Report: Labor secretary accused of giving wealthy alleged pedophile 'deal of a lifetime'

Washington (CNN) — When he was a US attorney in Florida, Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta gave accused pedophile Jeffrey Epstein the "deal of a lifetime," the Miami Herald reported Wednesday.

In a sweeping review of the politically connected multimillionaire's case, the Herald explained how Acosta made an agreement with Epstein to avoid major repercussions for the hedge fund manager, even though a federal investigation identified 36 underage victims.

The report said Acosta forged a deal with one of Epstein's attorneys where he pleaded to two state prostitution charges, ultimately serving only 13 months and avoiding a federal trial. The agreement, the Herald said, "essentially shut down an ongoing FBI probe" and further granted immunity to "any potential co-conspirators" in the case.

Epstein also registered as a sex offender and paid restitution to the victims identified by the FBI.

3. The series done by the Miami Herald is very good

If you really want to see how disgusting our political slime can be, read how they gave a pass to the world's greatest pervert. Epstein, not DFT.

4. Wasn't one of his potential co-conspirators the orange pustule?

Can't believe how lucky you know who is—ironically not in the casino business though.
