Notable Quotes 2
For #4, the electronic files recovered from Epstein's devices have the same metadata on the hard drive that was available when the FBI seized each file. For files that were carved or deleted, no metadata was recovered, so none is viewable, except for data showing when a particular file was saved to a drive by the investigative team or prepared for production.
We request that as to the SUPP production, you: a. Provide a list of all files that were carved or deleted; b. Confirm if all those files were produced in native format or if any were converted to PDF; c. If any were converted, provide additional information including the MIME type (for all), and if available from application metadata original file name, file dates, etc. This would amount to the equivalent of the index you provided for SDNY011.
