This document is the Executive Summary of a DOJ Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) report from November 2020 investigating the conduct of U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta and other prosecutors regarding the 2007 Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) with Jeffrey Epstein. OPR concluded that while Acosta exercised "poor judgment" in resolving the case via the NPA and failing to ensure victims were properly notified, he and his staff did not commit professional misconduct as defined by DOJ standards. The report details the history of the investigation, the secret negotiations, the subsequent violation of the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA), and the eventual fallout leading to Acosta's resignation as Labor Secretary in 2019.
This executive summary details an investigation by the Department of Justice's Office of Professional Responsibility into the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case in 2007-2008. It outlines the initial investigation by the Palm Beach Police Department, Epstein's indictment, the referral to the FBI, and the subsequent negotiation and signing of a non-prosecution agreement (NPA) with Epstein, which included conditions like pleading guilty to state charges and victim compensation. The OPR investigated whether prosecutors committed misconduct by failing to consult victims or misleading them.
