Cohen & Gresser LLP 800 Third Avenue New York, NY 10022 Laura Menninger, Esq. Jeffrey Pagliuca, Esq. Haddon, Morgan and Foreman, P.C. 150 East Tenth Avenue Denver, CO 80203 Bobbi Stemheim, Esq. Law Offices of Bobbi C. Stemheim 33 West 19th Street-4th Fl. New York, NY 10007 Re: United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell, 20 Cr. 330 (MN) Dear Counsel: The Government writes regarding your request to review sixteen (16) discs in the possession of the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI") as part of the file previously maintained by the FBI's Palm Beach Resident Agency (the "FBI Florida Office") during its investigation of Jeffrey Epstein under evidence number 1B8, Subitem 8 (the "Discs"). As noted in the evidence log previously provided to you, the Discs are described in the FBI's evidence system as follows: (16) DVD-R discs with printed labels reading, "Palm Beach County Sheriffs Office Case # 05-250067 Epstein Encase Files Palm Beach PD DVD-R for General VERBATIM DVD Computer Crimes Unit." Each disc is also respectively labeled, "Disk 1 of 16," "Disk 2 of 16," etc. When the FBI's New York Office first received the FBI Florida Office's file regarding its investigation of Jeffrey Epstein, the agents working on this case attempted to review all electronic media contained in that file, including the Discs. During that review, the case agents were unable to open any files contained on the Discs and believed that the files were inoperable. EFTA00015823
