Analysis by Channel 4 News has identified emails within the latest Epstein files that suggest that the mountain of information released by the US Department of Justice could amount to just a fraction of the total – potentially just 2% of the information that the FBI retrieved from Epstein’s homes.

    I don’t want to be the one to view them, but I want them to be viewable.

      You want the CSAM to be viewable? You are calling for the public release of CSAM?

        A necessary casualty. Somewhere in that material is evidence of abuse, and it needs to be investigated and prosecuted. We can’t trust the current administration to adequately do either of those things in good faith, so it needs to be analyzed publicly if there is ever to be any sort of justice for the victims.

        A functional justice system would have resolved this years ago, but we don’t have one of those so I really don’t see any alternative other than making everything public.

        If its viewable then it will be a lot more difficult for idiots to argue that the Epstein files is a hoax

          You want kid’s histories of child abuse viewable for… evidence?

          Wow… yeah, we need to re-traumatize kids by posting their naked bodies online because that’s how we prove Epstein really abused kids

            Then censor their identities. The reality is they’re trying to push the narrative that they didn’t abuse children, and if they released it that narrative would be completely crushed which would be far more devastating for the government than what’s happening right now.

        Yes. That is the only path forward given the statements and reusable to move forward with any charges.

        They are counting on our ick to get away with this. They have actually used this as a reason. Why should anyone still giving them the benefit of the doubt? They are child predators and child predator enablers. By siding with them, you become one of them.

        Releasing documentation of what happened doesn’t change what happened, it isn’t going to incentivize rich assholed to make more.

          How does CSAM tell you anything about the abuser? It only reveals the victim.

            Often the abuser is in the photo. That’s led to the arrest of many a child abuser. The only reason that releasing the evidence in this case is necessary is that the people who we usually trust to look at the evidence and pursue the guilty party are not doing their fucking jobs.

              Really? You see a lot of CSAM? That’s not my understanding of it at all, but I’ll defer to the expert
