Mystery money man faces soliciting charge

By NICOLE JANOK Palm Beach Post Staff Writer

A part-time Palm Beacher who has socialized with Donald Trump, Bill Clinton and Kevin Spacey was jailed early Sunday with accused drug dealers, drunken drivers and wife beaters after he was charged with soliciting a prostitute.

Manhattan money manager Jeffrey Epstein, 53, was picked up at his home on El Brillo Way at 1:45 a.m. He was released hours later on $3,000 bond.

Epstein was indicted last week by a state grand jury, according to state attorney’s spokesman Mike Edmondson. Despite Epstein’s arrest, the indictment containing the allegations remained sealed Sunday and Edmondson provided no details.

Unlike most accused johns, Epstein was charged with a third-degree felony instead of a misdemeanor. Under state law, a solicitation charge usually is elevated to a more-serious felony when the defendant has at least two solicitation convictions.

However, checks of court records here and in New York Sunday turned up no such convictions.

Epstein could not be reached. F 1mondson said he was being represented by West Palm Beach attorney Jack Goldberg, who declined comment.

Epstein is the president of J Epstein & Co., a money management company based in Manhattan that caters to ultrawealthy clientele, according to pub-See SOLICITING, 6B ►

lished reports. National magazines have described him as a “mysterious billionaire” who lives in a 45,000square-foot New York City mansion.

He has been in trouble before. In 1993, he and two other defendants were charged in federal court with three counts of postal larceny and theft and one count of property theft. Epstein plead guilty to a single charge of conspiring to steal U.S. Treasury checks from residential mailboxes and received 5 years’ probation. The remaining charges were

dropped.

Since then, Epstein’s name has turned up in New York City’s tabloids. The New York Post noted he flew President Clinton and Kevin Spacey to Africa on his private Boeing 727. In 2003, the paper dubbed him one of the Big Apple’s “top studs.”

In 2004, Epstein bid against Trump for a 43,000square foot Palm Beach estate once owned by healthcare magnate Abe Gosman. Trump topped Epstein with a $41.35 million bid.

Indictment: Billionaire solicited 3 times

Palm Beach police will report today about their prostitution probe of the money manager.

Billionaire money manager and Palm Beach part-time resident Jeffrey Epstein solicited or procured prostitutes three or more times between Aug. 1 and Oct. 31 of last year, according to an indictment charging him with felony solicitation of prostitution.

Epstein, 53, was booked at the Palm Beach County jail at 1:45 a.m. Sunday. He was released on $3,000 bond.

Epstein’s case is unusual in that suspected prostitution johns are usually charged with a misdemeanor, and even a felony charge is typically made in a criminal information - an alternative to an indictment charging a person with

31E-MH-108062 -

the commission of a crime.

His attorney, Jack Goldberger, declined to discuss the charge. State attorney’s of-

fice spokesman Mike Edmondson also had little to say.

Epstein “Generally speaking, there is a case that

has a number of different aspects to it,” Edmondson said of a prostitutionrelated charge being submitted to a grand jury. “We first became aware of the case months ago by Palm Beach police.”

Prosecutors and police worked together to bring the case to the grand jury, he said.

Palm Beach police confirmed that and said the department will release a report today regarding its investigation.

Epstein has owned a five-bedroom, 71/2-bath, 7,234-square-foot home with a pool and a boat dock on the Intracoastal

Waterway since 1990, according to property records. A man answering the door there Monday said that Epstein wasn’t home. A Cadillac Escalade registered to him was parked in the driveway, which is flanked by two massive gargoyles.

Epstein sued Property Appraiser Gary Nikolits in 2001, contending that the assessment of his home exceeded its fair market value. He dismissed his lawsuit in December 2002.

A profile of Epstein in Vanity Fair magazine said he owns what are believed to be the largest private homes in Manhattan - 51,000 square feet — and in New Mexico — a 7,500-acre ranch. Those are in addition to his 70-acre island in the U.S. Virgin Islands and fleet of aircraft.

Epstein’s friends and admirers, according to the magazine, include prominent businessmen, academics and scientists and famed Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz.

After long probe, billionaire faces solicitation charge

By LARRY Palm Beach Post Staff Writer

Palm Beach billionaire Jeffrey Epstein paid to have underage girls and young women brought to his home, where he received massages and sometimes sex, ac-

cording to an investigation by the Palm Beach Police Department.

Palm Beach police spent months sifting through Ep-

trash and watching his waterfront home and Palm Beach International Airport to keep tabs on his private jet. An indictment Epsteln

charging Epstein, 53, was unsealed Monday, charging him with one count of felony solicitation of prostitution.

Palm Beach police thought there was probable cause to charge Epstein with unlawful sex acts with a minor and lewd and lascivious molestation.

Police Chief Michael Reiter was so angry with State Attorney Barry Krischer’s handling of the case that he wrote a memo

suggesting the county’s top prosecutor disqualify himself.

“I must urge you to examine the unusual course that your office’s handling of this atter has taken and consider good and sufficient reason exists to require your disqualification from the prosecution of these cases,” Reiter wrote in a May 1 memo to Krischer.

While not commenting specifically on the Epstein case, Mike Edmondson, spokesman for the state attorney, said his office presents cases other than murders to a grand jury when there are questions about witnesses’ credibility and their ability to testify.

