Subject FW: Memo to i e re DANY call on Leon Black/ 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

Happy to discuss whenever. Thanks,

I got a voice mail yesterday afternoon but it was cut off — but I did hear " and assumed it was you? Hope your trial is going well. I have some limited time to chat tomorrow between 1 and 3pm, and then am pretty open Thursday and Friday if any of those times work for you. Thanks,

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,
