Epstein did not do his time. He did not go through any reformation process. People were willing to take his money and his professional connections even knowing his recent conviction for which his time was upcoming.
This isn't a case where someone is reformed and people aren't forgiving them. Epstein was not reformed, did not serve his time, and people were still actively engaging with him. Those people were not engaging with a reformed man. They were engaging with a predator.
I entirely agree with you that reformed felons deserve a chance after they serve their time. Epstein was not reformed and he did not serve time, therefore what chance did he deserve on account of these people?
- toomuchtodo 7y agoAren’t we debating how to determine if someone is reformed? I thought we were, and if not by judicial process (prison sentencing), what? I absolutely agree Epstein wasn’t reformed, and that the challenge is to suss out who is and isn’t a danger to society any longer (“reformed”). I don’t know how to do that besides gut feeling and guardrails to minimize blast radius when poor judgement has occurred.
