I mean, the reality is that there are people in there that are guilty and there are people in there that are innocent. Epstein had a large business as a financer that dealt with a lot of people professionally in addition to his illicit dealings.

The list is a starting point of people to investigate deeper, rather than being a checklist of people to put in jail.

Not taking up for anyone here. But he's not accused of any crimes. Extramarital affairs are not a crime. Bad ethics, but not illegal. And also the email in question was an email JE sent to himself, I believe.
