For those interested, here are the facts about Acosta's prosection of Epstein via an editorial piece in the Wall Street Journal. I expect the closed minds of the shi, er, liberals won't bother to read it, because like always they have both fingers in their ears and are humming as loud as they can.

If you want to read what Acosta had to say about the case before he became Secretary of Labor, I suggest you read this Daily Beast article from 2017, in which Acosta details how Epstein would have avoided jail time and sex offender status if Acosta and the US Attorney's South Florida jurisdiction hadn't stepped in.
Again, those of you that wish to avoid facts so you can blame Trump for something that occurred before he became president, just ignore it. You aren't interested in the truth, your pathetic existence revolves around nonstop vilification of the president no matter what the facts are.
“Over the past weeks, I have read much regarding Mr. Jeffrey Epstein,” are words opening an extraordinary letter written by R. Alexander Acosta, who served as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida during Epstein’s criminal investigation. Mr. Acosta goes on to detail how, in 2005, a young girl first brought sex-crime allegations to the Palm Beach Police Department, which sought felony charges against Epstein.
Subsequently however, the State Attorney agreed to charge him “only with one count of aggravated assault with no intent to commit a felony,” Acosta writes. He notes that such a charge would have resulted in no jail time, no registration as a sexual offender, and no responsibility for restitution to Epstein’s underage victims.
Frustrated by the State Attorney’s decision, the police referred the case to the FBI, which handed it to the U.S. Attorney General’s office. After reviewing the charges, federal prosecutors “agreed that the state charge was insufficient,” Acosta writes. In a script that could have been lifted from Law and Order, his team gave Epstein two choices: “plead to more serious state felony charges…or else prepare for a federal felony trial.”
