Regions Financial Tower 1555 Palm Beach Lakes Boulevard, Suite 600 West Palm Beach, FL 33401 Re: Edwards, Bradley adv. Epstein Our File No.: 291874 . Dear Mr. Capp: Despite the total absence of competent evidence to demonstrate that Bradley Edwards participated in any fraud against Jeffrey Epstein, and in the face of uncontrovertible evidence demonstrating the propriety of every aspect of Edwards’ involvement in the prosecution of legitimate claims against Epstein, Epstein sued Bradley Edwards. Epstein sexually abused three clients of Edwards — L.M., E.W., and Jane Doe — and Edwards properly and successfully represented them in a civil action against Epstein. Nothing in Edwards’s capable and competent representation of his clients provided any basis for a civil lawsuit against him, but the facts did not deter Epstein from engaging in what was a blatant effort to extort Bradley Edwards, utilizing the nearly limitless resources of a vengeful opponent. The extortion failed but the vengeful assault by Epstein continues. Epstein’s action against Edwards essentially alleged that Epstein was damaged by Edwards, acting in concert with Scott Rothstein (President of the Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler law firm (“RRA”) where Edwards worked for a short period of time). Epstein alleged that Edwards joined Rothstein in the abusive prosecution of sexual assault cases against Epstein to “pump” the cases to Ponzi scheme investors. As described by Epstein, investor victims were told by Rothstein that three minor girls who were sexually assaulted by Epstein: L.M., E.W., and Jane Doe were to be paid up-front money to prevent those girls from settling their civil cases against Epstein. In Epstein’s view, these child sexual assault cases had “minimal value” (Complaint & j \ .
