Description

The confidentiality provision and the allegation of favored treatment suggest a possible attempt to conceal information from the victims and the public, potentially indicating leverage or influence being used.

We urge the Attorney General and our United States Attorney to consider the fundamental import of the vigorous enforcement of our Federal laws. We urge you to move forward with the traditional indictments and criminal prosecution commensurate with the crimes Mr. Epstein has committed, and we further urge you to take the steps necessary to protect our children from this very dangerous sexual predator.

Congress' main concern in passing the CVRA was that crime victims were "treated as non-participants in a critical event in their lives. They were kept in the dark by prosecutors too busy to care enough ... and by a court system that simply did not have a place for them."

This case already reeks of favored treatment for a billionaire sex offender who has substantial influence.

• The Non-Prosecution Agreement with Epstein containing an express confidentiality provision that prevented the Government from disclosing the terms of the Agreement to the victims.
• The Government's failure to disclose the Non-Prosecution Agreement to the victims and misleading statements regarding the status of the investigation.
• Epstein receiving an unusual benefit from the Government by delaying his performance while he was given an opportunity to seek higher level review within the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C.

Context

The details of the Non-Prosecution Agreement and the allegations of CVRA violations would likely be of interest to the media.
