Strangely, the media have suddenly taken an intense interest in the case of pedophile and major Democratic donor Jeffrey Epstein.
In 2005, the Palm Beach police were told by the mother of a young girl in West Palm Beach that her daughter had been brought to the Democratic donor's mansion and asked to have sex with him for money. This kicked off an intensive, one-year undercover investigation.
The police sifted through Epstein's garbage and interviewed 17 witnesses, including the housemen, who told of sex toys and dildos left behind after the underage girls left. One of Epstein's procurers, a 20-year-old local woman named Haley Robson, who was paid $200 for every teenaged girl she brought to Jeffrey, was cooperating with police, telling them she was like "Heidi Fleiss." They obtained statements from five of Epstein's young victims, who said they'd been paid $200 to $300 to engage in various sex acts with him. Police raided Epstein's home, finding explicit photographs of teenaged girls, incriminating phone records -- and one girl's high school transcript.
But when the police chief brought this mountain of evidence to Palm Beach County's Democratic prosecutor Barry Krischer, he punted, charging the Democrat child molester with only one count of soliciting prostitution -- yes, the child victims were labeled "prostitutes" -- and offered Epstein probation.
Perhaps Krischer was exhausted, having just spent three years hounding Rush Limbaugh for abusing back pain medication.
Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter exploded in rage. (Meanwhile, Epstein claimed to be the victim of an anti-Semitic conspiracy on Palm Beach.) Chief Reiter wrote an open letter to Krischer asking the Democrat to remove himself from the case. Then he turned to the Bush administration to seek justice against a Democratic donor/accused child rapist.
As stories go, a child sex case involving a Palm Beach billionaire was pretty big. It was covered in the British press, in Florida media, at The New York Post and at Fox News. Bill O'Reilly led with the story on his Fox News show.
But CNN and MSNBC did not breathe a word about a Democratic prosecutor refusing to hold a Democratic child rapist accountable.
Epstein had given more than $145,000 to Democratic candidates and causes, including Bill Clinton, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton and Chuck Schumer. He was a big Israel backer. Bill Clinton and Democratic activist Ron Burkle were frequent guests on Epstein's private plane, dubbed the "Lolita Express." And Krischer was a hero for his dogged pursuit of Rush Limbaugh! Why bring up all this unpleasantness?
Thanks to Chief Reiter, President Bush's U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Alex Acosta, did take the case, despite the fact that only Epstein's child rapes on his plane, on his private island or with girls brought across state lines would make it a federal case.
As a result of the (Republican-led) federal investigation, Epstein was finally required to plead guilty to two state felony charges, accept a sentence of two years in prison, register as a sex offender, and pay restitution to his victims.
Still no coverage by MSNBC or CNN.
Inasmuch as Epstein was pleading guilty to a state charge, the matter of his confinement was out of the U.S. attorney's hands. It was Democratic county prison officials -- not the feds -- who placed Epstein in a private wing of the county jail and allowed him to spend 12 hours a day, six days a week at his Palm Beach mansion throughout his 13-month "imprisonment."
In 2014, the brilliant conservative lawyer Paul Cassell and Bradley Edwards brought suit against the federal prosecutors for violating the Crime Victims' Rights Act in the Epstein case.
As bad as the U.S. attorney's office was, at least it did something. Democrat Krischer gave Epstein a walk. But no matter how appalling Krischer's behavior was, the Crime Victims' Rights Act only applies to federal prosecutions.
When Cassell and Edwards filed their case, they included the claims of various Epstein victims, who reported that the men at "Orgy Island," where underage girls were being used as "sex slaves," included Bill Clinton, Alan Dershowitz and Prince Andrew.
CNN gave extensive coverage to the celebrity-filled allegations, inviting Dershowitz on to defend himself and lavishing attention on the irrelevant prince. Amazingly, but characteristically, not once did CNN mention that Bill Clinton was named in the pleadings.
Only one show on MSNBC, "All In With Chris Hayes," so much as acknowledged the bombshell case, also without letting on that Clinton had been named as a frequent Epstein guest by the child victims.
But recently, the very news outlets that spiked any news about this case for the past 13 years are suddenly hot on the trail of Jeffrey Epstein. Why the newfound sense of decency?
The answer is: Because they found a Trump connection. There's a 2002 quote from Donald Trump saying nice things about Epstein and photographic proof that Epstein was one of the hundreds of thousands of people who have been to Mar-a-Lago. (There are rumors he has also been to the Grand Canyon and the Empire State Building.)
This is how the modern American media work: I'll tell the same story that we've been frantically suppressing for a decade, connect it to Trump -- and win a Pulitzer Prize!
Here is MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell describing Epstein a few weeks ago in a single segment:
"... a friend of Donald Trump, Jeffrey Epstein ...
"... child sex trafficker and child rapist and friend of Donald Trump, Jeffrey Epstein ...
"... a billionaire friend of Donald Trump's ..."
