Re: I/M Epstein # 76318-054 From To Date 2019/08/28 11:22 Subject: Re: I/M Epstein # 76318-054 Attachments: TEXT.htm If you need something for Program Review, I'm happy to write a memo explaining why your office hasn't done anything with the funds yet. Do you think that would be sufficient? >> (b)(6), (b)(7)(C) 3/28/2019 10:20 AM >>> Hi (b)(6), (b)(7)(C) It is on a daily report that we run and with program review approaching, the review team may ask why this inmate hasn't been cleared off of the report. In light of the circumstance, I just wanted clarification on what should be done because of what is being put out in the media. (b)(6), (b)(7)(C) Trust Fund Supervisor MCC New York 150 Park Row New York, NY 10007 (646) 836-6300 ext (b)(6), (b)(7)(C) >> (b)(6), (b)(7)(C) 8/28/2019 10:04 AM >>> Hi All, (b)(6). asked me last week to reach out to his attorneys to find out what they wanted us to do with the funds. I explained to defense counsel that our normal practice was to cut a check to the next-of-kin that we have on-file. However, given the circumstances and the discussion of Epstein's will in the media, I told defense counsel we wanted to make sure we didn't need to do anything differently here. Defense counsel told me they would get back to me. I haven't heard from them yet. Is there a deadline by which we need to release the funds?
