Summary
This document is an editorial from The Palm Beach Post dated November 16, 2007, criticizing the potential plea deal for Jeffrey Epstein. It details how Epstein, accused of paying underage girls for sex, employed a high-profile legal team including Alan Dershowitz and Kenneth Starr to negotiate a deal expected to result in 18 months jail time and sex offender registration, resolving charges from a 2006 indictment. The article expresses concern that Epstein's wealth is allowing him to manipulate the justice system and avoid more serious consequences.
