The Defense seeks to file under seal to protect 'cooperating witnesses' and statements, while the Government argues that statements to law enforcement are not 'sensitive' under the protective order.

This document is an email chain from July 14, 2020, between the FBI and the US Attorney's Office (USANYS).

This document contains an email chain between the US Attorney's Offices for the Southern (USANYS) and Eastern (USANYE) Districts of New York regarding inmate Johnny (Jhonny) Contreras. Contreras's attorney, Andrew Patel, informed the government that Contreras was housed across the hall from Jeffrey Epstein in the MCC SHU at the time of Epstein's death and was willing to speak to investigators about his observations, though he did not witness the hanging itself. USANYS agents interviewed Contreras on September 3, 2019, and noted that an FBI form 302 report would be generated.
This document is an email chain from August 10, 2019, the day of Jeffrey Epstein's death, between government officials (likely SDNY prosecutors) and Epstein's defense team (Miller, Weinberg, Weingarten). The emails verify that a call from a BOP/MCC employee to Epstein's associates regarding the recovery of his body was legitimate and not a hoax, clarifying that the BOP contacted the next-of-kin (Epstein's brother) to prepare for transport once the body was ready. The government also confirms that an FBI investigation into the death has been initiated and is expected to be 'extremely rigorous,' while providing the FBI tip line for any relevant information.
This document is an email chain between attorney Aida Leisenring and the US Attorney's Office (USANYS) regarding the preservation of video surveillance from the MCC.

In December 2019, Leisenring expressed surprise that the video was not retained despite her earlier request and confirmation from officials.
This document is an email dated February 21, 2020, from an Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) in the Southern District of New York to supervisors ('Chiefs').
