HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023359.jpg
This document contains a series of emails from late 2015 and mid-2016, likely written by Jeffrey Epstein to his financial and legal team (Brad Wechsler, Melanie Spinella). The content focuses on high-level financial maneuvering involving 'Leon' (likely Leon Black), including restructuring Phaidon/Art Space to harvest nearly $100 million in tax losses, managing aircraft loans where Leon is a guarantor, and setting up new trusts. It also includes construction updates for Little St. James (LSJ) and Great St. James (GSJ), and a directive to fire multiple associates while retaining 'Heather'.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023354.jpg
This document contains a series of notes and emails discussing the disorganized state of financial, legal, and asset management for an entity or individual, likely Jeffrey Epstein. It details a chaotic review of investments, taxes, and expenses, criticizes current legal strategies and invoicing, and recounts a history of poor oversight by previous staff members. The text lists numerous law firms, accounting tasks, and specific assets like planes, boats, and art requiring attention.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023352.jpg
This document contains a series of emails from 2014 and 2015 outlining high-level financial, legal, and operational tasks for Jeffrey Epstein's network. Key topics include funding a $100m art partnership involving 'Leon' (likely Leon Black), managing accounting with Apollo and Phaidon, handling tax compliance (FBAR, FATCA), and managing assets like planes and boats. The emails also reference 'fire drill books' for injury or death scenarios and discuss significant bills and staffing issues.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023351.jpg
This document contains an email chain from May 1, 2015. The bottom email involves Jeffrey Epstein and Brad Wechsler being advised on the legal structure of a 'Picasso agreement' with Gagosian, specifically regarding liability if the purchase agreement is assigned to family trusts ('APO1', 'APO2') or 'the Black kids' (referring to Leon Black's family). The top section contains a text (likely drafted by Epstein to Leon Black) negotiating compensation; Epstein compares himself to 'Josh and Mark' (likely Apollo executives), mentions their actions generating $100 million, and proposes a 33% fee for himself, emphasizing a desire for a 'partnership structure'.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023341.jpg
This document contains two emails forwarded to Melanie Spinella in 2016, likely written by Jeffrey Epstein to Leon Black. The emails detail extensive family office restructuring, including the firing of staff (Ada, Eva, Joslin Castrucci), criticism of Brad Wechsler's management, and tax planning strategies involving trusts and foreign funds. The sender specifically mentions that 'Donald' (likely Trump, post-election) might render a foreign funds repatriation plan obsolete.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023339.jpg
A contentious letter from Jeffrey Epstein (implied) to Leon Black regarding unpaid financial advisory fees. Epstein claims his intervention saved Black $600 million in taxes and corrected errors made by Black's staff (Eileen Andersson and Brad Wechsler). He expresses disappointment that Black is offering only $20 million instead of the agreed-upon $50-60 million range, invoking their close friendship and previous agreements.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023336.jpg
This document is a printout of an email chain from late 2015, likely written by Jeffrey Epstein (based on style and context of the House Oversight investigation into Apollo/Leon Black) to Melanie Spinella and Brad Wechsler. The sender details extensive financial forensic work they have performed, claiming to have found millions in dormant accounts and 'Eileen's drawer,' while criticizing the incompetence of the recipient's current team (specifically Brad Wechsler, Halperin, and Bronstein). The sender provides a 25-point list of urgent decisions regarding art, trusts, aircraft, and estate planning (mentioning Alex, Victoria, and Debra), and issues an ultimatum to either grant full control to the sender's team or leave the 'huge mess' to the current staff.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023334.jpg
This document contains an email thread from March 2017 where Jeffrey Epstein requests various legal and financial documents, including art loan docs, agreements (BRH, TRA), and organizational charts for Phaidon, Art Space, and Regan Arts from Barry J. Cohen. Included in the thread is a highly critical email from December 2015 (likely forwarded) that lambasts Brad Wechsler for incompetence, financial mismanagement, and failure to execute priorities regarding IT and airplane restructuring. The 2015 email highlights significant financial disarray, including a $9.8 million investment in Regan Arts with no profit and loss statement and unusable tax deductions for Art Space.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023331.jpg
