That's six months before the end of his 18-month sentence. The billionaire friend of former Prez Bill Clinton then has 48 hours to register as a sex offender at his $10 million-home on Palm Beach's El Brillo Way. Even more humiliating for the high- finance whir, he's required to give up a saliva DNA sample for the state's database. The 56-year-old then will be on probation for a year and will have to contact his probation officer weekly, according to county records. "He'll be released like everybody else," a jail source said. "He was sleeping at the stockade (near the fair grounds at the western edge of West Palm Beach) but we brought him back to the main jail for the paperwork." Accused of a plethora of sexual shenanigans with underage hookers, Epstein was the target of an 11-month investigation by Palm Beach Police in 2005-06. Detectives even went trash-diving for evidence that Epstein routinely received young girls, some as young as 14, in his home for sex. But with a dream-team of lawyers that included Harvard professor Alan Dershowitz and Ken Starr, a key figure in the Monica Lewinsky case against Clinton, the case dragged on for nearly two years as the then-State Attorney Barry Krischer seemed unsure what to do. htm://www.page2live.com/2009/07/21/freedom-time-for-creepy-billionaire-jefirey-epstein... 7/21/2009 EFTA00261296 Palm Beach & South Florida gossip & celebrity news I Jose Lambiet's Page2Live.com » ...

July 01. 2009 The Fourth District Court of Appeal has agreed to Jeffrey Epstein's request to halt the impending release of his non-prosecution agreement with the federal government. Circuit Judge Jeffrey Colbath had ordered the release of the documents at noon today. The documents were sealed in state court last year when Epstein. a convicted sex offender and billionaire financier. pleaded guilty to two felony charges. Colbrath ruled proper procedures weren't followed in sealing the documents. Now the decision whether to make them public is in the hands of the appellate court, which has given attorneys on both sides of the case a total of 20 days to present their arguments. Epstein's appellate lawyer. Jane Kreusler-Walsh. made an emergency request Wednesday that the appellate court annul the lower court order, saying release of the agreement would cause irreparable harm to her client. Attorneys for women suing Epstein, and a lawyer for The Palm Beach Post, have argued that the public and media should have access to the information and that the victims should be able to use it in their lawsuits. Krcuslcr Walsh would not comment on the Fourth District's order. But Spencer Kuvin. a lawyer for one of the victims, called the decision "frustrating." "The rules shouldn't be different for rich people than they are for poor people," Kuvin said. "Had Epstein been a regular citizen, and not a billionaire. this document would have been made public a long time ago." Epstein pleaded guilty to solicitation of prostitution and procuring teenagers for prostitution. He was sentenced to 18 months incarceration, but is due to get out five months early, on July 22. State and federal authorities said Epstein paid teenage girls for massages and sometimes sex at his Palm Beach home. http://cox.printthis.elickability.com/ptiept?action=ept&title=Appeals+Court+halts+release+... 7/2/2009 EFTA00261300 Appeals Court halts release of Epstein documents Page 2 of 2 Find this article at htlpftweviselmbeechdallynews.conSneviercontentInews/2009/07/01/theorder0701.html K Check the box to include the list of links referenced in the article.

Wrong on the first two, right on the third. Until Friday, the public didn't know the terms of the deal that finalized the case of the Palm Beacher who arranged to have girls brought to his house for sex and massages. Only Epstein's platoon of lawyers, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida and the Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office knew the details. And now we know why the perpetrators of this outrage didn't want the public to know. Post your comments on this story below More from Opinion Editorials. letters, columns and more special features The Opinion Zone Sound off in our blog Share This Story The agreement thus placed the Department of Justice in a role similar to those of the four women who procured girls for Epstein. If there's a precedent in this or any of the other 92 United States attorney's offices, we'd like to hear it. Not surprisingly, R. Alexander Acosta also agreed not to prosecute those women. The deal is an indictment of a system that did much more for a criminal than for his victims. Jeffrey Epstein - officially a registered sex offender but in plain terms a pervert - escaped what should have been serious prison time. Instead, the federal deal allowed him to plead guilty to light charges in state court. He spent just 13 months - nights only - in the Palm Beach County Jail. Meanwhile, the government tried to help Epstein buy off the young girls whom Epstein had exploited. Several of those girls have filed civil suits against Epstein. (Their lawyers and lawyers for The Post sued to make the plea deal public.) In the agreement, the government proposes to identify all the alleged victims and steer them to a lawyer, whose expenses Epstein would pay. In return, however, the victims would withdraw all lawsuits from state court and agree to a settlement in federal court of no more than $150,000 each. Even then, of course, Epstein would not acknowledge any "liability." If the outcome is frustrating, so is the lack of accountability. Mr. Acosta's name is on the deal, but he's now the dean of Florida International University's law school. A call to his office for comment Monday http://palmbeachpost.printthis.clickability.com/pt/cpt?action---cpt&title=EDITORIAL%3A... 9/22/2009 EFTA00261302 EDITORIAL: Sleazy perp, sleazier deal Page 2 of 2 was not returned. The name of Assistant U.S. Attorney A. Marie Villafana is on the deal. She still works as a federal prosecutor in West Palm Beach, but Alicia Valle, the office's special counsel, said in an e- mail, "We cannot comment on your questions." Didn't she really mean will not? This case got into the federal system because former Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter believed that Palm Beach County State Attorney Barry Krischer wasn't moving aggressively enough. Mr. Krischer retired last year. The assistant state attorney who oversaw the case is no longer with the office. At this point, the public must hope that the civil suits suck as much money from Epstein as possible. Money seems to be all that he understands. Also, Jeffrey Sloman is serving as the acting U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Florida until President Obama nominates a permanent replacement for confirmation by the Senate. It would be good to know that whoever follows Mr. Acosta is on record that the Jeffrey Epstein deal did not serve the interests of the United States.

