A formal 'Touhy request' letter dated August 30, 2021, from Ghislaine Maxwell's attorney Christian Everdell to Assistant Attorney General Kenneth Polite. The letter requests the testimony of four redacted FBI/Task Force agents for Maxwell's upcoming trial. These agents were involved in two key investigations: the 2006-2008 Palm Beach FBI investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and the subsequent New York FBI investigation that led to the 2019/2020 indictments of Epstein and Maxwell.
This document is a page from the cross-examination transcript of a witness named Parkinson in Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE (Ghislaine Maxwell trial). The testimony establishes that specific videos and photographs of the Palm Beach residence were taken on October 20, 2005, by the witness. The questioning highlights that these images do not reflect the state of the house in 1994, at which time the witness states they were working at 'West Palm'.
This document details events from August-September 2007 in the Jeffrey Epstein case, focusing on U.S. Attorney Acosta's decision to meet with Epstein's newly hired, high-profile attorneys, Kenneth Starr and Jay Lefkowitz. It reveals internal tensions, with the FBI pushing for federal prosecution, while Acosta strategized with his colleague Sloman to manage the new defense team and prevent them from escalating procedural complaints to Washington D.C. The document also notes Acosta's prior professional relationship with Starr and Lefkowitz from his time at their law firm, Kirkland & Ellis.
This legal document outlines the defense's argument that it was hindered by the unavailability of old records. Specifically, incomplete travel records from Shoppers Travel prevented them from challenging the testimony of witnesses Annie Farmer and Jane regarding their travel with Epstein. Furthermore, the lack of bank and credit card records from the 1990s and 2000s meant the defense could not contest the government's claims about a $30 million payment from Epstein to Ms. Maxwell or verify other key dates.
