JAMES PATTERSON
Some wait a year before making their way to the courthouse,
their date with the public defender, and an appearance before
the judge. Some get out much sooner, if only they can make bail.
But there’s no bail without money—or at least collateral—and,
of course, being without money is often what lands people in jail
in the first place.
Jeffrey Epstein could have posted bail for every single inmate
in the Gun Club.
But that’s just one of the ways in which Epstein is unlike his
fellow inmates. He’s an admitted pedophile now. Even a famous one.
And, famously, pedophiles tend to fare poorly in jail.
Luckily for Epstein, Ric Bradshaw, the sheriff in charge of
local jails, transfers Epstein to the infirmary, where he spends
exactly one night before being transferred seven miles up the
road to a much smaller, safer location: the Palm Beach County
Central Detention Center—or, as it’s known, the Stockade.
"It’s not somewhere we’d put a serial killer," Ric Bradshaw says.
Most of the residents here are addicts who take part in drug
education programs, prostitutes, petty criminals, and drunks.
It’s a far safer place for Epstein to be, and, unlike other inmates
(except, of course, those being held in solitary), he’ll end up with
his own cell, even his own wing, which he has to himself.
Epstein’s allowed to pay for a security guard, who sits outside the
cell and keeps watch. And he’s allowed any number of visitors.
For a convicted felon, it’s an extraordinary benefits package.
But according to Sheriff Bradshaw, who also oversees the Stock-
ade, Epstein is incredulous over the treatment he is receiving.
"He was astonished that he had to go to prison at all," Brad-
shaw remembers.
"Let’s just say he didn't think he belonged there."
