There was like 1000 victims and currently the Trump admin wants to believe that literally only Epstein and Maxwell were raping them. Epstein was a school teacher who became a billionaire from very wealthy people giving him money as he became a pimp for them.

I feel you're skipping a lot of things here. Epstein didn't become a billionaire overnight (and possibly didn't at all). He joined Bear Stearns and was a protege of Alan Greenberg. He wasn't earning money as a pimp, most of it was just nepotism.

I could buy it was mostly Epstein and Maxwell with how much they've talked about Epstein's appetites.

When you say "his friends", most people are going to have a number of like 5-8. Yes, the wealthy elite typically do have expanded social networks primarily for networking, however without any specific number on "friends" I have trouble believing it was just him and his inner group, although there's nothing saying the nameless oligarchs who funded his career change who don't want it leaked out didn't become his "friends".

There's not much nameless about it. His career isn't a secret. again, there's a mythology to him I just don't understand. Nobody in Maxwll's trials were named more than just a few hedge fund guys. Even virginia Giufre just named guys like Prince Andrew and Alan Dershowitz

Brain Karem, long-time White House correspondent, filed a FOIA with others in the past and he said that yes it is literally binders of thousands of pages, there's like 10k (I believe) hours of footage from the FBI monitoring him. The thing about flight logs and the surveillance footage, however, is that Epstein was smart in that he didn't ONLY hang out with other pedophiles, so the tricky part would be figuring out who was and wasn't actually a part of the trafficking.

He wasn't that smart, tbh. He was sloppy and left out CSAM about. He got fired as at teacher for perving on students. And yeah, there's a ton of stuff from the FBI on him. I linked to a lot of it there. That's how they build a case.

But throughout all the interviews....almost none of the victims testified to anyone but Epstein and Maxwell abusing them. That's the convincing part for me.
