F.2d 765 (7th Cir. 1985)). The Court finds that the Government has shown by a preponderance
of the evidence that Mr. Epstein is a flight risk.
The factors to be considered in analyzing risk of flight are the same factors that apply
when analyzing dangerousness. They are: (1) the nature and circumstances of the crimes
charged; (2) the weight of the evidence against the defendant; (3) the history and characteristics
of the defendant, including the person’s character and financial resources; and (4) “the
seriousness of the danger posed by the defendant’s release.” 18 U.S.C. § 3142(g). “The weight
afforded to each factor under section 3142(g) is within the ‘special province’ of the district
court.” Paulino, 335 F. Supp. at 610.
