Hate to break it to you, but these monsters aren't being arrested for being pedos. They're being arrested for suspicion of mishandling government documents, that just happen to have been uncovered alongside all the Epstein shit.

They also haven't been charged. That may take months, if they even decide to do it at all. I'd be surprised if any of them face any consequences beyond spending a day at the police station.

it is so funny that the only attempted persecution of political elites in the west come from document mishandling

Similar to going after trump for improperly filling his hush money statements

Nazism was born out of beaurocratic procedures.

I'll wait for convictions before giving the government who appointed him ambassador after his connections to Epstein were public knowledge much credit

But seeing these ghouls experience an arrest is gratifying, I just hope it will lead to consequences remotely fit the crimes and the state won't rest on their laurels of simply the arrests 'oh we're much better than the yanks we arrested our nonces. What's that you want them convicted? Woah now that's a bit extreme'

Good point, till we start seeing public castration of the pedos, it could all be theatrics.

That's the attitude, but maybe we could start by just stripping them of the life of luxury they lead in a country with a child poverty crisis
