    Yeah but you see, I like this celebrity and people come out of the woodwork to attack a powerful man so we need a lot more evidence before we can decide one way or another.

    The issue isn't that people don't believe victims. The issue is they don't care.

    For a good many Brits (and wannabe Brits around the world), just being inbred in the right ways means they are worthy of worship and can do no wrong.

    Also, the royals people DO actually like (like Lizzie) went above and beyond to protect the pedophile so it would reflect poorly on them if he actually DID rape all them kids. So obviously it is fake news,

    Epstein asked me questions. Do you have siblings? Where do you go to high school? Do you take birth control?’

    sounds like he had his questions routine figured out

    From his emails / texts you can tell Epstein is not very bright, at all. Maxwell was the brains.

    If Maxwell gets a pardon it will cause her more harm than being in prison. Someone who read that will fill with rage and make and end of her.

  • Oh the grand old Duke of York

    He had 10,000 men

    He also had much younger girls but he can't remember them.

    And when they were young they were young

    So they gave out quid after quid

    They paid 12 mil to a girl for a thing they say he never did.

    Power must be checked. Too many people slip into this abuser mindset when they have it. We only see a glimpse of what they do behind closed doors.

    Heartbreaking to read about a 16/17 year old girl, who's already been traumatized, now trapped in this slimy world.

    This is not really news. The rich and powerful have always believed screwing commoners is their birthright and see absolutely nothing wrong with it.

    I somehow missed that she died this year. It makes me so angry that her abusers live on, waltzing around freely.

    I couldn't finish reading that, it's so awful

    Well, I ain't getting laid, but I'll at least be nowhere near pathetic enough to believe I can rape who I want when I want because of who my parents are.
