The emails were exchanged in 2009, disclosed in the section of Justice's (DOJ) most recent Epstein file drop. The files posted last Friday include some of the several million pages of records that officials said were withheld from an initial release in December.
"We had no knowledge of this relationship or any journalistic reason for it. The emails clearly refer to personal projects."
The emails in question appear friendly in tone, with the sender referring to Epstein as "Jeffrey," and making comments such as, "I've been thinking about you."

In another exchange that starts April 16, 2009, Epstein and someone whose name is redacted email each other about that person's documentary.
"Saw the documentary form my jail cell, ironic no," Epstein wrote.
In 2009, Epstein was serving jail time in Florida after pleading guilty to soliciting prostitution from someone under the age of 18.
In response, the unnamed person writes, "Did u get it on tv or did u watch the DVD I sent I ages ago?? I've been thinking about you. How are you?"
On April 21, 2009, Epstein asks the unnamed person to call him at a number with a south Florida area code. They then exchange notes about the British Virgin Islands, with Epstein asking "how much longer will you be there," and the person responding they looked up Epstein's island on a map.
" It was snowing when I got back from the BVI's," the person writes.
"You planted a seed with your invite today," the unnamed person wrote.
Epstein responds that he's "tied up until aug," and the unnamed person writes, "oh well, looks like it's a long flight anyhow... Edmonton is so far away from EVERYTHING."
Burns died of cancer in 2024 at the age of 54.
Burns also produced a 2007 documentary called Mr. Big about the RCMP's tactics for seeking confessions, based on the case involving her brother, Sebastian Burns. The person exchanging emails with Epstein repeatedly mentions their documentary.