By the nature of their jobs, police officers look at evi-“ence from a “one-sided persective,” Edmondson said. “A prosecutor has to look at it in a much broader fashion,” weighing the veracity of witnesses and how they may fare under defense attorneys’ questioning, he said.

Epstein’s attorney, Jack Goldberger, said his client committed no crimes.

“The reports and statements in question refer to false accusations that were not charged because the Palm Beach County state attorney questioned the credibility of the witnesses,” Goldberger said. A county grand jury “found the allegations wholly unsubstantiated and not credible,” and that’s why his client was not charged with sexual activity with minors, he said.

Goldberger said Epstein passed a lie detector test administered by a reputable polygraph examiner in which he said he did not know the girls were minors. Also, a search warrant served on Epstein’s home found no evidence to corroborate the girls’ allegations, Goldberger said.

According to police documents:

■ A Palm Beach Community College student said she gave Epstein a massage in the nude, then brought him six girls, ages 14 to 16, for massage and sex-tinged sessions at his home.

■ A 27-year-old woman who worked as Epstein’s personal assistant also facilitated the liaisons, phoning the PBCC student to arrange for girls when Epstein was coming to town. And she escorted the girls upstairs when they arrived, putting fresh sheets on a massage table and placing massage oils nearby.

■ Police took sworn statements from five alleged victims and 17 witnesses. They contend that on three occasions, Epstein had sex with the girls.

A money manager for the ultra-rich, Epstein was named one of New York’s most eligible bachelors in 2003 by The New York Post. He reportedly hobnobs with the likes of former President Clinton, former Harvard University President Summers and Donald Trump, and has lavish homes in Manhattan, New Mexico and the Virgin Islands.

He has contributed tens of thousands of dollars to Democratic Party candidates and organizations, including Sen. John Kerry’s presidential bid, and the Senate campaigns of Joe Hillary Clinton, Dodd and Charles Schumer.

Goldberger is one of five attorneys Epstein has retained since he became the subject of an investigation, Edmondson said. Among the others: Alan Dershowitz, the well-known Harvard law professor and author, who is a friend of Epstein. Dershowitz could not be reached for comment.

Police said the woman who enlisted young girls for Epstein was 20 of Palm Beach. has worked at an Olive Garden restaurant in Wellington and said she was a journalism major at Palm Beach Community College when she was questioned by police last October. She has an unlisted phone number and could not be reached for comment.

said she met Epwhen, at age 17, a friend asked her if she would like to make money giving him a massage. She said she was driven to his five-bedroom. 7½-bath home on the Intracoastal Waterway, then escorted upstairs to a bedroom with a massage table and oils. Epstein and were both naked during the massage, she said, but when he grabbed her buttocks, she said she didn’t want to be touched.

Epstein said he’d pay her to bring him more girls — the younger the better, told police. When she tried once to bring a 23-year-old woman to him, Epstein said she was too old,

who has not been charged in the case, said she eventually brought six girls to Epstein who were paid $200 each time, said, “I’m like a Heidi Fleiss,” police quoted her as saying. The girls knew what to expect when they were taken to Ephome, said. Give a massage — maybe naked — and allow some touching.

One 14-year-old girl Robson took to meet Epstein led police to start the investigation of him in March 2005. A relative of the girl called to say she thought the child had recently engaged in sex with a Palm Beach man. The girl then got into a fight with a classmate who accused her of being a prostitute, and she couldn’t explain why she had $300 in her purse.

The girl gave police this account of her meeting with Epstein:

She accompanied and a second girl to Epstein’s house on a Sunday in February 2005. Once there, a woman she thought was Epstein’s assistant told the girl to follow her upstairs to a room featuring a mural of a naked woman, several photographs of naked women on a shelf, a hot pink and sofa and a massage table.

She stripped to her bra and panties and gave him a massage.

Epstein gave the 14-yearold $300 and she and the other girls left, she said. She said told her that Epstein

paid her $200 that day. Other girls told similar stories. In most accounts, Epstein’s personal assistant at the time, and the girls to Ep-27, escorted the girls to Ep-

bedroom.

, whose most recent known address is in North Carolina, has not been charged in the case.

Palm Beach police often conducted surveillance of Epstein’s home, and at Palm Beach International Airport to see if his private jet was there, so they would know when he was in town. Police also arranged repeatedly to receive his trash from Palm Beach sanitation workers, collecting papers with names and phone numbers, sex toys and female hygiene products.

One note stated that a female could not come over at 7 p.m. because of soccer. Another said a girl had to work Sunday — “Monday after school?” And still another note contained the work hours of a girl, saying she leaves school at 11:30 a.m. and would come over the next day at 10:30 a.m.

Only three months before the police department probe began, Epstein donated $90,000 to the department for the purchase of a firearms simulator, said Jane Struder, town finance director. The purchase was never made. The money was returned to Epstein on Monday, she said.

Police say lawyer tried to discredit teenage girls

By LARRY KELLER Palm Beach Post Staff Writer

Famed Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz met with the Palm Beach County State Attorney’s Office and provided damaging information about teenage girls who say they gave his client, Palm Beach billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, sexually charged massages, according to police reports.

The reports also state that another Epstein attorney agreed to a plea bargain that would have allowed Epstein to have no criminal record. His current attorney denies this happened.

And the documents also reveal that the father of at least one girl complained that private investigators aggressively followed his car, photographed his home and chased off visitors.

