Alex. Sent from my BlackBerry Wireless Handheld Original Messag From: Jay Lefkowitz To: Acosta, Alex (US Sent: Sun Sep 23 14:11:57 Confidential communication Alex - I got a call from who said you had rejected our proposal. oes that mean you are not even prepared to have jeffrey commit now to plead to the registerable offense near the end of his 18 month sentence and then be sentenced to 12 month community control for that charge? I thought that was exactly what you proposed friday (although you wanted, but were not able, to do it with some kind of federal charge). But that still gives you a registerable sex offense, 30 months total, and 18 in jail. How can that not satisfy you — while still ensuring that epstein is not unduly endangered in jail? Can you please let me know - by email if not by phone. I am disappointed you did not accept our new proposal today, but that is obviously your prerogative. But what I am suggesting now relates only to issues of safety. The charges, the time, and even the fact of registration is all exactly as you are demanding. Thanks.
