Importance: Normal¶
FBI Miami’s case officially became pending inactive due to the deal that then US Attorney Alex Acosta made with Epstein and his lawyers. FBI Miami was still investigating the case and were not in agreement with the non-prosecution agreement Epstein was given.¶
FBI Miami Agents did follow-up on information received in 2011 when a victim who originally was not spoken with came forward. FBI Miami took the case to a different district in Florida and the USAO declined to move forward with a prosecution.¶
In 2016, civil attorneys for victims approached SDNY AUSAs regarding a civil suit they were pursuing claiming violations of the CVRA and presenting information that Epstein should be the subject of a criminal investigation, wanting SDNY to investigate further. Nothing came from this meeting and no investigation was opened at that time.¶
Hope this answers your questions. Let me know if you have any follow-up questions with the above. Happy to chat as well if need be.¶

Another follow up..¶
If you don’t know the answer, I can ask Miami:¶
OCA has received the EM approved Epstein summary, but they had a follow-up question:¶
What happened in the Miami case? Did it close after two years, and why? And nothing between ~2007 - 2018?¶

Would it be okay if I catch you a bit later (around 5pm)? We have a panel discussion coming up at the PCOR conference so I won’t be able to step away until after.¶

Respectfully,¶
I know we have some write ups from having to do regular reports so let me see what I already have and see what else we need to pull together to give the full overview. I’ll work on getting this to you as soon as possible.¶
If you have a minute to chat, I have a couple questions.¶
I know I told you I hoped I wouldn’t have to bother you again,¶
Please see the below tasker. Would you be able to get a timeline to me by Thursday morning? Bullet points for the timeline / summary would be great and I can put it in whatever format they want. If you have something already written up, feel free to send it my way and I can always pull out what we need.¶
Thank you!¶
