The defense had argued 66-year-old Epstein should be allowed to await trial under house arrest with electronic monitoring at his $77 million Manhattan mansion. They said he wouldn’t run and was willing to pledge a fortune of at least $559 million as collateral.

The judge said he also rejected bail because Epstein presents a flight risk, in part because of his access to private jets, his frequent travel, including to foreign countries, and his home in Paris.

Another factor in Berman’s decision was the “compelling testimony” by two of Epstein’s accusers during a bail hearing earlier this week when they said “they fear for their safety and the safety of others if he is released.”

Florida Sen. Lauren Book has reached out to Capitol police after receiving an anonymous warning connected to her demand for a state inquiry into Palm Beach Sheriff Ric Bradshaw’s handling of accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s lenient work release program, the Miami Herald has learned.

Book, a vocal advocate for child sexual assault survivors, said she also received more than a dozen calls from Bradshaw’s political supporters asking her to back off on her call for an investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement into Bradshaw.

On Monday, Book, a Democrat, wrote a letter to Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis asking him to authorize a probe into how Epstein, accused of molesting dozens of underage girls and a registered sex offender, was permitted to leave the Palm Beach County Jail and spend much of his 2008-2009 incarceration in an office in West Palm Beach.

DeSantis said Thursday after a Cabinet meeting that he would “certainly consider” an investigation but that he has yet to decide how the state should respond.

“I saw someone sent me a letter. I looked at it,” he said. “I’ve got to figure out what the proper role of FDLE [is]. I know they are investigating it down in Palm Beach. ... Clearly when you look at how that happened, if even like 10 percent of the things about him are true, then that whole agreement was obviously suspect and willfully below what he should have faced.”

While the governor was still weighing the merits of the senator’s request, the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office issued a new statement that its previously announced internal affairs investigation of the deputies who guarded and supervised Epstein during his work release had become a criminal investigation as well. No further elaboration was provided.

Meanwhile, Book, in an interview with the Herald, said she had asked the Capitol police, who handle security for state lawmakers, to look into claims made on a Russian website alleging that Bradshaw was behind an effort to access her phone and emails by using the pretext of “imminent danger’’ to obtain her personal information.

“I’ve received countless phone calls saying ‘Little girl you don’t know what you’re getting into,’ and telling me that I should just stop,’’ said Book, a child sexual abuse survivor herself who has worked to pass strict sex offender laws in Florida.

In a statement, PBSO said it had no knowledge of anyone trying to threaten or pressure Book.

Bedreigt worden omdat je opheldering wil over zijn straf, de beerput gaat diep. Zal de zaak van 2008 alsnog verdere gevolgen krijgen? Eerst maar het interne onderzoek afwachten va Palm Beach office zelf. Maar elke weldenkend persoon zal daar sowieso zijn vraagtekens bij hebben, zeker als je ziet wat er allemaal mocht tijdens zijn straf.

quote:

A federal judge overseeing the sex-trafficking case against Jeffrey E. Epstein set a tentative trial date for next June during the financier’s first court appearance since he was discovered unconscious in his jail cell in what prison officials were investigating as a possible suicide attempt.

The brief hearing on Wednesday morning ended without mention of the July 23 incident at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, where Mr. Epstein was found passed out in his jail cell with marks on his neck.

The authorities have yet to explain what happened to Mr. Epstein. It remains unclear whether he attempted suicide or was attacked by another inmate.

Martin G. Weinberg, one of Mr. Epstein’s attorneys, asked the judge for 13 months to review the more than one million discovery documents that are expected to surface. Judge Richard M. Berman of Federal District Court in Manhattan set a tentative trial date for June 8, 2020.

A tired-looking Mr. Epstein rested his chin on his folded hands as Judge Berman spoke.

Mr. Epstein, 66, has been housed at the federal jail in Lower Manhattan since his arrest on July 6 at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey after a flight from Paris.

On July 18, Judge Berman denied the former financier’s request to be granted bail and to await trial under house arrest in his $56 million mansion on the Upper East Side; Mr. Epstein even offered to pay for 24-hour security guards to ensure he did not flee.

Judge Berman found that Mr. Epstein’s “past sexual conduct is not likely to have abated,” and he expressed concern that if Mr. Epstein were released, he would continue to abuse teenage girls. The judge also concluded that Mr. Epstein was a risk to flee, citing his “vast wealth,” which prosecutors have placed at more than $500 million, including private planes and residences in New York, Paris and the Caribbean.

