He just got released what a joke
The default in the UK is to be released on bail. The current charges are for leaking documents, and the royals have made it clear they are not going to get in the way. His lawyers would have a field day with the police for not allowing bail, given what he’s currently been charged with.
Hopefully that will change, now the investigation is officially open, but it’s the nature of our legal system.
the royals have made it clear they are not going to get in the way
Of course lad, that’s going to show him, after how much jail time he’s faced. Oh wait… he’s only facing anything because he got caught publicly.
Pathetic royal dick wranglers.
In terms of old money politics, they’ve thrown him to the wolves.
He’s effectively gotten old fashioned parole (old European, rather than American). If he disappears, everyone will assume they are involved. They won’t want him making them look bad, so will not let him use their resources to flee.
A reminder that they got Al Capone for Tax Evasion. Not the murders and racketeering.
Sometimes it doesn’t matter what someone is arrested for in the end, as long as they see justice one way or another.
We also need to make sure we don’t accidentally witch hunt. While I think most of the Epstein files are genuine, there is a possibility of fakes. It would be entirely in his MO to create fake or misleading evidence, when he couldn’t get the real thing. The charges need to be backed by other evidence as well, which takes time to gather.
In the UK you aren’t allowed to protest Israel’s genocide.
These governments are such trash. Fuck them both.
The UK government is even more hostile to trans people than the US as well. Fuck them both.
I didn’t even know about this. Why the fuck are so many powerful and wealthy people always persecuting minorities that have done absolutely nothing to the system they supposedly represent?
I understand how tribalism and scapegoating works, but how are so many people falling for this?
Every time I hear MAGA people talk about almost anything here in the States, I have to wonder if there are literally worms in their brains like JFK Jr.
There is a protest in my city every week, what do you mean you can’t protest it?
In referring to Palestine Action being labeled a terrorist group. Thousands of people have been arrested for peacefully protesting.
Is it? It’s he in prison? Is this justice?
Do not test on your laurels, everyone. We must put them all away for their crimes.
Aaaaaaaand he is out again.
In case anyone wants to read more about how hilariously pathetic this was:
That victim of ICE is going straight to the fuck cage. This is how Epstein Island gets democratized.
A significant number of sex crimes in prison are done by prison staff.
The photo is better:
They’re creepy and they’re kooky…
Rapist Andrew was released after 10mins of questioning. If it was some 9-5 , he would be rotting in jail for the rest of his life.
You plebs go to work, slave so hard , pay your taxes and get treated like shit. Do you deserve it?
Maybe stop glazing UK look at massive crackdowns against Palestine protests or the still extreme police repression of the poor not to mention the ICE similar oppression of migrants which they also have.
Maybe do glaze the UK for doing something that should be the bare minumum, yet still eludes a specific country.
I mean it took a very long time to get him but also the chargers are not about his extra carricular activities… They are about sharing some secrets or something… its a sham
Al Capone was stopped by the IRS. It’s something at least.
It’s not justice, though. Points for getting him on that, lord knows the US isn’t prosecuting for it either, but potentially being done for financial crime instead of the mountains of evidence showing him to be an international rapist pedophile monster is a joke.
For what it’s worth, Capone was only stopped by syphilis - he ran the mob just fine from prison until it got so bad he couldn’t. Which I admit is a solution I wholeheartedly endorse in this instance, too.
technically true,
but in reality, they made new IRS law just for him. the rules about declaring illegal income. So if he does, it’s a confession, if he doesn’t that’s a crime that’s easier to prove than specific extortion/murders.
it wasn’t like they got him for a minor tax offense, but made up new rules just to catch him.
At least that put Capone in jail, I read the expected penalty for Andrew is a fine. Which is nothing to a wealthy man.
So a little public embarrassment and then straight back to a life of wealth and comfort
Which shows how shit and wrong our society is