Epstein's attorneys ended the Sept. 2 deposition when opposing attorney Spencer Kuvin asked the question immediately after Epstein stated his name. Kuvin represents B.B., an underage victim of Epstein's alleged sexual abuse. Hafele said Wednesday that Kuvin may ask questions in whatever order he wants and the attorneys can either object or Epstein can invoke his Fifth Amendment right. The judge ordered that the deposition be reset. Epstein, of Palm Beach, served 13 months of an 18-month felony sentence for procuring a minor for prostitution and soliciting prostitution. Now serving one-year of probation in his Palm Beach mansion, Epstein is being sued by more than a dozen young women who were minors at the time they were allegedly sexually abused by Epstein.

That's it. We need know nothing more about this man. His actions were base, ignoble and prurient. He has never shown a scintilla of remorse for his offenses against young girls. (Not women, girls.) Civil society should shun him. Keep your children away. This is your civic duty. Our elected and appointed prosecutors, armed with the immeasurable resources they can bring to a case, failed when they cut Mr. Epstein's deal and set him loose on society. Don't believe for a moment that he served real time: a work-release program permitted him to walk out of the Palm Beach County Stockade six of every seven days during his sentence. And because he was on work release he was awarded gain time, reducing the 18 months to 13. That is a crime. While his deal with prosecutors, made public about a week ago, is silent on this matter, rumor has it Mr. Epstein is helping the feds. The talk runs the gamut: he may be talking to the FBI, IRS or SEC, unraveling a major Ponzi scheme, or testifying against a highly placed elected official. But even if this is true, it wouldn't make up for what he did to his victims. Even if he were now helping the country find Osama Bin Laden, Mr. Epstein's punishment should have been much more harsh. Former Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter and his department stand alone in trying to uphold justice in this case. Without their dogged pursuit of the evidence and Mr. Reiter's push for Mr. Epstein's prosecution, he could still be plying his sexually deviant behavior with impunity. Read all the public documents in Mr. Epstein's criminal case. Then, when you are thoroughly disgusted, let the officials know they did a horrific job in protecting children. Yes, children. It was their civic duty, but they failed.

And because he was on work release he was awarded gain time, reducing the 18 months to 13. That is a crime. While his deal with prosecutors, made public about a week ago, is silent on this matter, rumor has it Mr. Epstein is helping the feds. The talk runs the gamut: he may be talking to the FBI, IRS or SEC, unraveling a major Ponzi scheme, or testifying against a highly placed elected official. But even if this is true, it wouldn't make up for what he did to his victims. Even if he were now helping the country find Osama Bin Laden, Mr. Epstein's punishment should have been much more harsh. Former Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter and his department stand alone in trying to uphold justice in this case. Without their dogged pursuit of the evidence and Mr. Reiter's push for Mr. Epstein's prosecution, he could still be plying his sexually deviant behavior with impunity. Read all the public documents in Mr. Epstein's criminal case. Then, when you are thoroughly disgusted, let the officials know they did a horrific job in protecting children. Yes, children. It was their civic duty, but they failed.

