NY - Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein arrested, sex trafficking, 6 July 2019 *FOUND DECEASED IN JAIL* #4

[sds71]

Maria Farmer, an Epstein survivor, lauded the release of her child pornography complaint to the FBI as part of the partial release of the Epstein files today.

“This is amazing. Thank you for believing me. I feel redeemed. This is one of the best days of my life. Of course, it’s mixed with the fact that I’m devastated about all the other little girls like Virginia who were harmed because the FBI didn’t do their job," Farmer said in astatement through her attorneys.

"I’m crying for two reasons. I want everyone to know that I am shedding tears of joy for myself, but also tears of sorrow for all the other victims that the FBI failed," she added.

Farmer's 1996 complaint form filed with the FBI Miami office alleged that Epstein stole photos she had taken of her 12 and 16-year-old sisters and sold them. She sued the federal government earlier this year in federal court over alleged failures to protect her and other Epstein victims.

Farmer’s legal team said in a news release that the document "proves that if the FBI had simply done its job in 1996, Epstein’s decades-long sex trafficking operation could have been stopped at the outset."

Several of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims said Friday that Justice Department failed them with its partial release of files related to the federal investigations into Epstein’s decades-long sexual abuse of teen girls and young women. They said the release of thousands of pages of photographs and heavily redacted documents did little to shed new light on the investigations and the scope of Epstein’s crimes or conspirators.

“If everything is redacted, where is the transparency?” said Marijke Chartouni, who has said she was sexually abused by Epstein when she was 20 years old.

“So many of the photos are irrelevant,” said Marina Larcerda, who has said Epstein sexually abused her when she was 14. She was an important witness in the 2019 federal investigation that led to the filing of sex trafficking charges against Epstein. But she only recently went public with her story.

“We have been let down,” Larcerda said. “We waited for this day to bring these other men who have been protected to justice.”
