Summary

This document, part of House Oversight records, details the friction between investigators (Recarey and Reiter) and the Palm Beach County State Attorney's office (Krischer and Belohlavek) during the Epstein investigation. It highlights defense attorney Alan Dershowitz's attempts to discredit a victim using her MySpace page and marijuana use, and Investigator Recarey's strong rebuttal against such victim-blaming.

10/27/99 - OPINION - Barry Krischer; P.B.Co. State Attorney. (AM)
“Our investigation had discovered at least one of her websites and I am enclosing some examples ... the site goes on to detail, including photos, her apparent fascination with marijuana, ” Dershowitz wrote in an undated letter to Recarey. He also disputed the claim that one of the defense team’s private investigators had misrepresented himself as a police officer.
Recarey stood his ground.
“His attorneys showed us a MySpace page where one of the girls was holding a beer in her hand, and they said, ‘oh look, she is underage drinking,’ ” Recarey recalled. “Well, tell me what teenager doesn’t? Does that mean she isn’t a victim because she drank a beer? Basically, what you’re telling me is the only victim of a sexual battery could be a nun.”
Krischer and the lead state prosecutor on the case, Assistant State Attorney Lanna Belohlavek, began to dodge Recarey and Reiter’s phone calls and emails, and they dragged their feet on approving subpoenas, Reiter and Recarey said.
