Notable Quotes 3
The bigger problem is the statute of limitations. A defendant can waive his right to challenge the statute under Florida law, but I don't think that Epstein will be willing to do so.
Before we got involved, the police were told that Epstein was going to plead to a misdemeanor and get no jail time. (That is one of the reasons why they asked the FBI to step in.)
He objected to pleading to the state charge, claiming that the facts did not apply, and asked to plead to a non-registrable offense instead.
Red Flags 2
