I like it. I don't know about trying to limit its distribution, but maybe add something like, "1 hope that you. Mr. 
Krischer. and I will have a chance to discuss this openly and objectively before Mr. Epstein's counsel provides 
us with their slanted view."

I've tailored your email for Lana a little bit. Before I press send, please take a look one more time. Perhaps we 
should include some caveat to prohibit further distribution. What do you think? 
Jeff 
Ms. Belohlavek, 
I called you this morning and left a message. I wanted to inform you that on Friday, December 14, 2007, 
Jeffrey Epstein's defense team argued, for the first time, that the state charge contained in the Non-Prosecution 
Agreement does not apply to the facts of his case. As an ethical matter, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the 
Southern District of Florida does not want a defendant to plead guilty to a crime that he did not commit; 
however, we are not experts in the interpretation of the Florida Criminal Code, so we look to you for guidance. 
To assist, I have listed the statute below and summarized the arguments of Mr. Epstein's attorneys. I also have 
included the factual proffer that you have previously requested so that you can determine whether, in your 
opinion, there is a sufficient factual basis for a plea. 
Fl. Stat. 796.03 states: "A person who procures for prostitution, or causes to be prostituted, any person who is 
under the age of 18 years commits a felony of the second degree ..." 
Fl. Stat. 777.011 states: "Whoever commits any criminal offense against the state, whether felony or 
misdemeanor, or aids, abets, counsels, hires, or otherwise procures such offense to be committed, and such 
offense is committed or is attempted to be committed, is a principal in the first degree and may be charged, 
convicted, and punished as such, whether he or she is or is not actually or constructively present at the 
commission of such offense."

EFTA00189245

Mr. Epstein's counsel state that Section 796.03 applies only to procuring a minor to engage in a sex act with a 
third party, not with the defendant himself, relying on Kobel I State, 745 So.2d 979, 982 (Fla. 4th DCA 1999), 
and Register v. State, 715 So.2d 274, 278 (Ha. In DCA 1998). They also assert that a commercial motive must 
be shown. Please consider whether the following facts are sufficient to prove a violation of Section 796.03, 
when read in conjunction with Section 777.011. 
From at least as early as 2001 through October 2005, the defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, procured at 
least 30 identified minor females between the ages of 14 and 17 in Palm Beach County to come to his home 
in Palm Beach to engage in sexual conduct in exchange for money. In particular, the defendant would pay 
females, including minors, $200 to recruit other females, including minors, to come to his house to engage 
in sexual activity. The minors who were procured would receive between $200 and $1,000 depending 
upon the type of sexual activity that they engaged in. Several victims have stated that, when they were 
unwilling to engage in sexual activity with the defendant, the defendant would ask them to bring other girls 
instead, and promised to pay them $200 for each girl whom they brought. Mr. Epstein would regularly ask 
his recruiters to find new girls for him because he wanted "fresh faces." 
In some instances, the defendant did not know the correct age of the minor female who was 
procured as a prostitute, but in more than half of the instances he did. For example, the defendant 
purchased gifts for some girls for their 18th birthdays, promised to send them on trips when they turned 18, 
talked with them about activities at their high schools; and provided transportation for those who could not 
drive. 
The sexual activity the defendant engaged in with the minor females included: requiring minor 
females to perform topless or nude massages while the defendant masturbated himself; fondling the breasts 
and vaginas of the minor females; digital penetration of the vaginas of minors; the use of a massaging 
device on the vaginas of minors; requiring a minor female to pose for nude photographs; requiring minor 
females to watch others (including the defendant) engage in sexual intercourse; requiring minor females to 
fondle the breasts of the defendant's adult female companion; performing oral sex on minor females; 
requiring minor females to perform oral sex on the defendant's adult female companion; and sexual 
intercourse with minor females. There are four minor females who engaged in vaginal intercourse with the 
defendant in exchange for money. None of the minor females who was brgught to Mr. Epstein's house had 
ever engaged in prostitution prior to being procured by one of Mr. Epstein's recruiters.

Dear Lanna: 
I was just informed that a case disposition conference has been set in the Epstein case on January 7, 
2008. Our agreement with Mr. Epstein contemplated a simultaneous plea and sentencing for October 
(or, as we later agreed, November). followed by Mr. Epstein self-surrendering to begin serving his 
sentence not later than January 4, 2008. From your last e-mail, it appeared that the judge was under the 
impression that Mr. Epstein could not be sentenced before January 2008. We are hoping that Judge 
McSorley would consider conducting the simultaneous plea and sentencing some time before January 
4, 2008, so that Mr. Epstein can comply with the terms of our agreement and begin serving his sentence 
on January 4, 2008. 
I also would appreciate it if you could send me a copy of the plea agreement,'the Information that you 
plan to file (if it hasn't been filed already). and any factual proffer or other documents related to the 
plea. Please also let me know the date and time of the plea and sentencing so that someone from our 
office can attend and insure Mr. Epstein's compliance with the terms of his federal non-prosecution 
agreement. 
If you need any information regarding the federal investigation, or if you have any questions about the 
terms of the federal non-prosecution agreement, please do not hesitate to contact me at the number 
below or Marie in the West Palm Beach office. 
Thank you,

Good evening. I am the ASA with the Epstein case in Palm Beach County. The negotiated settlement 
is a definite go. A difficulty arose last week at a conference with the judge on the case. She wants the 
plea and sentence to occur concurrently; not a plea with a sentencing at a later date. Therefore, the case 
was set for the first week of January, but the plea and sentence will definitely occur before the January 
4th date that was agreed on by all for the sentencing. 
If you have any questions, please contact me at 561-355-7376 or lbelohla@sa15.statenus.

Epstein thought 
Hi Jeff—Only one obsessive thought last night. When you talk to Lanna, you might want to convince her that 
(assuming she agrees wi h 
is) the evidence in the state case is enough to support the charge, especially 
the taped statement of 
and others who talked about recruiting other girls. I definitely do not want 
Epstein's camp to use is as an excuse to view all of our evidence, then withdraw from the plea, and then go to 
trial. 
Thanks.
