I've been watching the Netflix series, and it's just amazing how many people have been bought, blackmailed, or fearing implication in the files. Originally it was law enforcement, up to the highest levels of the FBI, protecting Epstein. Now it's politicians protecting themselves.
It's amazing to think that trafficked girls who were threatened to recruit more victims have been treated like criminals, while the actual perpetrators continue to walk free.
The Washington elite and their oligarch cronies will do ANYTHING now to keep their sins in the dark.
How so? In fact, I think wide latitude has been given the accusers who have provided scant little out of some supposed fear they will be sued into oblivion for speaking.
Before Epstein was ever arrested, there were mountains of evidence, including corroborating stories from victims about the layout of the house, the actions of Mr. Epstein, the recruitment process, crimes against the underaged, threats against them for telling anybody, being loaned out to associates, etc. Despite all of this evidence, officials at the local, state, and federal level repeatedly put the lid on things, and to this day they will not explain why they dragged their feet, declined to indict on the more serious crimes, etc.
Based on this, do you think those victims are justified in their unwillingness to speak? Even those who tell the truth end up worse off, after they've been further abused by defense attorneys and the media. See Prince Andrew's accuser, for example.
94chem,
That, sir, was the greatest post in the history of TexAgs. I salute you. -- Dough
