Does anybody actually believe that Stephen Hawking was involved in the illegal activities?
I believe that he was probably a sexual person in some form and he probably had money so maybe he might have paid for sex. But I have no idea really.
Maybe in his earlier life. He was married more than once and had three children.
His name does appear in the Epstein files, but he was never actually accused of anything related to Epstein. To say that Hawking was a pedophile is speculation at best.
Another factor here is that Epstein was obsessed with physics and being friends with physicists.
While Epstein was always a monster. He could hide it around certain people.
But from everything I've read, the monster always comes out. And we all know what being Epstein's friend eventually entails.
That's pure speculation. Your argument what is referred to as "guilt by association". Your argument has no basis. It wouldn't hold up in court.
These people don't care. I got downvoted to hell by saying the same thing. Apparently faktual evidence isn't the norm in here.
