Pedophile Billionaire Epstein Arrested, Charged with Sex Trafficking; Pelosi’s Daughter Warns It’s ‘Quite Likely That Some of Our Faves Are Implicated’
By Townhall. Jeffrey Epstein has been a name floated in MeToo era, but as some have noted, has largely escaped accountability for the heinous allegations that have been lobbed against him. He’s been accused of molesting and trafficking underage girls for years. The man is well connected, with ties to British royalty, former President Bill Clinton, and President Trump. . .
BREAKING: @CBSMiami has learned that Jeffrey Epstein was arrested late this afternoon at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey after his private jet landed there from Paris. He was taken into custody by federal agents.

BREAKING: A source also told @CBSMiami federal agents were at Epstein's Noew York home executing a search warrant.
Epstein's arrest follows a series of groundbreaking stories by @MiamiHerald's @jkbjournalist that started last November.

Breaking: Jeffrey Epstein has been arrested for allegedly sex trafficking dozens of minors in New York and Florida between 2002 and 2005, and will appear in court in New York on Monday.
A big score for SDNY. https://t.co/HPyCb9dLj1

Epstein escaped serious federal charges on his alleged proclivities in 2007, but it seems the chickens have come home to roost. He was arrested for trafficking underage girls yesterday and will appear in court Monday. The Miami Herald had a three-part series on how Epstein used his connections and his wealth to escape accountability. The man is a billionaire former hedge fund manager with ties to some of the most powerful people in the world and access to platinum status-level defense lawyers. Yeah, I could see how he got his golden ticket back then. Not so much now.
2. A former federal prosecutor texts how unusual it was that Epstein was arrested on a Saturday. But noted that the feds like to take advantage of airport departures and arrivals for arrests. Epstein landed in NYC on an international flight today and was taken into custody

3. The same former federal prosecutor made note of this detail in the @thedailybeast scoop: that this case has been overseen by the public corruption unit in the SDNY office. Highly unusual for a sex trafficking case to be handled by PCU. 🤔

4. Also they note that the fact that the indictment won’t be unsealed until Monday is also unusual and COULD indicate that there’s a second defendant in this case.

5. Also remember that last week a federal appeals court in NY ordered the unsealing of up to 2,000 documents related to Epstein.

Christine Pelosi Warns It’s ‘Quite Likely That Some of Our Faves Are Implicated’ in ‘Horrific’ Epstein Case
By Fox News. Christine Pelosi, a Democratic National Committee official and daughter of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, warned conspicuously on Saturday evening that it is “quite likely that some of our faves are implicated” in the “horrific” sex-trafficking case against politically connected financier Jeffrey Epstein.
Epstein is due in court following his sudden arrest Saturday in New York on new sex-trafficking charges involving allegations dating to the early 2000s, according to law enforcement officials. He has been accused of paying underage girls for massages and sexually abusing them at his mansion in Palm Beach, Fla., and in New York City. His 72-acre private estate on the Virgin Islands, a home said to be nicknamed “Orgy Island,” also has been under scrutiny.
“This Epstein case is horrific and the young women deserve justice,” Pelosi tweeted. “It is quite likely that some of our faves are implicated but we must follow the facts and let the chips fall where they may – whether on Republicans or Democrats.”
