Jeffrey Epstein due in federal court after sex trafficking arrest, preyed on young girls,
Fox News ^ | July 8,2019 | Travis Fedschun

An indictment alleging sex trafficking and sex trafficking conspiracy was unsealed Monday morning against billionaire financier and registered sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, who is set to make his first appearance in a New York City federal court later in the day.

Epstein is being held at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, a federal jail near the Manhattan courthouse where he is due to appear Monday afternoon. Federal prosecutors are set to announce details at a press conference at 11 a.m. ET.

Attorney David Boies told Fox News on Sunday that he expected more superseding indictments would be added. Boies said both the public corruption unit and the sex trafficking unit in New York worked the investigation.

“This is an important first step. Hopefully, prosecutors will focus on some of his [Epstein’s] co-conspirators going forward,” Boies told Fox News.

Former federal prosecutor David Weinstein told the Associated Press there's almost no chance Epstein will be allowed to go home after the hearing. Under federal court rules, prosecutors can keep a defendant locked up for three extra days while preparing for a bail hearing without needing a reason. If that happens in Epstein's case, it would mean a bail hearing on Thursday.

And got permission to keep doing it after a sweetheart deal in 07.
There are laws for is and they do not apply to the ruling class, nor their money machines.

Everyone needs to see this video. This man knows more about all that went on concerning anyone.

Trump helped the prosecutor. Go to 5:00 mark in video.

He spent 13 months in prison.

No he didn’t. It was JAIL, not prison. In his OWN WING of the jail, nobody else.

Full time at the jail was only on WEEKENDS —it was part-time during weekdays, when he only SLEPT at the jail.

Yeah, he checked himself in, like a hotel.

And the cops had IDed THREE HUNDRED VICTIMS.

Epstein was an FBI INFORMANT, THAT is how he got off so light.

He’s a scumbag who assisted the professional scumbags of the FBI, which should not exist.

State prosecutors in Florida and New York will also prosecute him. He has no choice but to talk.

““This is an important first step. Hopefully, prosecutors will focus on some of his [Epstein’s] CO-CONSPIRATORS going forward,” Boies told Fox News.”

We shall see, but I doubt it. We shall see just how serious Barr’s DOJ is about dealing with corrupt politicians - and Epstein has a LOT of them among his “friends”.

This is one instance in which I fervently wish “enhanced interrogation” were allowed, record every second of it and make it public.

Exactly right. Leniency for the wealthy elites, punishment for the unwashed masses.

Flight risk? Hardly.

If he gets the political cover he’s enjoyed for years, he has no reason to leave. If DOJ is serious and intends to put this slimebag in a real prison for the rest of his life, his life expectancy will be very, very short.
