I hope they’re all sweating, not only Andrew and Dershowitz and Biff. Even if they weren’t active participants themselves, they all knew about Epstein’s predatory proclivities and laughed them off because, hey, rich white guy who gives us or our charities money and plane rides.

Let’s hope she matches crimes to those names … before she’s Epsteined.

No doubt QAnoners will excuse You Know Who’s presence on that plane as ‘Doing Reseach’ on the ‘Deep State’, so he would know who to go after when he became POTUS, years down the road.
The rest of his worshippers will just ignore the news, as per usual.
EDIT: tyop

Its going to be more embarrassment and issue for civil suits than anything related to criminal charges.
Solicitation of Prostitution has a short statute of limitations as does Statutory Rape in many states. If forcible rape is involved, then the time limits are much longer.

This will be really bad for Prince Andrew and Trump, since they have pending civil suits against them related to their connections with Epstein.

The default reaction will be a long string of “But…but…but…Clinton!” while totally ignoring the rest of the list.

They will pivot instantly to very selective victim blaming and denial, while insisting that any democrats implicated proves Q-anon is real. Believing in the Deep State allows for magical thinking.

I do wonder how many Trump allies are supporting his return to office because if she talks, they’ll be in the market for a pardon.

I have low expectations for this. The feds had a lot of opportunity to discover the evidence they needed, and here we are today hoping to squeeze something useful out of the second in command. With all the backroom dealings which went into protecting Epstein (and later ensuring his death), the odds of there being a mountain of evidence still waiting for Maxwell to lead the Feds to it are super low.

Highly doubt that the list will be released. Heidi Fleiss’ red book and the Washington DC madam’s books were never released either. There are just too many powerful people on there that will do almost anything to block the release, and I doubt that one judge can have more power over that group.

Part of the reason for trafficking charges with this. No statute of limitations.

Child porn laws too, no limit. From what I understand they seized a lot of computers from Epstein and some from Maxwell. Apparently Epstein’s were loaded to the gills with child porn.

Does he? I thought that was dropped.

I think Trump is just dealing with defamation suits related to accusations unconnected to Epstein.

And we can only hope that the DoJ takes a gotta’ catch 'em all approach to them.
