"Documents unsealed by the U.S. House Oversight Committee detail the extensive relationship and email correspondence between former independent counsel and Baylor University president Kenneth Starr and the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Key details from the released files include:

The 2008 Plea Deal: Long before he served as president of Baylor, Starr acted on Epstein’s defense team. He was instrumental in securing a highly controversial non-prosecution agreement that granted Epstein immunity from federal sex trafficking charges, which was later uncovered by journalists at the Miami Herald.

Baylor University Visit: Newly released communications verify that Starr hosted Epstein on the Baylor University campus in Waco, Texas, in 2012, four years after Epstein’s initial sex crime conviction.

Close Correspondence: The emails—reviewed in depth by outlets like Chron—reveal a remarkably warm friendship. Starr frequently signed off his messages with phrases like "Hugs, Ken," "love ya," and "Yuletide hugs".

Defending Epstein: The files include a 2018 email where Starr defended the lenient 2008 plea deal, arguing that Epstein "paid his debt to society" and stating that his crimes should be allowed to close "in the spirit of the bedrock American belief in second chances"

The utter hypocrisy of the Republicans is disgusting and completely expected.
