This brief press statement by Acosta is self-explanatory.

The Goal -- put Epstein behind bars, insure that he registers as a sɛҳuąƖ predator, and provide restitution to the victims.
The Federal Government and Acosta intervened when the State of Florida was going to let Epstein be freed without serving any time, nor registering as a sɛҳuąƖ predator. In addition, he would not have had to pay any restitution because the victims were too scared to testify against Epstein and in some cases were so psychologically traumatized that they supported Epstein.
Acosta recommends the NY Federal prosecution.
Regarding the Florida case, Acosta stated that letting Epstein walk without registering as a sɛҳuąƖ predator and without paying any restitution would have been a serious travesty of justice. Yet, this was what the D.A. of the State of Florida was advocating. This is why the Federal Government including Acosta intervened and forced the State of Florida to make a plea deal that required Epstein to serve time, to register as a sɛҳuąƖ predator, and to pay restitution.
Now that Epstein is a confirmed sɛҳuąƖ predator and has served time in prison, it will be much easier to convict him of these current charges.
