I. 
MS. RICHARDSON'S COOPERATION AND ASSISTANCE 
While incarcerated, Ms. Richardson, unsolicited, has provided important assistance to the 
Government on various investigations and prosecutions. Although she herself cannot file a motion 
for a sentencing reduction under Rule 35, all of the Assistant United States Attorneys with whom 
Ms. Richardson has met or to whom she has offered information welcomed her assistance, even 
where her testimony at trial was not ultimately required. 
are described below. 
Examples of Ms. Richardson's assistance 
C. Ms. Richardson Provided Information to the Government Regarding Jeffrey 
Epstein's Death. 
Given that Ms. Richardson has been a prisoner at the MCC since her arrest in 2016, she 
has relationships with guards and inmates who often share invaluable information concerning 
events at the MCC. When Jeffrey Epstein died in August 2019, Ms. Richardson heard helpful 
information concerning the circumstances surrounding his death and requested that counsel 
provide such details (such as the names of the guards on duty at his time of death, their actions in 
response to his hanging, and which cameras to check for potentially helpful footage) to the 
Government. The Government expressed appreciation for the information, followed up with Ms. 
Richardson through counsel to confirm additional details and, although it did not request her 
testimony or an in-person proffer, we note that many of the details Ms. Richardson provided were 
reflected in various charging documents.
