A.1 LENGTH: 1126 words HEADLINE: ATTORNEY FOR EPSTEIN VICTIMS: I HAVE NEVER SEEN A STRANGER CASE' BYLINE: MICHELE DARGAN, MICHELE DARGAN, Daily News Staff Writer BODY: Sex offender Jeffrey Epstein could have been charged with multiple counts of five federal offenses involving sex acts with minors and faced a life sentence, but, instead, the government agreed not to prosecute him or his procurers if he spent 18 months in the county jail on two state charges. Those were the details unsealed Frida in a nine- a e federal nom rosecution agreement that lets Epstein and co-conspirators and off the hook for any of those past crimes. "He could have gone to prison for life and somehow he's getting immunity in exchange for nothing? said Fort Lauderdale attorney Brad Edwards, who represents three Epstein victims. "I have never seen a stranger case. To me, it's more spectacular what's not in it. It's the U.S. Attorney's Office saying we'll do everything in our power to see he doesn't get punished." Edwards has been fighting for a year in federal and state court to unseal the agreement. "The non-prosecution agreement raises more questions than it answers," said Miami attorney Adam Horowitz, who represents seven victims. 'Why did all the co-conspirators receive immunity? Why were the victims not consulted re- garding the sentence? Why did he receive such a minimal sentence? The federal deal has remained sealed in Epstein's state court file since he pleaded guilty in June 2008 to state charges of procuring a minor for prostitution and soliciting prostitution. US. Attorney's Office does not comment The federal charges he could have faced were: conspiracy to persuade minor females to engage in prostitution, conspiracy to travel to engage in illicit sexual conduct with minor females, persuading minor females to engage in pros- titution, traveling to engage in illicit sexual conduct with minor females and causing a person under 18 years to engage in sex for money while knowing they are underage. The charges carry various statutory penatities ranging from 10 years to life, with a minimum mandatory of at least 10 years. Alicia Valle, spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in Miami, declined comment. Expert: Feds take few sex-assault cases EFTA00605723

Page 2 ATTORNEY FOR EPSTEIN VICTIMS: 'I HAVE NEVER SEEN A STRANGER CASE' Palm Beach Daily News September 20, 2009 Sunday North Palm Beach criminal defense attorney Barry Maxwell said he is not surprised that federal charges weren't filed. "My experience has been that the federal government does not intervene in sex-assault cases, except if we're deal- ing with a serial rapist or it crosses jurisdictional lines," Maxwell said. "It's either not a big enough case or not atrocious enough for them? Epstein, 56, served 13 months of his 18-month sentence at the Palm Beach County Stockade and received liberal work-release privileges while in jail. He was able to go to his West Palm Beach office six days a week for up to 16 hours a day. He is now serving one year of probation at his Palm Beach mansion and is registered as a lifelong sex offender. Epstein 'fully abided' by deal, says defense Epstein's attorney Jack Goldberger released the following statement: "This document relates to allegations that were made many years ago. It was by its provisions and agreement of the parties to remain confidential in part to protect the identities of collateral third parties. "Mr. Epstein has fully abided by all of its terms and conditions. He is looking forward to putting this difficult peri- od of his life behind him. He is continuing his longstanding history of science philanthropy both here in South Florida and nationwide." Goldberger had blocked the unsealing by filing court papas asking that the documents stay scaled "to prevent a se- rious imminent threat to the fair, impartial and orderly administration of justice; to protect a compelling government interest; to avoid substantial injury to innocent third parties; and to avoid substantial injury to a party by disclosure of matters protected by a common law and privacy right, not generally inherent in these specific type of proceedings, sought to be closed." Circuit Judge Jeffrey Colbath ordered the agreement to be unsealed in June, but Epstein's attorneys appealed the ruling to the Fourth District Court of Appeals, which affirmed Colbath's ruling. Colbath had ruled that the federal agreement — sealed in state court — was improperly sealed. 'I felt it was my fault' More than a dozen lawsuits against the billionaire money manager have been filed in federal and state court, all with similar allegations: that a minor girl was taken to Epstein's mansion on El Brillo Way and led upstairs to a spa room by one of Epstein's assistants, where he would ask the girl to perform massages and/or various sex acts, for which he would pay her. One victim, who is known as Jane Doe #5 in a federal court lawsuit against Epstein, said she didn't find out about the deal until after it was finalized. She was 15 at the time one of her schoolmates told her she could make $200 by giv- ing a massage to a man in Palm Beach. She says she was "nervous and scared and wanted to leave" once she got to Epstein's spa room. "I thought, 'I can't call my dad or my mom because I'm stuck in this situation and didn't know what to do," she said. "I really didn't know what this man was capable of. For a long time, I felt like it was my fault and that's exactly what he wanted me to feel." Epstein has curfew While he is serving the 12 months of house arrest at his Palm Beach home, Epstein must observe a 10 p.m. to 6 a.m, curfew, have no unsupervised contact with anyone younger than 18 and not view, own or possess pornographic or sexual materials. The indictment followed an I I -month investigation by Palm Beach police, who said Epstein paid five underage girls for massages and sometimes sex at his El Braila Way home. Then-State Attorney Barry Krischer declined to pros- ecute Epstein on multiple charges involving unlawful sex acts with minors. Instead, he brought the case to a grand jury, which charged Epstein on the lesser charge of soliciting prostitution. Then-Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter wrote Krischer a letter asking him to remise himself from the case. When that didn't happen, Reiter requested an FBI investigation to determine if any federal laws were broken. EFTA00605724

