Summary
This document is page 54 of a court transcript from July 24, 2019, in the case United States v. Jeffrey Epstein. Defense attorney Mr. Weinberg argues for Epstein's release on bail, citing high-profile defendants like Madoff and Skilling who honored their bail conditions and surrendered for prison. The Judge asks if those precedents involved a 'presumption' of detention, which Weinberg admits they may not have, but argues that Epstein's 14-year history of non-danger negates that presumption.

1 eloquently. I've heard the government in different venues,

5 Madoff was released on bail. He surrendered. Dryer
6 called the colossal fraud by Judge Rakoff -- he surrendered and
7 went to jail. Mr. Skilling from the Enron fame went to jail
8 for 24 years.
9 I recently had a case with Judge Furman where the
10 government was arguing for detention that were associated with
11 somebody in a different country. And he granted bail over
12 detention, and those defendants came to court and were
13 sentenced and went to jail.
14 I'm sure there are examples that the government here
15 can point to that certain people that can't comply with
16 conditions. But an enormous amount of people facing detention
17 requests honor their obligations, particularly when conditions
18 are set such as the conditions that Mr. Weingarten,
19 Mr. Fernich, and I have just mentioned to the Court.
20 THE COURT: Of the cases you just mentioned, were any
21 of them presumption cases like this one?
22 MR. WEINBERG: I can't say they are, your Honor, but I
23 do believe that presumption becomes just a factor when the
24 burden of production is negated by in this case the 14 years of
