The main article text extracted and formatted into three relevant paragraphs is as follows:

Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty in 2008 to state charges in Florida and served fewer than four months in jail before being granted a work release arrangement allowing him to leave custody up to 16 hours a day, six days a week. During this period, he was transported by his bodyguard and driver, Igor Zinoviev, to an office in downtown West Palm Beach, where his personal attorney, Darren Indyke, was listed as his official supervisor. Epstein hired off-duty deputies to monitor his movements and provide security at his office and home.

Documents released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act revealed that Epstein’s SUV used for these trips was outfitted with a bed. One woman, a former model from Slovakia who said she was recruited by Epstein’s associate Jean-Luc Brunel, told the FBI she engaged in sexual activity with Epstein in the vehicle while it was parked in the jail lot. She had been involved with Epstein for years and was one of four assistants granted immunity in his non-prosecution agreement, which was approved by then U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta.
