What about the girls, pilot, cooks, maids, women who helped Epstein recruit victims?

They still have information. How safe are they?

Can't some of them still blackmail the powerful men involved? Those men will never be free from disclosure just because of Epstein's death, no matter how it occurred.

And, the beat goes on....

Where Are Jeffrey Epstein’s Alleged Accomplices Now?
When prosecutors gave Jeffrey Epstein a sweetheart plea deal in 2007, they agreed not to charge four women allegedly involved in recruiting dozens of underage girls for abuse.

10. I just heard on Morning Joy that Lisa Bloom can still proceed with getting compensation

for the victims and that the files can still be searched. That's good. I think Bloom would make public what she could, so the pressure is not off the rich and famous.

Thanks for the article.

6. Presumably, at least some of the blackmail materials

was confiscated from his safe. But there's still the question of his island, and I don't know if search warrants were ever obtained to go room by room through that, or his other properties.

Maybe his victims' attorneys will sue for access to the mountains of photographs, DVDs and stuff seized from his residence. I would if I were representing an Epstein victim.

order....

“While Epstein was at the head of the international sex trafficking organization, that conspiracy could not have functioned without many others playing their part,” attorney Paul Cassell, who represents multiple victims of Epstein, told The Daily Beast after Epstein’s arrest on Saturday. “Jane Doe 1 and 2 will continue to fight for all of Epstein’s co-conspirators to be held accountable in New York, Florida, and anywhere else they committed crimes.”

11. They may be able to go just so far, then be pulled back by Barr.

He seems to give full rein until he sees "they" are getting too close to the truth and then pulls back. A need for "frog march" comes to mind.

I wouldn't trust anything coming out of this administration, but I hope the FBI continues their investigation to the point of no return. We need a break and the truth would fill that need.
