I also learned that, every moment that one is aboard an enclosed civil airplane, they are in the "special aircraft jurisdiction of the United States," so the assault charge is really a violation of 49 USC 46506, which doesn't change the penalties. I have drafted up a factual proffer that I would use at the change of plea based upon our brief conversation and the agents' interaction with 'at her home. The agents and I would need to speak with Ms. briefly to confirm that these facts are true. Feel free to make suggestions. On an "avoid the press" note, I believe that Mr. Epstein's airplane was in Miami on the day of the telephone call. If he was in Miami-Dade County at the time, then I can file the charge in the District Court in Miami, which will hopefully cut the press coverage significantly. Do you want to check that out? I will talk to you later. Thanks. tz Epstein Plea Proffer.doc 21K EFTA00081316 Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 361-53 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/10/2016 Page 3 of 4 UNITED STATES vs. JEFFREY EPSTEIN PLEA PROFFER On August __, 2007, FBI Special Agents E.
