A group of Orthodox Jewish organizations filed an emergency request Monday asking the United States Supreme Court to block Democratic New York Gov .

The Daily Caller News Foundation filed a Freedom of Information Act request for the full report last week after the DOJ said in a press release that “the Privacy Act prohibits the Department from releasing the full report publicly.”
The other top Miami federal prosecutor who blocked Jeffrey Epstein’s arrest in 2007 was Matthew Menchel, then chief of the Miami criminal division. https://t.co/kQ4vYcBtKM — julie k. brown (@jkbjournalist) November 14, 2020
Epstein hired Sanchez around 2007 after she left the Southern District of Florida’s U.S. Attorney’s Office (USAO) for private practice, the Daily News reported.
When the USAO began investigating Epstein and negotiated the sweetheart deal that closed an investigation into Epstein’s crimes, Menchel was chief of the criminal division, according to the Daily News, though Menchel left the USAO before the case had been fully resolved.
“That stinks to high heaven,” the source familiar with the report told the Daily News.
The DOJ report found that Menchel should have disclosed his relationship to both Acosta and ethics officials at the USAO, a disclosure which would have likely prompted officials to ask him to step back from the Epstein case, according to the Daily News.
Menchel, who declined to comment for this story, reportedly told DOJ investigators that his relationship with Sanchez did not affect how he handled the Epstein case. Sanchez did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the DCNF.
