Federal prosecutors allegedly back‑down on Epstein victim notifications after pressure from Epstein’s lawyers, with DOJ officials’ communications revealing internal conflict

Federal prosecutors allegedly back‑down on Epstein victim notifications after pressure from Epstein’s lawyers, with DOJ officials’ communications revealing internal conflict The passage provides concrete names (Jeffrey Sloman, Acosta, Lefkowitz, Starr) and dates (2008, 2013) showing possible obstruction of victim notifications in the Epstein case, suggesting a lead for investigating DOJ and FBI decision‑making. While it ties high‑level officials, the claim of pressure from Epstein’s attorneys is not yet corroborated, limiting the score to the high‑mid range. Key insights: Jeffrey Sloman, top aide to U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta, planned to notify Epstein victims after a plea deal was signed.; Lefkowitz warned Acosta that the office had promised not to contact victims or potential claimants.; Federal prosecutors resumed the FBI investigation and interviewed witnesses in NY and NM while plea negotiations continued.
