The Government Published Dozens of Nude Photos in the Epstein Files

Source: NYT

The Justice Department published dozens of unredacted nude images on its website, showing young women or possibly teenagers whose photos were contained in files related to the wealthy sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

But in the process of reviewing more than three million pages uploaded to the Justice Department’s website on Friday, The New York Times came across nearly 40 unredacted images that appeared to be part of a personal photo collection, showing both nude bodies and the faces of the people portrayed.

The people in the photos appeared to be young, although it was unclear whether they were minors. Some of the images seemed to show Mr. Epstein’s private island, including a beach. Others were taken in bedrooms and other private spaces.

Officials have largely removed or redacted the images that The Times flagged for them. The images appeared to show at least seven different people, although The Times did not seek to identify them.

JFC.

So, it sounds like NONE of these things may be true:
1) The women SAID IT'S OKAY, AND
2) they were adults for SURE, AND
3) their faces (and bits) were totally covered, AND
4) they're 100% certain the women were ONLY in photos and not abused otherwise

These assholes putting the files out apparently don't know ANY of those things about the pics, NOR did they cover the faces?

You gotta be ******* kidding me right now.

in the investigations. Almost everything has been about protecting the men involved, so the victims are victimized over and over again. This is probably the reason Epstein got away with so much for so long - the victims are inconsequential.
