One of the most powerful moments of the Epstein survivors' press conference was one of the women saying she heard the same reassuring voice that Ghislaine Maxwell used with Todd Blanche...when Maxwell was grooming her to be abused by Epstein et. al.

The overall takeaway from the Epstein survivors’ press conference is that they are united and are no longer going to allow rich and powerful men to victimize, silence and intimidate them. Including the ones in Congress and the perp in the Oval Office.

Giving a predator like Ghislain Maxwell a platform, moving her to a comfortable prison without receiving anything in return except to claim innocence and say you’re nice guy— when 100’s of children where victimized is a miscarriage of justice. Epstein survivor—“…She also participated in the abuse…”
