Legal Letter (Defense Supplement to Bail Request) • 123 KB
View

Defense counsel Marc Fernich writes to Judge Berman to supplement Jeffrey Epstein's bail request, arguing that the government is incorrectly using Epstein's wealth to create an irrebuttable presumption of detention. The letter highlights that Epstein's brother, Mark, is willing to pledge his >$100 million net worth to secure bond, disputes the government's characterization of an expired Austrian passport, and clarifies Epstein's sex offender registration status in New Mexico. The defense also argues that Epstein did not flee despite intense media pressure in late 2018 and offers a forensic accounting of his finances.
