Just taking a shot to see if anyone has any info on this book. My guess is it is pretty rare. Not rare like expensive, but not too many around like it anymore. I tried to do some research but wasn't able to come up with much. I also thought it was kind of cool, so I wanted to share. Thanks in advance for looking and any possible info.
Jeffery Epstein is a wealthy financier who in 2008 was convinced on a single state charge of "soliciting prostitution from girls as young as 14." [Some sources cite two charges]
His 2008 deal signed by current Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta included certain benefits:
> ...the multimillionaire was assigned to a private wing of the Palm Beach County stockade, where he was able to hire his own security detail. Even then, he didn’t spend much time in a cell. He was allowed to go to his downtown West Palm Beach office for work release, up to 12 hours a day, six days a week, records show.
Additionally, the Miami Herald reports Acosta's non-prosecution agreement "essentially shut down" an ongoing FBI probe into linked crimes and victims, may have granted immunity to potential co-conspirators that were left unnamed, and that Acosta may also have violated Federal law when he failed to notify victims of Epstein of this deal:
> Not only would Epstein serve just 13 months in the county jail, but the deal — called a non-prosecution agreement — essentially shut down an ongoing FBI probe into whether there were more victims and other powerful people who took part in Epstein’s sex crimes, according to a Miami Herald examination of thousands of emails, court documents and FBI records.
> The pact required Epstein to plead guilty to two prostitution charges in state court. Epstein and four of his accomplices named in the agreement received immunity from all federal criminal charges. But even more unusual, the deal included wording that granted immunity to “any potential co-conspirators’’ who were also involved in Epstein’s crimes. These accomplices or participants were not identified in the agreement, leaving it open to interpretation whether it possibly referred to other influential people who were having sex with underage girls at Epstein’s various homes or on his plane.
> As part of the arrangement, Acosta agreed, despite a federal law to the contrary, that the deal would be kept from the victims. As a result, the non-prosecution agreement was sealed until after it was approved by the judge, thereby averting any chance that the girls — or anyone else — might show up in court and try to derail it.
There were 36 victims cited

As Lindsey Graham used to?
I have been trying all I could to make my Max Sec dudes behave but nothing seems to work. They eat high quality food, they have all the amenities of a modern day house in their cells, Im also financing all the reform programs the game provides but its simply not enough.
Is there a way to do a reform prison for Max Sec or is it punishment and suppression the only way to go?
You know, for personal usage. If you cite which exact article it is, the more effective your argument will be. And also, does it actually exist? I searched for it and I couldn't find anything convincing. Thx
But didn't the character in the book feel so tormented by his crime that he turned himself in?
