Summary
This document is page 7 of a government filing opposing Jeffrey Epstein's release on bail, dated July 12, 2019. The prosecution argues that the proposed co-signers (Epstein's brother and a friend, Mr. Mitchell) are insufficient because Epstein could easily financially compensate them for any losses incurred if he fled. Additionally, the government asserts that Epstein's offer to sign a waiver of extradition is legally unenforceable and provides no guarantee that he would return to face justice.

Key Quotes (3)
"The Court cannot possibly evaluate whether there would be any incentive whatsoever for those the two proposed co-signers to exercise moral suasion over the defendant—or whether... the defendant could easily compensate them, perhaps many times over, for any loss they incurred through the defendant’s flight from justice."Source
