[GRADE A2 — EFTA02424058, EFTA02423919, EFTA02407536, EFTA02421868 (Epstein correspondence)]
On May 18, 2010, the Duke writes to Epstein: “Thought you’d like to know [Jes Staley]’s coming into London next week and I’m trying to find a slot for him in my schedule” (EFTA02424058). Minutes later, he follows up from Kuala Lumpur/Singapore, noting he will “ring Monday evening London time” (EFTA02423919). On Aug 10, 2010, he provides a London window (Aug 16–24) and notes a Geneva trip. On Oct 7, 2010, he sends a detailed itinerary covering Hanoi, Saigon, Singapore, KL, Hong Kong, and London return dates (EFTA02421868).
These emails document calendar-level logistics and demonstrate that Epstein was part of the Duke’s scheduling loop for meetings and travel windows. The language is administrative rather than social and provides concrete itinerary data.
WHAT THIS SHOWS AND DOES NOT SHOW: The documents show direct scheduling coordination and travel logistics between the Duke’s office and Epstein. They do NOT establish that the Jes Staley meeting occurred or that any business outcomes resulted.
