From: "Smith, Stephanie" Sent: 05/18/2010 05:11 PM AST To: Jay Lefkowitz Hi Jay, Stephanie Smith from Page Six at the New York Post. I have a copy of a complaint filed here by Podhurst Orseck, the law firm that represented 16 victims in the Jeffrey Epstein case. The complaing claims that Epstein owes them $2 million in fees and is in breach of his non-prosection agreeement, where he agreed to pay the victims' legal fees. Wanted to see if you or Epstein had a response to this complaint. I am covering this for the Page Six column in the post tomorrow. I do have a 6 pm deadline. Please let me know if you're the correct lawyer that I should reach out to . Best, Stephanie Stephanie Smith The New York Post Page Six 1211 Avenue of the Americas New York, NY 10036 212.930.8618 office 917.482.8178 cell Two years after pleading guilty for running an illicit pleasure den where he sexually assaulted hundreds of underage girls, Palm Beach billionaire Jeff Epstein is now stiffing his victims vet again by refusing to pay their legal fees, which he is required to pay under the Non Prosecution Agreement he inked with the US Atty's office back in 2008. According to a complaint filed in Federal court today, this development could open the doors to a Federal prosecution. As past news articles reveal, Epstein had a predilection for young teenage girls (most ages 14-16) who he would force into sexual acts. In 2009, Epstein entered into what many saw as a "sweetheart deal," with federal EFTA00627617 prosecutors waiving prosecution in exchange for a guilty plea at the state level and reducing what would have been a 10 yr minimum jail sentence to only 18 months (he served 13). Under the agreement, Epstein beared responsibility for paying his victims' legal fees in the civil suits filed against him. Florida attorney Bob Josefsberg, a partner at Miami-based Podhurst Orseck, was appointed by the US Atty's office to represent 12 victims. But while Epstein bankrolled an army of high-priced defense lawyers — Alan Dershowitz and Ken Starr among them — he has yet to pay the more than $2 million in fees billed by his victims' lawyers. Epstein's unwillingness to pay comes as the same time as he refuses to divulge any information about his net worth, despite a court order, other than to say its upwards of $50 million. Many believe his net worth to be in the billions. Today's lawsuit, filed in Miami federal court by Steve Marks and Peter Prieto of Podhurst Orseck claims that "it has become abundantly clear that Epstein, having obtained the benefits of the NPA and escaped federal criminal prosecution, now believes that he can simply ignore — without consequence — the obligations imposed. Put simply, Epstein believes he is above the law." Jeff Epstein's failure to pay these bills puts him in material violation of his Non Prosecution Agreement and could give way to the federal prosecution of him and his accomplices (the women who would lure the young girls to his place). Let me know if interested and I'll send you a copy of the complaint. I can also line up interviews to speak with the attorneys who filed suit. ******WWW***********************************************WWW 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.
