Epstein’s Emails Show Dinners With Florida Prosecutor in Sweetheart Deal Case
Newly released documents from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate reveal that Matthew Menchel, a former Miami U.S. Attorney’s office chief criminal prosecutor, had multiple meetings and dinners with Epstein years after he left the DOJ. Menchel, who spearheaded Epstein’s controversial 2007 plea deal, was also photographed on a ski trip with Epstein, though the photograph was not produced by lawmakers. Menchel has stated that he had no business relationship with Epstein, but did not deny the meetings. The House Oversight Committee is currently investigating the case, examining potential cover-ups and the involvement of other individuals in Epstein’s crimes.
