Subject: FW: Memo to file re DANY call on Leon Black/[REDACTED]

Hi

Do you have time for a call to discuss a victim who recently came to our attention with connections to the Epstein/Maxwell case? To be clear, we aren't suggesting investigating Maxwell for more crimes, but this victim has identified other potential traffickers, and we think it makes sense to do a bit of due diligence before deciding what, if anything, we should do with this information.

Thanks

She had reached out to our Office and given some high level overview but to avoid raising her or her clients expectations I was hoping to try to evaluate whether we'd be inclined to investigate the conduct before circling back to her with any direct inquiries. If Jeanne is willing to allow you to share interview notes or something similar, that would be super helpful.

Hi [ ]

Yes that's correct. Have you been in touch with her attorney, Jeanne Christensen?

The image displays an email timestamp and a redacted sender's name. The timestamp indicates the email was sent on June 20, 2023, at 10:49 AM. The recipient's name is also redacted. The content below the timestamp begins with a greeting "Hi," followed by another redacted name.

Thanks for the call the week before last — I just wanted to follow up to confirm that as we discussed, if the victim is willing to permit you to share information with our Office, it would be helpful to get a more detailed download of her allegations. Happy to discuss whenever.

Thanks,

Good morning

We are reaching out to see if you have some time this week or next week for a quick phone call re: this investigation. We have a new CW who has come forward and alleged sexual abuse by Leon Black. This CW was trafficked by Maxwell and Epstein, and we are wondering whether her name has come across your desk in the course of your investigation.

Thank you,

Hi

We don't have an current plans to interview again. We were previously interested in meeting with the second victim represented by her attorney after the Maxwell trial. Based on our last conversation, I believe you had met with her already. If you are still pursuing an investigation encompassing both victims, we are not likely to open an other investigation. If anything changes or my understanding is incorrect, please let me know.

Thank you,
