I read an interesting article in the DailyCaller where they spoke with Jane Anderson, a former human trafficking prosecutor in Miami-Dade County about what the feds have on the Jeffery Epstein case and frankly, it’s shocking that no one has moved on this case.
Shocking, but I’m willing to bet it wouldn’t be surprising if we could only get our hands on the list of creeps (clients) Epstein served.
Pedophilia and corruption have been dominating the news since Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s horrific crimes came to light. Epstein’s “little black book” – which contains the names of many powerful and influential figures – has become a major source of evidence of his associates’ involvement in his sex trafficking network. Despite the evidence, many of Epstein’s associates still remain free. Here’s why.
When it comes to prosecuting sex traffickers, the process can take years. This is largely due to the complexity of the cases, which involve international networks of people and evidence that can be hard to come by. As Benjamin Bull, chief legal counsel at the National Center on Sexual Exploitation, said, “It is not atypical for a human trafficking case to take several years to investigate and prosecute.”
The evidence in Epstein’s case is not only extensive, but it also implicates some of the most powerful people in the world. His contacts list includes former President Bill Clinton, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Prince Andrew of the United Kingdom, former President Donald Trump, and more. His pilot, Larry Visoski, testified during the criminal trial of Epstein’s partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, that he saw Clinton and disgraced actor Kevin Spacey among Epstein’s famous clients.
It’s clear that the Feds have all the evidence they need to go after Jeffrey Epstein’s buddies, but it’s equally clear that they’re dragging their feet when it comes to taking action. This is unacceptable. It’s time for the U.S. government to take a stand against pedophilia and corruption and put an end to this horrendous system of exploitation and abuse.
The victims of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s crimes deserve justice and the perpetrators of these heinous crimes must be held accountable. We must not let the powerful and influential figures escape justice. We must fight for the victims and ensure that justice is served. The U.S. government must do more to protect the vulnerable and put an end to the exploitation of children and young adults.
Prosecutors can seek primary sources of evidence such as “interviews, digital evidence, public and government documents, financial information, and more. Access to such material needs probable cause (or other legal requirements) and instruments such as court orders, search warrants, or subpoenas,” Anderson told the Caller.
According to Anderson, a criminal case may typically be proven beyond a reasonable doubt if at least one witness can deliver testimony.
“The law in most states specifically says that a case can be established beyond a reasonable doubt based on the testimony of one witness. However, I would think most prosecutors would prefer to have corroborating evidence (testimonial, physical, circumstantial, or direct) to support a victim’s testimony,” Anderson said.
Anderson stated that if no victims are available to testify, prosecutors might pursue a case based on other primary source material and witness testimony. If victims are too traumatized and scared to offer credible evidence, prosecutors may seek related charges based on organized criminal legislation and money laundering.
As part of their criminal operation, sex trafficking rings typically conduct a range of other crimes, including “physical and sexual assault, money crimes, drug crimes, image-abuse crimes, stalking, and witness intimidation,” Anderson told the Caller.
“Organized crime statutes and conspiracy statutes would also want to be looked at. There are other prostitution-related crimes that could be used to charge traffickers or ‘buyers’ – not victims – but, they are typically misdemeanors or low level felony crimes, depending on the state,” Anderson added. “It is a good investigatory and prosecutorial strategy to focus on the offender’s entire criminal activity to better hold them accountable, whether a victim is able or unable to testify.”

Sex trafficking cases usually come down to victim testimonies. Prosecutors have plenty of girls and women who are willing to come forwards, even if some remain anonymous, there is a case here. So why aren’t they moving?
Sure, Epstein’s partner in crime Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison but she wasn’t forced to name names, as far as we know.
You can read DailyCaller’s article [here] where they break down all of the legal aspects of how easy this case would be to move forward on for prosecution. The fact that no one has moved, speaks volumes.
