Summary
This document is a page from an Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) report reviewing the government's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case, specifically regarding the 2008 Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA). OPR concludes that while the failure to notify victims about the NPA did not constitute professional misconduct (citing strategic concerns about impeachment evidence), the lack of transparency and inconsistent messaging mistreated victims and damaged public confidence. The report states that victims were not treated with the sensitivity expected by the Department of Justice, leading to perceptions of collusion between the government and Epstein's counsel.
