Notable Quotes 3
In recognition of the Government's ongoing discovery obligations, today we are producing copies of the materials listed in the below index, which materials are stamped with control numbers SDNY_GM_00328070 through SDNY_GM_00356148.
Because the estate has not waived any of those privileges, the Prosecution Team in this case will not have access to any materials from those devices identified as privileged by the taint review team, and the Government will not produce any such privileged material to the defense in this case.
Further, it is the Government's current understanding that none of the seized devices belonged to the defendant, Ghislaine Maxwell, and as a result, it is the Government's understanding that the Prosecution Team is not legally permitted to provide you with the full set of non-privileged materials that were extracted from the devices.
Red Flags 1
- The fact that the government is limiting the discovery materials provided to the defense based on privilege assertions by Jeffrey Epstein's estate and the government's understanding of legal limitations raises concerns about potential suppression of evidence.
