Maybe -- based on what?
Mostly the raped kids... Do you need more than that?
What pages of publically released Epstein files prove beyond a reasonable doubt that an individual rapes kids?
This administration DOJ is run by president's criminal lawyer, who wants to stay away from the files (interestingly doesn't even go after Democrats).
So no, as long this is done don't get a proper trial.
But with actions of this administration, you can't deny that at very least trump and Republicans do everything in their power to protect pedophiles, it does to the point that trump is ok with breaking the law that nearly every Congress person voted for, ruining his own legacy by being labeled one instead releasing the files and at very least cleaning up his own name.
So yeah, that to me is a proof beyond a reasonable doubt that we are being run by pedophiles and pedophile protectors.
We're talking about things available to the public that confirm individuals as having raped kids.
It's very rare during a trial to have a direct evidence of a crime (so called smoking gun), it usually is multiple corroborating evidence that then is used by prosecutor to paint how the crime was committed.
The defense then has to show why that's not plausible.
So can you provide some defense then, because to me it is beyond a reasonable doubt.
DOJ killed the investigation, saying there's no one left to investigate and that Epstein committed all those crimes alone.
So why not release the files (especially since law requires it) to clear everyone wrongfuly listed there?
You haven't linked any publically available documents yet... We're still here, at step one.
Also why are you talking about releasing the rest of the files? That has nothing to do with the claim here.
The fragments of the files are public and are hosted on DOJ website and implicate a lot of people, a lot from the circles of the president.
You talked about reasonable doubt, please provide me what's the "reasonable doubt" when:
So why would trump prefer to break law not releasing those files that would clear everyone (including himself) of those accusations?
There's no one blocking him and as mentioned there's a law actually mandating him to do it, so what's your reasonable doubt that he and his friends aren't guilty?
Not many criminals have the option of controlling their prosecutors.
But you won't cite any so we're still stuck at step 1.
You want me to cite 6 million files?
You talked about reasonable doubt.
So what is your reasonable doubt why he can't publish all files to clear himself of any accusation?
I want you to cite any.
I think you might have gotten lost: You're defending the claim that there is information in the currently publicly available files to justify executing individuals. You need to showcase examples to defend that claim.
There are so many, and it is irrelevant to the argument I'm making, but here is the latest one:

Most of them.
Even ignoring the child rape, they're billionaires. Reason enough as is.
So just populist brainrot. Got it.
Not hearing an actual rebuttal, just name calling
There was nothing of substance to rebut. Just: BiLlIoNaIrEs BaD, MuSt BeHeAd ThEm AlL
