IMD received a letter from NARA (2nd attachment) based on a media report (1st attachment) the FBI was allegedly destroying records related to Epstein. Specifically, page 5 in the media report stats: "There are FBI servers," said ex-agent-turned-whistleblower Garret O'Boyle, "and people inside the FBI have been working night and day to destroy files on these servers." Any time there is an allegation of unauthorized destruction, NARA contacts the agency involved requesting additional information to either properly report the destruction and/or provide sufficient information that the allegation is unfounded. They also post this information on their public-facing website. EFTA00173345
