Epstein could have been stopped in 2008
The Real Epstein Files: Bombshell evidence in the Epstein Files shows it was two Democratic Party Florida prosecutors who refused to prosecute sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein for his original charges involving a massive number of sexual abuse cases of young girls in Florida.
Because of the actions of two Democratic Party prosecutors in Florida, both of whom are long time donors to Congressional Democrats, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party, Jeffrey Epstein escaped with a slap on the wrist in 2008. This allowed Epstein to spread his sex trafficking network to Orgy Island, his New Mexico ranch, his Manhattan mansion and around the globe.
The records in the Epstein Files contain nearly 200 pages, including the testimony of two young girls who were molested by Epstein. Epstein abused hundreds of underage girls at his Palm Beach mansion between 1996 and 2008. Epstein managed to escape serious charges, in part because the Democrat Palm Beach prosecutor at the time, Barry Krischer, elected to charge him with minor prostitution and solicitation rather than bringing a felony sexual assault case.
Both Krischer and the lead prosecutor in the case, Democrat Lanna Belohlavek, told Palm Beach police that they didn't intend to prosecute Epstein because they believed the girls were prostitutes. But Palm Beach police Chief Michael Reiter and the lead detective, Joe Recarey, both protested the decision, noting that the victims were as young as 14 and that Epstein, who was in his 50s, had used fraud and coercion to lure the girls to his home on the pretense that they would be paid to give him massages.
The records were transcripts of audio recordings of the testimony given before a grand jury convened in 2006. Although grand juries are normally convened for murder cases, Krischer took the unusual step of presenting the case to a grand jury because he was unwilling to allow Palm Beach police to arrest and file charges against the powerful and politically connected pedophile sex trafficker Epstein.
What is clear is that Lanna Belohlavek painted an unsympathetic portrait of the girls, both of whom came from broken families. One of the girls and her sister had been passed back and forth between parents and were taken to a school for troubled juveniles. The girl ran away several times before meeting a group of older kids, one of whom brought her to Epstein's mansion.
She described for the jury how she was ushered into a large bedroom and instructed to strip down to her underwear. Alone in the room with Epstein, and confused about what was happening, she reluctantly complied. After he molested her, he gave her $200.
The very first criminal charge against Jeffrey Epstein was soliciting a prostitute.
That charge came in spite of the testimony of a minor. A 14-year-old girl was the only victim to speak before the 2006 grand jury.
Epstein's original prosecutor, Barry Krischer, could have ended the case in the beginning.
He had 13 underage girls telling strikingly similar stories. They went to Epstein's mansion for "massages" and found themselves in horrific circumstances of rape or molestation by a man four decades their senior.
