Please show me the plain words, in the email thread which I have read in its entirety, where he says a 17 year old was consenting to being trafficked.
He has asserted in this thread:
* that sexual assault is too broad and vague a term; we should use narrower terms to more concretely describe actions, so as not to rise to mis-impressions (this is primary idea).
* that he thinks it is morally absurd to define rape based on location of occurrence.
* that he thinks it is morally absurd to define rape based on a 1 year age difference.
* that Minsky may not have been aware that Giuffre was being coerced (in his opinion, the most plausible scenario was that Minsky was not aware).
* that Giuffre herself did not, to his knowledge, level accusations at Minsky (she implicated him in a deposition against Epstein, but did not give details).
He has not (AFAICT) asserted in this thread:
* that Minsky did not commit a crime.
* that Minsky's actions were entirely moral.
* that Epstein's actions were neither criminal nor immoral.
* that a 17 year old was consenting to being trafficked.