In spite of vigorous opposition from Epstein's highly skilled, highly paid legal team, the court affirmed Judge Jeffrey Colbath's earlier order to unseal the billionaire's plea deal with prosecutors In exchange for Epstein's admission of guilt to charges of procuring teenage girls for acts of prostitution, he was sentenced to 18 months in jail. The plea agreement, which caused sentencing judge Deborah Pucillo to shake her head in amazement, allowed Epstein to serve his sentence at the Palm Beach County jail rather than state prison; allowed him extensive time out of the facility for work release; and was sealed from public view.

Attorneys representing Epstein's victims in civil lawsuits, as well as attorneys for The Palm Beach Post, successfully asked Colbath to unseal the plea agreement. Epstein's lawyers, in turn, sought the intervention of the appeals court. The next move belongs to Epstein's legal team, who have have 15 days to ask the appeals court for a re-hearing. • More from our partners at PalmBeachPostcom • More on Epstein case from Shiny Sheet Permalink I Comments (0) I Post your comment I Comments Commenting is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. M-F Post a comment Name: Remember me?

Jeffrey Epstein reported- ly owned the largest private residence in Manhattan and the largest private residence in New Mexico. Jeffrey Epstein bid $36 million for a 43,000- square-foot estate in Palm Beach. He didn't get it be- cause Donald Trump outbid him — $11 million. Too bad, but Jeffrey Epstein still can knock around in his 14,000- square-foot cottage in Palm Beach. More about that place later. Jeffrey Epstein has flown Bill Clinton around on his private plane. Jeffrey Epstein isn't bad- looking for a 56-year-old guy. As a 57-year-old guy, I'm sen- sitive to these things. But even if Jeffrey Epstein looked like Jeffrey Dahmer, you figure that with his re- sume he could find all kinds of great-looking 30-year-old women. If he wanted to stretch it, he could find 25- year-old women willing to cross that three-decade gap. Instead, Jeffrey Epstein wanted girls. The younger the better, according to a Palm Beach police investi- gation. He was willing to pay them. He had other women arrange the hookups. The girls would come to that house on Palm Beach and take $200 or $300 to give Jeffrey Epstein massages. Sometimes, the girls would be naked. Sometimes, the girls told investigators, they had sex with Epstein. Now, if you are 56 and look like Jeffrey Dahmer and you live in a two-bedroom house in Lake Worth and you pay girls for such ... dates and Randy Schultz the cops investigate, things don't end well. If you are Jef- frey Epstein, your posse of lawyers includes the special prosecutor in the Monica Lewinsky case. You beat a federal rap and get a state plea deal that comes with an 18-month sentence, which you get to serve in the county jail instead of state prison, even if you are also labeled a sex offender. You have to be in jail only at night. And when you walk out for the last time, as Jeffrey Epstein did before dawn July 22, one of your attorneys, Jack Goldberger, says, "There was never any victims." No victims? Then why did Jeffrey Epstein plead guilty to felony of solicita- tion of prostitution and pro- curing a person under the age of 18 for prostitution? , "I wasn't talking about the victims in the criminal case," Mr. Goldberger said. He is Epstein's lead local attorney. In an interview last week, he said that he was referring only to the girls/women who have filed lawsuits against Epstein. Mr. Goldberger blamed his comment on the early hour. ' Nevertheless, Mr. Gold- berger and the other attorneys put the girls on triaL The legal team got former Palm Beach County State Attorney Barry Krischer to back off early by showing him comments that the girls had made online about using sex and alcohol. Gee, there's a flash: Teen- age girls who would take money over and over to give a 50-ish weirdo kinky massages have issues. Obviously, Epstein and his recruiters sought out such girls. Meanwhile, the attor- neys tried to shift responsi- bility from predator to prey. I wanted to talk with those esteemed attorneys. Kenneth Starr, whose report led to Bill Clinton's impeach- ment, is dean of Pepperdine University Law School in Malibu, Calif The school's mission statement advertis- es its "Christian emphasis." So why would Mr. Starr rep- resent such a sleazebag? A school spokesman said Mr. Starr, who is traveling in Israel, "has decided not to comment at this time." So the man can produce a 154-page report detailing every sexual moment between Bill Clinton and one female who was past the age of consent but won't explain why he lobbied the Justice Department on be- half of a man who repeatedly misused many females? Another A-list member of the legal team is Alan Der- showitz, the Harvard Law School professor who has his own Web site with a link to "multimedia." I e-mailed him and got this response: "Please send me a complete list of questions and I will consider responding in writ- ing." I did. If he considered. he didn't respond. But to be clear, there were victims. Some may not real- ize it for years. And still an- other victim is the system, which showed itself again to be up for sale. You don't have to wait to realize that. Randy Schultz is the editor of the editorial page of The Palm Beach Post.
