This document is an email chain between Assistant U.S. Attorneys dated November 20, 2008, reacting with surprise and anger to the news that Jeffrey Epstein was granted work release. The prosecutors discuss how Epstein's lawyers (Goldberger and Roy) had previously assured them this would not happen. The emails allege that the 'Florida Science Foundation' exists solely to employ Epstein, allowing him to spend his days at his lawyer's office rather than in confinement.
