Summary

This document contains an email chain between the US Attorney's Office (USANYS) and Jeffrey Epstein's defense team (Martin G. Weinberg) shortly after Epstein's death in August 2019. Weinberg requests a 'taint team' protocol for computers seized from Epstein's Virgin Islands residence to protect attorney-client privilege, similar to protocols used for previous seizures in NYC. He also inquires about the timing of the dismissal of charges (nolle prosequi) and indicates the defense team wishes to speak with investigators regarding Epstein's death. Additionally, the emails note that Epstein's brother, Mark Epstein, is represented by Stacey Richman.

FYI, among several other recent requests and communications, Epstein’s defense counsel says below that they would “welcome a call” with whoever is conducting the investigation into his death and have asked us to provide you with their contact information. Obviously leave it entirely to you whether you believe it would be appropriate or useful for your investigation to be in touch with them in any capacity.
Separately, they have asked us to advise the individuals working on the investigation into Epstein’s death that his brother, Mark Epstein, is represented by Stacey Richman, from the Law Offices of Murray Richman. Should you find it appropriate or useful for the investigation to be in touch with her (or him through her), it appears that the number of her and her father’s firm is [Redacted].

Subject: US v Epstein
[Redacted], in light of yesterday's seizures of computers in the Virgin Islands from Mr Epstein's residence or residences, and in light of the fact that emails and documents contained on some or all of these computers contain attorney-client and work product privileged communications, I request that you provide us assurance that they will not be accessed by the "case team" until a taint team is selected and until the procedures for a protection of those privileged communications is established. You have agreed to that protocol for the phones seized from Mr. Epstein on July 6 and the computers etc seized from his NYC residence shortly thereafter. I have a list of attorneys that I am prepared to send to a taint prosecutor once one is identified to me.
Second, there remains the timing of the dismissal of the charge against Mr. Epstein. Are you awaiting a motion to dismiss from us? Will the Indictment be nolle prossed today? Is there a reason for any delay beyond today?
Third, we would welcome a call with you or whoever is conducting the investigation into Mr. Epstein's death. Let us know.
