To: Jeffrey EpsteinUeevacationagmail.comj From: Jeffrey Epstein Sent Sun 6/16/2013 1:24:08 PM Bill, I am devastated beyond words. I find myself losing my best friend , and my career ,all in one day by no fault of my own. As your friend , I suggest you carefully reconsider your alternatives. I will stand by you and help if I can. I want to see you happy, truly. Difficult choices , no matter what. as you know I am going in for surgery on my eyes. This timing could not be worse. I will be out of it for a few days. I hope you are able to convince Melinda to allow me to continue doing my job, a job you described as i could not have done better. I recognize the fact that you might be unable at this time . I realize I will need a lawyer to review any agreement we might enter into, but I don't trust any , with so much sensitive info. I have asked Jeffrey to oversee and negotiate , and have given him power of attorney to act on my behalf . He also needed to be my health proxy during my operation. I have informed him of all the details surrounding our dilemma. I trust him 100%. My communication with him is privileged , no worry . You can too. He has dealt with very similar problems in the past. I would greatly appreciate you and he talking directly. He does not know Larry , and cannot be open with him. He doesn't like pr people. This is a terrible circumstance in which we find ourselves ,but I am confident of our friendship and I know you know how devoted I am to you . p *********************************************************** The information contained in this communication is confidential, may be attorney-client privileged, may constitute inside information, and is intended only for the use of the addressee.
