Discusses office strategy: Alex wanted it to stay a state case to provide minimum protections (jail/compensation) and to let Barry Krischer save face.
This document is an internal email thread from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida dated September 17, 2009. The emails discuss media strategy in anticipation of a Palm Beach Post article about the Epstein deal. An Assistant U.S. Attorney clarifies that U.S. Attorney 'Alex' (likely Alexander Acosta) intended the prosecution to remain a state case to allow State Attorney Barry Krischer to 'save face,' while establishing minimum penalties as a 'floor' rather than a ceiling.
