The Virgin Islands locals referred to it as "pedophile island." By all accounts Epstein was constantly in the company of girls of dubiously legal age. I could believe someone might go out to the island initially unaware of what was up. I don't believe they could maintain a long association with him (as Nowak did) without knowing or, more likely, participating in the abuse ring.
- duxup 6y agoThe timing seems like like he would likely have known about the accusations I agree. Having said that, I gotta think Epstein (or really anyone up to this stuff) was pretty good about feeling out who he could victimize and who he could rope into his things ... and who he couldn't / it would be risky to do so. That probably means not revealing too much to folks he could use for his own purposes... but would want to avoid involving in the really dark stuff. I gotta think folks who are up to this kind of thing at scale are reasonably good at sidestepping potential land mines / folks who might not be down with the darker things he was up to. Thus I get a little skeptical about the idea that anyone associated had to have known all the details.
