Summary
This document is a page from a court transcript dated July 24, 2019, concerning a bail proceeding for Mr. Epstein. The speaker discusses the government's arguments for detention, citing a recent search of Epstein's home on the Upper East Side and his arrest. The key point is the government's allegation of witness tampering, supported by evidence of two large payments ($250,000 and $100,000) made to Epstein's associates shortly after a Miami Herald story was published about the case and the role of former U.S. Attorney Mr. Acosta.

And I would like to know from the government
particularly what that information is and whether it would be
feasible -- it certainly would be helpful if there is such
information, that a sample of that evidence in some form be
included in this bail remand proceeding.
Lastly for now, this fifth question. The government
contends that there is evidence of recent what appears to be or
what could be alleged witness tampering or obstruction of
justice in connection with two recent payments, one in the
amount of $250,000 and another in the amount of $100,000 to, as

Epstein's.
Those payments were made soon after a Miami Herald

United States Attorney, Mr. Acosta at the time, and the U.S.
