Jeffrey Epstein Hired Private Investigators to Intimidate FBI Agents: Officials
(www.rollingstone.com)
I gotta say, it feels like a breach of journalistic ethics bordering on criminal negligence for this article to state that
In 2018, one year after the former U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Alexander Acosta, was appointed as Trump’s Secretary of Labor, The Miami Herald began publishing a sweeping series of investigations alleging that Acosta had engineered an unprecedented and illegal plea deal for Epstein, using emails between Acosta and Epstein’s attorneys to detail how a confoundingly light sentence came to pass. The deal, which Epstein took, allowed him to plead to state charges of soliciting and procuring a minor and paved the way for him to serve time through a work release program, thus evading a potential life sentence and federal charges. He also secured a non-prosecution agreement which barred Epstein’s victims from bringing claims against him while simultaneously shielding his co-conspirators from prosecution.
And somehow fail to mention the name of the Florida state attorney general at the time, because it seems somewhat relevant.
It was Pam Bondi.
