8. Michael Reiter told this story years ago, I remember reading it when Epstein was still alive

Someone from the DoJ came to him and told him to drop the (local) case on Epstein because he had contacts with the CIA and Mossad. Supposedly the stuff Epstein was involved in were spy network stings and the local law enforcement had to leave him alone.

So Reiter turned his evidence over to someone in DoJ and it became Alex Acosta's problem. But all Acosta did was treat the entire thing with kid gloves, and he allowed Epstein to plead to a minor charge with no trial. They shut down the discovery and no victims or potential witnesses were told until after it was litigated and closed. Epstein got a slap on the wrist, and told "Naughty boy, don't do this again."
