Summary
This document is a printout of a Miami Herald article titled 'Perversion of Justice' by Julie K. Brown, dated November 28, 2018, which details the lenient sentencing and special treatment Jeffrey Epstein received in 2008. It highlights how U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta signed a non-prosecution agreement that shelved a federal indictment, allowing Epstein to serve a short sentence in a private wing of a county stockade with extensive work release privileges. The document appears to be filed as a court exhibit in 2019, bearing a House Oversight Bates stamp.
