To: Mortimer Zuckerma From: Jeffrey Epstein Sent Wed 3/9/2011 2:47:24 PM Subject: thanks Im thinkg of having the lawyers ( dersh etc. ) put out a statement or an op-ed piece„ thoughts, I. That the media has mischaracterized the offenses, that after a thorough investigation, JE plead guilty to - there was no reference to being a pedophile and the tabloids tales of "school girls" is misleading - instead, the evidence showed a pattern of girls, many over 18, some under, exchanging massages for money and that the girls under 18 were regularly told to assure JE that they were 18 to even gain admittance to his house 2. That the media has focused on just one slice of JE life. That he is a generous philanthropist and brilliant professional with loyal friends and colleagues whose relationship with him has nothing to do with women 3. That our criminal justice system is based on finality and on encouraging people who made mistakes to suffer a single punishment, and then to have a chance at a new life. JE has paid that price for his past. There is absolutely no allegation of any conduct after 2005, and most of it was long before. 4. They deal exclusively with conduct over 6 and often over 10 years old 5. That the articles appear to rely on information obtained by civil plaintiffs lawyers, some of whom continue to seek monetary advantages from a media campaign against JE. 6. That the dangers of media excess arc best illustated by the fact that one of the civil lawyers who was seeking financial benefits from JE is now serving a 50 year sentence for racketeering and fraud based in part on fabricating information about civil cases involving fabrcated epstein related cases. ***************•********************************* The information contained in this communication is confidential, may be attorney-client privileged, may constitute inside information, and is intended only for the use of the addressee.
