NOTIFICATION OF IDENTIFIED VICTIMS 
On June 30, 2008, Jeffrey Epstein (hereinafter referred to as "Epstein) entered a plea 
of guilty to violations of Florida Statutes Sections 796.07 (felony solicitation of prostitution) 
and 796.03 (procurement of minors to engage in prostitution), in the 15th Judicial Circuit in 
and for Palm Beach County (Case Nos. 2006-cf-009454AXXXMB and 2008-cf-
00938 IAXXXMB) and was sentenced to a term of twelve months' imprisonment to be 
followed by eighteen months' of Community Control I, the first six months of which must 
be served imprisoned at the Palm Beach County Detention Facility. 
In light of the entry of the guilty plea and sentence, the United States has agreed to 
defer federal prosecution in favor of this state plea and sentence, subject to certain 
conditions. 
One such condition to which Epstein has agreed is the following: 
"Any person, who while a minor, was a victim of a violation of an offense 
enumerated in Title 18, United States Code, Section 2255, will have the same 
rights to proceed under Section 2255 as she would have had, if Mr..Epstein 
had been tried federally and convicted of an enumerated offense. For purposes 
of implementing this paragraph, the United States shall provide Mr. Epstein's 
attorneys with a list of individuals whom it was prepared to name in an 
Indictment as victims of an enumerated offense by Mr. Epstein. Any judicial 
authority interpreting this provision, including any authority determining 
which evidentiary burdens if any a plaintiff must meet, shall consider that it is 
the intent of the parties to place these identified victims in the. same position 
as they would have been had Mr. Epstein been convicted at trial. No more; no 
less."

Dear Ms.IIM: 
VIA CERTIFIED MAIL 
RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED 
7007 2680 0002 5519 8503 
As you are aware, we represent several of the young girls that were victimized 
and abused by Jeffrey Epstein. While we are aware of his recent guilty plea and 
conviction in his State Court case, the sentence imposed in that case is grossly inadequate 
for a sexual predator of this magnitude. The information and evidence that has come to 
our attention in this matter leads to a grave concern that justice will not be served in this 
cause if Mr. Epstein is not aggressively prosecuted and appropriately punished. Based on 
our investigation and knowledge of this case, it is apparent that he has sexually abused 
more than 100 underage girls, and the evidence against him is overwhelmingly strong. 
As former Assistant State Attorneys with seven years' prosecution experience, we 
believe that the evidence against Mr. Epstein is both credible and deep and that he may 
be the most dangerous sexual predator of children that our country has ever seen. The 
evidence suggests that for at least 4 years he was sexually abusing as many as three to 
four girls a day. It is inevitable that if he is not confined to prison, he will continue to 
manipulate and sexually abuse children and destroy more lives. He is a sexual addict that 
focused all of his free time on sexually abusing children, and he uses his extraordinary 
wealth and power to lure in poor, underprivileged little girls and then also uses his wealth 
to shield himself from prosecution and liability. We are very concerned for the health 
and welfare of the girls he has already victimized, and concerned that if justice is not 
properly served now and he is not imprisoned for a very long time, he will get a free pass 
to sexually abuse children in the future. Future abuse and victimization is obvious to 
anyone who really reviews the evidence in this case, and future sexual abuse of minors is 
inevitable unless he is prosecuted, tried and appropriately sentenced. Money and power 
should not allow a man to make his own laws, and he has clearly received preferential 
treatment at every step up to this point. If he were a man of average wealth or the abused 
girls were from middle or upper class families, then this man would spend the rest of his 
life in prison. In a country of true, blind justice, those distinctions are irrelevant, and we 
really hope he does not prove the point that a man can commit heinous crimes against 
children and buy his way out of it. 
If the Department of Justice's recent commitment to the protection of our children 
from child molesters is to be more than rhetoric, then this is the time and the case where 
the Department must step forward. We urge the Attorney General and our United States

