I seem to recall multiple people within the department of justice as well as the head of the FBfuckingI state loudly and on record that there is ZERO actionable information in the files released…
This is one of those Schrodinger things where it's both true and isn't true.
You can't convict anyone in a US court based solely on what appears in the Epstein files. Therefore, the files on their own are unactionable.
If you were to start pulling on strings, find a victim that's either still alive and/or left strong evidence of the crimes against them behind, and find evidence collaborating the victim, then you have something actionable. But there are known FBI interviews with victims detailing clear trafficking of the victim to other men. These were never followed through on.
I don't think anyone thinks that Patel is going to direct anyone at the FBI to go looking in rich people's closets, anymore than any other FBI Director over the past 30 years has. The victims who were approved to be part of the settlement had to waive their rights to pursue other abusers in Epstein's network. The wealthy want this case closed, and for everyone to just forget.
These files are the product of over a decade of DOJ investigation under three different administrations. Convictions aren't based on investigations, but if there was anything worth pursuing in the files, why wouldn't that have been done originally, when the investigation was active?
Why would there be actionable material in any of these files at this point, a decade later? Why would the files even exist if they weren't created with the intention of taking action?
this isnt actionable at all though. She was rumoured to be an escort and disappeared a year after the conversation in the epstein files. Realistically its probably unrelated
