This legal document details the FBI's efforts in January 2008 to re-establish contact with victims in the Jeffrey Epstein case by sending standardized notification letters. FBI agent Villafaña expressed concern to her supervisors about losing contact with victims and proposed proactive measures, while also noting that Epstein's defense attorneys were aggressively deposing victims in a related state case. The document highlights the procedural challenges of maintaining victim communication during a complex federal investigation.
