DOJ says names of two associates Epstein wired $100k and $250k to should stay secret

The Justice Department on Friday asked a federal judge overseeing the case of deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein to deny a request from NBC News to unseal the names of two associates who received large payments from him in 2018, court documents show. The Justice Department cited privacy concerns expressed by the two individuals as the reason for not making their names public.
The first associate received a payment of $100,000 from Epstein and the second associate received a payment of $250,000, both in 2018, days after the Miami Herald began publishing a series of investigative stories where victims criticized a plea deal he received in Florida in 2008.
As part of the plea agreement, Epstein secured a statement from federal prosecutors in Florida that the two individuals would not be prosecuted.
The payments became public after Epstein was indicted and arrested in New York in 2019 and asked to be released on bail. Federal prosecutors in New York filed a memorandum on July 16, 2019, that argued Epstein should remain in jail to prevent him from tampering with witnesses.

(29,708 posts)rich white people who got extremely large payments from a convicted pedophile. I mean, they asked nicely, right? Just common courtesy.
My bets are Trump and one of the SCOTUS.
Well then, probably Clarence Thomas.

(8,071 posts)all they might spill about him when their lawyers worked out a deal for them to be cooperating witnesses. It wouldn't matter if it was Crumb the 1st or who it was. Crumb The 1st, along with Maxwell might well be the 2 people who knew the most about what he was up to.
So you send them a nice payment as a gift for "future consideration" if need be. The payment would have the side benefit to Epstein of tying the 2 people to him in a way compromising their credibility if they should decide to rat on him later.

This was far too much money involved in this for Trump not to have his dirty hands all over it.

I can tell you this... if this actually works and those rich assholes get to remain anonymous, then my belief that there is no actual justice (except occasionally by accident, which is no way to run a nation) in this country is all but proven.

but the important issue is the privacy of the people who got either the bribes or the hush money.
*. Aka Epsteins organization. You know the organization that used Trumps plane to move
the girls around, Trumps beauty pageants, and Trumps modeling try outs.

The names should be announced. Of course, Donny will get off again. It just makes sense. All the shit this guy has pulled and gotten by with so far? Adding Pedo to his name is NBD to magats.
But MGT? She'll go ape shit once she finds out the con man is really a con man. Sure would be good entertainment though.
The shit show by the GOP changes daily. Just when you thought something is over, it's something else. I wonder what's next? Amazingly you can't make this shit up.
When I said buckle up months ago, I meant it. Good luck to us all.

(7,142 posts)The prosecutors continued: This individual is also one of the employees identified in the Indictment, which alleges that she and two other identified employees facilitated the defendants trafficking of minors by, among other things, contacting victims and scheduling their sexual encounters with the defendant at his residences in Manhattan and Palm Beach, Florida.
These 4 women were known co-conspirators who were not prosecuted:
-Sarah Kellen worked as Epsteins massage scheduler & allegedly kept a Rolodex of young girls to recruit for Epstein
-Lesley Groff coordinated travel for young girls, often calling to schedule massages.
-Nadia Marcinko According to written testimony by several alleged victims, Marcinkova is described as having encouraged and engaged in sexual acts with young girls while Epstein watched.
-Adriana Ross allegedly helped organize Epsteins predatory sessions

The terms and conditions are hidden in the non-disclosure agreements signed by these parties. In these cases, they probably involve witness tampering and other sleszy costs of doing business payments and what most people would call dirty money.
