    Oh, it’s not being a massive nonce they got him for. It was leaking information.

    Which is presumably why Epstein let him fly in and have a go on his girl collection in the first place.

    We’re hitting the point where fucking the kids is OK, but paying for it isn’t.

      Yeah he’s not convicted for fucking kids, he’s convicted for fucking money. Which of course is a much worse crime as far as our owners are concerned

    Hardly. They waited so god damn long to investigate. The first photo andrew had with that girl should have been reason enough to put him in for questioning

    lets wait and see.

    100% andrew is scum and should be in prison.

    but they had decades of accusations and reports. our govt only gave a shit once it was revealed the state was the “victim”. They immediately arrested him.

    lock him up, throw away the key.

      Thats normal procedure for non-violent crimes (this wasnt about rape/abuse/trafficing), arrest them, interview them, release on bail while they go through all the material they took in the search while he was in the nick.

      Probably just wanted to make him sweat

      For those who don’t remember, he claimed that he couldn’t sweat

      He was still arrested though and not, to pick a completely random example, elected president for a second time when no one had an excuse not to know what a massive cunt he was.

      No. However in the UK, unsure about other countries, whatever they find during the searches they are doing today will bring other charges in the future (if serious enough).

      If there’s an inkling of paedo stuff at all then they’ll rearrest and charge him again.

    Wait until they are old, only do something out of fear of otherwise worse consequences, and even then never even prosecute the right stuff, give them a slap on the wrists never dismantling the precesses that lead to the problem?

    Yeah, idk, I keep hoping for better, but we kinda keep “giving” rich ppl more & more power, so idk why would things suddenly, magically improve.

    A bit like

    The rapist formerly known as prince…

    Edit: Don’t hate on me, I realize he wasn’t arrested for that, but still, who knows what all information is left to unearth in the files…

    I was looking for exactly this meme when I read that South Korea sentenced their ex-president to life in prison.
