The Miami Herald's excellent journalistic takedown of Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta with regard to Jeffrey Epstein (Update 8/10/19:Good Riddance)

Read this thread and check the articles. No lie, it's going to take a while. 

A good illustration of how we have two different modalities when it comes to justice. One for those with money and power, and another for poor schlubs like the rest of us.

We shouldn't be surprised that Trump appointed a cabinent member that protected a pedophile.

In fact, Trump probably considered that as a positive.

He was a candidate for the AG job. At the very least, this probably removes him from consideration there. Probably ought to be removed at Secretary of Labor too.

Jeffrey Epstein: International Moneyman of MysteryHe's pals with a passel of Nobel Prize–winning scientists, CEOs like Leslie Wexner of the Limited, socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, even Donald Trump. But it wasn't until he flew Bill Clinton, Kevin Spacey, and Chris Tucker to Africa on his private Boeing 727 that the world began to wonder who he is.

 

Quote

Before he was Trump's Labor Secretary, U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta brokered a deal with Epstein's attorneys, including Dershowitz, who was also accused by one of Epstein's victims. In making Epstein plead guilty to two prostitution charges in state court, Epstein effectively ended the FBI's investigation into the number of victims and perpetrators in Epstein's sick, sad world. Even after Epstein's crimes went public, Couric, Handler, Stephanopoulos, and fellow creep Woody Allen all had dinner at Epstein's homes. Time's Up, I guess.The Herald reports that despite former President Bill Clinton's and Trump's close friendships with Epstein, "there has been no evidence" that either "engaged in underage sex activities."But it's worth asking, how could Clinton have never heard a single whisper of Epstein's crimes if he flew on Epstein's "Lolita Express" plane a grand total of 26 times, ditching his Secret Service detail on five occasions?Last year a woman claimed in a lawsuit that Epstein's sex trafficking ring recruited from Trump's estate, Mar-a-Lago."He's a lot of fun to be with," Trump said of Epstein in 2002. "It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side."

The reasons I hate Trump are far more delicious than politics. Like all of the Elitists in this Country, even being caught red-handed with underaged women wasnt enough to stop him from running for President.

Dub, you are going to have to stop this. I mean the SJWs in the Democrat Party here are about to explode. This case was put to bed and all their heroes, and DJT too were saved the embarrassment of having their deeds called to light in front of the nation. I mean, where would we be if the Elitists in Washington DC, NYC, and Hollyweird get outed to the point where people in America actually take away their power to become millionaires and billionaires? Where would go to hear the words and thoughts of people that barely got out of high school explain world problems? If we all found out that the Ivy Leaguers in the govt are actually perverted sex addicts would people even listen to them explain how America is the worst problem the world has ever seen and how we are to blame for every single one of the world's problems?

You Sir are about to incur the wrath of the TPM Crowd. How dare you upset their lil world with facts, and knowledge, and real world problems. We are all gonna die in 12 years dont you know that??? That billionaire pedophile and his best friend who is an elected official in the govt told me so when I asked them about raping 14-year-olds with their buddies on Lolita Island.

Epstein's been arrested in New York...

Epstein's been arrested in New York...

Been watching this one for years. Someone in the Federal SDNY has woke up and is suddenly going after Epstein. Epstein has a Johns list of Whos-Who on the West, and East Coast. Here Is Pedophile Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein's Little Black Book. This guy is like a bad SVU Episode. <smh>

https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2019/07/jeffrey-epstein-arrested-charges-sex-trafficking-minors.html

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2019/07/06/jeffrey-epstein-arrested-ny-sex-charges-reports-say/1666808001/

https://www.thedailybeast.com/jeffrey-epstein-arrested-for-sex-trafficking-of-minors-source

The new indictment—which, according to two sources, will be unsealed Monday in Manhattan federal court—will reportedly allege that Epstein sexually exploited dozens of underage girls in a now-familiar scheme: paying them cash for "massages" and then molesting or sexually abusing them in his Upper East Side mansion or his palatial residence in Palm Beach. Epstein will be charged with one count of sex trafficking of minors and one count of conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking of minors—which could put him away for a maximum of 45 years. The case is being handled by the Public Corruption Unit of the Southern District of New York, with assistance from the district's human-trafficking officials and the FBI.

Several of the billionaire's employees and associates allegedly recruited the girls for Epstein's abuse, and some victims eventually became recruiters themselves, according to law enforcement. The girls were as young as 14, and Epstein knew they were underage, according to details of the arrest and indictment shared by two officials.

Epstein's attorney Martin Weinberg declined to comment when reached by The Daily Beast on Saturday night. The SDNY also declined to comment.

“It’s been a long time coming—it’s been too long coming,” said attorney David Boies, who represents Epstein accusers Virginia Roberts Giuffre and Sarah Ransome. “It is an important step towards getting justice for the many victims of Mr. Epstein’s sex trafficking enterprise.

“We hope that prosecutors will not stop with Mr. Epstein because there were many other people who participated with him and made the sex trafficking possible," he told The Daily Beast.

In an era where #MeToo has toppled powerful men, Epstein’s name was largely absent from the national conversation, until the Miami Herald published a three-part series on how his wealth, power and influence shielded him from federal prosecution. For years, The Daily Beast has reported on Epstein’s alleged abuse, starting with Conchita Sarnoff's exposes on his easy jail sentence and soft treatment by the U.S. Attorney’s Office, which ultimately scrapped a 53-page indictment against Epstein. An earlier version of Epstein’s plea deal included a 10-year federal sentence—before his star-studded lawyers threatened to go to trial in a case prosecutors feared was unwinnable, in part because Epstein’s team dredged up dirt on the victims, including social media posts indicating drug use.

Meanwhile, the financier flitted among his homes in Palm Beach, New York City, and the Virgin Islands, as well as his secluded Zorro Ranch in Stanley, New Mexico, transporting young women on his private jet to facilitate the sexual abuse that’s gone unchecked by authorities, his alleged victims say.

In an announcement planned for Monday the FBI is expected to provide a number for other victims to contact the SDNY.As early as 2003, Vicky Ward’s Vanity Fair profile cracked into Epstein’s enigmatic facade and, as Ward noted, revealed “he was definitely not what he claimed to be.” Back then, allegations of sexual abuse leveled by one accuser, Maria Farmer, and her family were excised from Ward’s piece after Epstein pressured the magazine.

Epstein’s bust comes mere months after a federal judge ruled his 2007 non-prosecution agreement—secretly inked under former U.S. Attorney and current Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta—violated federal law by keeping Epstein’s victims in the dark. Under the sweetheart deal, Epstein dodged federal charges that might have sent him to prison for life. He instead pleaded guilty to minor state charges in Palm Beach, and served 13 months in a private wing of a county jail, mostly on work release.

Very simple. He told everyone involved that he would squeal if there wasnt a deal. 

Now that there is new FEDERAL charges. Either a whole bunch of people are about to get their reputations torn to bits OR maybe Ole Jeff will "fall up the stairs."

True........I imagine the guilty is a very very long list of surprising and not so suprising.........regardless I hope every last one get exposed and pay to the max........robbing a child's innocence that they can never get back should carry no less than a life without parole........and for those that believe there is a hell...........everlasting torment for the guilty.
