Summary
This document contains pages 174 and 175 from James Patterson's book (likely 'Filthy Rich') included in House Oversight files. The text details the initial enthusiasm of State Attorney Krischer to prosecute Epstein, which drastically changed to leniency (suggesting a misdemeanor notice) after Epstein's lawyers, including Alan Dershowitz, intervened and Epstein's wealth became known. It also mentions Detective Recarey receiving advice from Daliah Weiss and the involvement of attorney Goldberger.

JAMES PATTERSON
originally, he said, "Let's go for it; this is an adult male in his fifties who's had sexual contact with children of the ages of the victims." He said this is somebody who we have to stop. And whatever we need, he said, in the state attorney's office, we have a unit that's equipped to investigate and prosecute these kinds of cases. And I didn't have too many facts early on when I talked with him, but I knew that there were multiple victims and to our detectives they were believable. So when time went on and Mr. Epstein became aware of the investigation and his lawyers contacted the state attorney's office, they told me that.
And from that point on, and I believe it was Mr. Dershowitz initially, the tone and tenor of the discussions of this case with Mr. Krischer changed completely. [At] one point he suggested that we write [Epstein] a notice to appear, which would be for a misdemeanor. He just completely changed from not only our first conversation about this[—when] he didn't know the name Jeffrey Epstein—till when he had been informed on Mr. Epstein's reputation and his wealth, and I just thought that very unusual.
I feel like I know him or knew him very well, the state attorney, and I just felt like he could not objectively make decisions about this case: that is why I wrote it.
