    Whats (almost) funny is that most of these emails show up twice, from the sender and again from the receiver, but they always censored the sender so we might be able to find the other version with the name intact.

    Also, they failed to censor the names of the victims, as illustrated in the newest CoffeeZilla video.

    It should be made known to the administration, that any time a redaction like this occurs, the public should and does imagine the sender to be Donald Trumpedo.

    The redacting is in order to protect the victims… It seems like clear evidence on what side the government has taken

    Funny how Apple won’t allow movies to show villains using their products, but will happily add “sent from my iPhone” to pedo mail.

      That’s actually a marketing tactic to promote their devices. Actually the scummiesy tactic ever because it takes no effort but caused a lot of anti consumerist practices since this was the first time consumers were pushed with enshittification.

      Everything points to this - very clearly, in fact, even though millions of documents have been redacted or withheld entirely for the very same reason, which is also a flagrant violation of the law.

      The question that has been asked here, however, is how anyone can be okay with this. You answer the question of why a criminal regime in a corrupt system that not only allows these crimes but makes them possible in the first place protects one of the perpetrators, one of their own depraved gang.

      Your answer raises the same initial question: How can anyone accept that serious criminals, including numerous child molesters, have been getting away with the most heinous crimes with impunity for decades? How can anyone come to terms with the fact that their own law enforcement agencies are so corrupt that they do not fight organized crime, but are actually used to facilitate it? How can anyone be okay with that?

      They’ve decided they are either protecting the offender or lying about being them.

      Best to assume it’s all of them until proven otherwise.

    There is one challenge here, emails are really easily spoofable. They should release all the header information of these emails, so that they could be verified. FBI probably have them, but they won’t release those because they would show that Don is a pedo.

      Well, the only one you have to spoof to incriminate is already redacted, so there’s not really a ‘spoof’ concern to worry about unless that is unredacted.

      Receiving such an email doesn’t have to be a spoof. See typical spam folder of anyone for all sorts of crazy implications about the recipient.

      However, the date is more reliable and back in 2014, nearly no one would be motivated to fake that sort of email toward Epstein. That was before his whole situation was popularly known. The people aware of it were largely in on it that early on.

        Epstein was first arrested 2006 and convicted on 2008, anyone association with him after that KNEW him being a sex offender.

          The key word being those that knew him. He wasn’t famous for things so strangers wouldn’t have done that, and I think if this were a fake email, then sending it to a high profile person would be more of a stranger activity than an associate.

          I don’t think an Epstein associate would send a fake email like that, as it would be more likely to blow back on them than implicate Epstein any further than he was already implicated.

          So yeah, this email seems a credible thing and consistent with Epstein. Also I would not suspect a fake header if we knew the sender, so I’d think the sender could be presumed not to be a victim of spoofed headers too.

            He wasn’t famous for things so strangers wouldn’t have done that

            He was famous for throwing raunchy sex parties with underaged European models.

            That was his entire roll in his social network.

            It’s like showing up in the black book of the DC Madam Deborah Jeane Palfrey and saying “I didn’t know she was a pimp”. That’s literally the only reason you would associate with the person.

            Norm fucking Finklestein responds to Epstein on his perversion to his face, ffs.

              I’m not saying that his activities were completely unknown, just that some internet rando wouldn’t even recognize his name back then. I think that a faked email could only be a likely scenario if we were talking about after everyone knew who he was and what he did.

              So the ‘oh watch out, that 2014 Epstein email might have been faked/forged’ is a relatively small likelihood to bother assuming, and totally beside the point since they censored the ‘from’ in that email and the message didn’t indicate previously unknown behavior on Epstein’s part.

      Do you need to? I think it’s safe to assume all of your billionaires, politicians, role models, famous people, like all of your pantheon, either sent such email, or wanted to send it but wasn’t invited, or knew of it but kept quiet, which is not a tiny bit better.

    When they said they’re redacting the files to protect the victims, its pedo talk, they believe the pedo’s have a sickness and its the girls taking advantage of them, not the other way around.

      In this case there is no excuse to be saying that the victims are taking advantage of them. This is a system which is designed on abuse of women, teenagers, children and possibly even babies - A whole island designed for this, for rich oligarchs.

      Also the story about illnesses doesn’t hold up in the majority of cases as attraction to teenagers is excluded in DSM-5. Of course, there is also evidence of actual children taking part; but even so, it is a meticulously designed system where it was only them doing the abusing.

      Also the redactions are done extremely poorly: Clear photos are being referenced of the victims without their informed consent - yet the abusers names are censored.

      They somehow failed to properly censor the nude photos of victims in the files (i.e they redacted them but fucked it up like with first set of files) but DID properly redact the email addresses of several key repeat visitors, one of them thought to be Benjamin Netanyahu.

      No they don’t. They believe they have every right to do what they did and still do. They’re not being respectful from a dubious moral standpoint. They’re fucking lying to protect themselves.

    That would cause them to face legal consequences and that would make them a victim of the legal system and the WOKE cancel culture! And they can’t reveal the identity of the victim!
