Southern District of Florida ("the Office") entered into negotiations to resolve the
investigation. At that time, Mr. Epstein had been charged by the State of Florida with
solicitation of prostitution, in violation of Florida Statutes § 796.07. Mr. Epstein's attorneys
sought a global resolution of the matter. The United States subsequently agreed to defer
federal prosecution in favor of prosecution by the State of Florida, so long as certain basic
