Instead of demanding 'justice' on the guy who put Epstein in jail, why don't Democrats and Snowflakes demand justice of their 'hero', Slick Willy, who was flying 26 times in 2 years on Epsyein's private plane and screwing little girls on Epstein's private 'Pedophile Island'?
Embrace the power of AND.
Who are the State Prosecutors that wanted zero time?
Why did Cyrus Vance get his Level one Sex Offender Status (most dangerous) reduced to Level 3 (least dangerous)?
Who is this Judge that signed off on the deal that left a serial rapist out to continue raping young girls?
As for Acosta, his story is not believable to me.
He claims it was a roll of the dice that Epstein would be convicted. But given the number of underage victims involved, this story had national outrage written all over it even back then. Acosta made a deal on their behalf and, in violation of the law, didn’t even tell them about it. The longer this case remained unresolved, the more certain conviction would be as more victims came forward and told their story. These crimes call for a life sentence. Recently a guy was sentenced to 7 years or transporting ONE underaged girl over ONE state line, ONE time, for sexual purposes.
Epstein had 60 victims, as of then, crossing multiple state lines, multiple time and he gets 56 Saturday nights in jail? Acosta, and many others, look like they were part of a coverup that allowed a serial rapist of young teenage girls to continue his rape and likely blackmailing career.
Acosta let Epstein plead guilty to a couple of prostitution charges as if the Middle School and High School age girls he was raping were nothing more than hookers. Epstein got off the hook as well as all of his co-conspirators who might have flipped on him if real pressure had ever been applied.
...none of which proves the deal was NOT made in part to spare SENATOR Clinton and her disgraced Impeached perv ex-President husband from a very nasty public trial exposing Slick Willy's flights on the 'Pedo Plane' and his screwing kids...

While Trump transition team was vetting Acosta, he'd cut Epstein a non-prosecution plea deal back in 2007 that put a hard stop to a separate federal investigation of sex crimes with minors and trafficking.
“Is the Epstein case going to cause a problem [for confirmation hearings]?” Acosta had been asked. Acosta had explained, breezily, apparently, that back in the day he’d had just one meeting on the Epstein case. He’d cut the non-prosecution deal with one of Epstein’s attorneys because he had “been told” to back off, that Epstein was above his pay grade. “I was told Epstein ‘belonged to intelligence’ and to leave it alone,” he told his interviewers in the Trump transition, who evidently thought that was a sufficient answer and went ahead and hired Acosta.
That sounds like bullshit concocted by Acosta to explain away his horrid sweetheart plea deal for Epstein and preserve his chances of becoming Trump’s pick at Labor.
Despite Epstein’s own fame as a wealthy investor, no one seems to know exactly how he made his money. Apart from one person, his client list has been a secret for decades. How he insinuated himself into the company of the likes of Bill Clinton remains unclear.
He may have made his $millions through extortion.
And in a 2015 court filing, Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre stated that U.S. authorities were in possession of footage of her having sex with members of Epstein’s elite friend group.
“Based on my knowledge of Epstein and his organization, as well as discussions with the FBI, it is my belief that federal prosecutors likely possess videotapes and photographic images of me as an underage girl having sex with Epstein and some of his powerful friends,”
Giuffre claimed that
Epstein “debriefed her” after she was forced into sexual encounters so that he could possess “intimate and potentially embarrassing information” to blackmail friends into parking their money with him.
