Victims' rights: Jane Does v. United States (2014)
A December 30, 2014, federal civil suit was filed in Florida by Jane Doe 1 (Courtney Wild) and
Jane Doe 2 against the United States for violations of the Crime Victims' Rights Act by the US.
Department of Justice's NPA with Epstein and his limited 2008 state plea. There was a later
unsuccessful effort to add Virginia Roberts (Jane Doe 3) and another woman (Jane Doe 4) as
plaintiffs to that case W-?] The addition accused Alan Dershowitz of sexually abusing a minor, Jane
Doe 3, provided by Epstein.W31 The allegations against Dershowitz were stricken by the judge and
eliminated from the case because he said they were outside the intent of the suit to re-open the
plea agreement.[1341[ 151 A document filed in court alleges that Epstein ran a "sexual abuse ring",
and lent underage girls to "prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign
presidents, a well-known prime minister, and other world leaders" .D361
This long-running lawsuit is pending in federal court aimed at vacatinj the federal plea agreement
on the grounds that it violated victims' rights.
W] On April 7, 2015, Judge Kenneth Marra ruled
that the allegations made by alleged victim Virginia Roberts against Prince Andrew hia no bearing
on the lawsuit by alleged victims seeking to reopen Epstein's non-prosecution plea agreement with
the federal government the judge ordered that allegation to be struck from the record.W4) Judge
Marra made no ruling as to whether claims by Roberts are true or false. Though he did not allow
Jane Does 3 and 4 to join the suit, Marra specifically said that Roberts may later give evidence
when the case comes to court.('-mil
On February 21, 2019, in the case of Two Jane Does v. United States, Senior Judge of the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of Florida Kenneth Malta said federal prosecutors violated
the law by failing to notify victims before they allowed him to plead guilty to only the two Florida
offenses. The judge left open what the possible remedy could be.11393

Brown in the Miami Herald revealed Jane Doe 3 to be Virginia Giuffre, who was previously known as Virginia Roberts. Giuffre met Maxwell at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Florida, when Giuffre was a 16- year-old spa attendant.1?-2-1 She asserted that Maxwell had introduced her to Epstein, after which she was "groomed by the two [of them] for his pleasure, including lessons in Epstein's preferences during oral sex". 22]1631 Maxwell has repeatedly denied any_ involvement in Epstein's crimes. [511 In a 2015 statement, Maxwell rejected allegations that she has acted as a procurer for Epstein and denied that she had "facilitated Prince Andrew's [alleged] acts of sexual abuse". Her spokesperson said "the allegations made against Ghislaine Maxwell are untrue" and she "strongly denies allegations of an unsavoury nature, which have appeared in the British press and elsewhere, and reserves her right to seek redress at the repetition of such old defamatory claims" [58)1641 Giuffre asserted that Maxwell and Epstein had trafficked her and other underage girls, often at sex parties hosted by Epstein at his homes in New York, New Mexico, Palm Beach, and the United States Virgin Islands. Maxwell called her a liar. Giuffre sued Maxwell for defamation in federal court in the Southern District of New York in 2015.

According to the Miami Herald, the non-prosecution agreement "essentially shut down an ongoing FBI probe into whether there were more victims and other powerful people who took part in Epstein's sex crimes". At the time, this halted the investigation and sealed the indictment. The Miami Herald said: "Acosta agreed, despite a federal law to the contrary, that The controversial non- the deal would be kept from the victims."Eg prosecution agreement Acosta later said he offered a lenient plea deal because he was told that Epstein "belonged to intelligence", was "above his pay grade" and to "leave it alone" .1.2)(531[1121 Epstein agreed to plead guilty in Florida state court to two felony prostitution charges, serve 18 months in prison, register as a sex offender, and pay restitution to three dozen victims identified by the FBI.R1[891 The plea deal was later described as a "sweetheart dearila) A federal judge later found that the prosecutors had violated the victims' rights in that they had concealed the agreement froth the victims and instead urged them to have "patience" Pats ) According to an internal review conducted by the Department of Justice's Office of Professional Responsibility, which was released in November 2020, Acosta showed "poor judgment" in granting Epstein a non-prosecution agreement and failing to notify Epstein's alleged victims about this agreement (LIB External video fi Documentary: Who is Jeffrey Epstein, accused of sexually abusing teen girls? (https://www.you • tube.com/watch?v=1jDPzW9COsU) Perversion of Justice, Miami Herald, November 29, 2018. Conviction and sentencing (2008-2011) On June 30, 2008, after Epstein pleaded guilty to a state charge (one of two) of procuring for prostitution a girl below age 28,0-47-1 he was sentenced to i8 months in prison. While most convicted sex offenders in Florida are sent to state prison, Epstein was instead housed in a private wing of the Palm Beach County Stockade and, according to the sheriffs office, was after 31/2 months allowed to leave the jail on "work release" for up to 22 hours a day, 6 days a week. This contravened the sheriffs own policies requiring a maximum remaining sentence of 10 months and making sex offenders ineligible for the privilege. He was allowed to come and go outside of specified release hours.[Pal Epstein's cell door was left unlocked, and he had access to the attorney room where a television was installed for him, 'Afore he was moved to the Stockade's previously unstaffed infirmary. He worked at the office of a foundation he had created shortly before reporting to jail; he dissolved it after he had served his time. The Sheriffs Office received $128,000 from Epstein's non-profit to pay for the costs of extra services being provided during his work release. His office was monitored by "permit deputies" whose overtime was paid by Epstein. They were required to wear suits, and checked in "welcomed guests" at the "front desk". Later the Sheriffs Office said these guest logs were destroyed per the department's "records retention" rules (although inexplicably the Stockade visitor logs were not)11-4-3) He was allowed to use his own driver to drive him between jail and his office and other appointments.D—QPIDA httne•lien nnsMdkl/Jeffrev Epstein EFTA00263844
