From when Epstein was alive:
Giuliani warns Epstein case could 'implicate a lot of people'
Tess Bonn
The Hill, July 22:
Rudy Giuliani, a personal attorney for President Trump, warned Monday that a renewed investigation into registered sex offender Jeffrey Epstein could potentially implicate many more prominent individuals.
Epstein was indicted earlier this month on sex trafficking charges. The U.S. Attorney's Office in Manhattan alleged that the billionaire financier abused dozens of minors from 2002 to 2005 by creating a network and operation enabling him to sexually exploit and abuse dozens of underage girls.
Epstein has denied any wrongdoing and he has since been ordered to remain in detention until his hearing after he was deemed a flight risk.
Its obviously going to implicate a lot of people I cant tell you who but its not going to end up with just Jeffrey Epstein, Giuliani told Hill.TV during an interview on Rising.

If you spent this much time with him and he was so involved with these underaged girls who did you see him with and what was he doing and what did he tell you and what did he say to you and how could you have missed it, he told Hill.TV. Maybe some were innocent maybe some werent, but I think theyre going to investigate everybody.

Now that Epstein is deceased:
"I don't understand how anyone can explain not having him under 24-hour surveillance or not checking the camera constantly... The camera wasn't working. There's a camera in every part of a prison. Every single telephone call in and out of prison is listened to. Prisons are prisons. Now the federal prison system, I used to be in charge of it in the Reagan administration and then I worked with it for 15 years... The federal prison system is the best in the world... It's hard for me to believe this could possibly happen."

(14,789 posts)From Rolling Stone:
In addition to Alan Dershowitz, attorney Kenneth Starr yes, that Ken Starr also defended Epstein in 2007 and reportedly played a significant part in helping to secure his plea agreement, according to Dershowitz. Also according to Dershowitz, the lawyer who investigated the Monica Lewinsky scandal was recruited to help Epstein because Starr had experience in investigating sex investigations. He had experience as the solicitor general and as a judge. He had all the bases covered, he told the Daily Beast in 2015. Along with Dershowitz, Starr was also listed as a recipient of emails from Florida prosecutors discussing withholding the terms of the plea agreement from Epsteins alleged victims.
