Summary
This document is page 15 of a July 2019 court filing (Case 1:19-cr-00490-RMB) arguing for Jeffrey Epstein's detention. It highlights the severity of the charges (involving minors) and cites research suggesting sex offender recidivism is underreported. Crucially, it details evidence of witness tampering, including 2007 emails regarding a potential guilty plea for obstruction of justice and a 2006 Palm Beach police report where an Epstein representative allegedly threatened a victim, promising compensation for help and retribution for harm.
