I cannot understand how these grown men with all the power, money, and skills to rise to very high places in the world went down this path. They had no internal radar. If women were their thing, couldn't they find some adults?

They were toys, to be used and abused as wanted, then discarded like trash.

In my protected life, I cannot even dream up the horrors these girls were subjected to. I don't want to know. There are probably 100s of these children out there trafficked by this ring of .... well I don't even know what to call them because pedo seems far too nice.

These women still do not have any justice. So far Maxwell is the only one in jail. The woman. None of these men are being held accountable. All of them need to be outed and punished. Every person even remotely connected to it, including the adults who didn't participate but found out and simply cut off Epstein instead of blowing all the whistles.

As a society, as a human race, we have to do it. I know human trafficking is so much bigger than Epstein. This is one we know about. This is one we can do something about.