Ili Jason - Sorry we missed each other today. I wanted to inform you and (through you) your clients. of the 
resolution of the federal investigation of Mr. Epstein. Ile plead guilty today in state court to one charge of 
felony solicitation of prostitution and one charge of procurement of minors to engage in prostitution. Ile 
received 18 months' imprisonment to be followed by 12 months of community control with home confinement. 
Ile also must register as a sex offender for the remainder of his life. 
Ilis agreement with the U.S. Attorney's Office also required him to make ccnain concessions regarding possible 
civil suits brought by the victims. I was hoping to discuss this with you over the telephone. I also wanted to 
confirm the names of the victims whom you represent, and I wanted to see if you arc in a position either to 
represent the victims in connection with such litigation or if you can refer them to someone who could perform 
that task. if the victims ask for recommendations. 
Let's talk tomorrow in more detail. Thank you.

Re: 
Jeffrey Epstein 
Dear Jay: 
SOO S. AultrallanAve, Ste 400 
West Palm Beach FL 3340) 
December 13, 2007 
I am writing not to respond to your asserted "policy concerns" regarding Mr. Epstein's Non-
Prosecution Agreement, which will be addressed by the United States Attorney, but the time has 
come for me to respond to the ever-increasing attacks on my role in the investigation and 
negotiations. 
It is an understatement to say that I am surprised by your allegations regarding my role 
because I thought that we had worked very well together in resolving this dispute. I also am 
surprised because I feel that I bent over backwards to keep in mind the effect that the agreement 
would have on Mr. Epstein and to make sure that you (and be) understood the repercussions of the 
agreement. For example, I brought to your attention that one potential plea could result in no gain 
time for your client; I corrected one of your calculations of the Sentencing Guidelines that would 
have resulted in Mr. Epstein spending far more time in prison than you projected; I contacted the 
Bureau of Pri sons to see whether Mr. Epstein would be eligible for the prison camp that you desired; 
and I told you my suspicions about the source of the press "leak" and suggested ways to avoid the 
press. Importantly, I continued to work with you in a professional manner even after I learned that 
you had been proceeding in bad faith for several weeks — thinking that X had incorrectly concluded 
that solicitation of minors to engage in prostitution was a registrable offense and that you would 
"fool" our Office into letting Mr. Epstein plead to a non-registrable offense. Even now, when it is 
clear that neither you nor your client ever intended to abide by the terms of the agreement that he 
signed, I have never alleged misconduct on your part. 
The first allegation that you raise is that I "assiduously" hid from you the fact that Bert 
Ocariz is a friend of my boyfriend and that I have a "longstanding relationship" with Mr. Ocariz.

JAY P. LEFKOWITZ, ESQ. 
DECEMBER 13,2007 
PAGE 2 OF 5 
I informed you that I selected Mr. Ocariz because he was a friend and classmate of two people 
whom I respected, and that I had never met or spoken with Mr. Ocariz prior to contacting him about 
this case. All of those facts are true. I still have never met Mr. Ocariz, and, at the time that he and 
I spoke about this case, he did not know about my relationship with his friend. You suggest that I 
should have explicitly informed you that one of the referrals came from my "boyfriend" rather than 
simply a "friend," which is the term I used, but it is not my nature to discuss my personal 
relationships with opposing counsel. Your attacks on me and on the victims establish why I wanted 
to find someone whom I could trust with safeguarding the victims' best interests in the face of 
intense pressure from an unlimited number of highly skilled and well paid attorneys. Mr. Ocariz 
was that person. 
One of your letters suggests a business relationship between Mr. Ocariz and my boyfriend. 
This is patently untrue and neither my boyfriend nor I would have received any financial benefit 
from Mr. Ocariz's appointment. Furthermore, after Mr. 0cariz learned more about Mr. Epstein's 
actions (as described below), he expressed a willingness to handle the case pro Bono, with no 
financial benefit even to himself. Furthermore, you were given sevirither options to choose from, 
including the Podhurst firm, which was later selected by Judge 
. You rejected those other 
options. 
You also allege that I improperly disclosed information about the case to Mr. Ocariz. 
provided Mr. Ocariz with a bare bones summary of the agreement's terms related to his appointment 
to help him decide whether the case was something he and his firm would be willing to undertake. 
I did not provide Mr. Ocariz with facts related to the investigation because they were confidential 
and instead recommended that he "Google" Mr. Epstein's name for background information. When 
Mr. Ocariz asked for additional information to assist his firm in addressing conflicts issues, 
forwarded those questions to you, and you raised objections for the first time. I did not share any 
further information about Mr. Epstein or the case. Since Mr. Ocariz had been told that you 
concurred in his selection, out of professional courtesy, I informed Mr. Ocariz of the Office's 
decision to 
pecial Master to make the selection and told him that the Office had made contact 
with Jude 
We have had no further contact since then and I have never had contact with 
Judge 
. I understand from you that Mr. Ocariz contacted Judge 
You critic' alis 
decision to do so, yet you feel that you and your co-counsel were entitled to contact Judge 
to 
try to "lobby" him to select someone to your liking, despite the fact that the Non-Prosecution 
Agreement vested the Office with the exclusive right to select the attorney representative. 
Another reason for my surprise about your allegations regarding misconduct related to the 
Section 2255 litigation is your earlier desire to have me perform the role of "facilitator" to convince 
the victims that the lawyer representative was selected by the Office to represent their interests alone 
and that the out-of-court settlement of their claims was in their best interests. You now state that 
doing the same things that you had asked me to do earlier is improper meddling in civil litigation. 
Much of your letter reiterates the challenges to Detective Recarey's investigation that have

