Hey, troll-boi. I knew you'd be showing up to gloat that they got away with it.

Hey bags, we've got a *ahem* "live one" here!

Hey, troll-boi. I knew you'd be showing up to gloat that they got away with it.

Whose gloating? I was looking forward to a long life as a cooperating witness from Epstein, and it sucks he was permitted to kill himself.

It's pretty much what you would expect if there really is a conspiracy of vast power that can even reach into Federal prisons and make problems go away.

It sucks on many levels that he's dead before trial.

My three comments on this thread have been that

• The civil case against Maxwell was settled. Here is an AP story that includes that fact, which a lot of other reporting has not mentioned:

  In Major Development, Court Orders Unsealing of Docs Related to Alleged Epstein Sex Trafficking Ring

  Maxwell paid millions of dollars to end the lawsuit, according to the above.

• The laws regarding use of military tribunals,

  which people keep claiming can be used to try American citizens willy-nilly, but which the rules for are quite clear can not be (I have previously posted the actual laws, and won't do so again here, it's easy enough to find) .

• And a comment that 8ch is still off line, which at least at the Jack Black residence, it appears to be.

None of that reflects any happiness with the outcome of this affair.

Thanks!
