Before we all talked about Harvey Weinstein and the scandals in Hollywood, Jeffrey Epstein had been convicted on charges related to sexual abuse of minors. As it is a billionaire, hedge fund manager on Wall Street, the media resonance was not so lively nor was there greater judicial repercussion in 2008, when he was charged with two counts of prostitution in a Florida court.
The plot is much more complex and involves several geographical points of the United States. Epstein was being accused of creating a network of young girls to force them to have sex in their opulent mansion facing the sea, sometimes three times a day, in exchange for money, according to the Palm Beach Police investigation.
She was also suspected of trafficking girls, including from other countries, for sex parties in her residences in Manhattan, New Mexico and the Caribbean, according to FBI and court records.
In a series of reports on the case, Miami Herald journalist Julie K. Brown writes : "Faced with a 53-page federal indictment, Epstein could have ended up in prison for the rest of his life."
His money and powerful connections in the American judicial gear made the case go from the federal level to the state and served just 13 months in the private wing of the county jail of Palm Beach, with the right to go to "work" to a "comfortable office "located in West Palm Beach," which allowed him to be out of the facility six days a week for 12 hours, "says Brown, adding:" This was done despite the explicit rules of the Palm Beach Police that indicate that those convicted of sexual crimes do not meet the requirements to go to work. "
Epstein was also registered as a sexual aggressor on judicial lists, all products of a secret agreement reached by his lawyers and the state prosecutor of that moment, today in the Trump Administration, exposed in the investigations conducted by the Miami Herald .
WITH THE FAVOR OF ALEXANDER ACOSTA
The tycoon's mansions in Florida, New York, New Mexico and on the private island Little St. James (in the Virgin Islands), and even the private plane renamed " Lolita Express ", are the main scenes investigated of the sexual crimes committed by The financial.
Between 2001 and 2005, when the police discovered the plot, it is estimated that sexually abused young girls between the ages of 13 and 16 per dozen. The current estimates estimate that the victims reached a hundred. Local police referred the case to the FBI in 2006, "when they began to suspect that the Palm Beach State Attorney's Office was undermining their investigation," says Brown.
The prosecutor of that time is the current Labor Secretary of the Trump Administration, Alexander Acosta, a Republican lawyer who climbed to his current position from the Southern District of Florida under the Bush administration.

Acosta in his work as prosecutor of yesteryear promised the whistleblowers, girls who grew up with traumas and diverse pathologies, the fulfillment of justice against the defendant multimillionaire. The financial power was more with the agreement that came with the lawyers of Epstein, specifically Jay Lefkowitz of Washington DC.
The secret agreement of Epstein is one that withdrew the accusations ("non-prosecution agreement") and guaranteed immunity "to any potential accomplice" so that none of the friends and relatives of the financier suffered consequences. The treatment contemplated that neither the victims nor the general public could have access to the judicial documents of the case.
Thus, any repairs to the related victims were forgotten. For now.
Acosta, who is now 49 years old, in the Trump cabinet supervises a huge federal agency in charge of compliance with federal labor laws, including those related to human trafficking . A paradox very usual in the structures of the White House, in which they put wolves to look after sheep.
He has also been on a list of possible candidates to replace Jeff Sessions as secretary of justice, recalls the Miami Herald .
The US president did not have to throw him out for some kind of moral commitment, Acosta himself resigned due to media pressures that began to rise in recent days.
THE FRIENDS OF A SEXUAL CRIMINAL ON WALL STREET
The victims were young girls from poor families, who for 100 or 200 dollars gave their bodies for the sexual enjoyment of Epstein. Sometimes, to silence violations, the billionaire paid $ 1,000, and encouraged them to recruit other girls, always minors, with more money.
An easy target for a well-off sexual criminal. But it is not everything. He also trafficked sexual favors with friends and relatives, as recently reported by Sarah Ransome , including lawyers, bankers, movie stars, politicians and even members of British royalty.
