I will forward it to you. Here are the issues that Rolando and I specifically discussed with them and rejected. that they have re-inserted into the agreement. I. We agree to recommend that no PSI be prepared. 2. They have converted it into an ABA plea — as though we wouldn't notice? 3. They want us to agree to the incorrect calculation of the guidelines 4. Instead of agreeing that the girls can sue Epstein, they cannot sue him and instead are bound to apply to a trust administered by the State Court (Jay and I have addressed this at least three times and it keeps appearing in his versions) 5. They changed the state charge that he has to plead guilty to to a non-registrable offense and he doesn't have to plead to that charge until after he has finished serving his federal sentence. 6. They want us not to oppose a request for a prison camp designation. 7. They have re-added paragraphs 17 through 19, all of which are addressed by paragraph 2. There are other problems too, but these are the highlights. This is NOT good faith negotiations. A.

Good job. A few thoughts: I would eliminate the first sentence of pare 2. Is there another way to deal with the issue in para 3 without this in the plea agreement ? Do we need para 10? Isn't para 11 sufficient without 10? Is it our place to include para 13 in this agreement? I think it belongs in the state agreement and it looks out of place here. I think you should include Roy or another member of the FL Bar on the plea agreement so we are not slowed down at the last minute by Pro Hac stuff. From: Villafana, Ann Marie C.

Barry and 'Anna and Epstein's attorneys are coining to our office on Monday to finalize everything with the plan of getting him at least arraigned on Monday afternoon.
