- jessaustin 7y agoThis is part of the problem; at that time Epstein hadn't "paid for" his crimes in any meaningful sense.

- devinjflick 7y agoI'd argue he didn't pay his debt to society and was not rehabilitated. His previous sentence and it's execution were a complete joke. It's well documented that he continued to keep incredibly young companions and surrounded himself with plenty of "art" of scantily clad very young women. Even if both of those had been appropriate, his sentence fair and he was making obvious efforts to avoid past behavior, you couldn't be sure that you weren't taking money that was generated from the trafficking of other human beings. That's where Ito fucked up, plain and simple. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Epstein#Conviction_and_sentencing_(2008%E2%80%932011) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Epstein#Conviction_and...
