This document reveals serious misconduct by federal prosecutors, particularly Assistant U.S. Attorney David Weinstein, who leaked confidential information about the Epstein case to the media, undermining the integrity of the investigation. It also highlights potential corruption and the influence of political and financial motivations in the decision-making process regarding Epstein's prosecution.
- Assistant U.S. Attorney David Weinstein spoke about the case in great detail to Landon Thomas, a reporter with the New York Times, and revealed confidential information about the Government’s allegations against Mr. Epstein.
- Mr. Weinstein told Mr. Thomas that federal authorities believed that Mr. Epstein had lured girls over the telephone and traveled in interstate commerce for the purpose of engaging in underage sex.
- We are constrained to conclude that the actions of federal officials in this case strike at the heart of one of the vitally important, enduring values in this country: the honest enforcement of federal law, free of political considerations and free of the taint of personal financial motivations.
