Epstein, who served 13 months after his 2008 Florida plea deal, is now looking at 45 years behind bars if convicted in New York. Epstein pleaded not guilty Monday to the new charges and is being held until a bail hearing next week. But at a Monday court hearing, Epstein attorney Reid Weingarten dismissed the idea that the new indictment would reveal anything new: “This is ancient stuff. ” The non-prosecution agreement notes that Epstein “seeks to resolve globally” the entire case against him. He also said the agreement signed by South Florida prosecutors and Epstein does not apply in New York.
