aah han IMPORTANT MESSAGE Fi FOR ALF SSEEEESESELEEL A eee eee eee eh eer eee Oe ee ee oe ee ae Palm Beach County Court Epstein, in his Florida sex offender photo; at right, a phone message to Epstein from a modeling agent offering Russian lessons from a “2x8” year old girl. In 2006, that reputation caught up with him, when he was arrested by the Palm Beach Police on charges of sexually molesting numerous underage girls. Police reports in the court record show that detectives found Epstein regularly paid very young women to give him massages that he turned into sexual encounters. He allegedly had a preference for very young women, whom he carefully groomed into increasingly extreme situations, including what some, including Roberts, allege to be sexual slavery. In total, 40 women were identified as possible victims of sexual abuse by Epstein, many of them teenagers at the time, including some younger than 14 years old. Epstein was originally charged with a variety of crimes, including sexual assault, rape, and witness tampering. He avoided most of those charges as well as federal prosecution in late 2007 by agreeing to plead guilty in Florida court, a deal that Dershowitz, who was one of Epstein’s lawyers, helped negotiate along with an all-star legal lineup that interestingly also included famed Clinton-hunter Ken Starr. In the end, Epstein got 18 months in prison for a single count of soliciting an underage prostitute, of which he served 13 months. He is now a registered sex offender who lists his primary residence as the U.S. Virgin Islands. In a pleading late last month in federal court, attorneys for Roberts allege that “Dershowitz helped negotiate an agreement with a provision that provided protection for himself against criminal prosecution.” Dershowitz has denied these charges vigorously, calling them “salacious and false” and, possibly more importantly, “completely irrelevant” in a Jan. 12 filing.
