Bill Clinton, Prince
Andrew and Donald Tiump, but investment banker Jeffrey Epstein will call the Palm Beach County jail borne for the next

The foundation was incorporated in November and lists its address as Goldbetger's West Palm Beachoffice. Epstein said
he already has awarded
money to Harvard and MIT.
When he is released from jail. there is a chance that Epstein will be forced to move. Sex offenders are not allowed to live within 1.000
feet of a
school park or other areas where children may gather. No determination has been made as to whether Epstem's home complies, but attorneys
said it
likely does.
Sex offenders also typically must attend couwelins sessions. Belohla vek said that was waived for Epstein because his
private psychiatrist is working
with him. Judge Pao go was skeptical, but agreed to it.
Epstein's conduct with underage girls doesn't end with today's plea. There are four pending federal civil lawsuits
and one in state court related to his
behavior. At least one woman has sued him in Ncw York. where he owns a 51,000 sq uare-foot Manhattan mansion.
"We think this is an extremely important event that will help the civil cases: said Miami attorney Jeffrey Herman,
who represents the alleged victims
in the federal lawsuits. ifs validation of what we're saying in the eivi cases?
West Palm Beach attorney Ted Leopold represents one alleged victim in a civil suit in state court. He said he anticipates
amending that lawsuit to add
"a few other clients' as well.
In the criminal case, police went so far as to scour Epstein's trash and conduct surveillance at Palm Beach International
Airport, where they watched
for his private jet so they would know when he was in town. They concluded that Epstein paid girls $200 to 5300
each after the massage session
"fm like a Heidi Fleiss," Haley Robson, now 22. told police about her efforts in recruiting teenage girls for Epstein.
There was probable cause to charge Epstein with unlawful sex acts with a minor and lewd and lascivious molestation,
police concluded. They also
wanted charges brought against Robson and a woman who was Epstein's personal assistant. They were not charged.
The state attorneys office said that questions about the girls' credibility led it to take the unprecedented step ofpresenting
the evidence against
Epstein to a grand jury. rather than directly charging him.
Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter was furious with Slate Attorney Barry Krischer, saying in a May 2006
letter that the prosecutor should
disqualify himself. "I continue to find your office's treatment of these cases highly unusual." he wrote.
He then asked for and got a federal
investigation. He did not maniacal' asking for comment
Epstein hired a phalanx ofhigh-priced lawyers • including Harvard law professor and author Alan
Dershowits - and public relations people who
questioned Rciteds competence and the victims' truthfulness.
In addition to mansions in Palm Beach and Manhattan, Epstein owns homes in New Mexico and
the Virgin Lslands lies a frequent comnbutor to
Democratic Party canditioes. He also donated 530 million to Harvard University in 2003.
Former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer returned a 550,000 campaign contribution Rom Epstein after

Motion on June 12, 2009. The Court has reviewed the motion
, responses, and replies where
filed, and is otherwise hilly advised in the premesis.
The Court previously entered an Order denying Defendant's
motion to stay, and the Court
incorporates by reference its previous Order. See DE
33 in 08-80119, entered August 5, 2008.
Defendant's renewed motion alleges that the civil actions
filed against Defendant should be
stayed because Epstein's defense of the civil actions violate
s the Non-Prosecution Agreement
between Epstein and the United States (the "NPA").
The Court has reviewed the NPA in
camera. The Court has also considered argument from
counsel and representations from the
United States on the matter. Based upon the representation
s of the United States, Epstein's
proceeding in the normal course of defending the civil
actions will not constitute a breach of the
NM. To the extent that the NPA limits the actions Epstein
may take in defending these cases, he
is aware of those limitations and can conduct himself
accordingly. Thus, the Court sees no
reason to modify its earlier ruling. Accordingly, it is
hereby
ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that Defendant's Motion
to Stay ODE 65 in 08.80119) is
DENIED.
DONE AND ORDERED in Chambers at West Palm
Beach, Palm Beach County,
