of guilty to violations of Florida Statutes Sections 796.07 (felony solicitation of prostitution)
and 796.03 (procurement of minors to engage in prostitution), in the 15th Judicial Circuit in
and for Palm Beach County (Case Nos. 2006-cf-009454A)OXXMB and 2008-cf-
00938 lAXXXMB) and was sentenced to a term of twelve months' imprisonment to be
followed by eighteen months' of Community Control 1, the first six months of which must
be served iniprisoned at the Palm Beach County Detention Facility.
In light of the entry of the guilty plea and sentence, the United States has agreed to
defer federal prosecution in favor of this state plea and sentence, subject to certain
conditions.
One such condition to which Epstein has agreed is the following:
"Any person, who while a minor, was a victim of a violation of an offense
enumerated in Title 18, United States Code, Section 2255, will have the same
rights to proceed under Section 2255 as she would have had, if Mr. Epstein
had been tried federally and convicted of an enumerated offense. For purposes
of implementing this paragraph, the United States shall provide Mr. Epstein's
attorneys with a list of individuals whom it was prepared to name in an
Indictment as victims of an enumerated offense by Mr. Epstein. Any judicial
authority interpreting this provision, including any authority determining
which evidentiary burdens if any a plaintiff must meet, shall consider that it is
the intent of the parties to place these identified victims in the same position
as they would have been had Mr. Epstein been convicted at trial. No more; no
less."
