    The last minute transfer of funds away from Epstein’s account to his brother is fucked. If the state wanted to, it could have been transferred to Epstein’s victims.

    Also Prince Andrew walks free.

      If the US were actually cool we’d send a whole fucking fleet to extract Andrew, kill all the Buckingham palace guards, steal the crown from Charles’ head after kicking him in the shin, then extraditing Andrew back to the States to have him put on trial before locking him up in ADX Florence.

        None of that would be necessary, the US could just say “give us Andrew” and the UK would happily comply.

        Not gonna happen though, because well yeah we know why

          At the very least it would be educational, a test if the British ruling classes’ reflexive subservience to the hegemon is stronger than their reflexive subservience to the crown.