Police also talked to somebody who said she was offered money if she refused to cooperate with the Palm Beach Police Department probe of Ep-

The state attorney’s office said it presented the Epstein case to a county grand jury this month rather than directly charging Epstein because of concerns about the girls’ credibility. The

rrand jury indicted Ep-, 53, on a single count of felony solicitation of prostitution, which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison.

Police believed there was probable cause to charge Epstein with the more serious crimes of unlawful sex acts with a minor and lewd and lascivious molestation. Police Chief Michael Reiter was so angry that he wrote State Attorney Barry Krischer a memo in May suggesting he disqualify himself from the case.

using the name “Pimpin’ Made EZ.” , who was not charged in the case, is a potential prosecution witness.

According to Recarey. prosecutor Lanna Belohlavek offered Epstein attorneys Dershowitz and Guy Fronstin a plea deal in April. Fronstin. after speaking with Epstein, accepted the deal, in which Epstein would plead guilty to one count of aggravated assault with intent to commit a felony, be placed on five years’ probation and have no criminal record. The deal also called for Epstein to submit to a psychiatric and sexual evaluation and have no unsupervised visits with minors, according to Recarey’s report. The plea bargain was made in connection with only one of the five alleged victims, the report states.

Fronstin — who declined to comment on the case was subsequently fired and veteran defense attorney Jack Goldberger was hired. He denies there was any agreement by any of Epattorneys to a plea deal.

“We absolutely did not agree to a plea in this case,” he said. Neither Belohlavek nor a state attorney’s spokesman could be reached for comment.

The parent or parents of alleged victims who com-

plained of being harassed by private investigators provided license tag numbers of two of the men. Police found the vehicles were registered to a private eye in West Palm Beach and another in Jupiter, according to Recarey’s report.

“I have no knowledge of it,” defense attorney Goldberger said.

The report also says a woman connected to the Ep-

case was contacted by somebody who was still in touch with Epstein. That person told her she would be compensated if she didn’t cooperate with police, Recarey’s report says. Those who did talk “will be dealt with,” the woman said she was told. Phone records show the woman talked with the person who allegedly intimidated her around the time she said, Recarey reported.

Phone records also show that the person said to have made the threat then placed a call to Epstein’s personal assistant, who in turn called a New York corporation affiliated with Epstein, the report states.

The issue in the Epstein case is not whether females came to his waterfront home, but whether he knew their ages.

“He’s never denied girls came to the house,” Goldherger said. But when Epwas given a polygraph test, “he passed on knowledge of age,” the attorney said.

After the indictment against Epstein was unsealed this week, Police Chief Reiter referred the matter to the FBI. “We’ve received the referral, and we’re reviewing it,” said FBI spokeswoman Judy Orihuela in Miami.

The chief himself has come_under attack from Ep-

lawyers and friends in New York, where he has a home. The New York Post quoted Epstein’s prominent New York lawyer, Gerald Lefcourt, as saying his client was indicted only “because of the craziness of the police chief.”

Reiter has declined to comment on the case.

Prosecutors have not presented a sex-related case like Epstein’s to a grand jury before, said Mike Edmondson, spokesman for the state attorney’s office. “That’s what you do with a case that falls into a gray area,” he said.

The state attorney’s office did not recommend a particular criminal charge on which to indict Epstein, Edmondson said. The grand jury was presented with a list of charges from highest to lowest, then deliberated with the prosecutor out of the room, he said.

“People are surprised at the grand jury proceeding,” West Palm Beach defense attorney Richard Tendler

said. “It’s a way for the prosecutor’s office to not take the full responsibility for not filing the (charge), and not doing what the Palm Beach Police Department wanted. I think something fell apart with those underage witnesses.”

Defense attorney Robert Gershman was a prosecutor for six years. “Those girls must have been incredible or untrustworthy, I don’t know,” he said.

Other attorneys said Epcase raises the issue of whether wealthy, connected defendants like Epstein –whose friends include former President Clinton and Donald Trump –– are treated differently from others. Once he knew he was the subject of a criminal probe, Epstein hired a phalanx of powerful attorneys such as Dershowitz and Lefcourt, who is a past president of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.

Miami lawyer Roy Black — who became nationally known when he successfully defended William Kennedy on a rape charge in Palm Beach — also was involved at one point.

Said defense attorney Suskauer: “I think it’s unfortunate the public may get the perception that with power, you may be treated differently than the average Joe.”

He was over 50 And they were girls

He was over 50. And they were girls

If the women whom Palm Beach police say a part-time town resident invited to his home and paid for sex acts were, in fact, women, the solicitation charge against Jeffrey Epstein might feel more sufficient. But, according to police records, they weren’t. He was over 50. And they were girls.

15. 16. 17-year-old girls. That should count for something — the difference between prostitution and pedophilia.

Cramer

So, it is baffling

that Mr. Epstein, who was indicted last month by a grand jury on one felony count of solicitation of prostitution, has not been charged, as Palm Beach police strenuously urged, with unlawful sex acts with a minor and lewd and lascivious molestation.

Conviction of crimes against minors would mean steeper penalties than the maximum five-year prison term Mr. Epstein faces if convicted of the single count of felony solicitation. It also would help carry a message of intolerance to perverts who prey on girls.

Prosecutors did not pursue charges against Mr. Epstein reflecting the age of the victims because they assumed a jury would view the girls not as victims but as promiscuous, untrustworthy, willing participants. The presumption is offensive.

