This document is an FBI form containing an August 4, 2006, editorial from The Palm Beach Post by Elisa Cramer, which is highly critical of the state attorney's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case. Cramer argues that Epstein, 53, should have faced charges for sex with minors (ages 14-17) rather than a single solicitation charge, questioning the decision to offer a plea deal and not proceed to a jury trial. The article highlights evidence that Epstein knew the girls' ages, his defense team's tactics to discredit victims, and raises concerns about a two-tiered justice system for the wealthy.
