Email Chain: Attorneys Challenge DOJ Non-Prosecution Agreement and Crime Victims' Rights Violations (File 013405)

Email from Darren Indyke to Jackie Perczel forwarding news articles about attorneys Brad Edwards and Paul Cassell filing court papers challenging the Crime Victims' Rights Act violations in the Jeffrey Epstein non-prosecution agreement signed by the Miami U.S. Attorney's Office.

Summary

Darren Indyke forwards articles to Jackie Perczel dated April 7, 2011, documenting attorneys' legal challenge to the DOJ's handling of the Epstein case. The articles report that Brad Edwards and Paul Cassell filed court papers claiming the U.S. Attorney's office for the Southern District of Florida violated the Crime Victims' Rights Act by signing a non-prosecution agreement with Epstein without notifying his alleged victims. The filings allege the government deliberately misled victims by claiming an ongoing investigation in January and May 2008 while having already signed the agreement in September 2007. The attorneys seek to have the agreement invalidated and potentially allow federal charges against Epstein.
