The feds insist there’s nothing to prevent their prosecution of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — even though he cut a sweetheart deal over similar allegations in Florida in 2008.

In court papers, Manhattan federal prosecutors said a 2003 amendment to the federal law covering offenses against children expanded the statute of limitations “to any time during the lifetime of the minor victim.”

Prosecutors also cited two reasons why the nonprosecution agreement, or NPA, that Epstein struck with then-Miami US Attorney Alex Acosta — who is now President Trump’s secretary of labor — isn’t binding on them.

According to court papers, it is “well-settled” law in the federal 2nd Circuit, which covers New York state, that “a plea agreement in one US attorney’s office does not, unless otherwise stated, bind another.”

In addition, Epstein’s indictment deals with “conduct not covered by the NPA, namely conduct that occurred in New York.”

“The prior NPA included a list of several dozen victims identified in the prior investigation, all of whom were abused in the state of Florida, and none of whom are a part of the conduct charged in Count Two of the instant indictment,” the Manhattan federal court filing says.

During a court conference Monday afternoon, Epstein’s defense lawyer, Reid Weingarten, downplayed the allegations against his millionaire client as “ancient history.”

“It is our belief that this is basically a redo. This is basically the feds, today, not happy with what happened in the decision that led to the NPA, redoing the same conduct that was investigated 10 years ago and calling it, instead of prostitution, calling it sex trafficking,” Weingarten said.

“We think that is the heart of everything, and that will be the centerpiece of our defense, at least legally.”
