court filing: Case#: 18-cr-390 (JFK) Document#: 32 Filed: 07/18/2019 Page 22 of 33

The court analyzed the risk of flight posed by Jeffrey Epstein, considering factors such as the seriousness of the crimes charged, the weight of evidence, and Epstein's history and characteristics. The Pretrial Services Report concluded that Epstein posed a risk of nonappearance due to his extensive foreign travel, financial ties outside the district and country, and unexplained assets. The court ultimately found that the Government had shown by a preponderance of the evidence that Epstein was a flight risk.
