This unfortunately remains a scary and dangerous world for the victims, who suffer interminably and many pay with their lives, despite the perpetrators being identified and punished(but not enough). The powerful get away with every crime.....a bitter, sad, ugly, and hard to swallow truth.
"Presumably, now that she is gone, he is free to repeat those denials. How convenient."
Yes, it's a little too convenient for my tastes. It's time we lock up/guillotine the lot of these sick perverts in high places with big bank accounts. It's the only way any of us can ever be safe.
Thank you so much for articulating these thoughts. I found Virginia Giuffre's "suicide" suspicious, even as I found Jeffrey Epstein's "suicide" suspicious. I have also found certain fatak "accidents" dubious, to say the least. We must recognize the power a certain class of people now have. It is an understatement to suggest that they can "get away with murder."
We must also ask why so many people are willing to look the other way. This was highlighted almost nine years ago. Trump declared, “I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose voters.” Sadly, he probably wouldn't.
Remember the woman who testified against Jeffrey Archer - got killed by a motorbike. Remember the journalist who broke the News of the World phone hacking story - got found dead in his empty flat of 'suicide', after stating to friends that he was afraid he would be killed.
I think McAfee should be added to the list of their victims. A couple of days before he was found in his cell in Barcelona he had tweeted that he was enjoying life and had no thoughts of suicide and that if he was found dead then it was murder. McAfee knew where a lot of bodies were buried.
Absolutely the truth, Ricky. Epstein as Mossad agent (why the IDF Intelligence as Andrew Thomas suggests below - and in any case how different would it be from Mossad)...and protectors of the Black Book.
A conspiracy theory is a theory based on an idea that authorities in control (whether line management, or government) are complicit in something secret that has negative connotations for the man in the street. But, the term itself is almost always used by these authorities, to rubbish the claims. Under the law of evidence, you cannot, of course, prove a negative. And proof of a positive is ordinarily not available in these cases, not to the man in the street. Instead, he must surmise that such and such is the situation. And that relies on gut feeling, statistical repetition and case-by-case comparison.
That leaves us with a tremendous number of apparent coincidences, extrapolated from cases of similar dimension (an ordinary person blowing the whistle on reprehensible conduct by a person in authority), and the numbers of such coincidences would tend to one of two conclusions, one of which is the more intuitive than the other. For instance, in terms of Russian officials criticising the war in Ukraine, either (i) the Russians as a people, and high-ranking officials in particular, lack a great deal of situational awareness in the presence of staircases and open windows, or (ii) they get pushed.
Either way there is little you or I can do about the incidence of defenestrations and stair-case tumbling acts except, perhaps, to note that they are higher in number in the Russian Federation than for example, where I live.
But, it's an interesting proposition in (the rule of) law: if there were a smoking gun (and the case of Prince Andrew as good as has one), would the full force of the law be brought to bear on the miscreant? Well, we know the answer to that one: yes. For, make no mistake, that was the full force (of something) that was brought to bear on Mr Epstein. I'll lay money that Prince Andrew is only still walking free because she was 17, within a whisker of full age. The law must draw its lines somewhere and here it's the 18th birthday (or whatever it is where you are). The day before, you go to prison for 20 years. The day itself, you're struck from one or two Christmas card lists and that's it. But the line that's drawn by people's interpretations of the law is much more flexible.
If we see someone breaking the law, it is our duty as citizens to inform the police. More is not asked of us. If a robbery or murder is committed and we believe we may have seen something of relevance, like a shady character or a strangely parked van, good conscience demands that we come forward with our information. For crimes with which we have no contact, we read the papers and feel incensed. But. But, there are some criminal acts whose very commission does not so much betray the act per se as the crime that it constitutes, as, instead, to advertise to all-comers that the perpetrator of this act spares not a passing thought for the crime they have committed, but will certainly do so if a witness or police officer were to take an interest in the matter.
There are some creatures in the jungle around which even the lion will steer a wide berth.
it's meaningless to say it's overwhelmingly likely that a woman was murdered to protect a paedophile ring, given at least 7 others have died in similar circumstances, and authorities are refusing to seriously investigate or offer any transparency? That's your definition of meaningless?
I have actually seen an interview with a high-up Israeli whistleblower in which he said Epstein was not Mossad; that he was IDF Intelligence, which he said was a completely different entity. For whatever that is worth.

Won't those reptiles be surprised when we turn them into cowboy boots!
Normal suicide involving Clinton’s is usually2 head shots.

Murder with impunity seems to have become an international sport!
Interesting times indeed !!!
But nothing new:
It's always been about horny dicks ...

I don't believe Giuffre is dead. She and Epstein are enjoying life somewhere in this world.
How can you be so very sure it was an assassination??
In intelligence circles (see Michael Sellers here on a recent series concerning Trump's connections to the Soviet Union: https://michaeldsellers.substack.com/p/trump-and-kgb-how-it-all-began-part), the phrase is tactful: “a possibility not to be excluded.”

same way I can be sure Prince Andrew is a nonce
being sure of something without evidence or proof is meaningless
it's meaningless to say it's overwhelmingly likely that a woman was murdered to protect a paedophile ring, given at least 7 others have died in similar circumstances, and authorities are refusing to seriously investigate or offer any transparency? That's your definition of meaningless?
7 others out of how many? how did they all die? how old were they?
I have actually seen an interview with a high-up Israeli whistleblower in which he said Epstein was not Mossad; that he was IDF Intelligence, which he said was a completely different entity. For whatever that is worth.
Thanks for this. Duly taken with a grain of salt.
Interesting
The reason that Epstein's story impacts 'national security' reaches far beyond kiddie-fiddling!
