You're ignoring the multitude of suspicious circumstances around his death, and the fact that we know of at least one moneyed elite (prince Andrew) who did in fact to share in his illegal indulgences in the presence of / with the facilitation of Epstein. We also know for example that Melinda Gates decided to divorce Bill Gates after 27 years explicitly because of his ties to Epstein - obviously that's not legally usable evidence, but it should count for something when calculating your priors.
- tootie 4y agoEpstein was a predator and he definitely shared his hobby with Prince Andrew at least once. He very likely shared it with at least some other people, who were likely rich or powerful in some regard. That's the farthest we can extrapolate based on reliable evidence. The notion that keeps floating around that he had entrapped the entire ruling class of the world and had detailed records of their crimes that he wielded over their heads to collect favors is highly improbable. The further notion that the known existence of all that compromising evidence was the impetus for jailhouse assassination with the explicit involvement of the Attorney General on down to the guards leaving nary a trace of evidence whilst simultaneously letting Ghislaine Maxwell walk free and clear is just absurd. Bill Gates should not have spent time with him but there's no way he needed anyone's help to get laid. Melinda didn't like that they were associated, but she divorced him because he kept having affairs with adult women that worked for him.
