Kuvin, Esq. Leopold~Kuvin, P.A. 2925 PGA Boulevard Suite 200 Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33410 Re: Jeffrey Epstein/B.B. Dear Mr. Kuvin: Thank you for your letter regarding the deposition of Mr. Reiter. [ have not received or reviewed a copy of Mr. Reiter's deposition, so I do not know the substance of his testimony. In response to your questions, no computer was seized from Mr. Epstein’s home, and the FBI did not return any computer equipment to Mr. Epstein, or any lawyer or investigator working for Mr. Epstein. While Chief of Police, Mr. Reiter was provided with a copy of the list of identified victims that was provided to Mr. Epstein via his attorneys. A cover sheet provided that the document should be treated as confidential, pursuant to Title 18, United States Code, Section 3509(d) and Florida Law. Mr. Reiter was not instructed to destroy the letter by the U.S. Attorney's Office, although he may have decided to do so of his own accord. Regarding your proposed subpoenas, a federal official’ s testimony cannot be authorized without first complying with their employing agency's Tou/ry regulations. See United States ex rel. Touhy Ragen, 340 U.S. 462, 468 (1951); 5 U.S.C. § 301. The regulations related to the Federal Bureau of Investigation can be found at 28 C.F.R. §§ 16.21, et seq. Requests for documents are normally handled through FOIA requests. Agency counsel for the FBI handles those types of requests. Sincerely, Jeffrey H. Sloman United States Attorney .
