    Why haven't the victims come forth with any names? 20 something of them out there, now almost 30 years old and no one is talking?
    They ought to be naming names because the know who they had sex with. But no, interviewing the pilots is now the big deal.

    Now now.

    It is wrong, unless a rich and powerful and well connected white man does it. Then it is just one of those things, where the guy is a little eccentric. Besides, they PAY the girls, and besides in Europe it is okay..... rich white men have the ability and competence to have sex with attractive teenage girls........ however, no white trash or negro better try it, the hammer of justice will come down harsh and swiftly, almost as swift as public opinion.

    It is a standard prosecutory tactics. You give immunity to the small fish in order to get to the big fish. Epstein should be able to help with prosecuting or investigating Trump. Maybe America and I will be surprised that Trump did not engage in sex with underage children.

    In this particular crime Epstein is the big fish.

    Why should he get immunity?

    What the **** does Hilary Clinton have to do with this? Is there anything you don't politicize?

    No way you give him immunity to get some dirt on someone else.

    No one is offering epstein "immunity', but a plea bargain for sentencing and fines is certainly possible though depending on the cases he can corroborate and testify to. Probably those crimes would include tax evasion, money laundering and bank fraud more than statutory rape though. Federal crimes with a money trail for actors the government can seize profitable assets from. Crimes by financial institutions that can be fined also.

    Sadly, I'd guess the threat of exposure for sex crimes will be used for witness intimidation more than justice for the victims.

    ......... Dershowitz is hilarious, worst lawyer ever.

    That's messed up. In some dimensions, Trump might be the bigger miscreant, but in the injustices allegedly perpetrated on these underage girls, I don't see how he can be more to blame than Epstein. You can make a deal to catch the bigger fish for the sake of a greater justice for the victims, but it would be wrong to exploit their victimization to achieve somebody else's justice.

    How does giving up those 2 equal him not facing charges of his own?

    what is the greater good with giving up those 2 and him going free?

    Why are they more guilty than him?

    I don't necessarily agree with the logic but I would assume the argument is that Trump and Clinton have significantly more clout and taking them down IF they are partially involved in these underage sex cult like parties would hit much harder in the underground sex trafficking ring as even the most privlaged invidividuals who are consumers of these vile entities would feel mortal and within the reach of our justice system.

    But letting Eipstein go with impunity is not worth Clinton or Trump.

    i think Epstien all e would be the biggest fish, he is the one with the network and who has a track record.

    what message would that send it he got immunity?

    That if you start an international under age sex trafficking ring, you better attract big players to partake in it because it could be your get out of jail free card.

    I disagree completely with offering immunity. If there is speculation of Trump, Clinton and other big political players involved, it's my hope that there should already be corroborating evidence available from the women who were used by these men. Unless there is some evidence of those girls going missing, I hope other evidence will surface to bring down all scumbags involved.
