And there was me thinking they were taking an interest.

This is brilliant...Epstein finally speaks.

Apparently he (and no doubt others) don't want publication of...

thousands of pages of correspondence between his lawyers and US prosecutors

and he is citing...

the 1978 US supreme court ruling in favour of former president Richard Nixon’s and his efforts to prevent television networks access to his secret White House recordings.

[SpookyFrank]

The lawyers said Mr Epstein could be “irreparably harmed” if such letters and emails were made public.

Well then perhaps he should've thought of that before he abused underage girls then hired an army of lawyers to help him avoid prosecution. It's not the documents that are the problem, it's the crimes they relate to, crimes for which Esptein probably deserves to be 'irreparably damaged' insofar as he hasn't been already.

 

[Citizen66]

The smear campaign begins:

It has now been revealed that just months before she was introduced to convicted-pedophile Epstein, then 14-year-old Roberts accused two acquaintances of rape.

The Daily News uncovered court records which show prosecutors decided not to press formal charges due to Roberts' 'lack of credibility' as a victim.

[SpookyFrank]

So because her original attackers weren't prosecuted, that means her allegations against Epstein and pals can't be trusted?

I can't quite get my head around how wrong that is. Presumably the argument is that drinking and smoking pot makes you more likely to manufacture accusations of rape, and if you were drunk or high at the time you were attacked then nobody should be expected to believe you. From which rapists might well conclude that they need only get their victims drunk to ensure immunity from prosecution.

 

[Citizen66]

Epstein got convicted which sort of flies against her being some kind of liar. Epstein the Paedo. Prince Andrew's close mate.

 

[dessiato]

Apropos of nothing in particular, I've visited Andrew's house a few times. He always seemed to be odd. I wouldn't be surprised if he is guilty. I imagine his defence to be something along the lines of "But I'm royalty and can do what I like" I don't like him much, as you might be able to tell.

I know whose word I give more credence too, and it isn't the convicted nonce or the man of such privilege he probably has very different take on age of consent laws and consent in general.

 

[butchersapron]

I'd be very surprised if his defence (if it ever comes to that - he's charged with nothing, he's just been named) will consist I'm royalty and can do what I like!

it will until his lawyers point out how holey that is in a land without royalty

its not likely to ever come to that is it, even were he charged with anything the US demanding a royal answer to their jurisdiction is just never going to happen

I doubt it, but who knows.

 

[Citizen66]

Would be very embarrassing for the Royals and crossing the US off places to jet to might be a tad inconvenient.

it wouldn't happen. Conversations would be had. Assurances given. Law doesn't apply to these people, thats not how it works

 

[Citizen66]

I quite liked that the Royals' response to all this was to promote Prince Andrew. My eyes were just drawn to the word Vice.

True. Although it didn't save Mark Thatcher.

 

[DotCommunist]

the scions of the petite bourgeoisie aren't royalty.

anyway, everyone knows attempting a coup is way worse than coercive sex with an underage person. Right....

Whereas this is 100% how the law should work...

I've visited Andrew's house a few times. He always seemed to be odd. I wouldn't be surprised if he is guilty.

 

[brogdale]

Bit of a crowd pleaser, this one; Lady Ghislaine, Captain Bob, Windsor jnr, Epstein, Trump, Clinton & Dershowitz all in one hit.

No more massages for Randy Andy just one big final debilitating or fatal stroke. Face must be saved.

Epstein kills himself or so it seems

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/aug/10/jeffrey-epstein-dead-prison-report-latest

No wonder we've heard so little of Prince Philip recently. He's been undercover in a US jail

 

[Proper Tidy]

He dead

Paedophile billionaire Jeffrey Epstein 'found dead' in US prison ahead of trial

 

[mwgdrwg]

How many would've gone down with him, we can now only wonder.

Hope he's left a few notes

 

[mystic pyjamas]

How Convenient.
Read somewhere that he tried to top himself earlier in the week. Surely he must’ve been on suicide watch.
