âIn a court memo filed on July 8, 2019, two days after his arrest, the Department of Justice outlined some of the evidence they had seized. This included stacks of compact disks labeled âYoung [Name] + [Name].â In short, Epstein kept a carefully curated library of videosâ

(2,941 posts)There, I corrected your statement.
Personally, I stopped caring about Epstein a long time ago and am only interested, once again, because President Shitstain is squawking so loudly about it. Sadly, it appears he has control of most of the Epstein stuff which means we won't ever see it.

(13,324 posts)youll see the info about the incriminating recordings, which were recovered by law enforcement personnel, not described by Ghislaine Maxwell as the OP indicates. Heres that link:

One would hope there are backups of those files somewhere that havent been destroyed. I assume anything the current administration can access has been destroyed or extensively altered. But it seems likely Epstein would have had backups beyond the copies in that safe, which Maxwell maybe knows how to find.
That would be her best life insurance policy, but this is all just conjecture, of course. I hope the truth will come out eventually, and especially that the victims will get some measure of justice.

I see no evidence of her saying that quote... but I'd DEFINITELY like to see if it does exist.

The Hill article has a few mentions of Ghislaine Maxwell, but many other links as well. Including links to federal court documents. So it would take the entire weekend to read all of these probably.

Thanks for the OP. Interesting stuff.

(57,143 posts)If Bill Kristol said it, it is not in the OP or the article or the BlueSky post. I clicked on all three.
Did you read the thread?
If you had you would know that I read the article because of a post I made excerpting from it.
if you read the thread you would know that several posters have the same reaction and results I did because they read the post and the article.
When you talk about people not reading, you wouldn't be referring to yourself.

(10,980 posts)While these items were only seized this weekend and are still being reviewed, some of the nude or partially-nude photographs appear to be of underage girls, including at least one girl who, according to her counsel, was underage at the time the relevant photographs were taken. Additionally, some of the photographs referenced herein were discovered in a locked safe, in which law enforcement officers also found compact discs with hand-written labels including the following: Young [Name] + [Name], Miscellaneous nudes 1, and Girl pics nude, The defendant, a registered sex offender, is not reformed, he is not chastened, he is not repentant; rather, he is a continuing danger to the community and an individual who faces devastating evidence supporting deeply serious charges.

This post should either be deleted or edited to include supporting documentation for the posts title, or otherwise the title needs to be changed so that it is factual and not spreading a conspiracy theory for which there is no documentation.

(1,079 posts)The article you posted doesn't even mention Maxwell's name, nor does it say anyone recorded Trump.
Might want to un-clickbait the post.

It does state that Epstein had stacks of CD recordings labeled Young [Name] + [Name].

(6,704 posts)It would be safe to assume he had tapes, LOTS of tapes, video and audio. Same as how Putin keeps people under control... cough cough like visiting US GOP politicians.

(470 posts)I have a feeling he knew early on that it would cause an uproar, so he decided to put it off (two more weeks!).
I think hell go with it anyways. He has no shame.
This is why this isnt a distraction. If dems cant take advantage of this scandal, and its well beyond that, its time to completely clean house. Fuck incumbency.
I dont care whos implicated. Im sick of all this secrecy and unfortunately we didnt get the info earlier and instead we now have this completely untrustworthy administration, where SOP is lying.

AntiFascist
(13,528 posts)Keep in mind that she was a British socialite. In a 2023 interview she now denies the evidence that she and Epstein were photographed with Prince Andrew, claiming the photo was faked, and an FBI investigation into Prince Andrew has now been dropped.
When Alex Acosta claimed that he was told to drop his case against Epstein because Epstein was "intelligence" and "above his paygrade" it probably had a lot to do with protecting the British Royal family, as well as other high-level figures. Maxwell's father, Robert Maxwell, had been a member of UK Parliament representing Buckinghamshire in 1964 and later headed a publishing empire. This likely gave Ghislaine access to her aristocratic connections and, perhaps, Epstein access to Robert Maxwell's shady intelligence connections.
Having said that, Maxwell's family is doing everything possible to have her released and perhaps pardoned by Trump.

46. Protection Of Identity Of Child Witnesses And Victims
Under 18 U.S.C. § 3509, the term "child" means a person who is under the age of eighteen who is or is alleged to be a victim of a crime of physical abuse, sexual abuse, or exploitation; or a witness to a crime committed against another person.
Section 3509(d) requires that all government employees connected with "a criminal proceeding," all court personnel, the defendant and all employees of the defendant, and all members of the jury:
keep all documents that disclose the name or any other information concerning a child in a secure place to which no person who does not have reason to know their contents has access; and
disclose documents described (in the statute) or the information in them that concerns a child only to persons who, by reason of their participation in the proceeding, have reason to know such information.
Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 403, a knowing or intentional violation of the privacy protection accorded by Section 3509 is a criminal contempt punishable by a fine and up to one year's imprisonment.
