This document is an email thread between the SDNY US Attorney's Office and the FBI in late November 2018, triggered by the Miami Herald's 'Perversion of Justice' series. The officials discuss opening an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, explicitly stating 'It's trafficking' and determining that the Florida Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) has 'legally... none' effect on their ability to prosecute in New York. They arrange a call to 'determine the way forward' and discuss Statute of Limitations (SOL) issues, referencing the Cosby case.
