Notes

International law firm where Jay Lefkowitz, Epstein's lead NPA negotiator, was a partner. Notably, Alexander Acosta had prior connections to Kirkland & Ellis, having worked there earlier in his career. This connection between the lead defense negotiator's firm and the U.S. Attorney warrants further investigation.
