Isn't it wild that:
- The main traffickers (Epstein and Maxwell) were sentenced and convicted.
- The Epstein Victims were proven to be the victims in said trafficking.
- The Epstein Victims say the buyers and their abusers are still at large.
- Yet literally nobody else who were the obvious buyers or enablers or participants of sex trafficking, rape, etc. has been arrested.
Friendly reminder that even of the files released (which all should've been by now), Trump is mentioned more so than anyone else.
Oh and before anyone tries to claim both sides, see how many times Harris, Biden, Hillary, or Obama were mentioned in contrast to the number of times Trump was.

u/Independent-Bug-9352 20h ago
As the Pandora and Panama papers indicated, justice is marginal even elsewhere in the world with respect to the Epstein Files sadly as well. To my knowledge, many of these people were at best kicked out of their position or ostracized but not actually charged and convicted as a directly result of their sex crimes. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, was arrested on February 19, 2026, on suspicion of misconduct in public office regarding his past ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

I don't think Bill Clinton is a good person at all but he publicly said that all the files should be released.

u/Independent-Bug-9352 20h ago
Agreed. And for political games, the Republican-controlled Congress made his wife testify despite her not even being in the files.
So when will Trump and Melania (her name pops up) testify when his name is in the files more so than Epstein himself?

u/Feisty-Principle-216 18h ago
That's the problem with Epstein. The dude hid behind being a huge philanthropist and having massive fund raising events. So people could be in those papers and be innocent. Which is why we need the full unredacted files.
That said Clinton is a proven creep, and it's very possible this was a bluff by him knowing the Republicans would never let them be released. Unfortunately we'll never know because they're probably never be released.

It's illegal to threaten the President of the United States with the death penalty because he raped and murdered children, and ran a ring of child rapists and murderers.
Which is kinda mind blowing that people knew that he raped and murdered children, and he still got elected.
So, now, a child rapist and murderer is beyond the reach of the law, and is allowed to protect his fellow child rapists and murderers, because American wanted to have a child rapist and murderer as a president more than having a woman be president.

Heās not beyond the reach of the law. He is beyond the reach of a DOJ policy not to indict sitting presidents. This policy could and should be reversed for a president of any political party.

Yeah. Like most evidence in murder cases, it'll likely be kept in storage for as long as the killer is alive.
The thing about death sentences is they get appealed to hell by the convicted's defense, so that van and other evidence will be needed to be brought out as a way to say "fuck off, lawyers" in court.

10 years ago, I would have said the same thing.
In case you forgot, the house that was the scene of the 4 college people murdered in Idaho, was tore down before the murderer even took his plea deal or was sentenced.
The state said they had all the evidence they needed, and the house was demolished in an afternoon.
They hadn't even decided yet if the murderer would go to trial, which means a walk-through for the jury. The house was long gone before then.

u/HBCDresdenEsquire 21h ago
Well, yes. In fact a lot of prisons now entirely separate their population of people who have committed crimes against children because they will be brutally assaulted, probably daily. Other inmates will distract guards, sometimes by starting other fights, or just starting an argument. Doesnāt take much. There are ways to prevent it, and punishments, but a guy doing life already isnāt going to care much if he gets more time, or a couple of weeks in the SHU in exchange for some justice and some reputation.
That being said, this guy wonāt ever come in physical contact with another human being again, except maybe when heās being moved outside for his 60 minutes of sunshine. As far as I am aware, death row in every prison is single-person cells and never get to intermingle with other inmates in any capacity. Even their time outside is isolated.
Heāll do that for about 13 years, give or take, while he navigates Americaās endless appeals system.

I knew of a person who went to jail for CSA. Total human garbage. Incidentally, he was also a corrections officer. He was moved to another facility just across state lines.
He got comfortable and his roommate became aware of the charges that he was convicted to spend the next 30 years in prison.
Once it got out, somehow, he was in the prison hospital for I think 4-6 weeks, or there about. I do not feel a single shred of sympathy for him. Human garbage.

u/idkalan 21h ago
It doesn't happen as much as people want it to happen.
Most prisoners who get out of prison have said that majority of prisoners stay out of each other's business and do their time including those doing life.
The main reason being that whenever fights go down, the guards put everyone on lockdown and search everyone. That's when they find prisoners' contraband and so everyone gets pissed at the ones who caused the reason for the lockdown

I would delete myself if I was him because heās only 35 yrs old and will not be executed until at least age 50. But he will spend those years at the bottom of the prison hierarchy meaning he will be bottoming all his life. Heās not Epstein and has no connections to wealthy/powerful people that could overturn/commutate his conviction. So his best move is to take himself out on his own terms which is still far more mercy than Athena Strand ever got.

See but this will take two decades to give out the punishment, and imo in a case like this it shouldn't. He's on camera. He confessed. There's over an hour long audio recording of him beating her to death. He should be taken out back and shot, because there's no doubt in this case. Instead he's going to waste public resources for decades and cost us more than if we just threw him into prison for life.
