It's always been a little club at the top. So many don't even realize that.

Why do you think they allowed her to live?

People don't have to even say a word... everyone from the Judge to the court officer knows that if anything gets out... they may end up "committing suicide".

But if they play ball... they will all get something.

Some say she's being scapegoated after Epstein failed to make to trial.

Probably going through the motions to say they did something while some will get a career building resume entry.

She deserves to be tried on her own apart from whatever Epstein was accused of. There are serious charges against her and it looks like the prosecution has a strong case. If convicted she'll be sentenced to decades in prison and will hopefully die there.

Didn't the Judge in the case get nominated to the circuit court of appeals last week?

Yeh ... play ball

They don't. I went to a top school got good grades... no job offers from big firms.

C- friends of mine got job offers from big firms.. had no idea why...

Until their parents showed up at graduation.

- one was a US Rep.
- one was a federal judge.
- one was CEO Of a major company...

EVERY SINGLE PERSON who has a good job or a prestigious job, you will find is someway "connected" but no one knows about it.

This trial is basically an attempt to take over control of the high level intl. prostitution ring...and nothing more.

The omicron variant pretty much bumped this out of the news cycle.


Probably on purpose. LOL

I don't believe it will be televised due to Maxwell being charged in US District Court, not state court. Longstanding federal rules prohibit video and still photography in these cases.

I don't claim to be an expert on this matter, but this has been my understanding of it.

The great unwashed...you and me...have not a clue on how the people of privilege live. For starters, they spend more money in a week or two than most of us earn in a lifetime. And most of it is written off against their tax bill, for which you and i foot the bill.

Epstein and Ghislaine had a slick thing going on. Entice people of power with nubile flesh. Then blackmail them into giving Epsten a few millions to "manage". Anyone who made a peep was threatened with exposure, and so they paid even more.

The question is, will there be anyone associated with the trial who isn't under threat of continuing blackmail? If there is, Maxwell may have a problem. If not, Maxwell will be "reformed" and sent off to enjoy her millions...or more.

Nah. I think that people know that if Ghislane was going to come out with any bombshells about famous people she would have already done that as part of a plea deal.

It's all so murky and long ago that nothing is going to come of it. A bunch of fat cat elites preyed upon underage no names on an exclusive sex island. It sounds like a badly written movie.
