A document included in the latest release of Epstein files appears to be a draft indictment with 32 different charges against Epstein.
On the document, there is a hand written note saying “old draft”. It’s not clear when this document is from, or who wrote the note on it – but it seemingly was created within the US District Court of the Southern District of Florida.
The apparent draft indictment includes prostitution and sex trafficking charges, and also names Epstein as being the owner of a property in Palm Beach, along with several companies.
At the bottom of the document is a space reserved for the signature of US Attorney Alexander Acosta, who struck a deal with Epstein in 2007 that allowed the financier to avoid a potential life sentence.
He instead served 13 months of an 18-month conviction.
During his confirmation hearing for Secretary of Labour in March 2017, Acosta defended the deal, telling lawmakers that it required Epstein to register as a sex offender and go to prison.
