DOJ File Evidence

Claim A — SUPPORTS (Direct/Verbatim)

EFTA02659289 (Feb 25, 2017) — Email from Deepak Chopra to Jeff Epstein, subject "I have an idea":

"Come to Israel with us. Relax and have fun with interesting people. If you want use a fake name. Bring your girls. It will be fun to have you. Love, Deepak Chopra MD"

This is the verbatim email referenced in the internet research claim. The precise date is February 25, 2017.

Verdict: SUPPORTS — Direct/Verbatim. The DOJ corpus contains the exact email, preserved in full.

Claim B — SUPPORTS (Direct/Verbatim)

EFTA02656821 (Mar 8, 2017) — Email chain between Deepak Chopra and Jeffrey Epstein, subject "Re: The Mind Bleeds Into the World | Edge.org":

Epstein to Chopra: "did you find me a cute israeli?"
Chopra's reply (in the same thread, Mar 8, 2017): "God is a construct. Cute girls are real."
Earlier in the same thread (Chopra to Epstein): "Cute girls are aware when they make noises"

EFTA00651829 (Mar 4, 2017) — Earlier email in the same chain:

Epstein: "find me a cute israeli blonde. . matter over mind"
Chopra: "I can. Warning: They are militant aggressive and v sexy"

The internet research claim accurately represents this exchange. The phrasing "Cute girls are real" appears verbatim in EFTA02656821, in direct reply to Epstein's repeated requests for Chopra to find him an Israeli girl.

Verdict: SUPPORTS — Direct/Verbatim. Both the "Cute girls are real" and "Did you find me a cute Israeli?" elements are confirmed in the DOJ files.

Claim C — NOT FOUND

Chopra's denial and "poor judgment in tone" statement is a public press statement, not a document in the DOJ Epstein Files corpus. No DOJ file contains Chopra's denial or any communication about his public response.

Verdict: NOT FOUND. Absence is expected — this is a media statement, not a DOJ record.

Additional DOJ Evidence (Beyond Stated Claims)

EFTA02387473 / EFTA00458945 (Sep 11–20, 2017) — "INVITATION FOR JEFFREY EPSTEIN" email chain:

Carolyn Rangel (President, Deepak Chopra LLC) coordinated an invitation for Epstein to attend Chopra's appearance with Michael Shermer at Skeptic Magazine's 25th anniversary at YouTube Space NY (September 27, 2017).
Epstein replied: "Me plus 5" — confirming he would bring five guests.
Lesley Groff (Epstein's assistant) responded with the confirmed guest list, including: Karyna Shuliak.
Chopra replied "Done" (EFTA02387473, Sep 13, 2017).

EFTA00458945 also contains a February 8, 2017 email from Lesley Groff arranging for Epstein's driver Janusz to pick up Chopra from the Four Seasons Hotel in Miami to drive him to Epstein's Palm Beach home (358 El Brillo Way) for an overnight stay, with Chopra replying "Perfect. Will stay in touch and come early when done at PBS."

This establishes that Chopra and Epstein had in-person meetings (Palm Beach, February 2017) in addition to the documented email exchanges, and that Chopra participated in coordinating Epstein's social appearances.
