This document serves as an exhibit in a House Oversight investigation, likely highlighting systemic issues or specific personnel (like Andrew Lourie or Alex Acosta) within the U.S. Attorney's office. While the caption references the Epstein plea deal, the body text details a separate case ('McDaniel') presided over by Judge Zloch, where prosecutors (Villafaña and later Lourie) were criticized for failing to disclose the defendant's predatory history or arguing it was irrelevant. The document illustrates a pattern of prosecutorial conduct regarding sexual abuse cases.
