Attorney claims Palm Beach Police distorted media narrative on Epstein case and pressured State Attorney to use grand jury The passage provides a potential lead that Palm Beach Police and a publicist may have coordinated media messaging to influence the handling of the Epstein case, including a letter from Police Chief Michael Reiter to State Attorney Barry Krischer suggesting disqualification. It names specific officials and a defense attorney, offering a concrete document (the May 1 letter) to follow up, but the claims are unverified and lack clear evidence of illegal conduct, limiting its immediate impact. Key insights: Goldberger alleges Palm Beach Police used the press to embarrass Epstein and manipulate the case.; Police Chief Michael Reiter wrote to State Attorney Barry Krischer on May 1, asking to consider disqualification from the prosecution.; Krischer referred the case to a grand jury rather than filing charges directly, allegedly to appease the police chief.
