Epstein's lawyer returned exactly what was in the safe. They were labled as pron, and there were dozens of other CDs in the apartment that have clean chain of title. Obviously that is not clear chain of title for the CDs, but there are more questions that would be cleared up if you read the transcripts.

The part I'm not finding is what the lawyer's explanation is for having taken them. Since the agent knew exactly who to call and got them back in 20 minutes, it seems like there was some reason the lawyer was actually able to take them.

The FBI agent said officers broke open the safe with a saw, finding the CDs, jewellery, computer hard drives, "loose diamonds", passports and “large amounts of US currency.”

They took photographs of the items, but left them at the residence as they did not have the warrant to remove them. When they returned four days later, on July 11, they were no longer there.

Agent Maguire, a member of an FBI Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force, said she then called Richard Kahn, Epstein’s lawyer who now serves as the executor of the later financier’s estate, to ask what happened to the items.

“Twenty to thirty minutes after the conversation, Richard Kahn came to the residence and brought them items back in two suitcases,” Agent Maguire said.

She could not confirm the content on the returned CDs was the same as the ones that were taken, but confirmed all the items were accounted for.
