Re: FBI Interviews

Conchita

You may recall that I asked you NOT to contact any of our employees directly. I understand you reached out to our Victim Witness Coordinator in Miami. If you want to talk to ANYONE at the FBI regarding this case/documentary or in any official capacity while you're with a media outlet, you MUST go through either me or Judy Orihuela in Miami. I can not allow you to call our employees directly as we do not allow any other media outlet to have direct access to our employees without going through our process.

I am fully aware that you have your job to tell your story for the documentary you are producing. However, I have my job and one of them is to ensure that reporter do not call our employees directly without going through the appropriate approval process. When reporters call our employees up directly that simply says they have no regard for our policy or our role as media coordinators. I'm sure you can also appreciate that if this continues we may have to reevaluate what kind of assistance we will offer in the future to you on this and other projects.

So, if I can ask you oh so kindly again NOT to contact anyone else in the FBI directly unless I provide you with the guidance to do so. Thank you.

FYI - Rene Morrison(sp) with NBC contacted VWS re Human trafficking docu (never mentioning Epstein) and she then told the VWC that Conchita would be emailing her with info she was seeking. The VWC then called Conchita to tell her she had to go thru proper channels and that was the first time epstein was mentioned by Conchita. Also it was Rene who threw out Director Mueller's name. Anyway, I just wanted to make sure u were updated. It appears Conchita may have been trying to go through her contacts instead of a direct contact...
