Summary
An email thread from July 2008 between an Assistant U.S. Attorney (Southern District of Florida) and Colonel Gauger (likely PBSO). The prosecutor raises serious concerns about Jeffrey Epstein's work release arrangement, noting that the 'Florida Science Foundation' Epstein claimed to work for was only recently incorporated and located inside his attorney Jack Goldberger's office suite. The AUSA argues that Epstein sitting in his lawyer's office 'web-surfing' and ordering food does not constitute proper imprisonment.

Subject: Epstein Agreement
Dear Colonel Gauger:
Thank you for taking the time to meet with us on Tuesday. As we discussed, I have attached the pertinent portion of Mr. Epstein's agreement with the U.S. Attorney's Office.
<>
I also wanted to call to your attention a couple of items regarding the issue of Work Release. During the change of plea, Mr. Epstein stated that he would be working at the Florida Science Foundation, located at 250 Australian Avenue, Suite 1400, that the Foundation had been in existence for a "couple of years," and that he had been working there "every day" prior to the plea. The Division of Corporations' documents show that the Florida Science Foundation was incorporated in November 2007, not a "couple of years ago." The address provided for the "office" of the Florida Science Foundation is Jack Goldberger's office suite, and neither the office building directory nor the office suite door reflects that such a business is located there, and neither the security guard nor any building tenant that FBI questioned knows of the existence of such a business. Mr. Epstein also could not have been working there "every day" when he hadn't been in Palm Beach County in the past six months.
I would appreciate the opportunity to review the work release regulations. If Mr. Epstein truly is eligible for the program, we have no objection to him being treated like any other similarly situated prisoner, but sitting in his attorney's office suite making telephone calls, web-surfing, and having food delivered to him is probably not in accordance with the objectives of imprisonment. Obviously, the decision is left entirely within your discretion, but I wanted to make sure that you had a complete picture before you made that decision.
Thank you again, and have a wonderful 4th of July.
