He could have done that, or use that info to try to get as much as possible in a plea deal.
With the amount of stuff they had on him I doubt there was much room for a plea deal. Typically the way you would get someone like him to divulge more info is to feed his evil side by destroying everyone else. Seeing powerful people suffer at your hand is far better than being offered ketchup for your shit sandwich.
Who knows. He knew a lot of people who he could have thrown under the bus, plus he was wealthy so he could have used a combination of both to get as much as possible. Like what Ted Bundy tried to do when he got in jail: exchange information on crimes (cold cases) he had not been charged yet in exchange of <whatever he could get>. Epstein had information, money and connections, he would have tried to use that for something.
