854.** That is the number of documents in the federal Epstein archive in which the name Elen Capri appears — a figure virtually unknown to the public record, whose direct email correspondence with Jeffrey Epstein has now been released as part of the Department of Justice's evidence tranche.
The emails span late 2011 through late 2012, a period during which Epstein continued operating his network while under post-conviction travel restrictions. Capri's messages reveal a personal familiarity with Epstein — and a documented connection to the logistics network his staff maintained.

The Email Correspondence
Document vol00011-efta02695613-pdf, dated December 14, 2011, is among the earliest in the series. The exchange is a back-and-forth between Elen Capri — emailing from elen_lana@hotmail.com via BlackBerry — and Jeffrey Epstein, corresponding from jeevacation@gmail.com.
The messages are brief and conversational. Capri writes: "Are u free in the 2nite because I can't go 7 but I really want to see u." Epstein responds, confirming a time. The thread continues across multiple replies, timestamped through the evening of December 14, 2011.
An earlier message in the same chain — sent by Epstein on November 14, 2011 — reads: "when do you I see you.. this is driving me CRAZY."
Document vol00011-efta02694853-pdf, dated November 15, 2011, shows Capri confirming she is in New York City and Epstein proposing a Skype call while traveling.
Travel Logistics Through Epstein's Staff
Document vol00010-efta02174414-pdf, dated February 21, 2012, provides a more operational glimpse. The email chain involves Capri, an Epstein staff member identified as managing logistics, and a contact named Jojo.
Capri had forwarded a Virgin America flight itinerary — booking reference CKPJOI — to what appears to be an Epstein logistics address (ASSIST@HMMLA.COM). A staff member responds: "Super! I have passed the details on to Jojo... he will pick you up from the apart building tomorrow at 5:45am. Jojo's cell number in case you need it is: [redacted]."
Capri replies: "Ok thank you. Have a beautiful day!!!"
The involvement of named logistics staff and a dedicated pickup arrangement reflects the kind of coordinated access that Epstein's operation extended to individuals in his orbit during this period.
Later Correspondence: 2012
Document vol00011-efta02699187-pdf, dated June 3, 2012, shows a brief exchange in which Capri writes that she left belongings at Epstein's apartment and is asking to retrieve them. Epstein's response references "Sue" — likely a staff member — directing Capri to call her.
The message ends: "Noooooo I just left. Call Sue."
Document vol00010-efta01910207-pdf, dated December 17, 2012, is addressed To: Elen Capri, sent from Epstein's account — continuing the pattern of correspondence through the end of 2012.
Context: 854 Documents
The volume of documents in which Capri's name appears — 854 — indicates she is indexed across multiple evidence volumes, suggesting her name surfaced in multiple document types: emails, contact records, and potentially financial or travel records beyond those so far examined.
In one alternate spelling, the archive records her name as "Elen capris" (Document vol00010-efta01886672-pdf, dated September 16, 2012), suggesting OCR variation across different original source documents.
Capri's full name in the archive is also rendered as "Elen de souza ferreira" in at least one sender field (Document vol00011-efta02697310-pdf, February 28, 2012), offering a fuller identification from the underlying email metadata.
The archive does not establish the nature of Capri's relationship with Epstein beyond what the documents themselves show: direct personal correspondence, access to Epstein's logistics network, and a documented presence across hundreds of federal exhibits.
For researchers tracking individuals connected to Epstein during the 2011–2012 period, the Elen Capri document thread — now available through the InvArchives search interface — represents a previously undocumented chapter of the archive.
