Because they farmed this production out to a thousand drunk monkeys at a thousand drunk typewriters, it\u2019s the exact same employee<\/em> in both emails, but the government redacted her full name and email in the first one \u2014 except in the salutation \u2014 and left her completely unredacted in the second email. <\/p>\n In September of that year, a whole four-person UBS team writes Maxwell to confirm that they\u2019ve passed along $218,791.31 to Jones Day<\/a>. A November email provides a summary of her transfers throughout the year<\/a>. The summary includes Haddon Morgan and Foreman, the Denver-based firm that served as Maxwell\u2019s primary counsel in the defamation suit Virginia Giuffre brought in 2015, which makes sense. <\/p>\n But how does Jones Day play into all this? Were they behind-the-scenes counsel in that case? Were they working on some other matter for Maxwell? The Justice Department database is an inconclusive mess so we don\u2019t really know.<\/p>\n It\u2019s not a crime to represent an accused criminal, of course. It\u2019s a pretty big part of the job. But it is a little weird to find a major law firm making its first appearance in this case so late in the game. <\/p>\n The post Jones Day Collecting Cash From Ghislaine Maxwell Epstein Files Show<\/a> appeared first on Above the Law<\/a>.<\/p>\n It\u2019s time to give Paul, Weiss a brief respite from the barrage of Epstein revelations. There may well be more to come, but we can give some other law firms their day in the sun. Like Jones Day, who apparently represented Epstein\u2019s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell back in 2017. Either that or Maxwell routinely deposited tens of thousands of dollars into the Jones Day Client Trust Account for no reason in particular.<\/p>\n There are at least four emails in the files that show Maxwell transferring funds from UBS to the Jones Day trust account.<\/p>\n The first \u2014 that we\u2019ve found \u2014 is dated February 6, 2017 and finds Maxwell asking UBS to transfer $25k to the Jones Day Client Trust Account<\/a>. As far as I can tell, there\u2019s no contemporaneous public record of Maxwell working with Jones Day. Next, on April 18, 2017, a UBS employee confirms that she had completed a wire transfer requested by Maxwell to Jones Day in the amount of $31,746.50<\/a>. <\/p>\n Because they farmed this production out to a thousand drunk monkeys at a thousand drunk typewriters, it\u2019s the exact same employee<\/em> in both emails, but the government redacted her full name and email in the first one \u2014 except in the salutation \u2014 and left her completely unredacted in the second email. <\/p>\n In September of that year, a whole four-person UBS team writes Maxwell to confirm that they\u2019ve passed along $218,791.31 to Jones Day<\/a>.
