Epstein is a registered offender in Florida, where he pleaded guilty and served a 13-month sentence for procuring a person younger than 18 for prostitution and felony solicitation of prostitution. Then-U.S. Attorney for Miami, Alex Acosta granted him a federal non-prosecution agreement. Acosta resigned as Secretary of the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) last month amid criticism over his previous handling of Epstein’s case.
