returned information which we received on May 3, 2007.

Q The same type of information?

a Yes, the same type of information, seeking wire

transfer information from Jeffrey Epstein to victims.

We also served OLY-32 to J.P. Morgan Chase Bank.

After serving that one on February 26, 2007, they informed

us by letter that they are known as Chase, not J.P. Morgan

Chase. So we had to reissue another subpoena, which was

taken care of on March 22, '07.

We also issued OLY-40 on Chase Bank as well on

April 4, 2007. We received records on April 13, 2007 and

April 19, 2007 to cover all three subpoenas that were
served.

Q And those sought information related to bank
accounts and credit cards related to the defendants?

A Yes. Additionally, we served OLY-33 on Dr.

Thomas Rofranno (phonetic), who's a chiropractic doctor.

We were seeking records related to Jeffrey Epstein as a

patient. The subpoena was served on March 6, 2007, and

Thomas Rofranno provided materials on March 16, 2007.
Also we have OLY-36, which was served on the

Palm Beach County Health Department. It was served on

March 5, 2007, seeking birth certificates of our victims

that we were researching. We received the records from

]
the Palm Beach County Health Department on April 16, 2007. [

We also served two subpoenas on the Adult Video
Warehouse. The first one was OLY-41, which was served --
both of these were served on April 24, 2007, and they were

seeking any transactions that had occurred on behalf of

Mr. Epstein or those individuals that were working for him
or with him. We received items back on the OLY-41
subpoena on April 30, 2007.

The second subpoena served on Adult Video
Warehouse was OLY-34. Again, it was served on April 24,
2007, and the Adult Video Warehouse complied and provided
us materials on April 30, 2007.

That concludes all of the items that we have

received to date for the outstanding subpoenas that were
issued.
Q Are the documents that you refer to in that box

that's on the desk?

A Yes, they are.

BE: Docs anyone want to review those |

documents? At this time, no one is requesting that

they want to review the documents today.

maintain those documents.