Mr. Epstein, a 53-year-old Manhattan money manager who has hired Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz and defense attorney Jack Goldberger, has denied knowing how old the girls were. Jury should have decided if Epstein is a pedophile.

But police interviews with five alleged victims and 17 witnesses under oath, as well as phone messages, a high school transcript and other items that police found from searching Mr. Epstein’s trash and 7,234-square-foot waterfront home, provide evidence that he knew the girls were teenagers.

One girl couldn’t show up when Mr. Epstein wanted because she had soccer. Another time, Mr. Ephad to wait for his “massage” session because the girl he wanted

was still in class.

Why didn’t State Attorney Barry Krischer let a jury decide whether to believe the teenagers — including a 16-year-old who went to Mr. Epstein’s house to “work” in December 2004 after being asked whether she needed to make money for Christmas gifts?

Prosecutors gave greater weight to the details Mr. Dershowitz provided about the girls in an apparent effort to assail their character. Mr. Dershowitz pointed out to prosecutors that some of the teenagers had talked on myspace.com about marijuana and alcohol use.

The 20-year-old Palm Beach woman who told police she recruited girls for Mr. Epstein has a Web page on myspace.com that features one girl using the name “Pimpin’ Made EZ.”

Although no charges of witness tampering have been filed, the parents of at least one of the teenage victims complained to police of being followed and intimidated by two men. Police determined that their vehicles were registered to two private investigators. Mr. Goldberger denied knowing anything about it.

Title:

Police also note in their reports that the state attorney’s office offered Mr. Epstein a plea deal that would have placed him on probation for five years, allowing him ultimately to walk away with no criminal record at all.

I asked Mr. Krischer’s spokesman, Mike Edmondson, why the case was referred to a grand jury instead of Mr. Epstein being charged and facing a trial before a jury. And shouldn’t the victims’ credibility be a factor to determine whether a crime’s been committed, not whether a jury will convict? (After all, as Mr. Goldberger told The Palm Beach Post of Mr. Epstein, “He’s never denied girls came to the house.”)

Especially, I asked Mr. Edmondson to explain: Why shouldn’t the public look at this case and think there are two kinds of justice — one for the wealthy and one for the rest of us?

Mr. Edmondson said he could not comment on the case because it is active, but on the latter point, he offered, for the sake of “philosophical debate”: “Whether wealth buys a different standard of justice across the country … the answer to that would, of course, be yes.”

But in this case, he said, “regardless of the battery of attorneys, the outcome would be the same. Every issue that was debated in public was debated in our office before this case went to the grand jury.”

In this case, it is not the victims’ credibility but the state attorney’s that deserves questioning.

Expert: Ignorance of age isn’t defense in sex cases

By LARRY Palm Beach Post Staff Writer

Even if Palm Beach money manager Jeffrey Epstein didn’t know that girls who police say gave him sexual massages at his Intracoastal home were under the legal age, that alone wouldn’t have exempted him from criminal charges of sexual activity with minors.

“Ignorance is not a valid defense,” said Bob Dekle, a legal skills professor who was a Lake City prosecutor for nearly 30 years, half of that time specializing in sex crimes against children.

“There is no knowledge element as far as the age is concerned,” Dekle said.

After an 11-month investigation, Palm Beach police said there was probable cause to charge Epstein, 53, with unlawful sex acts with a minor

and lewd and lascivious molestation. They contend that Epstein — friend of the rich and famous and financial patron of Democratic Party organizations and candidates committed those acts with five underage girls.

his current job, has returned $10,000 to him because of the Palm Beach scandal, the New York Daily News has reported.

Rather than file charges, the state attorney’s office presented the case to a county grand jury. The panel indicted Epstein last week on a single, less serious charge of felony solicitation of prostitution.

The case raised eyebrows because the state attorney’s office rarely, if ever, kicks such charges to a grand jury. And it increases the difficulty of prosecuting child sex abuse cases, especially when the defendant is enormously wealthy and can hire highpriced, top-tier lawyers.

At least one of Epstein’s alleged victims told police he knew she was underage when the two of them got naked for massages and sexual activity. She was 16 years old at the time and said Epasked her questions about her high school, according to police reports.

A girl who said she met Epstein when she was 15 said he told her if she told anybody what happened at his house, bad things could happen, the police reports state.

Epstein’s youngest alleged victim was 14 when she says she gave him a massage that included some sexual activity. She is now 16. The girl’s father says he doesn’t know whether she told Epher age.

ļ

“My daughter has kept a lot of what happened from me because of sheer embarrassment,” he said. “But she very much looked 14. Any prudent man would have had second thoughts about that.”

Defense attorney Jack Goldberger maintains that not only did Epstein pass a polygraph test showing he did not know the girls were minors, but their stories weren’t credible. The state attorney’s office also implied that their credibility was an issue when it decided not to charge Epstein directly, but instead give the case to the grand jury.

“A prosecutor has to look at it in a much broader fashion,” a state attorney’s spokesman said last week.

Epstein hired Harvard law Professor Alan Dershowitz when he became aware he was under investigation, and Dershowitz gave prosecutors information that some of the alleged victims had spoke of using alcohol and marijuana on a popular Web site, according to a Palm Beach police report.

Prosecutors typically consider two things in deciding whether to charge somebody with sex-related offenses against minors — whether there is sufficient evidence and whether there is a public interest in doing so, Dekle said.

Child sex abuse cases often are difficult to prosecute, an attorney says.

