A federal judge ruled Thursday that prosecutors broke federal law in brokering a 2008 plea agreement for hedge-fund manager and millionaire Jeffrey Epstein. in 2005, Epstein was accused of orchestrating a sex trafficking ring and sexually assaulting dozens of minors. His plea agreement, which was sealed from the public record, distilled these accusations into two prostitution charges and arranged for Epstein to spend 13 months in a private wing of a Palm Beach county jail with six days of work release to his office each week.
In his ruling, Judge Kenneth Marra found that prosecutors—led by former Miami US Attorney, and current US Secretary of Labor, Alex Acosta—violated the federal Crime Victims’ Rights Act (CVRA) by sealing Epstein’s plea agreement so that Epstein’s victims could not see its terms or speak at his sentencing.
Marra’s opinion detailed a series of communications between the US Attorney’s office and Epstein’s legal team in which both parties agreed that the prosecution would not pursue federal charges and that the victims would not be notified. Marra noted that “[i]t was a deviation from the Government’s practice to negotiate with defense counsel about the extent of crime victim notifications.”

Shockingly, Epstein's $77 million mansion contained a safe that was functional equivalent of a child molester "go bag," containing cash, diamonds and a fake-ass passport. That, coupled with Epstein's refused to proving a full accounting of his assets unless and until he was granted bail, means
no bail.
