Twenty years after Jeffrey Epstein was exposed for his child sex abuse enterprise, the Justice Department this week made a startling revelation. Rather than the “dozens” of victims previously alleged by the government and media, Justice now says that there were “over one thousand” victims.

    Justice says it reviewed “more than 300 gigabytes of data and physical evidence,” including “over ten thousand downloaded videos and images of illegal child sex abuse material.”

    I refuse to believe that 300GB of material yielded no additional suspects.

      Would he even arrive in hell? To my knowledge, God (at least of the old testament) never really condemned sexual assault/rape or hurting children (the latter is even encouraged - “spare the rod, spoil the child”, the binding of Isaac, etc.). A rapist could marry his victim as a “punishment” (as long as she’s single, otherwise if she was another man’s property, both her and the rapist should die)

        Depending on the flavor of abrahamic religions, all you need to do is either believe in God or believe and do works by God. So sin isn’t so much what sends people to hell, or everyone would be there. I would doubt the actions of someone like Epstein, despite populist opinions on religion, are actions rooted in a religious person.

      And everyone who helped cover up his crimes and those of his accomplices.

      Or better yet, we could punish them in real life instead of engaging in fantasy.

        Kissinger is probably four degrees of separation from Epstein at the most and that’s assuming Epstein had a handler
