It came to an end yesterday, but were excited to talk to her about all the records she broke. I got a hankering feeling this is just the beginning for coco. Well talk to her live just ahead. First our top story, the stunning new developments and disturbing details emerging in the case against billionaire Jeffrey Epstein. Well start with nbcs Stephanie Gosk. Jeffrey epstein is still in jail here in manhattan his bail hearing isnt until monday federal prosecutors are arguing that bail be denied altogether theyre saying epstein is an unreformed sexual offender and a flight risk. Reporter his morning prosecutors are labeling billionaire Jeffrey Epstein a danger to the community who poses an extreme flight risk telling the judge a convicted sex offender is not reformed, hes not chasteened, hes not repentant, in an effort to keep him behind bars until his trial. The alleged behavior shocks the conscience. The 66yearold pleading not guilty monday to charges of sex trafficking and conspiracy to traffic minors for the purpose of sex epstein is accused of paying girls as young as 14 for sex in his new york city and palm beach, florida, homes between 2002 and 2005. Epstein also paid certain victims to recruit additional girls to be similarly abused reporter photos show fbi agents breaking epsteins front door in new york shortly after his arrest saturday. Court documents revealing they found a vast trove of lewd photographs of young looking women or girls inside. Epstein a Hedge Fund Manager was known to mingle with power players in business and in politics, including President Trump and former president clinton whose team said overnight president clinton knows nothing about the terrible crimes Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to in florida some years ago or those with which he has been recently charged in new york President Trump saying this after epsteins arrest when asked for comment. No, i dont know anything about it reporter epsteins day in court is one his alleged victims have waited more than a decade for. They have been attacked their credibility has been maligned, and this is very, very welcome and gratifying vind cauti vindication for them. His accusers say they were never consulted in 2008 and epstein made a secret deal approved by then u. S. Attorney alexander acosta, the agreement thrust into the spotlight by a miami herald expose last year allowed epstein to plead guilty to state charges of soliciting and procuring a minor for prostitution, served 13 months behind bars, and register as a sex offender in order to avoid more serious federal charges if convicted epstein faces up to 45 years in prison prosecutors have also left the door open to other people being charged but told the judge yesterday that right now they dont expect any imminent superceding indictments. We turn now to ari medical burn years pass and now youve got the prosecutors here in new york, they bring charges why now . What changed we dont know exactly why now. What we know is that federal prosecutors in new york look at this as a serious case that they say they can prove and win, whereas florida prosecutors effectively were accused of backing down the first time. But they made this plea deal to craigs point that said we wont prosecute you, but that only covered the district in florida. Is that why new york prosecutors can now bring the case yeah. If youre looking at this saying whats their jurisdiction, they have separate new york jurisdiction this indictment mentions things that also occurred in florida. One of the most stunning revelations to come out yesterday, and stephanie you were there, is that there were new photographs, new images. What prosecutors called trove of images of young looking girls found at his Upper East Side mansion over the weekend could that in itself lead to new charges . Its entirely possible if those are underaged photographs that that could be a separate charge it would be technically a lesser charge than whats in the new indictment, but its the kind of thing prosecutors can later add as stephanie was mentioning. They also were very careful, ill add, to make sure that they characterize those photos in a specific way and that obviously means theyre still investigating them they said young looking they didnt assert these were underaged girls. What about this idea the charges are being brought by the public corruption unit and not the unit thats usually tasked with handling sex crimes what do we make of that . There are a few crimes that are so particular or serious that prosecutors are assigned to just those crimes, and as you mentioned, the prosecutors who normally deal with these kind of heinous accusations of things involving minors and sex trafficking are not on the case, so that raises a question we cant answer yet, which is there some other part of this inquiry that relates to potential government corruption. And very quickly, the prosecutors are arguing to keep him behind bars. They say hes a flight risk. Do they have a strong argument to keep him in jail . They have an argument because of the access to jets and other things, but his folks who have worked very hard in the past are making the argument that theyr prove legally that he wouldnt be a flight risk including waiving all kinds of rights. Thank you. Also this morning, theres new controversy over those leaked memos in which the British Ambassador to the u. S. Called the Trump Administration inept among other things. Overnight that ambassador was disinvited by the president to a high profile dinner at the treasury department, and eyebrows were also raised over a particular person in attendance.

Is it a hurricane, is it a Tropical Storm . Still too early to tell.
