Event Details

This legal document, part of a court filing from July 18, 2019, argues for the pre-trial detention of the defendant, Mr. Epstein. The prosecution asserts that the severity of the charges, which carry a maximum sentence of 45 years, creates a presumption for remand. The document outlines the strength of the evidence, including victim and witness testimony, physical evidence, and reports of witness tampering, and notes Mr. Epstein's prior felony convictions in Florida involving minors.
