Attorney Edwards’ other client, ‘T.M., was represented by counsel and, accordingly, all contact with T.M. was made through that attorney. That attorney was James Eisenberg, and his fees were paid by Jeffrey Epstein, the target of the investigation.’ 5, In the summer of 2007, Mr. Epstein and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida (“the Office”) entered into negotiations to resolve the investigation. At that time, Mr. Epstein had been charged by the State of Florida with solicitation of prostitution, in violation of Florida Statutes § 796.07. Mr. Epstein’s attorneys sought a global resolution of the matter. The United States subsequently agreed to defer federal prosecution in favor of prosecution by the State of Florida, so long as certain basic preconditions were met. One of the key objectives for the Government was to preserve a federal remedy for the young girls whom Epstein had sexually exploited. Thus, one condition of that agreement, notice of which was provided to the victims on July 9, 2008, is the following: “Any person, who while a minor, was a victim of a violation of an offense enumerated in Title 18, United States Code, Section 2255, will have the same rights to proceed under Section 2255 as she would have had, if Mr. Epstein *The undersigned does not know when Mr, Edwards began representing T.M. or whether T.M. ever formally terminated Mr. Eisenberg’s representation. ie 09/12/2019 Agency to Agency Requet: 19-411 CONFIDENTIAL SDNY_GM_00331518 DOJ-OGR-00004700
