Federal prosecutors hinted in a recent court filing that possible criminal charges in the late Jeffrey Epstein’s case may be coming as a grand jury investigation is still active.

“As the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York has stated publicly, the investigation into the conduct of the defendant in this case and other possible co-conspirators of Jeffrey Epstein remains active,” prosecutors wrote in a letter to a federal judge on Aug. 21 (pdf).
