American news publication
The Daily Beast was the first major outlet to investigate Jeffrey Epstein's 2008 plea deal, with journalist Conchita Sarnoff publishing a groundbreaking six-part investigation in 2010-2011 that exposed how his legal team and connections enabled him to avoid serious prosecution.
The Daily Beast appears primarily as the publication that broke the story of Epstein's lenient plea deal and systematically documented his abuse of underage girls. Multiple documents reference The Daily Beast's reporting, particularly Sarnoff's investigative articles that revealed details about his systematic abuse at his Palm Beach mansion and the legal maneuvering that saved him from a long prison term. The publication also reported on Epstein's continued socializing with elites like Bill Clinton, Katie Couric, and Woody Allen after his 2008 conviction. Several mentions appear in emails where scientists like Lawrence Krauss were confronted by readers about being quoted in The Daily Beast defending Epstein.
