From: Jay Lefkowitz as Sent: 3/8/2011 4:40:35 PM To: Michael S. Sitrick EE ; Jeffrey Epstein [[email protected]] Subject: Fw: Importance: — High Privileged - Redacted : From: Jay Lefkowitz Sent: 03/08/2011 10:39 AM CST To: "Wolfe, Alexandra" xs Subject: Re: Alexandra, I have not been able to respond to your questions because Mr. Epstein is traveling. But if you plan to make any factual assertions about him in your article, I hope you will run the facts by me, as you said yesterday you would do. Mr. Epstein has been the subject of many inaccurate and misleading articles, and I am sure Newsweek would not want to make such a mistake or worse, libel him. Best, Jay ----- Original Message --pae Sent: 03/07/2011 02:04 PM EST To: Jay Lefkowitz Subject: RE: Dear Mr. Lefkowitz, Here are the questions I'd like to ask Jeffrey Epstein. Would he be available to answer any of these on the phone or by email? People have told me some of his thoughts on background but I wanted to see if he could tell me or email me anything directly I could use on the record. Also I'd like to run the information I already have by you or him. Thank you, Alexandra -what is he chiefly focusing on now? Is he spending more time on The Jeffrey Epstein Science Foundation? could he talk about his interest in science and the 2011 grants/conference? -How has his business been affected? Is there any new direction he's taking it? Does he still have the same clients or new ones? Is it still at $15 billion? -Did he still work while in prison? How was that arranged? with whom was he working/advising? -where is he spending his time now? How has his social life changed from three years ago? -Is he still close with Ghislaine Maxwell? -what were friends/colleagues/acquaintances reactions to his conviction? -what does he think about the sentence he got- was it too lenient or too harsh and why? -what is his side of the story and have people been supportive? -Is he continuing the charity initiatives he started with Bill Clinton, etc? From: Jay Lefkowitz as Sent: Mon 3/7/2011 12:18 PM To: Wolfe, Alexandra Subject: Dear Ms. Wolfe,

Bradley Edwards’ Opposition to Jeffrey Epstein’s Summary Judgment Motion – Claims of Abuse of Process, Witness Tampering, and Links to High‑Profile Figures

Bradley Edwards’ Opposition to Jeffrey Epstein’s Summary Judgment Motion – Claims of Abuse of Process, Witness Tampering, and Links to High‑Profile Figures The filing enumerates numerous specific leads that, if verified, tie Jeffrey Epstein to a wide network of powerful individuals (Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Alan Dershowitz, Ghislaine Maxwell, etc.) and to alleged obstruction of federal investigations, witness intimidation, and a non‑prosecution agreement. It also references concrete documents (exhibits, deposition excerpts, flight logs, FBI emails) that could be pursued for forensic analysis, discovery requests, or FOIA requests. The combination of high‑profile actors, alleged criminal conduct, and detailed procedural allegations makes this a strong investigative lead. Key insights: Edwards alleges Epstein invoked the Fifth Amendment to avoid answering substantive questions, creating adverse inferences.; The motion cites a “Holy Grail” journal allegedly listing underage victims and high‑profile contacts (Trump, Clinton, etc.).; Claims that Epstein’s attorneys (including Alan Dershowitz) may have helped suppress victim testimony and influence the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
