The absence of the phrase \"in this District\" from the co-conspirator immunity provision therefore compels the inference that the parties did not intend to so limit its reach.\nAs the NPA reflects, Epstein's objective in negotiating the NPA was to obtain a global resolution that would, among other things, provide maximum protection for any alleged co-conspirators.
