This is a letter dated August 3, 2007, from U.S. Attorney R. Alexander Acosta to Jeffrey Epstein's attorney, Lilly Ann Sanchez. Acosta formally rejects a proposal from Sanchez, reiterating that a two-year state prison term is the minimum requirement to avoid federal prosecution and is not a starting point for negotiations. The letter clarifies the office's preference for a federal sentence and warns that once an indictment is returned, the possibility for flexible plea negotiations will end.
