Why do you use biased language? Yes,there were lots of people in the media that dealt with Epstein. Epstein's arrest was public in what 2008 or 2009, you could find information about it on wikipedia in 2015. Now there have been multiple documentaries about it. That's why Gates acting all dumb about it years later is dumb.

The conspiracy theorists that point at everything as child abuse weren't right just because they found one of the most public instances of it. It doesn't make their other dozens of claims true.

Epstein and his connections, and everyone involved, should have been the biggest story of the century, given how high up his influence reached. But it wasn't, and that should tell you all you need to know.
> given how high up his influence reached

This thread is filled with people stating conspiracies as fact (without a hint of irony). We have no idea what his "influence" was, it's all speculation and conjecture. Yet that unknown is somehow proof it's all real ?

Could you explain why? I'm not arguing just wanting to hear your perspective.

I know a bit about the story, but from my limited knowledge it seems like a Pedophile had a lot of powerful connections. Which seems roughly on par with Michael Jackson. A BIG story, but not biggest story of the century.
