In reply to the discussion: **BREAKING** Jeffrey Epstein Arrested For Sex Trafficking of Minors [View all]hlthe2b
(114,104 posts)95. I'd be surprised if NYS was not fully apprised, well along in their own investigation(s) or pouring
through those piles of documents released with the intent to do so. If SDNY has concerns over Barr's potential interference, Federal Prosecutors know they can share with NYS to help those potential cases proceed. Sometimes past "turf" issues can be swept to the wayside for a "greater good".
