The original prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein in Florida wasn’t just mishandled — it was corrupted from within. Three prosecutors from the same U.S. Attorney’s Office—Bruce Reinhardt, Lilly Sanchez, and Matt Menchel—quit during or immediately after the Epstein investigation and went to work for him or his associates. That isn’t coincidence; that’s the anatomy of a fix. Each of them had access to confidential case information and leveraged that insider knowledge to cash in, turning justice into a commodity. Then, when the Office of the Inspector General reviewed it, the watchdog that should have barked called it merely “bad judgment,” effectively normalizing what was blatant ethical rot. In any other case, this would have been criminal, but in Epstein’s world, betrayal was just another business decision—and the DOJ let it slide.

The result was a system that protected predators and punished truth. Epstein’s freedom wasn’t an accident; it was a purchase, bought through a revolving door of prosecutors-turned-defenders, cushioned by bureaucrats too cowardly to act. The OIG’s weak response proved that institutional loyalty outweighed moral duty, and that’s why none of these people have faced consequences. If three prosecutors can defect to a child trafficker’s payroll without consequence, then the justice system is broken by design. Congress should have dragged them in years ago, put them under oath, and made them answer for it. Until that happens, every promise of accountability is hollow, every “lesson learned” meaningless, and the fix remains exactly where Epstein left it — alive, protected, and thriving inside the walls of justice itself.
