MIAMI Alex Acosta, the former U.S. attorney in Florida who in 2008 granted accused pedophile and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein a plea deal that sent him to county jail for 13 months, said hes happy to see New York prosecutors go after Epstein again now that they have new evidence.
The crimes committed by Epstein are horrific, and I am pleased that NY prosecutors are moving forward with a case based on new evidence, Acosta, currently U.S. secretary of labor for President Donald Trump, tweeted Tuesday. With the evidence available more than a decade ago, federal prosecutors insisted that Epstein go to jail, register as a sex offender and put the world on notice that he was a sexual predator.
Epstein, 66, was arrested at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey over the weekend. The arrest came about a decade after he was released from a Palm Beach County jail following a 13-month stint that he served after pleading guilty to charges of prostitution involving a girl under the age of 18.
Epstein pleaded guilty back then as part of a non-prosecution agreement one of his lawyers negotiated with Acosta, who agreed to forego a prepared 53-count indictment over accusations that hed been involved in the sex trafficking of minors.

The only people buying his bullshit excuse are not paying any attention- which will mean quite a few people.
That's why they throw pots of spaghetti at walls, they know SOME of it will stick!
