There it is right there. The agreement was made by the FBI. Acosta was the messenger.

The FBI doesn't make prosecutorial deals or run the DoJ, though. They investigate, they don't prosecute.


So........

The state called the shots just like NYS is calling the shots now. Which is why his buddy Trump will not be allowed to pardon the scum.

Is your position that Mueller should be fired? Prosecuted? or what?
Of course that's what he's saying.

He needs Mueller to be complicit in child rape so his whole report can be discarded.

The DOJ has opened an investigation into it. But you are wrong. The agreement was not made with the FBI directly. It was made with the Miami US attorney's office.

You people can't read. It says right in the Wiki link that the deal was part of the NON federal prosecution agreement made with the FBI for being an informant. The Feds couldn't prosecute due to the agreement with the FBI. The deal was to have the state pursue the plea deal charges. The STATE thought that's all they'd be able to get. So the STATE agreed to the deal. Acosta was FEDERAL and recommended they take that plea deal. They didn't have to if they thought they had it in the bag but they did.

It was an illegal agreement. Who do you suppose made that decision?

The. FBI. Doesn't. Decide. Who. Gets. Charged. With. Federal. Crimes.


My post stands. If you want to be mad at a Fed, the Attorney General is the one you should be mad at. Mueller had jack-all to do with this.

You are the one that can't read and you still have it backwards.

AGAIN, the FBI does NOT make prosecution or declination decisions in federal cases. Either main justice or US attorney's office make that decision.

The plea deal was made with the US attorney's office in Miami. A part of the deal involved Epstein becoming a cooperating witness with FBI in their INVESTIGATIVE role in the case.
