us know if you have any objections to the language in the letter. Thanks again for the speedy response, we very much appreciate it.

Subject: Epstein Guards/ OIG Report
Hi [REDACTED],
We were hoping you could assist us with getting in touch with the OIG lawyer who is responsible for preparing the report on Epstein’s suicide. We have been trying to get in touch with [REDACTED], who was previously handling the investigation, but understand he may have left the office. The time sensitivity is that we plan to file a public letter by close of business today regarding reaching a deferred prosecution agreement with the two guards on duty that night who have been charged with falsifying records. The guards have agreed to sit for an interview with our office and DOJ-OIG, and we’d like to state in the letter that the interviews would occur as part of an ongoing OIG investigation that we expect would lead to a public report. However, we don’t want to make this representation unless DOJ-OIG is comfortable with it.
I’m happy to discuss by phone if convenient.
Thanks very much,
[REDACTED]
