I think she was complacent or at least had no opinion of it until the case blew up. Did she ever tell him not to hang out with Epstein anymore and he refused? It's an easy narrative for her to give now, but I don't buy it.
I am disappointed in Bill. I am actually a beneficiary of their scholarship, for college. At the same time, I think this is Melinda playing the blame game.
- CPLX 5y ago> Did she ever tell him not to hang out with Epstein anymore and he refused? Apparently yes. Numerous media reports have said that he had promised not to engage with Epstein any more, and that the event that suddenly precipitated the divorce was a revelation in the New York Times that Bill had been breaking that promise.
- ksec 5y ago>Bill had been breaking that promise. Does that implies Melinda knew what Epstein was up to?
- spoondan 5y agoThere’s no need to speculate that Melinda had special knowledge. Epstein was convicted of procuring a child for prostitution in 2008 and was subsequently a registered sex offender. Bill admits to attending dinners with Epstein until 2011.
- ksec 5y agoSorry I wasn't aware of that. I thought it was a very recent thing.
- CPLX 5y agoBy the time under discussion Epstein had been convicted in a US court for a crime involving sex with an underage girl, and was a widely famous and notorious media figure.
- jansen555 5y agoWhat she didn't said explicitly is that "kiddie porn". She must have known something horrendous from her own investigations. For the sake of her children she didn't blow the issue past "being with Epstein". But eveyone I know hinted that "younger taste".
