I agree justice for survivors should be the top priority. But justice can only happen if there is some punishment handed out. Everybody who can be proven to have participated in Epstein's illegal activities needs to be held accountable for their crimes, as does the DOJ and anybody else in this administration who participated in the cover up to protect those criminals.