This document is an email dated November 29, 2016, likely from Jeffrey Epstein to an assistant of Leslie Wexner (Melanie Spinella). In the email, the sender aggressively demands compensation for financial services, stipulating a fee of $40 million per year or $10 million for short-term work, while criticizing the recipient's current financial management and staff. The email also recounts a 1993 anecdote involving Donald Trump and a plane crash in Aspen as a metaphor for the recipient's chaotic office management.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023330.jpg
An email from November 15, 2016, likely from Jeffrey Epstein to Leon Black (addressed as 'Leon'), forwarded to Melanie Spinella. The sender aggressively criticizes the management of Leon's family office, specifically disparaging employees Brad Wechsler and John Castrucci, while demanding payment for past and future work. The email outlines a restructuring plan involving tax strategies (CLATs, GRATs), the sale of assets (Artspace, boat, Miami property), and the shutdown of Regan Arts, while referencing the impact of 'Donald' (Trump) on foreign funds repatriation.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023323.jpg
This document contains a fragmented email chain involving Jeffrey Epstein. The primary content is a 2016 email where Epstein aggressively demands $40 million annually from 'Leon' (likely Leon Black) for estate planning and tax services, while heavily criticizing Leon's staff, specifically Brad Wechsler. A separate 2018 email thread discusses travel logistics and confirms Epstein's presence in Paris.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023322.jpg
An email dated November 15, 2016, from 'Larry' (likely Jeffrey Epstein) to Leon (likely Leon Black), forwarded to Melanie Spinella. The sender harshly criticizes Leon's management of his family office, specifically disparaging employees Brad Wechsler, John Castrucci, and Joslin. The email outlines a massive 'clean up' operation involving estate planning, selling assets (Artspace, Regan Arts, boats), and restructuring trusts, while referencing Donald Trump's impact on foreign funds repatriation.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023319.jpg
This document contains a series of email fragments, primarily from Jeffrey Epstein (using the alias jeevacation@gmail.com) to Melanie Spinella, likely as a conduit for 'Leon' (presumably Leon Black). The emails detail significant friction regarding financial management, payment disputes, and staffing decisions involving Brad Wechsler and others. Epstein warns against giving the law firm Paul Weiss access to the 'entire story' and defends the financial structures he set up for Leon's protection.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023318.jpg
This document contains an email chain from May 2016 involving Jeffrey Epstein (using the email jeevacation@gmail.com), Leon Black (addressed as Leon), and staff members Brad Wechsler and Melanie Spinella. The primary content is a lengthy, metaphorical email from Epstein to Black, comparing his financial structuring work to a 'work of art' that Black's incompetent staff (specifically Brad, Joslin, and John) are ruining. Epstein discusses managing an IRS audit, complains about the lack of IT and professional standards in Black's office, and negotiates a fee of $35 million (discounted from $40 million) to continue overseeing the financial entities and audits with the goal of concluding their financial interactions.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023311.jpg
A highly contentious email sent to Jeffrey Epstein (jeevacation@gmail.com) on January 6, 2016. The sender (likely a high-level financial advisor or associate like Leon Black, though 'Leon' is addressed in the text, creating ambiguity) complains bitterly about a fee dispute, claiming to have saved Epstein over $600 million in taxes while only being offered $20 million in compensation. The document details complex financial maneuvers involving entities like Phaidon, BRH, and Athene, and harshly criticizes Epstein's staff, specifically Eileen Alexandersson and Brad Wechsler, for incompetence.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023310.jpg
An email dated January 6, 2016, from an unnamed close associate (likely a high-level financial advisor) to Jeffrey Epstein. The sender expresses frustration that Epstein has reneged on a compensation agreement regarding a tax strategy that saved Epstein $600 million. The email details the incompetence of Epstein's previous financial managers (Eileen Alexandersson and Brad Wechsler), lists specific tax errors the sender rectified, and attempts to negotiate a settlement fee in the $50-60 million range.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023307.jpg
