From: " (USANYS)" To: " (USANYS)" •cl Cc: ' (USANYS)" Subject: Epstein Date: Fri, 30 Nov 2018 22:46:15 +0000 Importance: Normal FBI NY is opening on Epstein and we have prepared and initiation sheet here. They have access to electronic files from Florida office (the Palm Beach RA) and are in touch with one of the main case agents there, and the initial sense is that FBI Palm Beach is not resistant at all to us pursuing. From an initial poke at some of the electronic files, they identified at least three identified New York victims, including one who helped recruit other victims. In additions, the "scheduler" — who is among those to receive non-pros protection in the Epstein non-pros — often worked from New York. We are jointly coming with a gameplan. We conferred with and M, and they would like to have work the case with our team. I am okay with that if you are. Given the NPA complications, view is that before we take the step of interviewing (or reinterviewing) victims, which could have the step of raising hope, we make sure Main will not be a hurdle on the NPA issue. On that note, has heard that there was a memo written by USAO SDFL to main in the past justifying the decision to do the non-pros. Let me know if you want me to circulate this to EFTA00071480
