From: " To: ' Subject: RE: 20090917 Epstein Article.pdf Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2009 17:10:03 +0000 Importance: Normal To the extent that we do want to say anything, I think (based upon earlier conversations with Alex) that our Office's position was that this started as a state case and Alex wanted it to stay a state case, but to provide for minimum protections for the victims, both in terms of jail time and compensation — in other words, this was a floor, not a ceiling. My personal opinion was that Alex wanted Barry Krischer to save face, but Alex never said that openly to me.