Page 3 ATTORNEY FOR EPSTEIN VICTIMS: 'I HAVE NEVER SEEN A STRANGER CASE' Palm Beach Daily News September 20, 2009 Sunday 'Out of the ordinary' West Palm Beach criminal defense attorney Gregg Lerman said several aspects of the Epstein case are unusual. "I don't understand why it would be a federal case in this circumstance, and why was there anything in writing at all and why did they seal the agreement? Lerman said. "Why did it go to the grand jury instead of through the gate filing lewd assault charges? That's unusual. And it's very unusual that they structure a plea to get county time rather than prison time. That's definitely out of the ordinary. Nobody goes to county jail as a state criminal punishment" mdargan ®pbdailynews.com GRAPHIC: Caption: Epstein Deal does not allow prosecution of co- conspirators.

A.I LENGTH: 557 words HEADLINE: JUDGE TO RULE ON SEALED PLEA-DEAL PAPERS TODAY BYLINE: MICHELE DARGAN, MICHELE DARGAN. Daily News Staff Writer BODY: A circuit judge will decide today whether the public will be privy to the federal government's non-prosecution deal with Jeffrey Epstein, which was sealed when the convicted sex offender pleaded guilty in June 2008 to two felony counts. Epstein. of Palm Beach, will be released from the Palm Beach County Stockade July 22, after serving less than 13 months of his 18- month sentence for procuring a minor for prostitution and solicitation of prostitution. Teri Barbera, spokeswoman for the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, confirmed his release date Tuesday. Epstein's projected release date had been Sept. 24, hut gain time — which includes his participation in a work-release program — moves the date up to July 22, Barbera said. Epstein, 56, has been in the work-release program since Oct. 10, in which he is allowed out of the stockade six days a week, from I0 a.m. to 10 p.m., to go to his West Palm Beach office, the Florida Science Foundation, monitored by an ankle bracelet and accompanied by a deputy. As part of Epstein's state plea agreement, the U.S. Attorney's Office agreed not to prosecute Epstein on federal charges as long as he fulfills all requirements of his sentence and probation. The federal non-prosecution agreement has been under seal in state court. Epstein's attorney Jack Goldberger filed court papers asking that the documents stay scaled for the following rea- sons: "to prevent a serious imminent threat to the fair, impartial and orderly administration of justice; to protect a com- pelling government interest: to avoid substantial injury to innocent third parties and to avoid substantial injury to a party by disclosure of matters protected by a common law and privacy right, not generally inherent in these specific type of proceedings, sought to be closed." Fort Lauderdale-based attorney Brad Edwards represents three Epstein victims and has asked Circuit Judge Jeffrey Colhath to unseal the federal agreement to the public. An attorney for The Palm Beach Post also has asked that the rec- ords be unsealed. Edwards and his clients have seen the agreement after a federal judge ruled that they are allowed to see it. But that ruling bars Edwards and anyone else who sees the document from disclosing the terms to anyone else. Edwards said he wants to use that document "in the deposition of various material witnesses" relative to his cases. EFTA00605728

Page 2 JUDGE TO RULE ON SEALED PLEA-DEAL PAPERS TODAY Palm Beach Daily News June 25. 2009 Thursday Radaronline.com has reported that Epstein has "secretly been helping the feds unravel a Ponzi scheme" related to the June 2008 indictment of two former managers of Bear Steams Mortgage Investment Fund. Epstein's rep. Howard Rubenstein, confirmed last year that Epstein is "Major Investor No. I" in the indictment, which says he lost about 557 million. Goldberger could not be reached for comment. The Manhattan money manager has been incarcerated since June 30, when he pleaded guilty to the two felony counts. As part of the plea agreement, Epstein must serve one year of house arrest after his release and register as a life- long sex offender. In addition to the criminal case, there are more than a dozen civil lawsuits — both state and federal -- pending against Epstein. All contain similar allegations: Epstein, through his employees and assistants, brought minor girls to his Palm Beach home on El Brillo Way for erotic massages and sometimes sex. mdargangsbdailynews.com GRAPHIC: Caption: Epstein To be released from jail July 22.