Most media point to a vast "network of friends" who may be involved in the criminal plots of Jeffrey Epstein, including the most visible Bill Clinton, former US president and known for the sex scandal that made him resign from the White House .
In fact, the corrupt Clinton Foundation has Epstein as one of its funders and co-founders .
According to the testimony of Virginia Roberts Giuffre , one of the plaintiffs, the tycoon's private plane was also used for the sexual trafficking of minors, and it was there, in "Lolita Express", where she was abused by Prince Andrew of York and the octogenarian lawyer and Harvard professor Alan Dershowitz, the latter also accused by Ransome. Is it coincidence that both names appear in flight logs ?
On the other hand, there is the so-called " little black book " by Jeffrey Epstein, under the care of his landlord Alfredo Rodríguez, who told the FBI that it was a thorough compilation of the billionaire's sexual network of minors. The names noted there involve people with a public face as clients and accomplices of the plot:
Ralph Fiennes (actor)
Alec Baldwin (actor)
David Blaine (conjurer)
Jimmy Buffett (musician)
Courtney Love (musician)
Charlie Rose (PBS journalist)
Mike Wallace (CBS journalist)
Barbara Walters (ABC journalist)
Ehud Barak (former prime minister of Israel)
Tony Blair (former Prime Minister of Great Britain)
David Koch (from Koch Industries)
Leslie Wexner (billionaire)
Bruce King (former governor of New Mexico)
Bill Richardson (former governor of New Mexico)
Peter Soros (nephew of George Soros)
John Gutfreund (financier, called the "King of Wall Street")
Prince Andrew of York (British monarchy)
Bill Clinton (former president)
Donald Trump (current president of the United States)
Yes, Donald Trump appears on this list. Will the federal prosecutor call the US president after the Epstein case was reopened in New York?
The FBI arrested the tycoon on Saturday July 6 and on Monday 8 he pleaded not guilty to the charges in this note mentioned. The prosecution, meanwhile, described as "extremely disturbing" the photos found in the residences of the accused, which serve as evidence of their sexual crimes a decade ago.

IN THE POLITICAL CORE
In view of the full range of recognized names involved, even indirectly, in the case, there is a high expectation that more people will be brought to court than with the case against Harvey Weinstein.
And, in fact, the relationships that the investigation has with Secretary Acosta today and Epstein's lawyers, including the aforementioned Dershowitz, could create a reaction on the part of Congress and start an investigative hearing from Washington. The resignation of Acosta does not answer this scenario, but perhaps he does with another character to uncover.
In fact, will anyone else fall apart from Epstein and Acosta? Do you have any letters up your sleeve, after the scandal in 2008?
Trump once said of Epstein that he is a "great guy, it's quite fun to hang out with him, he even says he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are young." Then I would say that I hardly knew him.
But what is striking as well as the facts is that the scandal arises in an electoral context, with the re-election of Trump in the sights and the Democratic Party, which at least demands the resignation of Acosta, wanting to return to the House White as it is.
Although the #MeToo movement managed to draw attention to sexual abuse in the upper echelons of the American socialite, surely the traffic of minors that are propitiated in the shadows by other persons of deep power will not be judged, let alone known, unless some political rent in a society highly supervised and instrumentalized by the corporate information and propaganda channels such as the United States.
In fact, at the beginning of the year , Acosta himself proposed to the Department of Labor to cut 80% of the budget for the fiscal year 2020 to a program dedicated to combating human trafficking, forced labor and child labor. There will be less chance that the victims of the poor strata of society can see any judicial light in their favor. There is only what we insist on calling justice for the wealthy citizens, as Hollywood actresses.
Once again, the repercussions of sexual cases in relation to millionaires and billionaires in the United States reconnects with the political moment. The Epstein case can be played as one of the main democratic letters against the president tycoon because of the connections he emanates, taking into account that the prosecution of politicians is usual.
Empire in there are many crimes to win, and anyone can be used against the momentary guests of the White House.
