Summary

This document is an email chain from August 23-24, 2019, between the US Attorney's Office (SDNY) and attorney Sigrid McCawley regarding travel arrangements for a witness/victim traveling from Australia to New York (likely for the Epstein victim hearing). The government explains they must book travel to pay for it, but McCawley had already booked the inbound flight and hotel due to safety concerns. The correspondence discusses the government covering the return flight, which is estimated at over $10,000 because the witness requested business class due to a medical condition.

Thank you so much [Redacted] for getting back to me, my amazing lawyer Sigrid was able to get me there- due to the short notice & long flight I was afraid I was going to miss the hearing, so she got me there...
impressive!! Thank you so much Sigrid!!
On the return [Redacted]- that would be great if you could help out with the cost. I can give you my details if needed. Also due to an ongoing medical condition, I would need to fly business. It does help me with not being stuck in a position for 24+ hours. Thank you so very much!!
All the best,

Not a problem we can do the return. Do you want me to put her in a hotel in New York?

Thank you so much. We have not booked a return flight for her so we may need assistance with that arrangement but I will confer with her and get back to you. Thank you very much.

Thank you [Redacted]. We already booked the ticket for [Redacted] and made arrangements for a hotel. She has some safety concerns so we are taking care of the arrangements. We understand that means the government cannot reimburse. Thank you for following up.
Best,
Sigrid

Please give me a call or you can give me the nearest airport when you want to leave Australia and your name exactly as it is on your passport and DOB.
I will arrange transportation, hotel and car service from airport.
