Jeffrey Epstein documents to be unsealed, potentially revealing acquaintances

I always find it interesting how when these things get revealed, nobody seems to update their priors on "conspiracy theories" going forward. A couple weeks after these stories break it's back to making fun of "tinfoil hat" people and acting like it's all a big joke. I wonder if it's some kind of deep seated coping mechanism to refuse to update beliefs on stuff like that

&gt; One of the eight individuals is Tom Pritzker, a billionaire executive chairman of Hyatt Hotels, who said the release of documents connecting him to the controversial financier would cause reputable harm, according to Insider.<p>&gt; [Judge] Preska mostly disagreed with his concerns, saying many of the documents were already available in other legal challenges and that their contents did not specify malicious actions.<p>Looks like nothing damning is about to come out.

Epstein wasn&#x27;t some one-dimensional cartoon villain who spent 100% of his time on his private island managing his evil enterprises.<p>He also had a pretty successful career in banking&#x2F;finance&#x2F;investing which made him a ton of money and was pretty active with that money as a philanthropist. He had a bazillion connections to leading businesspeople, politicians, celebrities, scientists, universities, and religious leaders due to those activities.<p>Because of that there is nothing really suspicious about someone being acquainted with Epstein. That&#x27;s why there was not much of a stir previously when his contact list and the logs of passengers on his plane were leaked and widely distributed.

It looks like Epstein was in the business of creating and selling, or using for his own purposes, compromising material on powerful people. So I would prefer this is released without redaction.<p>The harm in Epstein&#x27;s &quot;work&quot; is that it makes governments subject to manipulation and degrades representation. The only way to get past this problem is to reveal all and get compromised people, even if you like them, out of positions where they can be manipulated.

Well, do not look for those dangling in the webs of compromat, look at who pulls the strings.<p>So whose issues are voting senators for that were implicated with the Epstein case. Whoever it is, organizing those snychronous direction changes, holds the harddrives.<p>Who inherited the effect Jeffrey Eppstein had on his surroundings?

Epstein&#x27;s injuries look more like murder than suicide, noted pathologist says (miamiherald.com)<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=21399034" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=21399034</a>

Will this inform us to whether or not he was able to execute his plan to &quot;seed humanity&quot; he told so many people about? Does Jeffrey Epstein have dozens or more secret kids via this eugenics plan of his?<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nytimes.com&#x2F;2019&#x2F;07&#x2F;31&#x2F;business&#x2F;jeffrey-epstein-eugenics.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nytimes.com&#x2F;2019&#x2F;07&#x2F;31&#x2F;business&#x2F;jeffrey-epstein-...</a>

I suspect him to be involved with the gcc steering committee (via financing) and some disastrous decisions, like moving gcc code to c++ (aka destroying for good sane mainstream opensource software bootstraping). Hope nobody with interests to sabotage critical opensource software was in the acquaintances of this trash (cf GNU drama at the MIT, if I recall properly).

Man, I was getting excited about reading the speculation on which billionaire had been dead long enough that they could release the client list. Sad it&#x27;s just the 8 and not the hundreds to thousands that need to be named.

Seems like you would need transportation to the island. Wouldn&#x27;t there be a ledger somewhere? If you flew to the island, there would <i>have</i> to be a ledger.

Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of trafficking hundreds of children over 20 years to….. nobody.<p>They will never reveal the true list of clientele.

But then oops, the documents will unfortunately be lost&#x2F;misplaced&#x2F;burned in an accidental fire&#x2F;wiped by a sudden digital storage failure...<p>Just as the camera outside Epstein&#x27;s cell &quot;failed&quot;.<p>(mostly) tongue in cheek here, before anyone claims me to be a conspiracy nut.

It&#x27;s going to be revealed that virtually everyone with money was involved with him somewhat, then it will never be brought up again.

This case has taken on such a life of it&#x27;s own. We&#x27;ll see what these documents reveal but I&#x27;d wager it&#x27;s nothing terribly salacious. We really have no reason to believe he ensnared anyone aside from maybe Prince Andrew in anything illicit. Some third hand source said he had all this compromising information on the rich and powerful and everyone just believed it. It&#x27;s still possible but just isn&#x27;t very likely.
