How about 2pm on 7/11? We are also trying to schedule GJ with ████ on another case but if

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.

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.
