Why were so many people's names redacted when they were part of the problem with the Epstein files?

[frigidweirdo]

Why are these names redacted? People who were part of the problem are being protected.

I would suggest that these are the people who got great deals, instead of being locked up for life, they got maybe a minimal sentence (like Epstein did the first time around) or no prison time at all. These are the people who were partaking of the girls Epstein had. They're not victims. They need to be named.

Acosta, he doesn't care. He probably got paid well for this. He gave the deals to people who should have been tried and probably convicted with long prison sentences. He gave these deals. He resigned from Trump's first cabinet over this.

And lots of redacted names. I mean, come on this is the US government having a session and they don't want people to know who was interviewing this dude.

"Did you resign over the Epstein case?"
"I chose to resign because of concern that the Epstein case would distract from what I was doing as Secretary of Labor."

Trump on the other hand thinks that the matter should be closed and all the rich and powerful who were a part of this, should continue to be protected because... because... why?

A summary of why names are often redacted -

The redaction of names in the Epstein Files is a complex interplay of legal, ethical, and security considerations. Privacy laws, non-disclosure agreements, ongoing investigations, and protection of minors all contribute to why many names are withheld from public view.

 

[georgephillip]

Because of the internet, Epstein has revealed the complete amorality of many US and global elites to the vast majority of humanity, thereby undermining the moral architecture that anchors an ordered life.

When that happens, what holds a nation together?

The Slow Epstein Earthquake — The Rupture between the People and the Élites

"After ‘Epstein’, nothing can continue as before:

"Neither the post war ‘never again’ values -- reflecting sentiment at the end of bloody wars -- and the widespread yearning for a ‘fairer’ society; nor the bipolar economics of extreme disparities in wealth; nor trust -- after the exposed venality, rotted institutions and perversions that the Epstein files have shown to be endemic amongst certain of the western élites

"How to speak of ‘values’ against this background?"

Yeah, it's always been like this.

King Edward VII, son of Victoria, was massively into his sex. He was told that as long as the plebs didn't find out, it was okay.

Morals are for the poor. The rich can do whatever they like, apparently. As long as the plebs don't find out, there are "morals".

So what are "morals" then? People thought it was a code everyone should follow. Nope, just a way of keeping the masses down.

Legal = these people got sweetheart deals and we don't want to undermine the legal system by showing everyone that the legal system doesn't apply to the richest people

Ethical = these rich people have no ethics, but they don't want to get found out, so we need to redact them

Security considerations = these people's security is at threat if they go to prison.

 

[Godboy]

If the name wasnt redacted, would you be able to convict that person of a crime? No, there isnt evidence of a crime there. Is it illegal to get an email from Epstein? No, it isnt.

Someone has to fix Epsteins pipes when they break. Someone has to be his banker. This idea that every person he ever met was ******* kids with him, is preposterous. If the government links innocent people to Epsteins crimes, they will get their asses sued off, so of course they redact names.

So

1) If they redact the name, we could convict them, but won't

2) If they don't redact the name, we can't convict them

Oh, well, great. Either way the rich have decided their people can do whatever they want.

At least if the names are redacted we can ostracize these people.

 

[MarcATL]

Trump is protecting his fellow pedophiles OP.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

The unredacted files will be open to congress. They can choose whether to expose democrats or not,

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Why are these names redacted?

Because the Trump regime is also the problem.

Trump is a criminal and convicted felon, of course he’s protecting his fellow criminals.

I think you just need to be mature about this.

Yeah, and you think we'll see anything this year, while the pedo protecting Republicans are in charge?

The Epstein files will be a huge issue in November, vote for pedo protecting or for the Democrats.

 

[frigidweirdo]

I think you just need to be mature about this.

Yeah? You think Trump isn't using every and any excuse possible to redact things and keep certain files hidden?

Really? You think ignoring Trump's behavior is "mature"?

That is obviously the fiction that democrats are going for.
