I believe you are who you say you are, and my heart breaks for you. What’s happening to you is a crime, and the west is complicit. I wish I could give, but family medical costs mean I cannot. I am sorry.

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this
