Details: 
In October 2009, Miami Division opened an obstruction 
of justice case against ALFREDO RODRIGUEZ. RODRIGUEZ was the 
previous house manager and butler to Palm Beach County resident 
JEFFREY EPSTEIN. EPSTEIN was the subject of child prostitution, 
31E matter, worked by Miami Division beginning in 2006. 
Investigation of EPSTEIN revealed that he brought underage girls 
to his home to perform massages and paid them to engage in sex 
acts with himself and one another. The U.S. Attorney's Office 
entered into a non-prosecution agreement with EPSTEIN where 
EPSTEIN pled guilty tO state offenses in Florida state court. 
EPSTEIN was sentenced to a period of state prison followed by 
community supervision as a registered sex offender. EPSTEIN 
completed his community supervision in July 2010. 
EPSTEIN's victims filed suit against EPSTEIN in state 
and federal court seeking damages in civil litigation. During the 
discovery process, RODRIGUEZ was deposed by attorney BRADLEY 
EDWARDS who represented several of the victims. After his 
deposition, RODRIGUEZ contacted EDWARDS and advised that he had 
lists of additional victims that he had not previously disclosed

to law enforcement during the criminal investigation or after 
being served with a subpoena in the civil case. RODRIGUEZ advised he 
would 
not turn the information over to the attorney but 
instead wanted monetary compensation. In November 2009, RODRIGUEZ 
attempted to sell the information to a UCE for $50,000.00, which 
resulted in the above captioned case. 
Approximately three weeks ago, information was provided 
to Miami Division, PBCRA, that ROBERT COUTURIER, an interior 
designer and architect based in New York, was hired by EPSTEIN 
for remodeling and design services at EPSTEIN's residence located 
in the Virgin Islands. COUTURIER reportedly designed a bedroom in 
EPSTEIN's island residence with decor and furniture appropriate 
for teenage girls, with pink furnishings and bunk beds. In 
addition, COUTURIER reported seeing EPSTEIN in the company of 
what appeared to be an underage girl. It is unclear whether the 
underage girl with EPSTEIN was observed at the Virgin Island 
residence or at EPSTEIN's Palm Beach County home. EPSTEIN and 
COUTURIER may be currently involved in civil litigation against 
one another for services COUTURIER provided. 
It is requested that New York Division interview
