This document is Page 8 of a defense filing dated July 16, 2019, addressed to Judge Richard M. Berman. It provides an explanation for a controversial passport carried by Epstein in the 1980s, claiming it was for protection against hijackers in the Middle East.

This document is page 7 of a defense letter to Judge Berman dated July 16, 2019. It addresses two specific points: 1) Refuting Mr. Boies' speculation that payments in late 2018 were to cooperating witnesses, clarifying instead that they were to employees/friends who invoked the Fifth Amendment; and 2) Dismissing the government's concern over an Austrian passport, noting it expired 32 years ago and was never used. The document emphasizes Epstein's religious background in the context of acquiring said passport.

This document is page 6 of a legal filing dated July 16, 2019, addressed to Judge Richard M. Berman. The author asserts that Epstein consistently notified New Mexico official Detective Deborah Anaya of his presence at his residence there. The filing also counters a point made by the judge, arguing against the idea that sex offender recidivism rates increase after 15 years by citing studies suggesting the risk of relapse substantially drops over time for offense-free individuals.

DOJ-OGR-00000449.jpg

This legal document, dated July 16, 2019, is a filing to Judge Richard M. Berman arguing for Jeffrey Epstein's release on bond.

This document is page 3 of a legal filing (Document 24) from July 16, 2019, addressed to Judge Richard M. Berman in the case of United States v. Jeffrey Epstein (Case 1:19-cr-00490). The text argues for the defendant's right to bail, contending that denying bail based on wealth violates the Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, and Fourteenth Amendments. It cites specific case law (Brinson, Afyare, Gardner) to argue that the presumption against release in § 1591 prosecutions is rebuttable.

DOJ-OGR-00000446.jpg

This document is page 2 of a legal filing dated July 16, 2019, addressed to Judge Richard M. Berman. The filing argues against granting release to a defendant named Epstein, asserting that his immense wealth and financial sophistication create an irrebuttable presumption that he is a flight risk. The document quotes previous court transcripts and letters to argue that Epstein could easily transfer assets abroad, become a fugitive, and continue to earn millions, making any conditions of release, including a bond, meaningless.

This document is the first page of a legal letter filed on July 16, 2019, by attorney Marc Fernich to Judge Richard M. Berman regarding the case US v. Epstein. The letter serves to supplement Jeffrey Epstein's request for bail in response to government arguments made the previous day. Fernich argues against the government's reliance on the 'rebuttable remand presumption' connected to 18 USC § 1591 charges, contending in a footnote that the statute does not cover the specific conduct at issue.

DOJ-OGR-00000442.jpg

This legal document, dated July 16, 2019, is a filing from the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York to Judge Richard M. Berman. The prosecution argues for the continued pre-trial detention of the defendant, citing the recent discovery of over $70,000 in cash, 48 loose diamonds, and a large diamond ring in a safe at the defendant's Manhattan residence. The government contends these assets demonstrate the defendant has the capability to flee the jurisdiction and should therefore not be released.

DOJ-OGR-00000441.jpg

This court filing from July 2019 addresses supplemental evidence for Jeffrey Epstein's detention hearing, specifically regarding flight risk.

The document also references a female co-conspirator (protected by the earlier NPA) and other employees who facilitated the trafficking of minors.

DOJ-OGR-00000440.jpg

This is a letter dated July 16, 2019, from the U.S. Attorney's Office to Judge Richard M. Berman in the case against Jeffrey Epstein. The prosecution details two suspicious wire transfers made by Epstein in late 2018, totaling $350,000, to two redacted individuals shortly after the Miami Herald began publishing an exposé on him. One of the recipients is described as a 'potential co-conspirator' from Epstein's 2007 non-prosecution agreement, raising concerns of witness tampering.
