Acosta negotiated a plea deal for Epstein that allowed him to serve just 13 months in prison while shielding his co-conspirators from prosecution. Epstein's associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, has filed an appeal to the Supreme Court to contest her conviction, linking her case to the agreement made by the Justice Department. Meanwhile, House Oversight Chair James Comer has issued subpoenas for depositions to several prominent figures, but notably excluded Acosta, who played a central role in Epstein's controversial deal. The sweetheart deal mandated Epstein's victim compensation and sex offender registration while allowing him continued freedom.
