said. Jeffrey Epstein's victims "want to tell their story and they want justice."

So evidently Epstein had tapes and photos of the victims with other suspects, that's what I'm reading, all discovered during the search. Whoa! I imagine there is a lot of lawyering up going on

Whoa lol! I need to go read up. I bet many “cronies” are sweating blood lately!

I don’t understand how anyone with a daughter could do this.

Will Ghislaine Maxwell be arrested as well?

A woman of means procuring young girls. Disgusting

Do you think she's a witness? Someone knew where to find the "goods" he has.

Like rats leaving a sinking ship. It is interesting reading, who is distancing themselves from their "pal" Epstein.

Nothing illegal about being rich or a single person owning many homes, but I do wonder why a man who is not married and doesn't have kids needs the biggest residence in Manhattan. What's all the space used for? I hope LE is figuring that out.

We know he kept his massage room the same. The guy wants opulence to show his power. To invite friends on the Lolita Express, to invite them to his homes across the Caribbean, etc is a power play---see how much I have, you want to be like me, I am powerful. He played the same game with the girls he abused/raped/assaulted.

Can you point me in the right direction to read this in MSM?

Epstein's safe contains CDs labeled with names of the girl, her "partner" and the dates. I have no idea how this world works, but it seems that Epstein provided children to the super-wealthy and then kept evidence of the encounters for blackmail. How can that even happen? After the first person is blackmail, everyone else keeps their distance.

And then the mysterious money.

I don't know how this world works.

The stuff he is being charged with is the same things he was originally charged with though. It happened 15 years ago. There does not appear to be anything to suggest that he is still doing it.

The only reference in the CNN to what was in his safe that I could see described pictures of "young looking" women. That does not mean they were minors.

Thank you for the quote. It's in the court documents from yesterday.

I think it's the bit in bold here (maybe open to interpretation):

Additionally, some of the photographs referenced herein were discovered in a locked safe, in which law enforcement officers also found compact discs with hand-written labels including the following: “Young [Name] + [Name],” “Misc nudes 1,” and “Girl pics nude.”

Yes, we cringed here, too, as it happened.

Edited to add: His "correction" of saying there was no penetration was also cringeworthy, as well as hurtful and arrogant, imo.

and not true.

The Atlantic
Jeffrey Epstein Is Out of Luck

The feds, as is their habit, raided Epstein’s New York home while he was being arrested. In their motion asking the court to detain Epstein without bail, the government claimed that it had seized hundreds of photos of nude women or girls, some of whom appeared underage, kept on CDs thoughtfully labeled with things like “Girl pics nude.” The clonking sound you heard was 10,000 criminal-defense attorneys banging their heads on their desks. Such materials are not just potentially devastating evidence in Epstein’s prosecution. If Epstein had pornographic images of minors, he can expect the feds to add child- charges to the indictment—and those charges are much easier to prove, without the challenges of a 15-year-old case.​

The crimes committed by Epstein are horrific, and I am pleased that NY prosecutors are moving forward with a case based on new evidence.

Now that new evidence and additional testimony is available, the NY prosecution offers an important opportunity to more fully bring him to justice.
