It has been revealed that the federal judge who issued the search warrant that was utilized by the FBI to raid Mar-a-Lago on Monday defended clients of notorious child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
As per reports from the Miami Herald, Judge Bruce Reinhart, who gave his approval for the FBI to raid Trump's property by signing a sealed search warrant, left his job as a U.S. attorney in 2008 to begin working for Epstein. The warrant in question gave the FBI permission to search Trump's property. According to his official government biography, Reinhart worked in private practice for 10 years after quitting his government job until being appointed to his current position as a federal magistrate in 2018.
Reinhart was mentioned in a lawsuit filed under the Crime Victims' Rights Act in the year 2011 during the decade that he spent serving clients. According to the allegations made by the Miami Herald, he was suspected of breaking a directive of the Justice Department that prohibits switching sides and maybe using insider information about Epstein's case in order to gain favor with the court. According to another item published by the news organization, he allegedly started preparations to launch his own private practice while he was still working as a federal prosecutor in South Florida.
According to a report in the Miami Herald, Reinhart's superiors filed a court document contradicting the claim that he had nothing to do with Epstein's investigation and had zero information on his case in 2011, but he swore under penalty of perjury that he was not involved in Epstein's investigation and had zero information on his case.
According to the New York Post, Reinhart began work for Epstein on January 2, 2008, after he purportedly resigned from his position as an employee of the United States Attorney's Office on New Year's Day of 2008. According to the publication, some of Epstein's pilots, his scheduler, and a lady named Nadia Marcinkova were among his customers. Epstein reportedly referred to Marcinkova as his "Yugoslavian sex slave."