DECEMBER I3, 2007 
PAGE 3 or 5 
already been submitted to the Office on several occasions and you suggest that I have kept that 
information from those who reviewed the proposed indictment package. Contrary to your 
suggestion, those submissions were attached to and incorporated in the proposed indictment 
package, so your suggestion that I tried to hide something from the reviewers is false. I also take 
issue with the duplicity of stating that we must accept as true those parts of the Recarey reports and 
witness statements that you like and we niust accept as false those parts that you do not like. You 
and your co-counsel also impressed upon me from the beginning the need to undertake an 
independent investigation. It seems inappropriate now to complain because our independent 
Investigation uncovered facts that are unfavorable to your client. 
You con-plain that I "forced" your client and the State Attorney's Office to proceed on 
charges that they do not believe in, yet you do not want our Office to inform the State Attorney's 
Office of facts that support the additional charge nor do you want any of the victims of that charge 
to contactMs. Belohlavek or the Court. Ms. Belohlavek' s opinion may change if she knows the MI 
scope of your client's actions: You and I spent several weeks trying to identify and put together a 
plea to federal charges that your client was willing to accept. Yet your letter now accuses me of 
"manufacturing" charges of obstruction of justice, making obscene phone calls, and violating child 
privacy laws. When Mr. Lourie told you that those charges would "embarrass the Office," he meant 
that the Office was unwilling to bend the facts to satisfy Mr. Epstein's desired prison sentence — a 
statement with which I agree. 
I hope that you understand how your accusations that I imposed "ultimatums" and "forced" 
you and your client to agree to unconscionable c ntract terms ca not square with the true facts of 
this case. As explained in letters from Messrs. 
and 
the indictment was postponed 
for more than five months to allow you and Mr. Epstein's other attorneys to make presentations to 
the Office to convince the Office not to prosecute. Those presentations were unsuccessful. As you 
mention in your letter, I—a simple line AUSA —handled the primary negotiations for the Office, and 
conducted those negotiations with you, Ms. Sanchez, Mr. Lewis, and a host of other highly skilled 
and experienced practitioners. As you put it, your group has a "combined 250 years experience" to 
my fourteen. The agreement itself was signed by Mr. Epstein, Ms. Sanchez, and Mr. Lefcourt, 
whose experience speaks for itself. You and I spent hours negotiating the terms, including when to 
use "a" versus "the" and other minutiae. When 
and ta
t realsement, you repeatedly 
went over my head, involving Messrs. Lourie, 
, and 
in the negotiations at 
various times. In any and all plea negotiations the defendant understands that his options are to 
plead or to continue with the investigation and proceed to trial. Those were the same options that 
were proposed to Mr. Epstein, and they are not "persecution or intimidation tactics." Mr. Epstein 
ohose to sign the agreement with the advice of a multitude of extremely noteworthy counsel. 
You also make much of the fact that the names of the victims were not released to Mr. 
Epstein prior to signing the Agreement. You never asked for such a term. During an earlier 
meeting, where Mr. Black was present, he raised the concern that you now voice. Mr. Black and 
I did not have a chance to discuss the issue, but I had already conceived of a way to resolve that

