If the FL State's Atty Kirscher had followed the PB Police recommendations, charged Epstein & taken it to trial, the whole thing could have been nipped in the bud. If they did not convict, then the DoJ should have followed with the only thing they could charge -- trafficking.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 2:57 pm No big deal.... just your garden variety statutory rape.....

Corruption can be pervasive, especially in Florida. Of course the NYC cops didn’t make him check in and the doormen on the block saw who came and went and said nothing.

Re: Sexual Assault ~ #MeToo ~ #TimesUp
Here's where they had Epstein & first let him off the hook :
Krischer = PB State's Atty ; Recarey = PB Police lead detective.
Krischer = PB State's Atty ; Recarey = PB Police lead detective.
https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/ ... 10674.html
In May 2006, Recarey drew up probable cause affidavits, charging Epstein, two of his assistants and one recruiter with sex-related crimes. Instead, Krischer took what Recarey said was the unusual step of referring the case to a state grand jury. Epstein was indicted in state court on a minor charge of solicitation of prostitution.
Recarey said Krischer told him he didn’t believe Epstein’s accusers, and only two of them were called before the state grand jury investigating the case — even though police had lined up more than a dozen girls and witnesses at that time.
Believing that the case had been tainted, Reiter — that same month, May 2006 — took a very public stance against Krischer, writing a letter, which was released to the news media, calling on Krischer to remove himself from the case. The chief then referred it to the FBI, which opened its own investigation in July 2006, FBI records show.

Acosta agreed to tip-off Epstein’s lawyers if someone tried to make the agreement public, “If the United State receives a Freedom of Information request or any compulsory process commanding the disclosure of the agreement . . .the government had to warn The Jeffrey.

Re: Sexual Assault ~ #MeToo ~ #TimesUp
True. And the MSM media and various fact checkers have debunked it...not that there's been much of an explanation as to why Trump and co never did anything to object to their brand being used. For years and years. Had to know, right? They sued others, but not the Escort company. Was that because it was at least 'on brand'?runrussellrun wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 2:15 pmI can not stand tRump as a person. But, the trump escorts thing........nothing to do with Donald TRUMP.

Trump and the teen beauty contest ?
But so much else to critique, don't really need that one...

Saw the beginnings of some reporting on this. His mentor at Bear Stearns did 20 years for what was then the largest Ponzi scheme in history (before Madoff). Mento claims Epstein stole his money. Other reporting is that in the '80's Epstein claimed he was helping people recover stolen money...smells like he was helping rich people hide their money from the tax man.

Re: Sexual Assault ~ #MeToo ~ #TimesUp
Yup, the police fought the good fight, some of the victims fought hard, an attorney for the victims faced death threats, one dogged reporter wouldn't let it go.old salt wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 2:23 pmHere's the answer :old salt wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 1:34 pmOCanada wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 1:33 pm Because he was the DOJ. In this cases DOJ makes the final call that is why
Because statements like"it is obvious he did not want to prosecute because he thought he would lose" is foolish. It is why he no longer has a job. His Friday presser was filled with lies and distortions. Further is sweetheart plea deal was an gross aberration and illegal.BS. What did the FL Prosecutor get out of his Grand Jury ? What plea deal did the FL prosecutor offer Epstein, before Acosta intervened ?Here's all the gory details of what Epstein's legal team did to destroy the case at the local level & attempts to intimidate the State's Attorney & PB Police. The State's Attorneys caved, the police persisted. It also describes how Epstein's legal team attacked some of the victims in civil trials.https://www.huffpost.com/entry/jeffrey- ... vTkJ-Q73Nd
2005: Reported to police by a 14-year-old girl and her parents
The teenager said in March 2005 that she was taken by a peer to Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion, where she says he paid her to give him a massage. An ensuing police investigation signaled that Epstein was in contact with multiple girls, and his staff said the girls visited frequently.
May 2006: Charged with multiple counts of unlawful sex acts with a minor
The state attorney at the time, Barry Krischer, referred the case to a grand jury. A grand jury heard from just two of the dozen-plus girls law enforcement had gathered as witnesses, the Miami Herald reported, and returned an indictment of one count of soliciting prostitution.
July 2006: Referred to the FBI for investigation
Under pressure from Palm Beach police, who were unhappy with the state’s handling of its case against Epstein, the FBI launched its own investigation.
https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/ ... 10674.html
Epstein's high priced legal team overran Acosta & his prosecutors, just as they had the locals.
The part I disagree with is the notion that the prosecutors, at all levels perhaps, simply didn't think they could win the case and were just intimidated by the money (but if they were, shame on them). Seems far more likely that heavyweights leaned on these folks, that it was made darn obvious that their careers would be destroyed and possibly worse. Big money and power, seductive. Some players may have been bought off, some scared by career threats made or implied.
The enablers, the curriers of favors, those who knew and looked the other way, those who participated...nail them. TimesUp.

My friend told me that he has not met anyone that has ever met anyone from Epstein's firm and that he and another colleague have met with every significant PE firm or hedge fund that utilizes closed end vehicles and at his present firm, he and another MD have met with every VC firm in NYC. He has been wondering what's going for weeks. He mentioned two weeks ago that another shoe will drop.

Scummy folks tend to be scummy in more than one aspect of their lives.

Money, sex, power...an intoxicating mix.
Some exceptions to that rule, ala the priests and school teachers etc who have otherwise exemplary lives of service to others, often beloved...but corruption breeds other corruption, those who looked the other way...
Re: Sexual Assault ~ #MeToo ~ #TimesUp
Trump Escorts is a Trump related trademark registered in China and is the only one registered there. So not exactjy fake news.
On the other hand some digging reveals while registered it has never been used and is probably defensive to prevent someone else from registering it

Re: Sexual Assault ~ #MeToo ~ #TimesUp
BTW DOJ has a 57 page indictment drawn up and ready to go. The stench from the plea deal is worse than you think. One item for example gives Epstein and his attorneys veto powerful over the attorneys who would represent the girls. There were more than 100 witnesses interviewed and dozens of victims. In another case there was one victim and Acosta prosecuted it harshly about the same times
