Wait until you read this one. Alex and I would like you to draft a letter which sets forth a brief history of the nature of 
the case, followed by a chronology of the plea negotiations and vetting with CEOS that resulted from those meetings, 
and how the civil resolution evolved. Thanks, 
Jeff

The matters about which they backtracked are: 
They originally agreed to plead to the state felony that they thought was unregisterable (but did not tell us knowing we 
thought it was), but then discovered they were wrong and tried to get out of it. 
They tried several times to knock down the jail time after agreeing to the time.

Karen — What do you think? 
Hi Jeff and Matt — I just want to again voice my disagreement with promising to have a meeting or having a 
meeting with Lefcourt or any other of Epstein's attorneys. As I mentioned, this is not a case where we will be 
sitting down to negotiate whether a defendant will serve one year versus two years of probation. This is a case 
where the defendant is facing the possibility of dozens of years of prison time. Just as the defense will defend a 
case like that differently than they would handle a probation-type case, we need to handle this case differently. 
Part of our prosecution strategy was already disclosed at the last meeting, and I am concerned that more will be 
disclosed at a future meeting. 
My co-chair, John McMillan, who has prosecuted more of these cases than the rest of us combined, and-who 
also opposes a meeting. 
e have 
been accused of not being "strategic thinkers" because of our opposition to these meetings, but we are simply 
looking at this case as a violent crime prosecution involving stiff penalties rather than as a white collar or public 
corruption case where the parties can amicably work out a light sentence. 
With respect to the "policy reasons" that Lefcourt wants to discuss, t
ere already raised in his letter 
(which is part of the indictment package) and during his meeting with 
and myself. Those reasons are: (1) 
he wants the Petit policy to trump our ability to prosecute Epstein, (2) this shouldn't be a federal offense, and 
(3) the victims were willing participants so the crime shouldn't be prosecuted at all. Unless the Office thinks 
that any of those arguments will be persuasive, a meeting will not be beneficial to the prosecution, it will only 
benefit the defense. With respect to Lefcourt's promised legal analysis, that also has already been provided. 
The only way to get additional analysis is to expose to the defense the other charges that we are considering. In 
my opinion this would seriously undermine the prosecution. 
The defense is anxious to have a meeting in order to delay the investigation/prosecution, to find out more about 
our investigation, and to use political pressure to stop the investigation. 
I have no control over the Office's decisions regarding whether to meet with the defense or to whom the facts 
and analysis of the case will be disclosed. However, if you all do decide to go forward with these meetings in a 
way that is detrimental to the investigation, then I will have to ask to have the case reassigned to an AUSA who 
is in agreement with the handling of the case.

I have your letter. I think we are on the same page, but to be sure I do want to clarify that we spoke the other week and 
I did say that if you want to meet with me again, I am ready to do so. The wording of your letter, however, suggests 
implicitly that I agreed to contact you before a decision is made to seek an indictment of Mr. Epstein. If that was your 
understanding, then please allow me to clarify. Our investigation is ongoing and if we decide to seek an indictment, we 
don't intend to call Mr. Epstein's representatives to let him know that. Of course, in the interim, if you would like to 
make a presentation to us, we are willing to listen. 
Along those lines, given the fact that we have already met once, with schedules being what they are, it makes sense for 
our criminal chief, Matt Menchel, to be included when you make another presentation, rather than working up the 
chain incrementally. I realize you were being respectful in not attempting to leapfrog over me, which I appreciate. I 
will pass on your request to meet with the U.S. Attorney as well, but can't commit for him one way or another. When 
you have some dates in mind, let me know and I will try to set up a meeting in Miami.
