Epstein Docs: DOJ Moves at the Speed of Elite Accountability
The DOJ's leisurely pace on the Epstein document release, as reported by DW, rings with familiar echoes of official foot-dragging. We're talking about a case involving high-profile individuals and alleged abuses stretching back decades. Yet, after years in judicial purgatory, a 'few weeks' is the best the public can hope for? This is a playbook move straight out of the 'delay, obfuscate, then
bury' manual reserved for the politically connected. One might wonder if the 'few weeks' includes a comprehensive redaction process to safeguard reputations rather than genuinely expedite justice. This isn't about some technical glitch; it's about managing public perception and protecting powerful networks. When it comes to accountability for the rich and well-connected, the wheels of justice
often don't just turn slowly; sometimes, they grind to a strategic halt, only to restart when convenient for those at the top. The public should expect full transparency, not a drip-feed timed to minimize impact.
