DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:

Anti-Semitism should have no home anywhere. It is antithetical to humanity’s call to be our brothers’ & sisters’ keepers & to do unto others as we would have them do to us.
I will hold the families & victims in my heart.
