This document is an email chain from July 24, 2020, involving staff at the US Attorney's Office (SDNY) discussing a press inquiry from Sunday Times reporter Dipesh Gadher. Gadher informed the office he intended to publish the name of 'Minor Victim 3' from the Ghislaine Maxwell indictment, believing her to be a specific British woman who had previously appeared on NBC Dateline. The USANYS staff discussed the ethical concerns of the reporter identifying the victim and successfully intervened via an off-the-record conversation to prevent the story from running at that time.