Questions about Mr. Epstein’s health arose after he was found last Tuesday injured and unconscious on the floor of his cell, with bruising around his neck. His injuries were not serious, one law enforcement official said at the time; and another person briefed on the matter said officials had not ruled out the possibility that he had been assaulted by another inmate or had staged the incident. Officials had not commented about the episode.

Mr. Epstein had been housed in a cell with Nicholas Tartaglione, a former police officer facing murder charges, in a special unit with strict security measures intended to separate certain inmates from the jail’s general population. A lawyer for Mr. Tartaglione, Bruce Barket, said last week that Mr. Tartaglione and Mr. Epstein got along well, and “any insinuation that he had assaulted Mr. Epstein is a complete and utter fabrication.”

Het is dus in die zin niet de NYTimes die het lager schat en ook niet dan alle andere bronnen, maar de afdeling financiën van de stad New York. Misschien dat ze hier voor kiezen, omdat het in berichtgeving een iets neutralere bron is dan de openbaar aanklager in geval van een rechtszaak al weet ik dat niet zeker. Misschien dat een journalist hierover wat kan zeggen?

Under fire for his decision to let Jeffrey Epstein out on work release despite dozens of sexual abuse allegations, Palm Beach Sheriff Ric Bradshaw has called for a review of his jail’s work release program — not by an independent law enforcement agency, but by a panel of Palm Beach politicians and business people.

quote:

Keypoints:

• Jeffrey Epstein misappropriated more than $46 million from L Brands founder and chairman Les Wexner and his family, Wexner told members of his charitable foundation in a letter.

• “I am embarrassed that, like so many others, I was deceived by Mr. Epstein,” wrote Wexner about the former friend of President Donald Trump and Bill Clinton. Wexner’s company own Victoria’s Secret and Bath & Body Works.

• The wealthy financier Epstein is accused by federal prosecutors of sex trafficking underage girls whom he allegedly abused in his New York and Florida homes.

quote:

When compliance officers at JPMorgan Chase conducted a sweep of their wealthy clients a decade ago, they recommended that the bank cut its ties to the financier Jeffrey E. Epstein because his accounts posed unacceptable legal and reputational risks.

Yet Mr. Epstein, who had been charged with sex crimes and pleaded guilty in 2008 to solicitation of prostitution, remained a JPMorgan client until 2013.

The main reason, according to six former senior executives and other bank employees familiar with the matter, was that Mary C. Erdoes, one of JPMorgan’s highest-ranking executives, intervened to keep him as a client.

Part of her rationale was that Mr. Epstein played a lucrative role recruiting new customers to JPMorgan’s private-banking division, which caters to ultra-wealthy people and families, the six employees said. That made him an especially coveted client.

The episode is another example of how powerful institutions and individuals, eager to profit from Mr. Epstein and his network of wealthy acquaintances, looked past his criminal history and sex offender status. As a result, he managed to retain crucial business connections even as, prosecutors said in a federal indictment last month, he engaged in the sexual trafficking of girls as young as 14.

Mr. Epstein, a JPMorgan client for about 15 years, is being held without bail in a Manhattan jail. He has pleaded not guilty to the sex-trafficking charges. His lawyers did not respond to requests for comment.

Joseph Evangelisti, a JPMorgan spokesman, disputed The New York Times’s reporting. “Mary would never overrule our compliance team or other controls functions to retain a customer,” he said. “She has only one recollection of formally meeting with the customer, which was the day she fired him as a client.”

Ms. Erdoes, viewed within JPMorgan as a potential successor to Jamie Dimon, the longtime chief executive, was not alone in making the case for Mr. Epstein inside the bank.

James E. Staley, who ran the bank’s asset-management division, which included the private bank, from 2001 to 2009, built JPMorgan’s relationship with Mr. Epstein.

quote:

After being expelled by JPMorgan, Mr. Epstein moved his business to Deutsche Bank, where he opened dozens of accounts. Compliance officers at the German bank raised concerns about Mr. Epstein and transactions that they regarded as suspicious, and they tried to get the bank to end its relationship with him. Executives overruled their concerns.

Deutsche Bank stopped doing business with Mr. Epstein in June 2019.

Ms. Erdoes, who joined JPMorgan in 1996, remains in charge of the asset-management division, which has more than $2 trillion in assets. She also has a seat on JPMorgan’s powerful operating committee.
