1 Judge, is there are incredibly important questions that remain
2 open. The public interest in this matter is obvious from this
3 courtroom. There are conspiracy theories galore. We are all
4 for finding the truth. We believe this court has an
5 indispensable role to play.
6 Whether or not this indictment is dismissed, I think
7 this court has the inherent authority to find out what happened
8 on its watch. Obviously, when the court detained Jeffrey
9 Epstein, the court did not anticipate that weeks later he would
10 be dead in his cell. I think given the inherent authority of
11 the court, the court should make inquiry.
12 This could come in many forms. Obviously the court
13 made inquiry as to what happened in the first incident. When
14 there was an allegation of an attempted suicide, the court made
15 inquiry. The court obviously was interested.
16 I recall your language. You talked about that being
17 one of the several open questions indicating an interest on the
18 court for the others as well. Obviously, the ultimate question
19 is what happened to the client.
20 THE COURT: You're talking about the July 23, 2019
21 incident?
22 MR. WEINGARTEN: Yes.
23 The court obviously could hold hearings. The court
24 could assign a lawyer to help the court. I think this is an
25 area where there is intense public interest. We have complete
