Summary

This document contains a chain of emails from August 2020 between the U.S. Attorney's Office (SDNY) and the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) regarding the logistics of delivering legal discovery materials to inmate Ghislaine Maxwell. The emails discuss protocols for hard drive delivery, including password protection, authorization memos, and the use of FedEx. There is also a strategic discussion about cumulative loading of discovery onto single disks to prevent the inmate from accumulating too many hard drives in her cell.

That is okay with me! I agree it is better.
I will make sure to do that moving forward. So far it has been easy to upload/not too large.

Can I make a small suggestion on this? Unless and until it gets super inconvenient to do this in terms of upload time, I'd suggest putting *all* the current discovery on whatever disk we send to the prison, like USAO_GM_000001 through whatever is the latest production, and then having the facility send back whatever is the last disc we sent after the new one arrives.
That way at any time there are only two disks out in the world with her discovery on them (the one she has at any given time, and the one that's on its way to replace it), and only one in her possession at all times. Otherwise in two months she's going to have a half dozen hard drives sitting in the MDC, with all different stuff on each one. But per usual anybody should weigh in if anyone disagrees!

I just sent the next round of discovery via FedEx. The password for this drive is [REDACTED] We also sent a letter with the password in a separate envelope.
Please let us know when it arrives.

Good evening [REDACTED]
Just confirming - did you use FedEx, USPS, or some other carrier to send the discovery here? I have not received it yet, but it could just be that staff did not notify me a package arrived. Depending on the carrier, it could be in the warehouse or mailroom, so I just want to verify so I can find it expeditiously.
Thanks!

That's extremely helpful, thanks so much. We'll plan to put the drive in the mail tomorrow, and of course please let us know if any issues arise.
thanks again,

Hard drives should be mailed to the facility to the attention of the legal department. We need to etch the drive with a number and provide an authorization memo so she can retain it. Then it will be provided to her. It can be password protected so long as you include a cover letter that contains the password for her.
Hope this helps,

We have a hard drive with loaded discovery that we need to deliver to Ghislaine Maxwell, [REDACTED] at MDC. Could you please let us know what the current protocol is for that? Also, it's our understanding that hard drives with discovery materials for inmates needs to be non-encrypted (and not have a password for access), is that also correct?
We're hoping to get these materials to her tomorrow if at all possible, so we greatly appreciate your help. And I'm reachable any time at [REDACTED] if it would be helpful to discuss.
thanks,
