Summary
This document is a page from a court transcript of a SORA (Sex Offender Registration Act) hearing dated July 15, 2019. An unnamed speaker, likely counsel for Mr. Epstein, argues that a prior case in Palm Beach, Florida was not prosecuted because the lead prosecutor found the complainants and the police report to be not credible. The speaker further claims that in subsequent civil litigation, the complainants provided sworn testimony disclaiming much of what was in the police report.
