Summary
This document is a July 16, 2019 letter from the U.S. Department of Justice to Judge Richard Berman providing additional evidence to support Jeffrey Epstein's detention pending trial. It details suspicious wire transfers totaling $350,000 to potential co-conspirators shortly after the Miami Herald published articles about Epstein in late 2018. The letter also discloses the seizure of a foreign passport with a false name but Epstein's photo, over $70,000 in cash, and 48 loose diamonds from a safe in his Manhattan home, arguing these items demonstrate a significant flight risk.
