The Non-Prosecution Agreement was executed September 24, 2007. It was later found to violate the Crime Victims' Rights Act by Judge Kenneth Marra in February 2019, who ruled prosecutors illegally concealed the deal from victims. The NPA is considered one of the most controversial plea deals in modern American legal history.

Correspondence reconstructed from publicly released court documents, depositions, and investigative reporting. Email addresses are stylized — actual addresses were redacted in official releases. All persons are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.
