More than 150 pages of previously sealed grand jury testimonies about sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein are online, thanks to recent legislation and the promptness of Palm Beach Clerk Joe Abruzzo.
Abruzzo’s office published transcripts from a 2008 case against Epstein, who secured a “sweetheart deal” to serve just 13 months in jail until his 2019 re-arrest and apparent suicide.
Included are grand jury interviews of teens Epstein molested at his mansion. One was 14 at the time of the crimes. Epstein was in his 50s.
In several exchanges, prosecutor Lanna Belohlavek and jurors undermined the witnesses, implying they were prostitutes.
