I suspect because they, and/or lots of their friends, were embroiled in it.
A lot of democrats were seemingly involved. Not sure if a lot of Trump's friends.
Why does that seem like a good excuse to you?
Good excuse for what? Again, this is a supposed case of many underage girls caught up in a ring of sex and drugs. And many powerful people were potentially involved.
The real victims here are those girls. Seems to me that some eager beaver attorney should be jumping on this case looking to make big money here, the question is where are they?
If the government or people in the government were involved, I'm not sure I see the wisdom of expecting the government itself to crack the case wide open.
People see this as some big, important case; I see it as just one more of a million examples of injustice and why our legal process is broken and does not work at all---- much like our healthcare system, it exists now only to serve special interests----
The court system is there is milk money from people and make lawyers rich. Lawyers always get rich. Only enough victims get settlements enough to maintain the illusion that if you follow the law, you too will get justice when almost certainly, you'll just get fleeced, of both money and time.
Much like the healthcare system now only serves to make insurance companies rich, and secondarily, hospitals and doctors, there is no guarantee that any given patient actually receives the care they need.
In fact, insurance companies are wholly extraneous to healthcare. All that is really needed is the patient and the provider. All insurance companies have done is interject themselves into the process like Ticketmaster, then drive up costs greatly so they can bleed off all the profits for themselves.
