'D's' will probably get the kid glove treatment from the media). It doesn’t necessarily mean any of them participated in Epstein’s illegal acts. But they will need to explain what they knew about what was going on. My prediction is high-priced lawyers and reputation management specialists are going to be in high demand in the coming months.

Did you believe Christine Ford? She should have been locked up. It's too easy make a false claim about anyone and there's little fear of reprecussion.

Harvey Weinstein wrote: » Now in fairness Bill Clinton (with his record) gets the benefit of the doubt too no? How many Women have accused him of rape? Quite a few as it happens. He visited Epsteins Island multiple times yet theres very little questioning of this is there? He also flew on the 'Lolita Express' at least 26 times and yet he gets the benefit of the doubt 'with his record'

Harvey Weinstein wrote: » Fair enough but much of the conversation here seems to focus on Trump whereas this case involves many many people including the leaders of other nations. Clinton of course was always the one with the deepest ties to Epstein, with him being a large donator to multiple Clinton charities and concerns.

If he gets another sweetheart deal this time, given the publicity surrounding it now, there would be protests. But there's no reason to protest at this stage. Let the investigation take its course.

Cause it's not uncommon for that to occur as was the case with everyone to Saville to church abuse. You've concluded she's lying but you don't have proof. She had no reason to lie and it's effectively wrecked her life by coming out.
