Summary
This document is a printout of a Miami Herald article (filed as a court exhibit) detailing how Jeffrey Epstein was granted work release by the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office despite policies prohibiting such privileges for sex offenders. Spokeswoman Therese Barbera defended the decision, claiming Epstein met the criteria, while Sheriff Ric Bradshaw refused to comment on the special treatment or the money Epstein paid the office for private details. The document highlights the contradiction between the Sheriff's official policy and the actual treatment Epstein received.
