Hi,

We're working on a story in which we speak to several former federal prosecutors and US Attorneys about the potential next steps in the Epstein investigation, particularly as it pertains to Prince Andrew's unwillingness to cooperate.

One of the things that has come up from multiple people is how unusual it is for Geoffrey Berman to have spoken publicly about this matter, not once, but twice.

Per one former US Attorney: "It's an unusual move because generally speaking, there is a rule, there's guidance in the U.S. attorney's manual that comes from the attorney general that indicates that they are not to comment." Full disclosure, in most, if not all cases, the people I spoke with said they would likely have done the same thing.

## That said, would you or US Atty Berman like to provide any statement or comment to be induded in the story?

We are on deadline for 4 p.m. Monday. Thank you in advance, I hope to hear from you before then.
