[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Ultimately, what the Epstein case has demonstrated is how weak and pathetic the judicial branch is in the US. Judges, Justice Department, DAs - scum like Alexander Acosta - have all demonstrated how easily they are warped and paid for by rich men.[/quote]

I spoke with a longtime AUSA about this--retired now.

A prosecutor will generally not charge a case he cannot win.  You must have evidence--not just evidence, but really, you need proof.

If the victims refused to testify, it would be difficult to get a conviction.  Did they refuse?  Were they compromised by payoffs?

There are a lot of cases prosecutors feel have guilty perps--but do not prosecute because they do not have a solid case.  They have to concentrate on cases that will result in conviction.

I doubt Acosta was paid off.

I suspect the victims were tricked into believing they cannot testify due to having signed NDAs or received settlements.  Those absolutely do not bind anyone in the event of criminal activity and that needs to be made very clear and be heard by the victims.  The harder part is in protecting the victims from potential reprisals or dealing with whether they may have received threats.  As long as Trump is in power that is a specter that will hang over everything.[/quote]
