In reply to the discussion: For 'client' Jeffrey Epstein, an unlocked cell in a Florida jail (WP) [View all]dalton99a
(81,443 posts)25. Records are already gone
The deputies also filed shift reports. In hundreds of reports reviewed by the Post, the deputies recorded the number of visitors Epstein received during their shifts but not the names of the visitors. The visitor log that contained those names was destroyed by the Sheriffs Office as part of routine records purges allowed under Florida law, Barbera said. However, the deputies shift reports were not destroyed.
As part of his work release, Epstein was allowed to visit his doctors, meet with his probation officer and look for new office space. As he neared the end of his sentence, he was also allowed to work from his waterfront home in Palm Beach between 12:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m.
Although sheriff officials have denied that Epstein received special treatment, Bradshaw announced on Friday that he had opened an internal affairs investigation into Epsteins supervision at his office after a lawyer for more than a dozen of Epsteins accusers said Epstein had sex with at least one young woman while he was on work release.
I dont know if any of his visitors were underage but I do know he was able to have visitors under the age of 21 and the information weve received from victims, including one who personally visited him, it was for improper sexual conduct, said attorney Bradley Edwards during a press conference in New York on July 16.
Edwards insisted Epstein was a well behaved inmate because he wasnt forced to change his ways. He wasnt going to the foundation to work, he said.
He was not conducting scientific research, Edwards said. He engaged in similar conduct (that was alleged by Palm Beach police in 2006 and recently by federal prosecutors in New York while he was quote, unquote, in jail.

Definitely a huge positive correlation between money and good treatment in the 'justice'
