Document Summary

This document, likely an OPR report, details internal DOJ discussions from May 2007 regarding the prosecution strategy for Jeffrey Epstein. It reveals Prosecutor Lourie's preference for a pre-indictment plea deal to avoid the risk of a judge rejecting the deal after seeing the full scope of Epstein's crimes in an indictment. The document includes an email from Lourie to Marie Villafaña suggesting a strategic indictment using only 'unknown' victims to scare the defense, while holding back victims with potential impeachment issues (referenced as 'myspace pages') for a later superseding indictment.
