Summary

This legal document, part of a court filing, argues for the pretrial detention of Mr. Epstein. The prosecution contends that a July 2019 search of his New York City mansion uncovered a 'vast trove' of sexually suggestive photographs of young women and girls, which they describe as 'photographic trophies.' This evidence, combined with his 2008 Florida sex crime convictions, is presented to demonstrate that he poses an 'ongoing and forward-looking danger' to the community and should not be released pending trial.

Case 1:19-cr-00490-RMB Document 32 Filed 07/18/19 Page 12 of 33
Mr. Epstein’s future behavior will be consistent with past behavior, including the trove of “lewd photographs of young-looking women or girls,” which were recently uncovered during the July 6-7, 2019, search of Mr. Epstein’s East 71st Street mansion. See Dkt. 11, Ex. 1 at 9. The search results suggest the “possibility that defendant could target another vulnerable victim.” See United States v. Baker, 349 F. Supp. 3d 1113, 1135 (D.N.M. 2018) (where the defendant was alleged to specifically target “vulnerable women” and where he attempted to contact an alleged victim, the court was persuaded that the defendant “would be a danger to society if released”).
Despite having been convicted of the above mentioned (two) Florida sex crimes (in 2008) involving an underage girl, Mr. Epstein, as noted, maintained at his New York residence a “vast trove” of sexually suggestive photographs of nude underage and adult girls. Dkt. 11, Ex. 1 at 9. That is, during the July 6-7, 2019 authorized search of Mr. Epstein’s NYC residence, the FBI found a “substantial collection of photographic trophies of his victims and other young females.” Dkt. 11 at 10. This evidence includes compact discs labeled “Young [Redacted Name] + [Redacted Name],” “Misc nudes 1,” and Girl pics nude.” Id. The Government contends that this evidence includes hundreds or perhaps thousands of “sexually suggestive photographs” of nude underage girls and women, and that it is corroborative in nature. Id. And, it is consistent with victim recollections of the inside of Mr. Epstein’s residence. Dkt. 11, Ex. 1 at 9. This newly discovered evidence also suggests that Mr. Epstein poses “ongoing and forward-looking danger.” See Dkt. 11 at 10; see also Baker, 349 F. Supp. 3d at 1135; United States v. Goodwin, 2015 WL 6386568, at *3 (W.D. Ky. Oct. 21, 2015).
