Summary
This document is a printout of a November 2018 Miami Herald article by Julie K. Brown, filed as an exhibit in a 2019 court case and marked with a House Oversight Committee stamp. The article details Jeffrey Epstein's 2008 sentencing, where despite facing a potential federal life sentence for abusing underage girls, he received a lenient 18-month state sentence due to a non-prosecution agreement signed by U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta. It highlights the extraordinary privileges Epstein received during incarceration, including work release for 12 hours a day and a private jail wing.