Epstein was a "friend" of Donald Trump's the same way he is a "friend" of Pinch Sulzberger by virtue of reading The New York Times. He's been to Trump's club. (That is, until Trump barred him for propositioning the underage daughter of a member.)
But pay no attention to Jeffrey Epstein and his roster of Democratic enablers -- this is a Trump scandal!
It seems that the U.S. attorney who oversaw the federal prosecution, Alex Acosta, is currently Trump's Labor secretary. Trump didn't know Acosta's name during the Epstein prosecution, but liberals think they've unraveled Trump's decade-long scheme to reward Acosta for being lenient on Epstein –- aka "friend of Donald Trump's."
The silver lining is that we finally have a way to make Hillary Clinton pay for her crimes. Trump has to appoint her to his Cabinet. Then we'll see the entire American press corps chanting, "Lock her up!"
What I think would be sweet justice - Hillary lucks out and gets the nomination just as AG Barr has everything lined up to put her @$$ in jail.
Oh, and yeah, all her buds too.
Biden slogan: “I feel your fam.”
And if anyone thinks that Acosta had anything to do with how the case played out, then there are probably millions that would love to get a hold of the drugs you’re doing. Not exactly sure how you can go from federal charges to pleading to stated charges. Federal law enforcement involves local law enforcement, in task forces, all over the country. It’s done:
1. One, for manpower reasons. The feds can beef up their numbers, by doling out overtime and toys to the locals.
2. Any cases that are made that don’t meet a federal threshold, can quickly be kicked down to state court.
3. The Feds work by a different set of rules when it comes to getting search and arrest warrants. The locals can get those things much quicker, where the Feds have a rather lengthy process.
Anywho, once something lands in federal court, it pretty much stays there, until final adjudication. If someone walks in a federal trial, then they can TRIED in State Court. It’s kind of like a fail-safe for federal prosecutions. Can’t get ‘em on the Federal level, then we’ll get ‘em on the State level. But the Feds always come first.
My point, given the fact that all the records for this case are sealed for some unknown reason(thought all records were public, unless they dealt with TS National Security information), so no one knows what’s in there. And the fact that it was kicked down to the State level, where Acosta had no jurisdiction should tell EVERYONE, that they were protecting some people. It was taken out of his hands and kicked down to the State Attorney’s office or Florida AG for final adjudication.
And Donald J Trump isn’t one of the ones being protected.
This kind of suppression and denial is pure evil on a biblical scale.
Good. Let the #FakeNews networks bring this all up. That opens the door to bring up all this “old news” about DemonRat pedos. They can only say “Epstein went to Mara Lago” so many times before it gets lame.
The only thing Trump did was not outright condemn Epstein.
I’d like to see liars who come cuddling to the right to be saved, get theirs. That married troll-like King Of Constitutional Law, Dershowitz, has been cuddling up to Trump and Hannity and Prager for about a year now, and we see why. Conservatives love those who show us respect, even if it’s just to save their own hides. Dersh’s reverence for the law runs deep, right down to his navel. That’s where it no longer applies. He raped the underaged sex slave of Epstein’s 5 or more times, in 3 states and in the air. And he thinks his brilliance can help him get away with it.
It might work. Performing great moonwalks let Michael Jackson get away with it for a lifetime. Dersh has been moonwalking on Fox News all these months.
Joe the GROPER!!! p.s. NIX the Viet Nam FAKE one...the others are POWERFUL enough to NAIL CREEPY JOE!
Yaelle, “The Feds work by a different set of rules when it comes to getting search and arrest warrants. The locals can get those things much quicker, where the Feds have a rather lengthy process.” Could you tell this to Roger Stone? “All the records for this case are sealed” If this is thoroughly investigated it will reveal such corruption that it will make Caligula look like a choir boy. Epstein has a library of video tapes worth billions. The article does not mention that Trump also visited Epstein’s orgy island. I hope he had the sense to realize what Epstein was up to. Still, he has been signing budgets that fund the deep state and has not insisted that people like Maxine Waters be investigated. Mr. President RELEASE THE DOCUMENTS!
Plus one
Projection combined by leftist media information warfare that they euphemize as news is the weapon of choice by these domestic enemies of the US Constitution.
JoMa
Wow.
(Meanwhile, Epstein claimed to be the victim of an anti-Semitic conspiracy on Palm Beach.)
This shouldn’t surprise anyone.
I mentioned it on another web site. About Clinton and Epstein.
A rabid Never Trump “Republican” threw in a mention of Trump.
I responded with “Clinton was a frequent guest at Pedo Island, and mentioned by multiple witnesses. Do you have ANYTHING that indicates the same about Trump?
Crickets.
“Strangely, the media have suddenly taken an intense interest in the case of pedophile and major Democratic donor Jeffrey Epstein.”
Does that mean they are going after Bill Clinton for his 26 trips to Pedophile Isle....oh wait...HaHaHaHaHa.
He's a kiddie diddler
For later.....maybe they will step on their own **** trying to get President Trump.
