WASHINGTON The FBI has begun contacting people connected to the Sen. John Ensign scandal, a
agency might be initiating a criminal investigation, sources confirmed this morning.

the

Agents have requested to meet with former Ensign aides in what appears to be a preliminary look at the matter

sources said.
The FBI's action follows on the heels of a movement in a separate investigation of Ensign being conducted by

will not put my staff or me in any position to be questioned whatsoever by DOJ, Ethics
or
whoever about the process that was undertaken to preserve equipment.

Short of that, before we do anything with the IT equipment, our office would require a directive in writing
from SLC (or whoever the appropriate entity is here) outlining exactly what we need to do with each
computer, blackberry, or any other IT equipment that currently exists within all of our offices. This
process needs to be carried out so that once our office releases each piece of equipment to SAA, we
are then not held responsible in any way for such equipment.

here is the list of computers to be preserved, to the extent they currently exist. These should be
set aside for the SAA to pull the hard drives (after carefully labeling whose desk each came from). The
SAA can arrange with our office for these drives to be stored in our offsite locked storage facility. We
will store them with the understanding that the data remain under the custody and control of Senator
Ensign. We are safeguarding the disk drives, which are Senate property, in the event Senator Ensign
needs anything from them for legal purposes. Once the relevant computers from the list are
sequestered, the others can be returned to
SAA for recycling. The alternative Is to keep all of the
hard drives. I'm willing to do that, but was guessing that that would be a lot of work for the SAA. Does
this all sound OK with everyone?

But want to be clear, in the event there is any confusion. Our office is in no
position to direct Senator Ensign to do anything with his computers. The data on
them belong to the Senator, and he, or his attorney on his behalf, are the only
ones who can direct his office how to handle his office information. In order to
spare the expense of imaging dozens of hard drives, we have offered to store in
our space whatever hardware Senator Ensign wants to be preserved and
safeguarded. SAA would prefer storing the computers themselves rather than to
go to the trouble and expense of pulling each hard drive from them.

We've also tried to serve as a point of contact for DOJ, Senator Ensign, the
Senator's office, and SAA. But ultimately, we are not a decision-maker about
what gets done. It's up to the Senator, working with his former staff, to make the
decisions he needs to to accommodate his agreement with DOJ. We are happy
to continue to facilitate the arrangements,
cannot make the decisions or
give instructions. suggest that
and
out, directly with the Justice
what should be done on behalf of the Senator, and
and
and we will take care of it from there. If the decision is to store all
office hardware for the time being, we can do that. From prior experience,
would note that whatever is preserved should be clearly labeled, or it will be of
limited potential use.

Subject: RE: hard drives

My preference would be to preserve all IT equipment in SLC's offsite locked


storage facility so that no questions can be raised at any point forward about
which items were preserved and which were not. will not put my staff or me in
any position to be questioned whatsoever by DOJ, Ethics
or whoever
about the process that was undertaken to preserve equipment.

Short of that, before we do anything with the IT equipment, our office would
require a directive in writing from SLC (or whoever the appropriate entity is here)
outlining exactly what we need to do with each computer, blackberry, or any other
IT equipment that currently exists within all of our offices. This process needs to
be carried out so that once our office releases each piece of equipment to SAA,

we are then not held responsible in any way for such equipment.

Please advise how you would like to proceed.

Subject: FW: hard drives


here is the list of computers to be preserved, to the extent they currently
exist. These should be set aside for the SAA to pull the hard drives (after
carefully labeling whose desk each came from). The SAA can arrange with our
office for these drives to be stored in our offsite locked storage facility. We
store them with the understanding that the data remain under the custody
control of Senator Ensign. We are safeguarding the disk drives, which are
Senate property, in the event Senator Ensign needs anything from them for legal
purposes. Once the relevant computers from the list are sequestered, the others
can be returned to the SAA for recycling. The alternative is to keep all of the hard
drives. I'm willing to do that, but was guessing that that would be a lot of work
for the SAA. Does this all sound OK with everyone?

agreement, Senator Ensign's office was preserving all computer hard drives in its
possession. However, if the Senate
is not prepared to
preserve all hard drives, at a minimum, we need the following hard drives listed
below preserved either in their original form or by making a forensic image. If the
Senate makes a forensic image of each of these computers, we request that,
prior to any imaging, the Senate inform the FBI of the process it proposes to use
and that the FBI and DOJ approve this process. This request is to prevent
challenges to the process at a later date.

The computers to be preserved and/or imaged are:

Pursuant to our agreement below, the IT devices either


been shipped or are in the process of
being shipped to the SAA. As for the hard documents, however, the SAA will not take possession of
them. The SAA's position is that hard documents (unlike the devices, which can be wiped and reused)
belong to the Senator, and it is not
SAA's job to hold them.
Thus, we are making arrangements for Iron Mountain to hold the hard documents from 2006 on. Again
based on the agreement below, the pre-2006 documents have been released from the document hold.
If you have any questions or concerns about the above, please call me ASAP. Thanks.

want to make sure that have understood our agreement regarding the preservation of documents as
Senator Ensign closes his offices In Nevada and D.C. Our plan to send the IT equipment (computers,
servers and blackberries) from his offices and staff to the Sergeant at Arms (SAA), with instructions to
preserve all such IT equipment pending further instructions by the Department of Justice. Senator
Ensign authorizes the Department of Justice to determine which items of the IT equipment
be
preserved and maintained.

As for the hard documents in the Senator's offices, the pre-2006 documents can be released from the
document hold and, thus, no longer need to be preserved. The hard documents from
J
are,
however to be preserved and will be shipped to the SAA with instructions to hold all such hard
documents pending further instructions from the Department of Justice.

Possible Email Hosting Companies

Identifying the Email Hosting companies is pretty tricky without speaking to anyone. Saying that, I did a bunch of research
and consulted with one of our Cyber Agents. Basically, this is what it is looking like (no exact science though).
ALLEGIANTAIR - Company appears to be hosting their own Email. We will have to go to the company to
preserve E-mails.
2) NV
appears to be hosting their own Email.
3) NRSC - Company appears to be utilizing the services of a third-party hosting service identified as SMART TECH
CORPORATION
NOVEMBER
- Extremely tricky. Could be a private individual residing in No. Virginia who is providing
hosting services.
don't believe we will be able to identify the hosting service without
speaking to some people. When you have a chance, give me a call and can explain.

Matt - We need to reach out to Senate Counsel to ask for preservation of certain email accounts for Ensign and his
staff. We've been in touch with the Senate Ethics Committee counsel (conveniently, there are two former PIN attorneys
in that office) regarding their investigation, and we're not certain that all of the relevant accounts have been preserved,
so we're taking this step today. We have a strong working relationship with Senate Counsel, and we anticipate
cooperation on this. Since he's in the papers now, thought you should know.