If two teens are in a sexual relationship and the boy turns 18 before the girl, he could be charged with a sex crime if the sex continues. There would be no public interest in pursuing that, Dekle said.

But where there is a large gap in ages — and especially in cases of teachers with students — there is a public interest in prosecuting, he said. Likewise if the accused has a track record of sex with minors.

Still there is a “universal constant” in prosecuting these cases, Dekle said. Men who exploit underage children for sex often carefully choose their victims in ways that will minimize the risk to them, he said.

Victims usually are from a lower social status, and they may suffer from psychological problems, Dekle said.

“Lots of child sexual abuse victims have been victimized by multiple people over a period of time. Then the act of abuse produces behavior in the victims that further damages their credibility.” Examples include promiscuous behavior and drug abuse.

Some of the alleged victims in the Epstein case returned to his home multiple times for the massage sessions and the $200 to $300 he typically paid them per visit. “That would be a definite problem for the prosecutor,” said Betty Resch, who prosecuted crimes against children in Palm Beach County for five years and now is in private practice in Lake Worth.

“The victim becomes less sympathetic” to a jury, Resch said. “But she’s a victim nevertheless. She’s a kid.”

Most men charged with sex crimes against minors look normal, Dekle said. A jury expecting to see a monster seldom will. And the victims’ ages work against them and in favor of the defendant in a trial, Dekle said.

If a child and an adult tell different stories and both swear they’re telling the truth, adult jurors are more likely to believe the adult, Dekle said.

“You have all these things working against you in a child sex abuse case. Prosecutors normally try to be very careful in filing those cases because they know what they’re getting into. There is no such thing as an iron-clad child sexual abuse case.”

Palm Beach chief focus of fire in Epstein case

Defendant’s lawyers take him on; he slams state attorney

By LARRY i Palm Beach Post Staff Writer

In the case of Palm Beach financier Jeffrey Epit seems, at times, as if two men are accused of wrongdoing: Epstein and Palm Beach Police Chief

Michael Reiter.

Epstein, 53, was indicted last month on a charge of felony solicitation of prostitution solely because of Reiter’s “craziness,” one of Epstein’s lawyers said. His department disseminated “a distorted view of the case” and behaved in a “childish” manner when the grand jury didn’t indict Epon the charges it sought, another Epstein lawyer complained. To hear the Epstein camp tell it, Reiter, 48, is a loose cannon better suited to be the sheriff of Mayberry. They whisper that he’s embroiled in a messy divorce.

Reiter did in fact file for divorce from his wife, Jill, last year, after 24 years of marriage. They have a son, 18, and a daughter, 14. The couple is scheduled to go to mediation Wednesday. Nothing in the court file suggests their split is particularly ugly.

Reiter incurred the wrath of the Epstein camp as well as the state attor-See REITER, 7B ► Mount Clipping in Space Below)

Colleagues cite chief’s professionalism, integrity

► REITER from 1B

ney’s office for two reasons. First, he pressed for Epstein to be charged with the more serious crimes of sexual activity with minors. Second, he slammed State Attorney Barry Krischer in blunt language seldom used by one lawenforcement official concerning another because of what he perceived as that office’s mishandling of the case.

In a letter to Krischer written May 1. Reiter called his actions in the Epstein case “highly unusual.” He added, “Imust urge you to . . . consider if good and sufficient reason exists to require your disgualification from the prosecution of these cases.”

In short. Reiter told the county’s top prosecutor for the past 13 years that he ought to get off the case. “It looks like a departure from professionalism,” Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle said of Reiter’s letter.

Following Epstein’s indictment, Reiter referred the case to the FBI to determine whether the super-rich. super-connected defendant had violated any federal laws.

Reiter won’t discuss the case or the broadsides aimed at him. But others almost uniformly use one word to describe the chief: professional.

“I have always been impressed by Mike’s professionalism and his leadership,” said Rick Lincoln, chief of the Lantana Police Department and a Palm Beach County cop for 32 years.

“The town of Palm Beach has a very professional police department. We all consider Mike to be our peer and a man of integrity.”

Reiter: Town Manager Peter Elwell says the Palm Beach ary.

Juno Beach Police Chief H.C. Clark II agreed. Although he doesn’t know Reiter well, he has met with him on countywide law enforcement issues. “I’ve never seen him lose his cool. I’ve never seen anything but a professional demeanor from him.”

Reiter joined the Palm Beach Police Department in 1981, leaving a $20,000-a-year patrol job at the University of Pittsburgh. His personnel jacket shows consistently excellent job evaluations.

Posh Palm Beach is no hotbed of crime, and in his first year on the job, a resi-

dent confined to his home with a sick child thanked Reiter for delivering a few Cokes to the house. Reiter refused payment for the beverages. Another resident thanked Reiter for shutting off his car’s headlights in his driveway, saying a valet must have been at fault.

Reiter worked everything from road patrol to organized crime, vice and narcotics. And he’s no novice at investigations involving the island’s rich and famous. He was the lead detective probing the drug overdose death of David Kennedy in 1984. He also was one of the officers who worked the investigation of William Kennedy . who was charged in 1991 - and later acquitted — with raping a woman at the Kennedy family compound in Palm Beach.

Reiter, who has a degree in human resource

development from Palm Beach Atlantic University, also has attended the FBI National Academy in Quantico, Va., and management courses at Harvard. He’s been active in countywide interagency law enforcement organizations and has a “top secret” national security clearance.

