Summary
This document is page 12 of a transcript from a SORA (Sex Offender Registration Act) hearing filed on July 15, 2019. The dialogue involves a judge, prosecutor Ms. Gaffney, and defense attorney Ms. Musumeci discussing why Jeffrey Epstein must register as a sex offender in New York despite the specific acts (relations with a 17-year-old) not being registrable offenses under NY law; the requirement stems from reciprocity with his Florida offense. The Judge remarks that Epstein must register every 90 days or 'give up his New York home.'
