court filing: Case 1:20-cr-00320-AJN Document 332 Filed 07/28/20 Page 2 of 21

The Government opposes the defendant's request to publicly disclose the identities of Epstein's and the defendant's victims, citing the Crime Victims' Rights Act and the need to protect victim privacy. The Government's proposed order aims to balance the defendant's need to prepare for trial with the protection of victim identities. The court is asked to deny the defendant's demand as overly broad and unnecessary.
