Summary
This document is a printed webpage from the Palm Beach Daily News dated April 7, 2011, reporting on a motion filed by attorneys representing victims (Doe 1 and 2) to invalidate Jeffrey Epstein's non-prosecution agreement. The motion argues the agreement is illegal because the government failed to notify victims as required by the Crime Victim Rights Act, allegedly to protect Epstein due to his political connections. The article includes comments from U.S. Attorney's Office spokesperson Alicia Valle denying CVRA violations because no federal charges were filed.
