More than 30 women accused the financier of sexually abusing them as teenagers, but the deal he cut with then-U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta’s office allowed him to plead guilty to two lesser charges.

Acosta was the US attorney. He made a sweetheart deal. The question is why. Who told him to do it, that's what I would be asking, because someone very high up obviously ordered him to basically let Epstein off and break the law by not informing the victims.
Acosta is a piece of shit. I wonder how much money Acosta made.
Alexander Acosta looks like an alien from space!
Isn't it interesting that no news source, including ABC, mentions Ghislaine Maxwell? Charging Epstein without charging her is like arresting Burke and not Hare, Bonnie and not Clyde, Frank and not Jesse James. Very curious.
MSM has covered up for this guy for 15 years. Now there all aghast. Clintons 26 trips to the island are documented they say NOTHING.
Acosta's father helped Epstein early in his career. He should not have been involved in that decision, conflict of interest.
WHY ARE NEWS MEDIA NOT REPORTING THE FBI IS SEEKING VICTIMS OF THIS CRIME! POST THIS LINK ON ALL OF YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA PAGES!@t
Yes, victims please come forward so that you can get victimized all over by the old boys network who will let your attacker go with a slap on the wrist. Shame on you Mr. Acosta!
This is a big reason I never wanted to become a lawyer. Your morals and obligation to justice take a back seat to too many things.
Why does he get any deals?
Lies, lies, lies. I don't believe anything this man says. This only proves the wealthy live in a different America than we do. Double standards. Acosta was bribed pure and simple.
What a waste of space…
swamp monster
Wonder how much he got paid
A cabinet full of pedophiles protecting pedophiles to pedophile more another day. Sick fucks.
Obama would NEVER have nominated Acosta after a work record like this.
You,sir,need to resign….NOW!
I would love to see Acosta and the former prosecutor in Florida face to face. I want the other prosecutor to ask Acosta to tell the truth. I sincerely doubt that a 50 plus page indictment would have prompted the former prosecutor to "let Epstein walk." We aren't plankton on the food chain here. Blatant lie and it will catch up to him, just like lies caught up to the rest if Trump's disgraced former team.
Epstein: "I plea guilty to the solicitation of prostitution". What??? The idea that Acosta allowed these children to be called prostitutes who solicited Epstein is reprehensible. Please keep the pressure on Acosta because he also got a sweet deal.
The Orange Sphincter doesn’t like his asshole minions apologize
Wish victims can sue this disgusting jerk
how can the lady prove he raped her all these years later? I believe her but there has to be evidence. did she report it at the time?
today's world? his job is to see this doesn't happen.
well if they were then it needs investigating. Florida is a shit state anyway.
A Small Journslist opened up this case….
How do these 15 year olds end up in his Manhattan mansion? They tricked into going there … .. abducted there…walk in there knowing he is a rock spider but want the latest nikes? I dunno? But as lady below stated Children can’t consent to sex with adults, because they’re children. Children aren’t prostitutes. So …. if guilty… hang him high… just a little concerned of all these alleged rape victims coming out ( underage accepted ) given what happened to the Indian celebrity guy in Canada … how he beat them up etc… just lucky he kept his emails… or they would have put him in prison and sued him bankrupt.. on a plethora of lies and deceit
we all know about clinton being on orgy island….several interviews of lady's saying so…..we all know about bill being on flying lolitta….you opened the pandora's box that will include the lorde's of york…becareful democrats …that beast has been waiting to get out…
Acosta is a perfect trumpturd.

😁😁😁😁📱📹💾👮👮🇺🇸🇺🇸
Well Barr father hired Epstein to work at a school. Seems like these guys are all scratching each other's balls. Crazy
What a dirty dirty guy this is crazy he did this guy a favor for what? Humm payment of some sort. Dam you rich spoiled filty scammer pigs.
👎 with Acosta!
Dudes an idiot
Needs to be fired
Bullshit! What a Bullshit answer! This dude is Bullshit!
Now… "NOW" yes now "plans to sue"
cha-ching
Cash in!!! But only NOW
🚽
Dont work for your money sue for it…
Please go after the predetors who took Lolita Express and stayed on his Island. I know they won't….those elites live in a different law.
Republican Christians gave Rise to Trump . Dont ever forget that .😎👍🏽
English teachers…..is ‘very badly’ correct English language??
He didnt even apologize to the victims..WHAT A F'In COWARD
Proves how sick this administration truly is…..attempt to defend himself, when he should crawl under a rock in Death Valley 👿
What caught my attention was how he was saying today these cases are tried differently, what is differently in raping young children.This man needs to go.
It may be a different day but I think the rape and trafficking of children was just as outrageous 12 years ago as it is today. Initially 36 children, how many more were victimized by your plea bargain? Wondering how much money changed hands in this bargain. You are as deplorable as the President you serve.
Child Rape, and all Epstein gets is 13 months, with 16 hours a day out of his cell to 'work'..
How many underage girls did Acosta allow to be raped buy allowing Trump's friend to continue his child rape, and why did Trump appoint this POS to a Cabinet position in the Trump Administration?
Of course he won’t resign. That would require morals, ethics and a sense of honor.
Children can’t consent to sex with adults, because they’re children. Children aren’t prostitutes. They’re victims of child abuse. What an awful plea deal. It’s an embarrassment this guy is running a federal agency in the first place.
Yeah we all know labor secretary got some $$$ from Epstein for the plea deal….resignation is the best option for this corrupted dude.
