    There have been a number of publicized human trafficking arrests in the past year or two. Not just the isolated rescue, but large rings being broken up. Always wondered if she was cooperating behind the scenes to facilitate some of that.

    That might be true. She could have quietly and secretly provided testimony. In that case she might yet get a reduced sentence.

    She's 60. No matter how many beans she spills, she's not seeing the light of day again. Even if all five convictions run concurrently, the most serious carries a 40-year max, and no judge should be compassionate enough to give her much leniency based on the long-term harm she did to multiple victims.

    I hope the first one she gives up is Alan "IKePtMyUnDiEsOn" Douchewitz.

    Which explains this. Of course, a U.S. network would have kept him on.

    HanSenSE:

    I gave up on cable news last summer, but before that was mildly addicted to MSNBC for years. I never saw Dersh on any of the shows.

    Ari Melber has tried to get all of the clown brigade to come on.

    A lot of this presumes Epstein is dead. I do not.

    I really would pay $500 to know the true story of how Epstein got to be so powerful and rich. I assume it’s just blackmail (his claims of financial genius are BS) but I wonder if there was some government assisting him or feeding him information.

    He had to be an intelligence asset. There’s simply no other way to explain it. Especially given Robert Maxwell being Ghyslaine’s dad. I, too, would love to know all the details of what went on.

    Wasn’t it floated that he was tied in with Israeli intelligence? I always wondered if he was running a Ponzi scheme, though I suppose that would’ve come out by now.

    He's hanging out with Ken Lay.
