What is reality? We don’t know.
When Epstein house was raided, they found DVDs in a safe with labels saying “ with ”. Curious. We have no idea how he acquired his wealth. Curious. We know he kept company with very powerful people and any number of rapists and pedophiles and was always trying to get elites to come to his island. Curious. Blackmail seems like a logical conclusion, but I’ll certainly admit it is just a theory at this point.
Do you have a cite for that?
Look, that he has blackmail as a plan I absolutely believe. The two things I questioned in your post was that the visitors all thought the girls were adults, and that this has anything to do with “Deep State” or “Israel” for heaven’s sake. If some nefarious entity were behind it (as you are accusing Israel, which is disgusting, and making up the existence of the “Deep State”), they’d have the DVD’s, not Epstein.
He also had an expired Saudi Arabian passport, issued by Austria (?), I think from the 80’s, and he’s tried to explain it as protection for himself in case he was highjacked while traveling (in his private plane?), because he’s Jewish. They man is sketchier than anything. Why even keep it, and keep it in a safe, if it had expired?
Here’s a source @“Cardinal Fang” - https://nypost.com/2019/07/08/feds-found-vast-trove-of-nude-photos-in-jeffrey-epsteins-safe/
I read “Young [Name1] + [Name2]” as being pictures of young Name1 and also pictures of Name2. But what do I know? We’ll find out more when he goes to trial.
Because, as we all know, the New York Post is the gold standard in American journalism. :grin:
In this case the Post is quoting from legal documents: https://www.scribd.com/document/416202341/Epstein-Detention-Memo-7-8-19-US-Bail-Memo-Epstein
I think it was an Austrian passport that listed a Saudi address as the permanent address? That’s how I understood it.
Yes, Austrian passport with a domicile address in Saudi Arabia. What better way to show his non-Jewish bonafides than being an Austrian citizen living in KSA? :neutral:
Oh, I know. But the Post just makes it so easy to pick on them. 
I’m just waiting with baited breath to read about Cindy Adams’ past encounters with Epstein in her column.
NBC had a piece on the news tonight. They have located the best evidence - the Disgruntled Former Employee. All will be spilling their guts soon.

Oh my.
New development with possible suicide attempt or assault:

I hope he makes a full recovery so he can go to trial and face the music.
I am such a cynic, I don’t think he really wanted to die. Could this be an attempt to get less harsh conditions in a mental hospital, or setting up for an insanity defense, or a possible escape attempt while being transferred to a hospital? Or even an attempt to influence future jurors, to show his remorse.
Can you tell I don’t trust this creep? He will try anything to better his situation.
Whatever happened they have to watch him now. If it was a contrived suicide attempt, well, he’s just gotten himself 24 hour surveillance.
@powercropper , that was my immediate reaction!
I am a cynic, too, when it comes to this creep. Unless someone else tried to do him in, it was very likely what he tried to accomplish to weasel out of the jail.
We don’t know whether he was attacked by another prisoner, always a risk for child molesters, or whether he did this to himself. Either way, he’s scum but he needs to be kept safe in prison.
He needs to be kept safe so that (a) he can be tried and hopefully convicted/sentenced and (b) he can name names.
I agree, but he also should be kept safe because we should treat prisoners correctly.
