Maybe some members of NYPD were “involved” with Epstein.One rule for the mega rich. Another for anyone else.

The theory itself is utter bullshit. But the sexual abuse of minors by powerful men throughout all branches of society is of course a very real thing. The existence of such schemes(?) was never really disputed. Marc Dutroux is an example for it.
I think that's not shocking to anyone either.I was specifically thinking about the organized network of abusers.
I'd forgotten about this one.
Enough irony in that to make your head explode.No wonder Simpsons declined so badly when this is reality now. 15 years ago this would be a Simpsons scene. Guy in the middle of a crowd holds up picture of a lying, cheating, women-molesting, racist, bigotted pseudo-politician alongside a child molester. Crowd (with "Make America Great Again" made in China hats) randomly chants "USA, USA". Pseudo-politician with a wig jokes about guy's haircut.
Icredible stuff. How do satirists make a living these days?

And that's the point of Pizzagate. It was just a bunch of somewhat logical assumptions, rumors, conspiracy theories and so on mixed together to create this super evil conspiracy. But that many aspects of it were mostly likely somewhat true and real, was never really doubted. But this specific thing was just bullshit.
Mr Acosta told reporters: "I do not think it is right and fair... to have Epstein as the focus rather than the incredible economy that we have today".
But he added: "It would be selfish for me to stay in this position and continue talking about a case that's 12 years old."
Acosta described a "year-long assault on the prosecution and prosecutors" in a 2011 letter that was cited in part in court filings and published in its entirety by the Daily Beast.
"I use the word assault intentionally, as the defense in this case was more aggressive than any which I, or the prosecutors in my office, had previously encountered," he wrote.
More:When Julie K Brown of the Miami Herald approached a former police chief of Palm Beach, Florida, in 2017, hoping to get him to open up about his investigation of the child sex crimes for which the wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein had been fleetingly jailed a decade earlier, she was surprised by how unresponsive he was.
Michael Reiter told Brown he had been down this road many times and was sick of it. As Brown recalled in a WNYC interview last month, Reiter said he had talked to many reporters and told them precisely where to find damning evidence against Epstein. But nothing ever came of it.
“He was convinced that a lot of media had squashed the story and he was fed up,” she said.
Reiter warned Brown what would happen were she to continue digging: “Somebody’s going to call your publisher and the next thing you know you are going to be assigned to the obituaries department.”
Jeffrey Epstein: how US media – with one star exception – whitewashed the story
The Miami Herald exposed a vast criminal network and a government cover-up – but why the silence elsewhere?

what do you think of the hypothesis that Epstein had orchestrated a pedo/hedgefund blackmail scam?My guess is all the billionaire media kingpins are in it as well.
Brazen impunity?
ELI5 plz?

Saudi? Another strange link to SA.Just this morning, the government became aware of a safe that contained a pile of cash, diamonds, a passport from a foreign country with a picture of the defendant under another name," Assistant U.S. Attorney Alex Rossmiller told U.S. District Judge Richard M. Berman.
"The passport was issued in the name of a foreign country, it was issued in the 1980s, it is expired, it shows a picture of Jeffrey Epstein, and another name," Rossmiller said, adding the passport showed Epstein's residence as Saudi Arabia.

Epstein’s bail hearing today. False passports, large amounts of money they know about, maybe large amounts they don’t know about, unlimited access to rich friends. Don’t know why judge Berman can’t make a decision until Thursday.....
Source?WTF is Chandler from Friends doing defending this guy
Hope this is a joke and even if it is it is a poor one for one in which allegations as serious as these are being discussed.feck off with that. We are happy celebrating the one time we win the world cup, just leave it out of this thread. Thanks.
Source?
Oh.It's a joke. Saw one of his legal team speaking to the press and he's a dead ringer for Chandler.
One rule for the mega rich. Another for anyone else.

Tommy Wiseaufecking hell! Do any of these people NOT know each other other?
Indeed but how can the Police overrule a judges orders?
Good piece on something that always irritates me when this sort of thing is discussed. Incorrect accusations of paedophilia.

The replies beneath the tweet are predictably full of mouth frothing indignation. People are the worst.
