It’s probably going to be quite hard to prosecute and deliver evidence given that a lot of it will be illegal by its very nature, not to mention unethical to release to the public even as a leak. Also, at least two of them are former US presidents. They are powerful people in general, so it would be very easy for evidence to just disappear into a memory hole, and if you’re going after people like this, you need all your ducks in a row.

Like one thing Epstein did was sell himself as a patron of arts & science, so lots of these names will be associated with him for that reason alone. And you could argue it was generally known he was a sleazebag, but you also need a level of tolerance for sleazebags to have a career in hollywood or politics at all.

I know my solution: dismantle the whole rotten fucking system, but the courts are beholden to the same systems of power these people wield. We can’t expect much more than a limited hangout from them.
