The Justice Department is investigating federal prosecutors for their handling of a plea deal in which Jeffrey Epstein, a wealthy financier with political connections, avoided severe penalties for sexually abusing teenage girls in favor of a relatively light state conviction in Florida. The investigation was announced after US Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Nebraska, called for an examination of whether professional misconduct occurred in the highly publicized case. Epstein is now 66 and lives on Little St. James Island off St. Thomas. He reached a non-prosecution deal with then-Miami US Attorney Alexander Acosta's office in 2008 to secretly end a federal sex abuse investigation that could have landed him behind bars for life.

The Miami U.S. attorney's office has recused itself from the Jeffrey Epstein case due to its involvement in prior decisions related to Epstein. This means that the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Georgia will oversee the case, which involves Epstein's victims and their attempts to seek justice for alleged crimes committed by Epstein, including abuse of underage girls. The reassignment has been criticized by some as a move to protect Epstein from facing consequences for his actions.