This document contains a series of emails from Jeffrey Epstein (alias 'jeevacation') detailing high-level financial interventions and tax strategies. It includes a draft letter, likely intended for Leon Black, in which Epstein claims to have saved $600 million in taxes while heavily criticizing the incompetence of staff members Brad Wechsler and Eileen Alexandersson. The documents also track large payments to 'Gratitude America' and the FTC, along with the discovery of millions of dollars in overlooked assets and deductions.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023298.jpg
This document contains a series of emails, likely between Jeffrey Epstein and associates of Leon Black (given the references to Apollo, Phaidon, and family office management). The sender provides harsh criticism of the recipient's family office management, stating it 'needs a daddy,' and suggests installing Larry Delson to take charge under the sender's supervision. The document outlines specific tasks for review including accounting, trusts (TRA, BRH), tax filings (FBAR, FATCA), and 'children meetings,' while also mentioning a financial agreement that ended months prior and an unfunded art partnership.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023296.jpg
This document contains a series of emails from late 2015, seemingly written by Jeffrey Epstein (implied by context and associates), directing his staff and advisors on complex financial, legal, and estate matters. The emails detail a 25-point restructuring plan involving art collections (Gagosian, Phaidon), aviation assets, trusts, and 'foreign Apollo' interests, while frequently mentioning 'Leon' (likely Leon Black). The sender expresses significant frustration with advisors Brad Wechsler and Joslin regarding their understanding of a '180 million dollar number' and the quality of their financial presentations.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023294.jpg
This document contains a series of emails from November 2015, likely written by Jeffrey Epstein to Melanie Spinella and other associates of Leon Black/Apollo Global Management. The emails discuss complex financial restructuring involving Phaidon, Art Space, and various trusts, as well as the payoff of a 'Leon note' accumulating $50k/day in interest. The sender expresses concern over a $100 million overseas transfer involving Gagosian, demands a formalized fee agreement, and suggests removing 'Debra' from access to a private plane.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023291.jpg
This document is a printout of an email chain originating in October 2015, forwarded by Jeffrey Epstein to himself in 2018. It details a comprehensive 'constructive list' of 25 action items regarding the restructuring of Epstein's assets, including the sale of a plane and boat, estate planning involving 'Alex' and 'Victoria', tax strategies involving Apollo and Phaidon, and the consolidation of bank accounts. Epstein instructs his assistant Lesley Groff to format this list specifically for 'Leon' (likely Leon Black) to review line by line.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023284.jpg
This document contains a series of emails, culminating on October 26, 2015, from Jeffrey Epstein (implied by context and tone) to Melanie Spinella and Brad Wechsler. The emails aggressively advise on the restructuring of Leon Black's family office ('Elysium'), recommending the firing of almost all staff except Heather, selling the publishing company Phaidon, and addressing significant financial issues regarding a private jet and art loans. Epstein criticizes the current management as a 'failed experiment' and a 'mess,' specifically mentioning Leon Black's decisions and suggesting Brad Wechsler replace a manager named Richard.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023282.jpg
This document contains a thread of emails, likely printed for House Oversight review, between Jeffrey Epstein (sending via Melanie Spinella) and Leon Black ('Leon'). The correspondence reveals a significant fee dispute where Epstein claims he saved Black 'millions' through trust and tax restructuring (specifically mentioning 'Phaidon' and 'JPM') and rejects Black's offer of $10 million, instead referencing a fee of '$40 a year for three years'. The emails also mention high-profile figures such as Kathy Ruemmler and Brad Karp in the context of these financial negotiations.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023279.jpg
This document contains notes and an email chain dated May 18, 2015, sent to Jeffrey Epstein (using the alias jeevacation@gmail.com) and his associates. The content outlines a massive 'brain dump' of financial and legal tasks, including rationalizing over 100 bank accounts, overseeing brokerage accounts at major banks (JPM, DB, GS), dealing with IRS/SEC oversight, and managing assets like art (Picasso, Calder), planes, and boats. The text highlights significant disorganization, noting a 'convoluted' corporate structure, unreviewed invoices, and the fact that the subject is 'sitting on over 100 m of cash.'