issue if it were raised during negotiations. AS I stated, it was not, leading me to believe that it was 
not a matter of concern to the defense. Since the signing of the Non-Prosecution Agreement, the 
agents and I have vetted till list of victims more than once. In one instance, we decided to remove 
a name because, although the minor victim was touched inappropriately by Mr. Epstein, we decided 
that the link to a payment was insufficient to call it "prostitution." I have always remained open to 
a challenge to the list, so your suggestion that Mr. Epstein was forced to write a blank check is 
simply unfounded. 
Your last set of allegations relates to the investigation of the matter. For instance, you claim 
that some of the victims were informed of their right to collect damages prior to a thorough 
investigation of their allegations against Mr. Epstein. This also is false. None of the victims was 
informed of the right to sue under Section 2255 prior to the investigation of the claims. Three 
victims were notified shortly after the signing of the Non-Prosecution Agreement of the general 
terms of that Agreement. You raised objections to any victim notification, and no further 
notifications were done. Throughout this process you have seen that I have prepared this case as 
though it would proceed to trial. Notifying the witnesses of the possibility of damages claims prior 
to concluding the matter by plea or trial would only undermine my case. If my reassurances are 
insufficient, the fact that not a single victim has threatened to sue Mr. Epstein should assure you of 
the integrity of the investigation' 
'There are numerous other unfounded allegations in your letter about document demands, 
the money laundering investigation, contacting potential witnesses, speaking with the press, end the 
like. For the most part, these allegations hove been raised and disprove', earlier and need not be 
readdressed. However, with respect to the subpoena served upon the private investigator, contrary 
to your assertion, and as your co-counsel has already been told, I did consult with the Justice 
Department prior to issuing the subpoena and I was told that because I was not subpoenaing an 
attorney's office or an office physically located within an attorney's office, and because the business 
did private investigation work for individuals (rather than working exclusively for Mr. Black), I 
could issue a 
in the normal course, which is what I did. I also did not 
"threaten" the State Attorney's Office with a

coordinator makes perfectly clear.

I contacted her attorney — who was paid for by Mr. Epstein and 
was directed by counsel for Mr. Epstein to demand immunity — and asked only whether he still 
representedatnd 
if he wanted me to send the victim notification letter to him. Ile asked 
what the letter would say and 1 told him that the letter would be forthcoming in about a week and 
that I could not provide him with the terms. With respect 
',status as a victim, you 
again want us to accept as true onl fact that are beneficial to your client and to reject as false 
anything detrimental to him. 
made a number of statements that are contradicted by 
documentary evidence and a review of her recorded statement shows her lack of credibility with 
respect to a number of statements. Based upon all of the evidence collecteralSr is classified 
as a victim as defined by statute. Of course, that does not mean tha, 
 considers herself 
a victim or that she would seek damages from Mr. Epstein. I believe that a number of the identified 
victims will not seek damages, but that does not negate their legal status as victims. 
I hope that you now understand that your accusations against myself and the agents are 
unfounded. In the future, I recommend that you address your accusations to me so that I can correct 
any misunderstandings before you make false allegations to others in the Department. 1 hope that 
we can move forward with a professional resolution of this matter, whether that be by your client's 
adherence to the contract that he signed, or by virtue of a trial. 
Sincerely, 
United States Attorney

You also accuse me of "broaden[ind the scope of the investigation without any foundation 
for doing so by adding charges of money laundering and violations of a money transmitting business 
to the investigation." Again, I consulted with the Justice Department's Money Laundering Section 
about my analysis before expanding that scope. The duty attorney agreed with my analysis.