“He has a perspective that’s broader than just addressing the needs of the town,” said Town Manager Peter Elwell, who promoted Reiter from assistant chief to chief in March 2001, Reiter makes more than $144,000 as the town’s top cop. Elwell thinks he’s worth it.

“He’s very businesslike, very straightforward. He’s not easily agitated or flamboyant. He’s about the work. Elwell said. “I think that his service as chief has been outstanding in five-plus years.”

Women in his life

Ghislaine Maxwell, a fixture at elite parties and the intensely private daughter of a media tycoon, dated Epstein in the 1990s.

ages of 14 and 16.

asking questions and teenage girls started talking, a wave of legal resistance followed.

If Palm Beach police didn’t know quite who Jeffrey Epstein was, they found out soon enough.

Epstein, now 53, was a quintessential man of mystery. He amassed his fortune and friends quietly, always in the background as he navigated New York high society.

When he first attracted notice in the early 1990s, it was on account of the woman he was dating: Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of the late British media tycoon Robert Maxwell.

In a lengthy article, headlined “The Mystery of Ghislaine Maxwell’s Secret Love,” the British Mail on Sunday tabloid laid out speculative stories that the socialite’s beau was a CIA spook, a math teacher, a concert pianist or a corporate headhunter.

“But what is the truth about him?” the newspaper wondered. “Like Maxwell, Epstein is both flamboyant and intensely private.”

The media frenzy did not begin in full until a decade later. In September 2002, Epstein was flung into the limelight when he flew Clinton and actors Kevin Spacey and Chris Tucker to Africa on his private jet.

Suddenly everyone wanted to know who Epstein was. New York magazine and Vanity Fair published lengthy profiles. The New York Post listed him as one of the city’s most eligible bachelors and began describing him in its gossip columns with adjectives such as “mysterious” and “reclusive.”

Although Epstein gave no interviews, the broad strokes of his past started to come into focus.

Building a life of extravagance

He was born blue-collar in 1953 the son of a New York City department employee, and raised in Brooklyn’s Coney Island neighborhood. He left college without a bachelor’s degree but became a math teacher at the prestigious Dalton School in Manhattan.

The story goes that the father of one of Epstein’s students was so impressed with the man that he put him in touch with a senior partner at Bear Stearns, the global investment bank and securities firm.

In 1976, Epstein left Dalton for a job at Bear Stearns. By the early 1980s, he had started J. Epstein and Co. That is when he began making his millions in earnest, Little is known or said about Epstein’s business except this: He manages money for the extremely wealthy. He is said to handle accounts only of $1 billion or greater.

It has been estimated he has roughly 15 clients, but their identities are the subject of only speculation. All except for one: Leslie Wexner, founder of The Limited retail chain and a former Palm Beacher who is said to have been a mentor to Epstein.

Wexner sold Epstein one of his most lavish residences: a massive townhouse that dominates a block on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. It is reported to have, among its finer features, closed-circuit television and a heated sidewalk to melt away fallen snow.

That townhouse, thought to be the largest private residence in Manhattan, is only a piece of the extravagant world Epstein built over time.

In New Mexico, he constructed a 27,000-square-foot hilltop mansion on a 10,000-acre ranch outside Santa Fe. Many believed it to be the largest home in the state.

In Palm Beach, he bought a waterfront home on El Brillo Way. And he owns a 100-acre private island in the Virgin Islands.

Perhaps as remarkable as his lavish homes is his extensive network of friends and associates at the highest echelons of power. This includes not only socialites but also business tycoons, media moguls, politicians, royalty and Nobel Prizewinning scientists whose research he often funds.

“Just like other people collect art, he collects scientists,” said Nowak, who directs the Program for Evolutionary Dynamics at Harvard University and was reportedly the recipient of a $30 million research donation from Epstein.

Epstein is said to have befriended former Harvard President Larry Summers, prominent law Professor Alan Dershowitz, Donald Trump and New York Daily News Publisher Mort Zuckerman.

And yet he managed for decades to maintain a low profile. He avoids eating out and was rarely photographed. “The odd thing is I never met him,” said Dominick Dunne, the famous chronicler of the trials and tribulations of the very rich. “I wasn’t even aware of him,” except for, a Vanity Fair article.

Epstein’s friendship with Clinton has attracted the most attention.

Epstein met Clinton as early as 1995, when he paid tens of thousands of dollars to join him at an intimate fund-raising dinner in Palm Beach. But from all appearances, they did not become close friends until after Clinton left the Oval Office and moved to New York.

Epstein has donated more than $100,000 to Democratic candidates’ campaigns, including John Kerry’s presidential bid, the reelection campaign of New Mexico Gov. Bill the senate bids of Joe Line and the Senate bids of Joe Line and the Senate bids of Line Dodd and Charles Schumer.

Powerful friends and enemies

A Vanity Fair profile found cracks in the veneer of Epstein’s life story. The 2003 article said he left Bear Stearns in the wake of a federal probe and a possible Securities and Exchange Commission violation. It also pointed out that Citibank once sued him for defaulting on a $20 million loan.

The article suggested that one of his business mentors and previous employers was Steven Hoffenberg, now serving a prison term after “bilking investors out of more than $450 million in one of the largest Ponzi schemes in American history.”

As he amassed his wealth, Epstein made enemies in disputes both large and small. He sued the man who in 1990 sold him his multimillion-dollar Palm Beach home over a dispute about less than $5,6,000 in furnishings.

wrmer friend claimed Epstein E ed out of a promise to reimburse him hundreds of thousands of dollars after their failed investment in Texas oil wells. A judge decided Epstein owed him nothing.

