Accused child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein set to return to court after injury in jail
that his "alleged excessive attraction to sexual conduct with or in the presence of minor girls — which is said to include his soliciting and receiving massages from young girls and young women perhaps as many as four times a day — appears likely to be uncontrollable."
Epstein has been jailed in lower Manhattan's Metropolitan Correctional Center since his July 6 arrest, when he was confronted by federal agents at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey as he stepped his private plane after a flight from Paris, France. He is charged one count of sex trafficking of minors and one count of conspiracy to commit sex trafficking of minors. The indictment alleges Epstein sexually abused dozens of girls, some as young as 14 years old, in his Manhattan mansion and in Palm Beach, Florida, between 2002 and 2005.
Epstein was already registered as a sex offender as a result of pleading guilty in 2008 to state charges filed in Florida related to prostitution involving an underage girl. The non-prosecution agreement Epstein signed in that case in exchange for pleading guilty to a single Florida state charge of procuring an underage girl for prostitution. He ended up serving 13 months in a Florida jail, and was allowed out on work release for much of his stay.
