Summary
This document is a reprint of a Palm Beach Post editorial dated August 10, 2006, titled 'Massaging the system.' It heavily criticizes State Attorney Barry Krischer for referring the Jeffrey Epstein case to a grand jury rather than prosecuting directly, suggesting favoritism toward the wealthy defendant. The text details police findings, including payments to minors and physical evidence (school transcripts) found in Epstein's trash that contradicted his defense claims of ignorance regarding the victims' ages.
