We all know the outcome of the investigation into his island, with his eventual arrest and death. But what became of his staff? You don’t run an operation that large without the help of dozens, or hundreds of people. Most of those people were accomplices to multiple felonies. I’m sure there were a few who didn’t know what sort of operation they were a part of, but many must have. I don’t remember reading about any other arrests other than his. Were there other arrests, and if so, how many? What about his suppliers? The gangs that would sell him slaves, and the human traffickers who smuggled the victims? Did they all get off Scott free?

    They got scooped up by others who needed someone to do behind the scenes work discreetly.

    The answer is: Money, big amounts of money my friend.

    Edit: Out there are people who are willing to do anything for money. And as you should know, money = power.

    Disregarding the conspiracy theories, if he had (for example) 10 staff, kept 7 of them absolutely in the dark and away from anything they could narc on and either had dirt on the other 3 or paid them obscene money to not ask questions… those 3 arent coming forward to say what they knew, they are giving the same story as everyone else “I saw nothing”.

      This is compartmentalization. Letting people know only what they need to know to be effective, nothing more, and keep the arms of the organization separated as much as possible.

    It’s impressive no one knows a shit about Epstein case besides he was a financial billionaire arrested related to horrible things and he appeared dead in jail and is his secretary who no one’s knows nothing what’s going on and … end. Media is doing a good job. Independent journalist are extinct .

    If he was Mossad as suggested, or some variation thereof, my guess is nobody was too close to him beyond normal pleasantries and a job description.

    It’d be an interesting investigation, though.
