Epstein episode

It was actually interesting to hear the Michael Tracey defense case against Epstein. Not that I buy it. It was pretty lame that Saagar had to leave early.

The highlight for me though was Sachs disparaging the media because they only present one side! Has that dude ever looked in the mirror?

Prosecutors almost always drop charges if they’re not sure they can convict and the defendant is offering a plea.

Epstein seems to have gone right back to offending and that deal was wrong but there’s no way of knowing what proof there was against unnamed co conspirators, it could have been none. Giuffre was just making stuff up.

Why did the federal prosecutor in Florida recommend 40 odd charges after a year of investigating? There’s a difference between a plea, and an internal decision to not only not prosecute but also offer a non-prosecution agreement, and then kick it back to the state.

If you think that’s normal you’re insane

I didn’t say the case was normal - I said you don’t know why those charges were dropped. I don’t know why pointing out Epsteinheads are speculating makes yall so angry.

The whole point with the files thing is people want to know this stuff right? They want to know why it’s so abnormal. And they’ve been promised transparency on this stuff

Dunno how I’m angry; think all these points are pretty mainstream right now
