OPINION AND ORDER
OPINION AND ORDER
ALISON J. NATHAN, District Judge:
On August 10, 2020, the Defendant filed a letter motion related to two issues. Dkt. No.
38. First, the Defendant seeks an order directing the Government to disclose to defense counsel
immediately the identities of the three alleged victims referenced in the indictment. Second, the
Defendant seeks an order directing the Bureau of Prisons (“BOP”) to release the Defendant into
the general population and to provide her with increased access to the discovery materials. For
the reasons that follow, Defendant’s requests are DENIED without prejudice.

I. The Disclosure of Alleged Victims’ Identities
The Defendant first seeks an order directing the Government to disclose to defense
counsel immediately the identities of the three alleged victims referenced in the indictment. Dkt.
No. 38 at 1. Her request is premature. Production of discovery, which may itself identify
alleged victims and relevant witnesses to the defense, has just begun. Moreover, the parties have
not yet engaged in discussions regarding an appropriate schedule for pretrial disclosures,
including witness lists and § 3500 material. The Court is mindful of the factors pointed to by the
Defendant—in particular the fact that charges in this matter relate to conduct that allegedly took
place many years ago—and anticipates that such a schedule would require the disclosure of
counsel immediately the identities of the three alleged victims referenced in the indictment. Dkt.
