Jeffrey Epstein’s brother lists the evidence he claims feds are covering up about pedophile’s death
Jeffrey Epstein’s brother lists the evidence he claims feds are covering up about pedophile’s death The New York Post headlines this of Jeffrey Epstein’s brother:  Jeffrey Epstein’s brother lists the evidence he claims feds are covering up about pedophile’s death The Post reports: “Despite being the most high-profile prisoner in the US, Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in federal custody at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York on August 10, 2019. The financier, awaiting trial on charges of sex-trafficking underage girls, was found in his cell just after 6:30 a.m., having apparently used a length of orange bedsheet tied to the cell’s bunk bed to hang himself. Throughout the previous night, cameras in the Secure Housing Unit where Epstein was being held weren’t recording, prison guards slept and Epstein was left without a cellmate despite prison psychologists’ direct orders. Then-Attorney General Bill Barr would later call the situation a perfect storm of screw-ups.’

Pizzagate, QAnon and the ‘Epstein List’: Why the Far Right Is Obsessed with Sex Trafficking
https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/01/09/why-maga-is-obsessed-with-jeffrey-epstein-00134394
Aday before the so-called Epstein list was supposed to drop, far-right conspiracy theorists buzzed with excitement over the expectation that it would crucify prominent figures on the left for their involvement in sex trafficking. It’s a wildly popular notion in that world, where Pizzagate and QAnon fantasies run rampant. The truth, of course, was far different: The material made public in federal court last week, with more now being released, wasn’t some kind of Jeffrey Epstein client list, as had been speculated online. It was actually documents from a court case filed by one of Epstein’s victims that did include people’s names, but provided little new information on whether they knew of or participated in Epstein’s heinous crimes. To get a sense of why conspiracy theories centered on sex trafficking and pedophilia — and now the “Epstein list” — are so buzzy in MAGA circles, POLITICO Magazine called up Mike Rothschild, author of The Storm Is Upon Us: How QAnon Became a Movement, Cult, and Conspiracy Theory of Everything and Jewish Space Lasers: The Rothschilds and 200 Years of Conspiracy Theories. Rothschild pointed to a toxic stew of age-old antisemitism; the worst incentives of today’s social media; and the right’s unending obsession with Bill and Hillary Clinton.

Jeffrey Epstein list: Harvey Weinstein and Sarah Ferguson named as more documents emerge
#Epstein
A newly released batch of documents has named even more people connected to disgraced paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, including Prince Andrew's ex-wife Sarah Ferguson. It's the fifth batch of documents to be released after a New York judge ruled that court documents could be unsealed relating to a lawsuit brought about by Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre against Ghislaine Maxwell - the late financier's former girlfriend. The latest round of documents were released just hours after a third and fourth were also made public on Friday. In this latest round, almost 100 more files were released, naming convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein, Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson and others. More documents are expected to be released in the coming days and weeks, giving a glimpse into the life of Epstein and his long-running campaign of abuse of young girls.
