This document is a formal letter from U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman to Judge Richard Berman arguing two main points following Jeffrey Epstein's death. First, the Government asserts that the indictment must be dismissed (abated) because Epstein died before a conviction became final. Second, the Government argues that the Court lacks the constitutional authority to conduct its own independent investigation into Epstein's suicide, noting that the FBI and DOJ-OIG are already conducting active Grand Jury investigations into the matter.
