Employee-1 recognizes the shape, color, and binding of the book, and recognizes the formatting and style of the entries as consistent with the manner in which the defendant’s book was organized and the way in which entries appeared. Employee-1 also recognizes several of the contacts listed in Government Exhibit 52 as friends of the defendant and Epstein. The entries include, among others, the defendant’s family members. See GX 52E.\nII. Discussion\nA. Authenticity\nAs a general matter, “an item of evidence must ‘be authenticated through introduction of evidence sufficient to warrant a finding that the item is what the proponent says it is.” United States v. Corley, 679 F. App’x 1, 4 (2d Cir. 2017) (summary order) (quoting Crawford v. Tribeca Lending Corp., 815 F.3d 121, 126 (2d Cir. 2016)). “Under Rule 901 of the Federal Rules of Evidence, ‘[t]he requirement of authentication . . . as a condition precedent to admissibility is satisfied by evidence sufficient to support a finding that the matter in question is what its proponent claims.’” United States v. Jackson, 345 F.3d 59, 65 (2d Cir. 2003) (quoting Fed. R. Evid. 901(a)).\nThis bar for authentication “is ‘not particularly high.’” United States v. Bout, 651 F. App’x 62, 63–64 (2d Cir. 2016) (summary order) (quoting United States v. Gagliardi, 506 F.3d 140, 151 (2d Cir. 2007)).\nDOJ-OGR-00006965",
