Summary
This legal document, filed on July 18, 2019, outlines the U.S. Government's argument against granting pretrial release to the defendant, Mr. Epstein. The Government asserts he is an extraordinary flight risk due to his wealth, access to private planes, and the long potential prison sentence he faces. The document also provides background on Epstein's past legal issues, including a 2005 investigation, a 2007 non-prosecution agreement, and a 2008 guilty plea in Florida, contrasting the prosecution's view with the defense's claim that Epstein is not a flight risk.

The Government also provides the following background information: “In or about 2005,
the defendant was investigated by local police in Palm Beach, Florida, in connection with
allegations that he had committed similar sex offenses against minor girls. The investigation
ultimately also involved federal authorities, namely the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern
District of Florida and the FBI’s Miami Office, and included interviews with victims based in the
Palm Beach area, including some of the alleged victims relevant to Count One of the instant
Indictment. In the fall of 2007, the Defendant entered into a non-prosecution agreement (“NPA”)
with the Southern District of Florida in connection with the conduct at issue in that investigation,
which the non-prosecution agreement identified as including investigations into the defendant’s
abuse of minor girls in the Palm Beach area.” Id. at 3. “In June 2008, the defendant pled guilty in
[Florida] state court to one count of procuring a person under the age of 18 for prostitution, a
felony, and one count of solicitation of prostitution, [also] a felony. As a result, the defendant
was designated as a sex offender with registration requirements under the national Sex Offender
Registration and Notification Act.” Id.
