Jeffrey Epstein arrested on sex trafficking charges

Following some of the "timelines" you see on the Epstein story, you'd think things went quiet about him after his 2008 conviction, and the Miami Herald digging it up again around 2016/2017.

Here's a BBC article from 2011 after Prince Andrew resigned as Trade Envoy - for a variety of controversies - including knowing Epstein, and the Virginia Robert (later Giuffre) allegations against him.

We obviously didn't have the Epstein files then, just whatever allegations were in the public realm.

Even without the Epstein stuff, he comes across as ignorant, arrogant, entitled, comfortable with corruption and bribery, a bit of a buffoon too - a real piece of work.

Could that torture have actually happened?

Les Wexner denies receiving massages from women or girls.

Wexner's lawyer caught on microphone saying 'I'll kill you if you answer another question with more than five word's okay' to Wexner.

Lawyers for imprisoned British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell are fighting the requested release of 90,000 pages related to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein and Maxwell, saying a law used to force the public release of millions of documents is unconstitutional.

The lawyers filed papers late Friday in Manhattan federal court to try to block the release of documents from a since-settled civil defamation lawsuit brought a decade ago by the late Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre against Maxwell. The Justice Department recently asked a judge to lift secrecy requirements on the files.

Maxwell's attorneys said the Justice Department obtained the documents — otherwise subject to secrecy orders — improperly during its criminal probe of Maxwell. They said the documents include transcripts of over 30 depositions and private information regarding financial and sexual matters related to Maxwell and others.

Some records from the year-long exchange of evidence in the lawsuit battle were already released publicly in response to a federal appeals court order.

Maxwell’s lawyers say a law Congress passed in December to force the release of millions of Epstein-related documents violates the Constitution’s separation of powers doctrine.

“Congress cannot, by statute, strip this Court of the power or relieve it of the responsibility to protect its files from misuse. To do so violates the separation of powers,” wrote the lawyers, Laura Menninger and Jeffrey Pagliuca about the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Wexner denying speculation about his relationship with Epstein.

Also, TYT is showing excerpts from the Epstein files including from diary of 16 year old who accused Jean Luc Brunel and Leon Black. Brunel was in the modeling industry. She also accused Maxwell of using rods that made her bleed. Evil.

This is getting insane. Somebody has allegedly filmed GM on the street in Quebec.

If it is not her then she has a doppleganger. Even more bizarre the woman is talking to a man who looks exactly like GMs brother!

New revelations about ex Prince Andrews former aide David Stern ties to Epstein, and a business deal with China.

Also that Epstein hired private detectives to hide evidence in storage units across the US.

It's possible as well as child and adult victims, there are also some adults that were consensual relationships in some of these photos. He reportedly had an adult Belarusian girlfriend whom he left money to.

In their case I agree. But there would probably also be some of his rich and famous adult friends in those images as well. There are emails showing Epstein discussed travel logistics with Goldman Sachs top lawyer (until she resigned over this) Kathy Ruemmler, including invitations and planning about going to his “private island.” These emails include talk of potential flights via private jet from St. Lucia and inquiries about taking a day trip to the island. However, these are invitations and plans in the correspondence, not proof she actually took the trip. She called him "Uncle Jeffrey".

Video below from the Wexner deposition. He's asked about Epstein paying money to someone for "biomedical research", and Trump.

“The wrongs are more venial in this category but should be a wake-up call for the rest of us.”

Whilst I’m not British, I imagine a lot of young Brits are disillusioned with the concept of the Royal Family and simply can’t relate to it - it’s an archaic concept and sets the stage for all the other elite titles and so called “honours”. But as we see in America now, another family, The Trumps, are doing similar- building up coalitions to line their own pockets- we criticise dictatorships whether some South American kip or Saudi Arabia - but really, so called democracies are full of these pigs too

Thats not how it works. The divine right of the king to rule comes directly from God. You can’t simply pick the best candidate.
Recently there was a case of an MP who could not take up the seat he was elected to until he swore allegiance to the monarch and all his future heirs and successors.
He swore allegiance to the king but argued he could not swear allegiance to people he did not know. He had to take the full oath to sit in the House of Commons.

"I [name] swear by Almighty God that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to His Majesty King Charles, his heirs and successors, according to law. So help me God".

"The leader is good, the leader is great. We surrender our will as of this date."

Seriously, what the #### is wrong with this world? The royal family and monarchy is a disgusting, antiquated, racist, privileged, elitist institution. They've got their hand and influence in so many facets of British life. From the national anthem(have you ever heard a more narcissistic, indoctrinating national anthem? It reminds me of that Simpsons clip above) to the monarch printed on their money.

There's several South Park episodes that poke ridicule at the monarchy and all the nonsense it entails. I didn't watch Charles becoming king, I wouldn't watch $h1t€ like that, but I seen glimpses on the news and the ceremony was preposterous. What century are we living in?

Anyway, I'll leave it at that, as my disgust for all things monarchy is better off in another thread.

Epstein files that mention accusations against Trump are still on the DOJ website.

Here is one.

Also below. Wexner is asked about sheriffs allegedly saying "We work for Wexner".

It is a joke. Ehud Barak was spending so much time in JEs New York townhouse that Israel took over the security there. They had agents actually living in the house, vetting visitors and setting up their own CCTV as well.

Wexner, Epstein, Robert and Ghislaine Maxwell are all tied to Mossad.

Well this is just nonsense.

Will people ask themselves a few questions before they make the call that this type of thing is to be believed.

The head of the World Economic Forum (WEF) stepping down over Epstein isn’t a conspiracy it happend today, the was also mentioning of pandemic planning in the Epstein files release.

Fair enough on some of what I said but take conspiracies out of the equation and well I don’t really know what to call it.