“It’s a bad memory. I would rather not have ever met Jeffrey Epstein,” said Michael Stroll, the retired former president of Electronics and Sega Corp. “Suffice it to say I have nothing good to say about him.”

Among the characteristics most attributed to Epstein is a penchant for women.

He has been linked to Maxwell, a fixture on the high-society party circuits in both New York and London. Previous girlfriends are said to include a former Ms. Sweden and a Romanian model.

“He’s a lot of fun to be with,” Donald Trump told New York magazine in 2002. “It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it, Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”

Investigation leads to Epstein

Although he was not a frequenter of the Palm Beach social scene, he made his presence felt. Among his charitable donations, he gave $90,000 to the Palm Beach Police Department and $100,000 to Ballet Florida.

In Palm Beach, he lived in luxury. Three black Mercedes sat in his garage, alongside a Harley-Davidson. His jet waited at a hangar at Palm Beach International Airport. At home, a private chef and a small staff stood at the ready. From a window in his mansion, he could look out on the Intracoastal Waterway and the West Palm Beach skyline. He seemed to be a man who had everything.

But extraordinary wealth can

fuel extraordinary desires.

In March 2005, a worried mother contacted Palm Beach police. She said another parent had overheard a conversation between their children.

Now the mother was afraid her 14-year-old daughter had been molested by a man on the island.

The phone call triggered an extensive investigation, one that would lead detectives to Epstein but leave them frustrated.

Palm Beach police and the state attorney’s office have declined to discuss the case. But a Palm Beach police report detailing the criminal probe offers a window into what detectives faced as they sought to close in on Epstein.

Detectives interviewed the girl, who told them a friend had invited her to a rich man’s house to perform a massage. She said the friend told her to say she was 18 if asked. At the house, she said she was paid $300 after stripping to her panties and massaging the man while he masturbated.

Police interview 5 alleged victims

The investigation began in full after the girl identified Epstein in a photo as the man who had paid her. Police arranged for garbage trucks to set aside Epstein’s trash so police could sift through it. They set up a video camera to record the comings and goings at his home. They monitored an airport hangar for signs of his private jet’s arrivals and departures.

They quickly learned that the woman who took the 14-year-old girl to Epstein’s house was Haley Robson, a Palm Beach Community College student from Loxahatchee. In a sworn statement at police headquarters, then 18, admitted she had taken at least six girls to visit Epstein, all between the ages of 14 and 16. Epstein paid her for each visit, she said.

During the drive back to her house, burget to told detectives, “I’m like a Heidi Fleiss.”

Police interviewed five alleged victims and 17 witnesses. Their report shows some of the girls said they had been instructed to have sex with another woman in front of Epstein, and one said she had direct intercourse with him.

In October, police searched the Palm Beach mansion. They discovered photos of naked, young-looking females, just as several of the girls had described in interviews. Hidden cameras were found in the garage area and inside a clock on Epstein’s desk, alongside a girl’s high school transcript. Two of Epstein’s former employees told investigators that young-looking girls showed up to perform massages two or three times a day when Epstein was in town.

They said the girls were permitted many indulgences. A chef cooked for them. Workers gave them rides and handed out hundreds of dollars at a time.

One employee told detectives he was told to send a dozen roses to one teenage girl after a high school drama performance. Others were given rental cars. One, according to police, received a $200 Christmas bonus.

The cops moved to cement their case. But as they tried to tighten the noose, they encountered other forces at work.

In Orlando they interviewed a possible victim who told them nothing inappropriate had happened between her and Epstein. They asked her whether she had spoken to anyone else. She said yes, a private investigator had asked her the same questions.

When they subpoenaed one of Epstein’s former employees, he told them the same thing. He and a private eye had met at a restaurant days earlier to go over what the man would tell investigators.

Detectives received complaints that private eyes were posing as police officers. When they told Epstein’s local attorney, Guy Fronstin, he said the investigators worked for Roy Black, the high-powered Miami lawyer who has defended the likes of Rush Limbaugh and William Kennedy

While the private eyes were conducting a parallel investigation, Dershowitz, the Harvard law professor, traveled to West Palm Beach with information about the girls. From their own profiles on the popular Web site MySpace.com, he obtained copies of their discussions about their use of alcohol and marijuana.

He took his research to a meeting with prosecutors in early 2006, where he sought to cast doubt on the teens’ reliability.

• The private eyes had dug up

enough dirt on the girls to make prosecutors skeptical. Not only did some of the girls have issues with drugs or alcohol but also some had criminal records and other troubles, Epstein’s legal team claimed. And at least one of them, they said, lied when she told police she was younger than 18 when she started performing massages for Epstein.

After the meeting, prosecutors postponed their decision to take the case to a grand jury.

In the following weeks, police received complaints that two of the victims or their families had been harassed or threatened. Epstein’s legal team maintains that its private investigators did nothing illegal or unethical during their research.

By then, relations’ between police and prosecutors were fraying. At a key meeting with prosecutors and the defense, Detective . Recarey, the lead investigator, was a no-show, according to Epstein’s attorney.

“The embarrassment on the prosecutor’s face was evident when the police officer never showed up for the meeting,” attorney Jack Goldberger said.

Later in April, Recarey walked into a prosecutor’s office at the state attorney’s office and learned the case was taking an unexpected turn.

