Event Details

This document is an Executive Summary of a November 2020 DOJ Office of Professional Responsibility report investigating the 2006-2008 federal handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case by the US Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida. It details the negotiation of the controversial Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) approved by then-US Attorney Alexander Acosta, which allowed Epstein to plead to lesser state charges, and examines the failure of the government to consult with victims under the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA). The report concludes that while Acosta and other attorneys did not commit professional misconduct by definition, Acosta exercised 'poor judgment' in resolving the case via the NPA and the government failed to treat victims with necessary forthrightness.

Defense counsel for Ghislaine Maxwell requests the Court to order the government to disclose the identities of three alleged victims referenced in the indictment to allow for effective investigation of allegations from 25 years ago. Additionally, the defense requests that Maxwell be moved to the general population at the MDC and given increased computer access to review discovery, arguing her current isolation and surveillance are punitive reactions to Jeffrey Epstein's suicide in BOP custody.

This document is a civil complaint filed on November 14, 2019, by Jane Doe 1000 against the executors of Jeffrey Epstein's estate, seeking damages for battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The plaintiff alleges she was recruited in late 1999 under the guise of modeling opportunities for Victoria's Secret, then subjected to years of sexual abuse, manipulation, and trafficking by Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell in New York and Palm Beach. The complaint details Epstein's wealth, his specific properties in NY and NM, his 2008 plea deal, his 2019 arrest and death, and specific instances of abuse involving Maxwell.

This document is the Executive Summary of a DOJ Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) report from November 2020 investigating the conduct of U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta and other prosecutors regarding the 2007 Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) with Jeffrey Epstein. OPR concluded that while Acosta exercised "poor judgment" in resolving the case via the NPA and failing to ensure victims were properly notified, he and his staff did not commit professional misconduct as defined by DOJ standards. The report details the history of the investigation, the secret negotiations, the subsequent violation of the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA), and the eventual fallout leading to Acosta's resignation as Labor Secretary in 2019.
