Jeffrey Epstein matter reopened... going to get ugly

[Michchamp]

Link (kudos to the Miami Herald for doing actual journalism...):

Jeffrey Epstein spent a second night in a New York jail cell Sunday, with a federal indictment expected to be unsealed Monday, charging him with sex offenses involving underage girls he and others allegedly trafficked in New York and Florida, sources have told the Miami Herald.

His Saturday arrest capped months of investigating, led by federal agents and prosecutors with the Southern District of New York?s Public Corruption Unit, assisted by investigators with the sex trafficking division. Although details of the case remain undisclosed, there are indications that others involved in his crimes could be charged or named as cooperating witnesses.
​

for those who don't know anything about this case, Epstein led a Miami & NYC operation that groomed underage girls to be prostitutes, and then supplied them to his friends. Epstein's "friends" included the Clintons (pics of Bill with an allegedly underage girl on one of the flights), Alan Dershowitz, and Prince Andrew, among the most notable names.

And Trump's secretary of labor, Alex Acosta, is under fire - rightfully so - for brokering the plea deal that let Epstein go with a short jail term, served privately, without any knowledge of the victims. The plea deal was later held to be illegal. (link)

The degree of un-self aware depravity of two of the recently elected presidents Hollywood would never green light anything so beyond incomprehensibly implausible.

The degree of un-self aware depravity of two of the recently elected presidents Hollywood would never green light anything so beyond incomprehensibly implausible.

On Saturday, Trump biographer Tim O?Brien tweeted this 2002 quote by the future president, taken from a New York Magazine profile: ?I?ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy. He?s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.?

As part of its explosive investigation into the Epstein case published in November, the Miami Herald listed Clinton as one of his friends and associates, saying the ex-president often flew in Epstein?s plane and visited his island. The Herald also reported that Epstein donated to the Clinton Foundation.

The newspaper said there?s no evidence Trump or Clinton was involved in underage sex activities.​

No evidence... right. It would be totally out of character for either of them to nail an underage prostitute while jet-setting around with wealthy fraudster, or "financier" as such types prefer to be known.

If this administration has taught me anything, it's that I still hate reality TV.

Slick Willie used 18 diff burner phones - all of them were in Epstein's contact list. What does a former President need 18 burners for and why did Epstein have all of them in his little black book?

Because he was a scumbag. Lock him up!

HERE?S ALL THE TWISTED SH*T FOUND IN EPSTEIN?S HOME DURING FBI RAID

Includes child porn, a painting of Epstein in prison, and signed photo of Bill Clinton

The FBI arrested billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein for sex trafficking, and raided his Manhattan mansion over the weekend.

During the course of the raid of his $77 million 7-floor private townhome, the FBI found a number of bizarre ? and even criminal ? items along with strange design features in Epstein?s home.

The most damning thing the FBI discovered was a ?vast trove? of lewd photos of young women and girls, some of which were found in a locked safe.

Epstein also had commissioned a bizarre mural found on the second floor, showing him in the middle of a prison scene surrounded by barbed wire, guards and a guard station.

Reportedly he had told a recent guest, ?That?s me, and I had this painted because there is always the possibility that could be me again.?

Many other odd things were found, including:

? A wall decorated with photos of director Woody Allen, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia, and a signed photo of former President Bill Clinton.

? A custom-made chess board with each of the figurines dressed in underwear, reportedly modeled after his employees. Creepy!

? A massage room filled with sex toys.

? A life-size doll hanging from a chandelier and a dining room designed to resemble a beach.

? A 20-seat dining table surrounded by computer screens and phones.

? A full-sized dental chair installed in his bathroom.

Epstein ? a registered sex offender ? pleaded not guilty Monday at a Lower Manhattan court to two counts of sex trafficking dozens of minors, and will be held without bail at least until a July 15 detention hearing.

Conservative commentator Ann Coulter says that sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein had a ?state sponsor? backing him and that his operation was a way to blackmail powerful men.
During an appearance on 790 KABC, Coulter suggested that Epstein is merely the front man for a far more powerful network.

?Epstein according to both the girls accounts, he wanted them to have sex with powerful men, come back to him and report on it, describe what they wanted what their fetishes were and he had cameras throughout the house so this is obviously for blackmailing purposes,? said Coulter.

?It just seems to me something much bigger is behind this ? perhaps a state sponsor ? powerful enough people ? it just seems to me there?s something a very powerful force behind what?s going on here and I am still nervous about this not coming to a conclusion, somehow this getting compromised,? she added.

Coulter said that it remained a mystery as to how Epstein became a billionaire and that the source of his money should be investigated.

It's amazing what some seem to know about every fucking thread started on this board.

Did Bill, like Hillary, pour bleach on his 'burner phones?'

Yes, I was listening to this interview on 790 KABC with Anne Coulter and the show hosts Jillian Barberie and John Phillips.

How did her comments become a national story?

Interesting observation from the guy who quotes "Scent of a Woman" on a football board - and it's almost as amazing as how little some posters who only watch CNN know about anything. i dont recall anything about Hillary bleaching her burners. Didnt she have a staffer smash then with a hammer - probably got the idea from the Patriot's locker room attendant.
