## Details:

In October 2009, Miami Division opened an obstruction of justice case against ALFREDO RODRIGUEZ. RODRIGUEZ was the previous house manager and butler to Palm Beach County resident JEFFREY EPSTEIN. EPSTEIN was the subject of a child prostitution, 31E matter, worked by Miami Division beginning in 2006. Investigation of EPSTEIN revealed that he brought underage girls to his home to perform massages and paid them to engage in sex acts with himself and one another. The U.S. Attorney's Office entered into a non-prosecution agreement with EPSTEIN where EPSTEIN pled guilty to state offenses in Florida state court. EPSTEIN was sentenced to a period of state prison followed by community supervision as a registered sex offender. EPSTEIN completed his community supervision in July 2010.

EPSTEIN's victims filed suit against EPSTEIN in state and federal court seeking damages in civil litigation. During the discovery process, RODRIGUEZ was deposed by attorney BRADLEY EDWARDS who represented several of the victims. After his deposition, RODRIGUEZ contacted EDWARDS and advised that he had lists of additional victims that he had not previously disclosed

RODRIGUEZ advised he would not turn the information over to the attorney but instead wanted monetary compensation. In November 2009, RODRIGUEZ attempted to sell the information to a UCE for $50,000.00, which resulted in the above captioned case.

Information was recently provided to FBI Miami that previously worked for EPSTEIN as housekeepers or property managers at one of his properties and may have witnessed EPSTEIN's interaction with underage girls and criminal conduct. It is unclear at which property and worked. EPSTEIN maintained homes and residences in New York, New York, Palm Beach, Florida, the U.S. Virgin Islands, New Mexico, London, England, and Paris, France.