The prosecutor, Lanna Belohlavek, told Recarey the state attorney’s office had offered Epstein a plea deal that would not require him to serve jail time or receive a felony conviction.

Recarey told her he disapproved of the plea offer.

The deal never came to pass, however.

Future unclear after charge

On May 1, the department asked prosecutors to approve warrants to arrest Epstein on four counts of unlawful sexual activity with a minor and to charge his personal assistant, now 27, for her alleged role in arranging the visits. Police officials also wanted to charge Robson, the self-described H. idi Fleiss, with lewd and lascivious acts.

By then, the department was frustrated with the way the state attorney’s office had handled the case. On the same day the warrants were requested, Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter wrote a letter to State Attorney Barry Krischer suggesting he disqualify himself from the case if he would not act. Two weeks later, Recarey was told that prosecutors had decided once again to take the case to the grand jury.

It is not known how many of the girls testified before the grand jury. But Epstein’s defense team said one girl who was subpoenaed — the one who said she had sexual intercourse with Epstein — never showed up.

The grand jury’s indictment was handed down in July. It was not the one the police department had wanted.

Instead of being slapped with a charge of unlawful sexual activity with a minor, Epstein was charged with one count of felony solicitation of prostitution, which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison. He was booked into the Palm Beach County Jail early July 23 and released hours later.

Epstein’s legal team “doesn’t dispute that he had girls over for massages,” Goldberger said. But he said their claims that they had sexual encounters with him lack credibility.

“They are incapable of being believed,” he said. “They had criminal records. They had accusations of theft made against them by their employers. There was evidence of drug use by some of them.”

What remains for Epstein is yet to be seen.

The Palm Beach Police Department has asked the FBI to investigate the case. It also has returned the $90,000 Epstein donated in 2004.

In New York, candidates for governor and state attorney general have vowed to return a total of at least $60,000 in campaign contributions from Epstein. Meanwhile, Epstein’s powerful friends have remained silent as tabloids and Internet blogs feast on the public details of the police investigation.

Goldberger maintains Epstein’s innocence but says the legal team has not ruled out a future plea deal. He insists Epstein will emerge in the end with his reputation untarnished.

“He will recover from this,” he said.

Epstein camp calls female accusers liars

By LARRY Palm Beach Post Staff Writer

Attorneys and publicists for Palm Beach financier Jeffrey Epstein went on the offensive Monday, contending that teenage girls who have accused Epstein of sexual shenanigans at his waterfront home are liars and saying that the Palm Beach Police Department is “childish.”

“There never was any sex between Jeffrey Epstein and

Epstein did have young women come to his house to give him massages, Goldberger said. “Mr. Epstein absolutely insisted anybody who came to his house be over the age of 18. How he verified that, I don’t know. The question is, did anything illegal occur. The law was not violated here.”

He had no explanation as to why Epstein would pay girls or women with no massage training — as the alleged victims said was the case - $200 to $300 for their visits. “The credibility of these witnesses has been seriously questioned,” Goldberger said.

Epstein, 53, was indicted by a county grand jury last month on a charge of felony solicitation of prostitution. After an 11-month investigation that included sifting through Epstein’s trash and surveilling his home. Palm Beach police concluded there was enough evidence to charge him with sexual activity with minors. When the grand jury indicted Epstein on the less serious

charge, Police Chief Michael Reiter referred the case to the FBI to determine whether there were federal law violations.

After a spate of stories about the case last week. New York publicist Dan Klores whose client list has included Paris Hilton and Jennifer - said on Saturday that Epcamp was ready “to get their story out.”

Attorney: Police gave media ‘distorted view’

EPSTEIN from 1B

They did that Monday via Goldberger and a Los Angeles publicist for Miami criminal defense attorney Roy Black, who also has represented Epstein in the case.

“We just think there has been a distorted view of this case in the media presented by the Palm Beach police,” Goldberger said.

Reiter has consistently declined to comment on the case and did not respond to a request for comment Monday.

The implication that State Attorney Barry Krischer was easy on Epby presenting the case to a grand jury rather than filing charges directly against him is wrong, Goldberger said.

The Palm Beach Police Department was “happy and ecstatic” that the panel was going to review the evidence. “I think what happened is they weren’t happy with the result. They decided to use the press to embarrass Mr. Epstein.”

But records show that Reiter wrote Krischer on May 1 — well before the case went to the grand jury suggesting that Krischer “consider if good and sufficient reason exists to require your disqualification from the prosecution of these cases.”

Rather than flat-out decline to charge Epstein, Krischer referred the case to the grand jury to “appease” the chief, Goldberger said.

A state attorney’s spokesman would say only that the office refers cases to the grand jury when there are issues with the viability of the evidence or witnesses’ credibility.

Both the state attorney and the grand jury concluded there was not sufficient evidence that Epstein had sex with minors, according to Goldberger. “It was just a childish performance by the Palm Beach Police Department,” Goldberger said.

The defense attorney said one of the alleged victims who claimed she was a minor was in fact over the age of 18. Another alleged victim who was subpoenaed to testify to the grand jury failed to do so. Epstein’s

accusers, he added, have histories of drug abuse and thefts. “These women are liars. We’ve established that.”

But why would they all invent their stories about meeting Epstein for sexual massages?

“I don’t have an answer as to what was the motivation for these women to come forward and make these allegations,” Goldberger said.
