From: Jay Lefkowitz _______________________________ Sent: 3/8/2011 4:40:35 PM To: Michael S. Sitrick Subject: Fw: Importance: High ; Jeffrey Epstein [jeeyacation@gmail.com] Privileged - Redacted From: Jay Lefkowitz Sent: 03/08/2011 10:39 AM CST To: "Wolfe, Alexandra" 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 -----______ From: "Wolfe, Alexandra" ______ 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 Sent: Mon 3/7/2011 12:18 PM To: Wolfe, Alexandra Subject: Dear Ms. Wolfe, I understand you have some questions about my client, Jeffrey Epstein. Given that much of the press coverage surrounding Mr. Epstein has been inaccurate and in some instances, defamatory, 1 would like to suggest that you send me any facutal questions so that 1 can provide you with accurate responses. 1 am also available to speak with you.
