Summary
This document is a page from a book, marked as a House Oversight exhibit, written from the perspective of a prosecutor (likely Alexander Acosta) defending the Non-Prosecution Agreement with Jeffrey Epstein. The text argues that the plea deal was necessary due to evidentiary challenges and victim reluctance, while acknowledging that Epstein's lenient treatment in state custody undermined the sentence. It also highlights aggressive defense tactics, including the investigation of prosecutors' private family lives and appeals to Washington, and mentions defense attorneys Lefkowitz and Starr.

"Our judgment in this case... was that it was better to have a billionaire serve time in jail, register as a sex offender, and pay his victims restitution than risk a trial with a reduced likelihood of success."Source
