Obviously many highly effective males made use of the “billionaire pedophile’s” companies, exploiting younger girls and even underage ladies for intercourse.

Report: Epstein Blackmailed Bill Gates Over Affair With VERY Young Russian Woman
And the primary identify? According to ABC News, John Doe 36 will probably be revealed as none aside from Bill (*50*). The former president is talked about in additional than 50 of the redacted paperwork, per the information outlet. Wow. Gross!
Most of the mentions of (*50*) have been apparently by Virginia Giuffre, the Epstein sufferer who got here ahead years in the past with claims about Prince Andrew. She not too long ago settled her multimillion greenback lawsuit in opposition to the royal, however in these early days, again in 2015, she apparently was attempting to depose (*50*) as nicely, and that’s the place a lot of the mentions come from, per ABC. Giuffre was reportedly attempting to get (*50*) to speak about Epstein on document. The paperwork don’t accuse (*50*) of any particular crimes.
Of course, (*50*) and Epstein’s affiliation is all too well-known at this level. The billionaire reportedly visited the White House over a dozen occasions throughout his presidency, and later (*50*) even rode on the “Lolita Express” — Epstein’s notorious personal jet. (*50*) instructed NY Magazine of Epstein in 2002:

If it’s proven he knew any extra — or particularly if he took half — it might be an infinite black mark not simply on the person however on the US as a rustic. However, simply as we’ve argued many occasions about Donald Trump‘s criminal prosecution, it’s a needed measure for our democracy. Any associations to Epstein should be investigated, and any crimes dedicated should be prosecuted. No matter who these males are, titans of trade or leaders of the free world.

We’ll must see which different males are among the many practically 200 John Does within the paperwork. Again, irrespective of who they’re, it’s nicely previous time they’re unmasked. All of this needs to be out within the public eye, and everybody related must be investigated.
At the very least, we’re going to have a tough time trusting any of those guys ever once more. Though within the case of (*50*) and Trump, who’ve each been accused of sexual misconduct a number of occasions aside from their Epstein associations, that’s not essentially a giant change…
