Perhaps Epstein read the book and it gave him some sick ideas. If Bob Barr knew that connection it would have given him a personal reason to censor this.

Before my eyes were fully focused, I read that as “Bill Burr.”
Without trying to sound too conspiratorial, it may be no coincidence that Barr ended up as attorney general, and was therefore able to appoint a “special prosecutor” like Durham, whose job it was to dither and ultimately fail to uncover the truth about the plot to undermine the first Trump administration. Barr also threw cold water on the investigation of any 2020 election shenanigans.

When it was published in 1973, nobody referred to men being attracted to teenage girls as “pedophilia”. Rather, that term was applied to attraction to prepubescent boys or girls. Indeed, in 1973, the age of consent in the US was still under 15 in a number of states.

The correct term for attraction to post-pubescent teenagers was and still is “ephebophilia”.

In 1973, women were expected to marry in their late teens to early 20s. Thus, an iconic virginal “ideal” might have been projected a bit younger than that.

Of course, the Barrs and Epsteins of the world are total scum, and for a high school educator to have written this tripe is disturbing.

Bill Barr’s father was also an agent for the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) and later a recruiter for the CIA. He was also a professor at Columbia University where FDR attended law school and subsequently named Wild Bill Donavan, his classmate at Columbia to head the OSS when it was created.

Bill Barr became a CIA agent while in college and worked for them full time after graduation. The CIA paid for Bill Barr’s law degree while he was employed by them.

Re: "very young and unqualified"

Interesting, but Epstein was widely recognized as a gifted math scholar.

After brief employment at the elite school, Epstein was hired by the father of one of his students, who was CEO of Bear Stearns, a well known Wall Street financial firm.

Within a few years, Epstein was advising wealthy Bear Stearns clients on tax strategies and creating financial deals.

In his late twenties, he started his own Wall Street consulting firm and began assembling his own financial deals as a full partner.

Epstein was a bad person, but the alleged mystery about his wealth (several hundred million dollars) does not hold up under scrutiny.

It being Wikipedia, I’m sure the article has been heavily sanitized, but even so it’s pretty weird.

Startling and tragic, but this story seems to have provided the missing link in why Bill Barr could have been involved in Epstein’s ultimate fate. Perhaps, even why he turned against Trump so completely.

Epstein worked for Barr’s father.

So, because Barrs father did something, we are holding Barr accountable for it?

Are we living in medieval Europe now?

Here is the link to Wikipedia for the Donald Barr write-up

He was headmaster of the Dalton School from 1964 to 1974. During his time as Dalton's headmaster, Barr is alleged to have had a role in hiring future financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as a math teacher despite the fact that Epstein (who graduated from high school at the age of 16 and secured a full scholarship to Cooper Union) had failed to complete his degree and was only 21 years old at the time. In 1973, Barr published Space Relations, a science fiction novel about a planet ruled by oligarchs who engage in child sex slavery. It has been noted that the plot of the novel anticipates the crimes of Epstein and his convicted and prosecuted accomplice (the list of politicians and celebrities involved in sex crimes remains hidden), Ghislaine Maxwell.

Here is the Wikipedia write-up about the Space Relations book

Space Relations: A Slightly Gothic Interplanetary Tale is a space opera novel by Donald Barr, the father of former US Attorney General William Barr and former employer of Jeffrey Epstein, originally published on 17 September 1973 by Charterhouse and distributed by McKay. It was reprinted by Fawcett Crest Books in February 1975. It is one of only two novels Barr is known to have written, the other being A Planet in Arms.

Plot

In the future, humans have formed an intergalactic empire ruled by aristocrats. During a time of war with the Plith, an empire of ant-like alien bug people, ambassador John Craig, a formerly Liberal Earth man in his 30s, is dispatched to the strategically important planet Kossar, a human colony that was settled by the Carlyle Society as a place of exile for political extremists and now is ruled by an oligarchical high council of seven nobles, each of whom is in charge of a different domain with its own traditions. Their boredom and absolute power have driven them to madness, to the point that Kossar's entry into the empire has been stymied by the Man-Inhabited Planets Treaty's clause (written by Craig) against alliances with slave owning societies, due to its practice of kidnapping humans to become illegal playthings of the galaxy's super-rich.

Craig, who now is campaigning to bring Kossar into the empire, had previously been to the planet when the passenger ship on which he was travelling on a return trip from the Betelgeuse Conference was captured by space pirates. While enroute to Kassar, one of the pirates awakened Craig and the other prisoners to rape a 15-year-old virginal redheaded female captive in front of them; the rapist's fellow pirates later hear of this and dock his pay as punishment for spoiling her market value. Craig then spent two years as a slave of the beautiful, sensual, and sadistic Lady Morgan Sidney, the only female member of the oligarchy, with whom he became romantically involved. Together, they lived in her castle, ruling over and engaging in sexual relations with those under their dominion, including an enslaved teenager at a clinic used to breed enslaved people. When Craig stumbles on hints of an alien invasion, he realizes he must escape to save humanity.

Craig is depicted as undisturbed by Lady Morgan's sadism. When he is ordered to sexually assault the enslaved teenager, he enjoys his participation in the act.

Maybe Barr shares Epstein's love of youth? Barr wears kilts because sheep can hear zippers.
This is an old photo of Bushie Barr.
