Attorney Jeffrey Herman sends a cease and desist letter to Assistant U.S. Attorney Ms. Villafaña on September 16, 2008. Herman alleges that the U.S. Attorney's office sent letters to sexual assault victims on September 2, 2008, that violated Florida Bar rules by soliciting clients for another attorney, Mr. Josefsberg, and providing misleading information about waiving damage claims against Jeffrey Epstein. Herman demands the U.S. Attorney stop contacting his clients directly and correct the misleading statements sent to unrepresented victims.
This document details discussions and events surrounding the settlement process for victims related to Epstein. It highlights disagreements between Lefkowitz and Villafaña regarding victim communication and legal procedures, and records meetings and email exchanges between Acosta, Sloman, and Lefkowitz concerning an addendum to a Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) and a breakfast meeting in West Palm Beach in October 2007.
This page from a DOJ OPR report details the conflict and confusion regarding victim notification in the Epstein case. It highlights discrepancies between USAO officials (Sloman, Acosta) and DOJ Criminal Division (Mandelker) regarding who decided to defer victim notification to state authorities. It also includes excerpts from Epstein's lawyer, Lefkowitz, aggressively arguing that federal victims had no standing in the state case and should not be contacted by the FBI or informed of 'fictitious rights.'
