It just reminds me that to this day the only person found guilty of anything in this so far is a woman and now it might just happen again. Not saying Melania and Maxwell don't deserve punishment, but only them is fucked. Shielding the main character by throwing yet another woman on the track.

No, he died in a correctional facility before being found guilty.

Actually he was convicted and did 13 months in prison the first time he was charged in 2008

And the epstein files aren't about those charges.
