Training Institute (NTI), held this year in Denver from December 4-6.

at Edwards Pottinger LLC who specializes in providing civil representations for victims of
sexual abuse and violent crimes.
His presentation, titled Jeffrey Epstein and the Rights of His Victims, will center on his
experience representing victims of billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. His work on the
Epstein case spans more than a decade, and it was crucial to keeping it alive; ultimately, his
work paved the way for new charges to be brought against Epstein in 2019. His presentation
will include the stories of some of the victims he has served.

Brad Edwards, Jeffrey Epstein, and Victims' Rights
EFTA01650520
In July 2019, billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was
famously arrested on federal charges for sex trafficking of
minors in Florida and New York. The criminal case against Epstein
was closed in August, following his death.
Brad Edwards has served as an attorney for multiple Epstein
victims and has personally investigated the case for more than a
decade.
Brad's involvement with the Epstein case began in 2008. He provided legal representation to
multiple girls who reported to Palm Beach, Florida, detectives that Epstein abused them. The
case was referred to the FBI, and Epstein ultimately pleaded guilty in state court to charges of
solicitation of prostitution and procurement of minors for prostitution after having entered into a
non-prosecution agreement with federal prosecutors.
The deal was kept secret from the victims and sealed until after it was approved by the judge.
Dissatisfied with this result, Brad responded by filing a federal suit arguing that the prosecutors
violated the Crime Victims' Rights Act when they failed to confer with or notify victims.
In February 2019, after over 10 years of litigation, US District Court Judge Kenneth Marra
ruled that the federal government violated the rights of Jeffrey Epstein's many victims
when it failed to confer with the victims of Jeffrey Epstein prior to entering into the Non-
Prosecution Agreement between the government and Epstein.

While the prosecution of Epstein has been made impossible, the persistence of Brad Edwards
and similar advocates made it possible for victims to speak before the court about the abuse
they suffered by Epstein. Instead of issuing a written dismissal which would be typical the
presiding judge asked prosecutors and defense lawyers to appear before the court so
accusers could be heard. More than a dozen of Epstein's victims and their attorneys attended
the hearing, and sixteen victims delivered statements. Brad Edwards called it, "a historic day for
crime victims in the United States."
Brad remains among the staunchest advocates for Epstein's victims. In media reporting, he has
been credited with keeping the case alive and deemed an unspoken hero in the Jeffrey
Epstein story. Alongside Brittany Henderson, Brad is currently in the process of
litigating the next phase of that case to determine the remedy for the violation of the
rights of the girls.
