WHORE CHASER DONALD TRUMP AND PEDOPHILE JEFFREY EPSTEIN
WHAT ARE FEDS UNDER SOCIOPATH LAWYER WILLIAM BAR DOING TO PROTECT THE
WHORE CHASER?
FROM HIS BOOK DISLOYAL…'In some ways, I knew Trump better than even his
family did because I bore witness to the real man, in strip clubs, shady
business meetings, and in the unguarded moments when he revealed who he really
was: a cheat, a liar, a fraud, a bully, a racist, a predator, a con man,' he
revealed. 'I stiffed contractors on his behalf, ripped off his business
partners, lied to his wife Melania to hide his sexual infidelities, and bullied
and screamed at anyone who threatened Trump's path to power,' Michael Cohen admitted.
Federal prosecutors request halt to “Jane Doe” civil lawsuit against
Ghislaine Maxwell and Epstein estate
In an extraordinary development, the US Justice Department is
arguing alongside attorneys for Ghislaine Maxwell, the deceased
sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s collaborator and confidante, that a
civil lawsuit filed by a former child sex abuse victim must be
halted.
In a letter
submitted to a judge in New York’s Southern District Court in Manhattan,
federal prosecutors requested this week that the civil lawsuit filed by “Jane
Doe” last January against Maxwell and the estate of the Jeffrey Epstein be
immediately stayed.
The US attorneys
prosecuting the criminal case against Maxwell—in which the Epstein “social
coordinator” has been charged with six offenses involving sex trafficking of
underage girls and for which she sits in a New York City jail awaiting
trial—wrote that there is a “significant risk” that proceeding with the civil
case “would adversely affect the ongoing criminal prosecution against Maxwell.”
The New York
prosecutors, led by acting US Attorney for the Southern District of New York
Audrey Strauss, argued that a “factual overlap between the civil and criminal
cases” could result in disclosure of evidence and testimony from witnesses who
may be called upon in both cases. The prosecutors also wrote, “Such witnesses
may be forced to testify about any efforts to assist the criminal investigation
and prosecution and may thereby expose facts about the investigation ... and
could potentially expose witnesses and/or their families to harassment.”
The US
attorney’s letter adds, “Moreover, permitting any discovery to proceed in this
[civil] lawsuit would enable Maxwell to seek a preview of trial testimony in
the criminal case, and would afford her with a broader array of discovery than
she is entitled to in the criminal case.”
The civil
lawsuit was filed on January 16 of this year by attorneys representing “Jane
Doe” against Maxwell and two executors of Epstein’s estate, Darren K. Indyke
and Richard D. Kahn. Epstein left behind an estate worth an estimated $577
million after he was found dead in his jail cell under suspicious circumstances
five weeks after his arrest on July 6, 2019 on multiple sex-trafficking
charges.
The unnamed
victim states in the lawsuit that she was abused and sexually exploited
beginning in 1994, after she “met Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell at Interlochen
Arts Camp in Michigan when she was only 13-years-old.” When Jane Doe returned
home to Florida, following a similar pattern described by other accusers,
Epstein and Maxwell “over the course of the next several months” proceeded to
“groom and mentor the 13-year-old” for sexual abuse by Epstein.
The Jane
Doe lawsuit also says that Epstein “took her to Mar-a-Lago where he introduced
her to its owner, Donald J. Trump.” Epstein introduced Doe, just 14 years old
at the time, and “elbowed Trump playfully asking him, referring to her, ‘This
is a good one, right?’ Trump smiled and nodded in agreement.”
Attorneys
for Maxwell have persistently argued against the release of court documents
from previous cases against her, including the text of her deposition in the
defamation lawsuit filed by Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre in 2015.
While this case was settled out of court by Maxwell for an undisclosed amount
in 2017, a batch of documents from it were unsealed in late July that elaborate
on the extensive sex-trafficking operation run by Epstein, including the
participation of various rich and famous people, power brokers, politicians and
royal figures such as Prince Andrew of England.
Similarly,
Maxwell’s lawyers have been arguing that the Jane Doe civil lawsuit should be
stayed by the New York District Court on the grounds that it is superfluous
given the criminal prosecution and that Doe can present her claims to an
Epstein estate fund set aside to compensate his victims.
Maxwell’s
lawyer, Laura Menninger, submitted her own letter on the civil lawsuit last
week, writing, “Absent a stay, Ms. Maxwell will be forced to choose between her
constitutional right to remain silent and her active and vigorous participation
in defending against and refuting [Doe’s] false claims in this case.” Menninger
furthermore states of Jane Doe, “If it is money she seeks, she can pursue it in
the claims program. If it is ‘justice’ she seeks, the criminal case will
resolve those issues one way or the other.”
The strange
coincidence of the legal position of Maxwell and that of US prosecutors in the
criminal case is revealing in that both are seeking to limit the amount of
information that is released to the public about the depraved abuse of
primarily working-class teenage girls from West Palm Beach by Epstein and his
elite friends.
As Jane
Doe’s attorneys have argued, a stay of their case against Maxwell and the
Epstein estate would deprive the victim as well as the public the opportunity
to learn the truth about what was going on for nearly three decades at the
wealthy socialite’s residences in New York City, Palm Beach, Florida, New
Mexico, his private island in the Caribbean and aboard his “Lolita Express”
private jetliner.
Robert
Glassman of Panish Shea & Boyle LLP, representing Jane Doe, wrote in a
letter to the court that his client “is best served by pressing forward with
her claims—not waiting even longer for justice.” Jane Doe is among the only
remaining publicly declared Epstein victims who has refused to submit her
allegations to the estate compensation fund in exchange for remaining silent.
As Glassman
further explains: “The continuation of this last remaining civil avenue can
furnish the public with critical information as to defendant Maxwell’s
well-known criminal enterprise, how it was operated and all those involved. A
stay of the civil proceedings would provide what defendant Maxwell has sought
for years—concealing her heinous acts from public view.”
The question
remains as to the real reasons behind the federal prosecutors agreeing with
Maxwell’s lawyers about halting the civil court case. Who are the “witnesses
and/or their families” who could be potentially exposed to harassment if the
Jane Doe lawsuit goes forward?
Meanwhile,
it must be recalled that it was the intervention of then-US Attorney for the
Southern District of Florida Alex Acosta—who intervened in the 2005 case
against Epstein by the Palm Beach Police Department after a 13-month
investigation that uncovered the abuse of 34 teenage girls—that resulted in a
“non-prosecution agreement,” which prevented any of the victims from testifying
in court.
It is
certain that many elite and powerful individuals—some named, and others not yet
named—who participated in Epstein’s trafficking of young girls for sex, are
working behind the scenes to make sure that nothing more is released to the
public about who they are and what they were doing.
While US
Magistrate Judge Debra Freeman has yet to issue a ruling on the now joint
request to stay the Jane Doe civil lawsuit, she did agree on August 26 to
postpone the deposition of one of the defendants, co-executor of Epstein’s
estate Darren Indyke. In a letter to the court at that time, attorney Glassman
wrote that he has “reason to believe” that Indyke personally has “firsthand
knowledge” of Epstein’s relationship with Doe while she was a minor and “even
acted on Jeffrey Epstein’s behalf to communicate with [Doe] on several
occasions.”
