Dear FOIA Public Liaison Officer:

This letter is in response to the July 17, 2019 letter regarding the eight above referenced FOIA requests from Assistant Director A copy of which is enclosed for you reference.

First, in regard to Records concerning were requested in FOIA requests: EOUSA-2019-003549, EOUSA-2019- 003550, EOUSA-2019-003552, EOUSA-2019-003553, and EOUSA-2019-003554 directed toward the United States Attorney's Offices for the District of New Mexico, Southern District of New York, District of the Virgin Islands, Southern District of Florida, and Northern District of Georgia respectively.

See the signed authorization form enclosed.

is our client and we are obtaining her records on her behalf. This is a priority over all other aspects of our record requests contained in the eight referenced FOIA requests. Specifically, records related to complaints filed by her against Jeffrey Epstein in New York are requested on an expedited basis if possible.

Second, in regard to Jeffrey Epstein (DOB: 01/20/1953). Records concerning Epstein were requested in FOIA requests: EOUSA-2019-003549, EOUSA-2019-003550, EOUSA-2019- 003552, EOUSA-2019-003553, and EOUSA-2019-003554 directed toward the United States Attorney's Offices for the District of New Mexico, Southern District of New York, District of the Virgin Islands, Southern District of Florida, and Northern District of Georgia respectively. Subsequent to our original request, Jeffrey Epstein died on August 10, 2019. Given that Epstein died in Federal custody while facing Federal charges, and the resulting media attention, we assume that the Department of Justice is well aware of his death. As Jeffrey Epstein is now deceased, any privacy concerns are extinguished. We therefore renew our request for all records pertaining to

Finally, we request all public documents concerning the named individuals that may be

contained within your files as described by Assistant Director in the third paragraph of his



letter. We are prepared to pay reasonable duplication fees in an amount not to exceed $500 for

any such records.
