RE: Epstein-related files
Hi Brianna,
I hope you are doing well. We spoke about a year ago regarding the Jeffrey Epstein case, and I am reaching back out now to request assistance in the discovery process for my office's related prosecution of Ghislaine Maxwell. Would your office be willing to share with us a copy of its files relating to your prior investigation and prosecution of Epstein? I'm happy to have a call to discuss further, and please let me know if there is someone else in your office I should speak with regarding this request. I can be reached any time on my cellphone at Thank you very much for your help.
Best,
Maurene

Hi
I'm glad the contact info was useful. I am still trying to track down if the clerks have a signed copy. I believe the contact person for the clerks office I previously provided you with may be able to help. Another thought is that the Palm Beach Police Department may have a signed copy. I am trying to get you a contact for them as well.
