Federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York on Friday evening blasted a proposed bail package from Jeffrey Epstein’s lawyers, which would have him wait out a trial on sex trafficking and conspiracy charges from his $77 million Manhattan townhouse, saying it would do nothing to ensure his appearance in court or protect the community.

In a memo filed Friday evening, prosecutors argued that Epstein instead should remain in a federal detention facility, where he’s been held since his arrest last Saturday at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey.
