In reply to the discussion: DOJ says names of two associates Epstein wired $100k and $250k to should stay secret [View all]moniss
(8,072 posts)36. Epstein didn't want the 2 prosecuted because of what
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.

OP
Did I read incorrectly? The 2 payments involve the same people who were not prosecuted?

He likely wired big dollars to others. So we get all but two. As a former auditor this is laughable.
