Relationship Details

This document appears to be page 143 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the footer 'Epst' and the ISBN), which is part of a House Oversight Committee production. It details Edward Snowden's departure from Hong Kong on June 23, the legal maneuvering by his lawyer Jonathan Man, and the U.S. government's frantic efforts—led by FBI Director Mueller and Obama adviser Lisa Monaco—to prevent him from reaching Russia. It concludes with Vladimir Putin admitting in a September 3 press briefing that Snowden had made prior contact with Russian diplomatic representatives in Hong Kong. NOTE: While the author is Edward Jay Epstein, the content is about Edward Snowden, not Jeffrey Epstein.
