60-year-old Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison for helping Jeffrey Epstein, a s-x offender financier, s-xually abuse teenage girls. She faced conviction back in December for trying to recruit and groom at least four girls to have scandalous s-x-based encounters with Jeffrey Epstein between the years of 1994 and 2004, when Maxwell was reportedly dating Epstein.
Reuters stated that “the monthlong trial was widely seen as the reckoning that Epstein – who killed himself in a Manhattan jail cell in 2019 at age 66 while awaiting his own s-x trafficking trial – never had. It was one of the highest-profile cases in the wake of the #MeToo movement, which encouraged women to speak out about s-xual abuse, often at the hands of wealthy and powerful people.”
Meanwhile, people on social media are crying out for the alleged “CLIENT LIST” of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
At least one independent reporter claims to have some information and did a long Twitter thread on it before Maxwell was sentenced. Even Elon Musk has chimed in asking if anyone will go down for their alleged crimes.
Elon Musk wanted to know why the leaking Department of Justice hasn’t accidentally leaked information about Jeffrey Epstein’s clients after Ghislaine Maxwell was on trial and found guilty. Musk asked about it on Twitter, and now there’s a journalist who started talking.
Elon Musk asked: “Only thing more remarkable than DOJ not leaking the list is that no one in the media cares. Doesn’t that seem odd?” Musk included a funny meme picture with the post.
Sometimes I think my list of enemies is too short, so …

The journalist, known as Adam Davidson, said the following in a thread of tweets:

I wrote something provocative about how I know stuff about Jeffrey Epstein and can’t publish it.
I’ll do my best to explain and reveal here. It provides, I think, a good lesson in why it is hard to publish stories about bad things done by the rich and powerful:
1/
First: Just about everything I know has been published somewhere. It’s in books or articles or interviews with victims or revealed in depositions.
And, I think, our podcast, Broken, adamd.cc/broken went further than many in revealing scumbaggery.
2/
But, yes, there are things I believe, with good evidence, to be true that I feel I cannot publish.
These fall into a few categories:
Category 1: Protecting the victims.
We spoke to dozens of Epstein’s victims and dozens of their lawyers.
3/
Many are, simply, terrified and don’t want to talk at all.
Others are willing to talk off the record and will confirm things others said, but beg us not to reveal their names/info.
Others are represented by lawyers who want to win settlements and don’t let them all.
4/
We chose to respect any victim’s decision.
We had to rely on the very few victims who were willing to talk publicly. This is why @VRSVirginia is so brave. Pretty much every thing she told us was confirmed by others, off the record. But she is rare in being public.
5/
The biggest issue is the victims we never spoke with.
Epstein reportedly raped up to 3 girls a day for years. Most came once or just a few times. Their names are not known by anyone.
That’s thousands of victims who are invisible.
6/
7/
We covered one of those enablers, Adam Perry Lang, quite well, I thought: he was Epstein’s chef for years and has become a Hollywood celeb chef, best friend of Jimmy Kimmel.
A few of these enablers would confirm details off the record.
8/
Then there is a huge group of people–those who witnessed Epstein and fancy functions. They saw him with teenagers at scientific conferences or sitting on his knee at dinner parties.
There are countless people like this.
A few did talk to us–totally off the record.
9/
lastly, there are the people who (allegedly!) either had s-x with children or were around when others were doing so.
They are all rich and powerful and simply deny and refer to their lawyers often with clear insistence that they will sue.
10/
The result of all of this is that for most of the claims, there is one witness willing to go on record. That witness, more often than not, is @VRSVirginia
I have full confidence in her recollections. We spent ~two years checking every thing she said and never found a lie.
11/
But courts and the public are not kind to single-source he-said/she-said cases.
Virginia has already faced down and won against some very powerful people.
But this is an absurd amount of weight to put on one person’s shoulders.
12/
So, I am not protecting the men who (I feel fairly confident) raped children or watched as others did so. F*ck those guys.
I am honoring their victims’ requests.
Like all of you, I have hoped it would all come out by now. I’m shocked it hasn’t.
13/
But here is what I feel confident in saying:
If someone spent any amount of time with Jeffrey Epstein, at a minimum they saw him physically touching girls in provocative ways and rather gleefully showing off his ability to do so.
14/
15/
So, ALL the people who spent real time with Epstein were–at best!–witnesses to the almost certain rape of children.
And had a high likelihood that they engaged in illegal s-x acts.
Courts can presume innocence.
We all should presume guilt.
16/
Donald Trump, Bills Clinton, Gates, and Richardson. Ehud Barak. George Mitchell. George Church, Ito–and a lot of others at MIT and Harvard.
There is an enormous likelihood that — at the very best — they spent a lot of time with a man they knew to be raping children.
17/
They saw him with those children. They saw naked photos on his walls and many saw naked children around his pool.
They knew. Yes, of course, many participated. But ALL knew.
I am not able to say the names of people I think participated without betraying victims.
18/
But these men should not be invited into polite society.
They should not be celebrated on TV shows as experts on Covid or international relations or whatever.
19/end
