It details how federal prosecutors, including Villafaña, Sloman, and Acosta, deliberately withheld written victim notifications until after the plea, based on a prior agreement.

It captures communications showing officials, including Acosta, Villafaña, and Sloman, were concerned about victims losing patience and were contemplating filing charges. Concurrently, it describes a separate legal discussion where USAO supervisors, prompted by an unrelated complaint, affirmed their position that victims' rights under the CVRA are only triggered once formal charges are filed.

DOJ-OGR-00021427.jpg

The document highlights the emotional distress of the victims, Wild's stated willingness to testify, and conflicting accounts from prosecutors about whether the victims truly wanted to proceed with the case.

DOJ-OGR-00021413.jpg

This legal document details the contentious communications in late November and early December 2007 between federal prosecutors (Acosta, Sloman, Villafaña) and Jeffrey Epstein's defense team (Lefkowitz, Starr). The core conflict revolved around the timing, content, and legal necessity of notifying victims about Epstein's upcoming state plea hearing, with the defense arguing for delay and review, and the prosecution asserting its obligations and threatening to void the plea agreement. The dispute involved a series of letters and instructions, highlighting the friction in executing the terms of the Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA).

DOJ-OGR-00021411.jpg

This legal document details communications in late 2007 and 2008 between federal prosecutors (Acosta, Sloman, Villafaña) and counsel for Epstein (Lefkowitz) regarding victim contact and a non-prosecution agreement (NPA). While the FBI continued to investigate and interview new potential victims, the prosecution team decided not to inform victims about the NPA, citing concerns that discussing financial settlements would compromise them as witnesses and create impeachment evidence. The document highlights the internal rationale for limiting victim notification, balancing legal obligations with strategic concerns in the case against Epstein.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00021410.jpg

This document details the complex discussions and objections surrounding victim notification in a legal case, likely involving Epstein, during late 2007. It highlights concerns raised by the FBI and defense attorneys, particularly Lefkowitz, about the implications of direct victim contact, including potential impeachment material, confidentiality breaches, and grand jury secrecy rules. Various parties, including Villafaña, case agents, and the USAO's Professional Responsibility Officer, navigated these issues, with Villafaña also raising ethical concerns about 'cold calling' victims under Florida Bar Rules.

Legal document

DOJ-OGR-00021409.jpg

This document appears to be a page from a Department of Justice Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) report regarding the Epstein investigation. It details the lack of communication between federal agents and victims regarding the Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA), specifically noting that victims were not informed that federal charges were precluded. The text highlights FBI agents' discomfort with the NPA's monetary damages provision, fearing it could be used to impeach victims in court or look like 'offering a bribe'.

DOJ-OGR-00021407.jpg

This document details communications from September 2007 concerning a Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA). Case Agent Villafaña, prosecutors Acosta and Lourie, and defense attorney Lefkowitz discussed how to handle the NPA's disclosure, with a focus on preventing it from becoming public while navigating legal requirements and informing victims. Villafaña also attempted to coordinate the appointment of an attorney representative for the victims and sought guidance on what information could be shared with them and other agents.

Legal document

DOJ-OGR-00021406.jpg

This legal document details the aftermath of the signing of a Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) with Epstein, focusing on the U.S. Attorney's Office's (USAO) failure to notify victims. OPR's Oosterbaan disagreed with the USAO's decision on policy grounds, while USAO's Sloman believed notification was planned for a later date. Ultimately, despite initial plans by case agents to inform victims, Acosta decided to delay notification about the NPA and its monetary provisions until after Epstein's state guilty plea in June 2008, following objections from Epstein's defense counsel and internal concerns.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00021405.jpg

This document is a page from a legal filing, likely an investigative report by the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR), detailing interviews about the failure to notify victims before a Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) was signed. It presents conflicting accounts from key figures like Sloman, Villafaña, and Acosta regarding the USAO's policy on victim consultation under the CVRA for pre-charge resolutions. The text highlights internal disagreement and confusion over the legal obligations to victims, with CEOS Chief Oosterbaan disagreeing with the USAO's stance but not finding it to be an abuse of discretion.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00021404.jpg

This legal document details a factual dispute investigated by the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) concerning the Epstein case. Prosecutor Villafaña claimed her supervisors—Acosta, Sloman, and Menchel—instructed her not to consult with victims about plea negotiations, an instruction they all deny recalling. The document outlines the conflicting testimonies and notes that while OPR could not definitively resolve the disagreement, it found no documentary evidence to support Villafaña's claim of a specific meeting or instruction on this matter.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00021401.jpg

This legal document details investigator Villafaña's account of her interactions with Jeffrey Epstein's victims regarding the resolution of the federal case. Villafaña reported to OPR that victims had varied opinions, with many not wanting to testify or have Epstein prosecuted due to fears about privacy, safety, and public disclosure. Declarations from 2017 by both Villafaña and an FBI case agent corroborate that victims expressed significant concerns and did not uniformly push for prosecution.

DOJ-OGR-00021400.jpg

The document also notes victims' concerns about participating in a federal trial against Epstein.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00021399.jpg

This page from a DOJ OPR report details how prosecutor Villafaña handled victim notification in the Epstein case prior to charges being filed. Villafaña created a custom letter for FBI agents to hand-deliver to victims, outlining their rights under the CVRA, though she claimed this was not intended to formally activate USAO CVRA obligations. The report notes that while Villafaña informed supervisors Lourie and Sloman, the letters were not reviewed by management (including Acosta), who viewed such notifications as routine tasks.

DOJ-OGR-00021396.jpg

This legal document details the FBI's victim notification procedures during the 2006 investigation into Epstein. It describes how, starting in August 2006, the FBI's Victim Specialist, directed by the case agent, used the Victim Notification System (VNS) to send letters to victims informing them of their CVRA rights and the case status. The document also notes the use of pamphlets, such as "Help for Victims of Crime," to explain that the U.S. Attorney's Office would be responsible for ensuring their rights were afforded after an indictment.

The text details various legislative acts from 1982 to 2004 aimed at protecting crime victims.

Government report (opr report)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00021385.jpg

This document details the chaotic final stages of the Jeffrey Epstein non-prosecution agreement (NPA) negotiations in September 2007, highlighting how the absence of key personnel like Menchel, Lourie, and Sloman led to a lack of clear ownership and fragmented decision-making. The text specifically critiques a broad provision in the agreement not to prosecute 'any potential co-conspirators,' noting it was accepted with little discussion despite internal concerns, which ultimately precluded the USAO from prosecuting others involved in Epstein's criminal conduct.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00021383.jpg

This page from an OPR report discusses the handling of the Epstein case, concluding that prosecutors did not intend to benefit Epstein but that the outcome resulted from Acosta's concerns about state authority. It highlights communication failures within the team, noting that while Acosta was unusually involved in decision-making, he was removed from the supervisory chain and may not have been fully aware of critical details known by staff members like Villafaña.
