This document is the Government's response to a victim's emergency petition under the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA). The Government argues that because no federal charges were filed against Epstein (no 'court proceeding'), the CVRA rights did not fully attach in the way the petitioner claims. The document details the timeline of the 2006-2008 investigation, the negotiations for the Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA), and the Government's 'best efforts' to notify victims' counsel (Brad Edwards) of the state plea hearing on June 27, 2008. It defends the secrecy of the negotiations as necessary to prevent Epstein from impeaching victim witnesses and to secure a provision allowing victims to sue under 18 U.S.C. § 2255.
