Investigators had identified dozens of potential accusers from several states, many underage when they said Epstein abused them. But federal prosecutors agreed not to charge Epstein in exchange for his agreement to plead guilty to lesser state charges in Florida. Many survivors of Epstein&#8217;s crimes and other critics of the plea agreement have called it a &#8220;sweetheart deal.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Even after his 2008 conviction,   Epstein retained access to elite social circles and a broad network among billionaires, politicians, academics, celebrities and members of royalty.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In July 2019, Epstein, by then a registered sex offender, was arrested and charged by federal prosecutors with sex trafficking of minors and conspiracy. On Aug. 10, Epstein was found dead in his federal jail cell at Manhattan&#8217;s Metropolitan Correctional Center while awaiting trial. His death was ruled a suicide.\u00a0  \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Exhibit opens as RNC convention begins in Dallas<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Is it political? No. It&#8217;s about children being raped and abused. I don&#8217;t know how that is political. It&#8217;s a human issue,&#8221; Rochard said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is our lives. This is our children&#8217;s lives,&#8221; McGee said. &#8220;This is bigger than Epstein. This is for survivors everywhere.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I want to believe the perpetrators of these crimes, even if they are rich and powerful, go to prison,&#8221; Garrett said.<\/p>\n<p>The general public&#8217;s access to the exhibit, or the reading room, starts on Wednesday.
