This document contains a chain of emails between the FBI (NY CART) and the US Attorney's Office (SDNY) regarding the processing of digital evidence seized from Jeffrey Epstein's properties in New York and the US Virgin Islands. The emails highlight significant technical and logistical friction, including delays caused by FBI network updates, disputes over file formats (Relativity vs. forensic raw data), and the US Attorney's urgent need for evidence to support 'additional charges.' The correspondence details specific hardware seized (Dell servers, Sony laptops, loose media) and references a prior 2007 search, while confirming that an initial screen for Child Pornography (CP) appears to have been negative. Note: The mention of 'flight records' on page 10 is a hypothetical example used by the US Attorney to illustrate a broken email attachment link, not a specific flight log contained in this file.
This document is a chain of emails between the US Attorney's Office (SDNY) and the FBI regarding the digital forensics processing of evidence seized from Jeffrey Epstein's properties in New York and the Virgin Islands. The correspondence highlights significant technical and logistical friction; the USANYS required data in a processed format compatible with the 'Relativity' review platform for legal discovery, while the FBI provided raw forensic dumps (phone extractions, hard drive clones) which were difficult to review. The text mentions terabytes of data, including 50+ devices, servers, and older evidence from a 2007 search, but contains no actual flight logs or passenger manifests (flight records are only mentioned hypothetically as an example of file-linking errors).
This document contains a chain of emails between the FBI's NY Computer Analysis Response Team (CART) and the US Attorney's Office (SDNY) regarding the processing of digital evidence seized from Jeffrey Epstein's properties in New York and the Virgin Islands. The correspondence, spanning February to July 2020, details technical challenges including incompatible file formats, encryption (specifically APFS on Mac devices), and delays caused by FBI network upgrades and COVID-19 staffing reductions. The prosecutors express frustration with the pace and format of data production, eventually proposing to hire an outside vendor (BRG) to complete the work.
This document is an email chain from February to May 2020 between the US Attorney's Office (SDNY) and a forensic/technical team regarding the processing of digital evidence seized from Jeffrey Epstein's properties in New York and the US Virgin Islands. The correspondence highlights significant technical difficulties, including the inability to link emails to attachments (using 'flight records' as an example), mismatched load files, and a 'disaster' in tracking over 1 million documents. The technical team notes delays due to COVID-19 work reductions and a major network replacement that required the deletion of 400 TB of old data.
