Oh, it's not being a massive nonce they got him for. It was leaking information.

Which is presumably why Epstein let him fly in and have a go on his girl collection in the first place.

We're hitting the point where fucking the kids is OK, but paying for it isn't.

[–] Damorte@lemmy.world 8 points 11 hours ago

Yeah he's not convicted for fucking kids, he's convicted for fucking money. Which of course is a much worse crime as far as our owners are concerned

[–] mickus@sh.itjust.works 5 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Hardly. They waited so god damn long to investigate. The first photo andrew had with that girl should have been reason enough to put him in for questioning

[–] ohulancutash@feddit.uk 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

For what? She wasn’t underaged. The photo wasn’t evidence of a crime.

[–] davetortoise@reddthat.com 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

More than enough grounds for suspicion based on the context

[–] ohulancutash@feddit.uk 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

The bar for arrest is much higher than that.

[–] davetortoise@reddthat.com 2 points 10 hours ago

Crouching over an unconscious woman/girl in a pedophile's mansion? Seems like if that doesn't meet the bar, it really should.

[–] Puddinghelmet@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago

Srsly?? LMAO 👍 🥳🥳🥳🥳

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 83 points 1 day ago (1 children)

lets wait and see.

100% andrew is scum and should be in prison.

but they had decades of accusations and reports. our govt only gave a shit once it was revealed the state was the “victim”. They immediately arrested him.

lock him up, throw away the key.

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago

Decades to gather the will to act.

Seconds to start lording their superiority over the US.

South Korea: That's how you deal with a wannabe dictator!

Thats normal procedure for non-violent crimes (this wasnt about rape/abuse/trafficing), arrest them, interview them, release on bail while they go through all the material they took in the search while he was in the nick.

[–] Geobloke@aussie.zone 3 points 17 hours ago

Probably just wanted to make him sweat

For those who don't remember, he claimed that he couldn't sweat

[–] infinitesunrise@slrpnk.net 62 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

He wasn't arrested for the pedo stuff, pretty sure it was state secrets.

[–] gnutrino@programming.dev 16 points 1 day ago

He was still arrested though and not, to pick a completely random example, elected president for a second time when no one had an excuse not to know what a cunt he was.

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago

No. However in the UK, unsure about other countries, whatever they find during the searches they are doing today will bring other charges in the future (if serious enough).

If there's an inkling of paedo stuff at all then they'll rearrest and charge him again.

[–] LaserTurboShark69@sh.itjust.works 41 points 1 day ago (2 children)

My understanding is that they got him on sharing trade secrets

[–] pressedhams@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Exactly, nothing related to the sexual abuse and exploitation of children.

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

The will to act is related to the sex allegations.

They’ll pin the charges on him that they’re best prepared for.

Either way, it’s related.

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He's about to find out like King Richard II, that it definitely is possible for a Royal to commit treason

Everyone celebrating before the trial has even began, as if it’s already done

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

And South Korea could teach us how to deal with insurrectionists

[–] Hayduke@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It would be if that was the reason they arrested him.

uhhhh... i dont know rick, this feels like its just being done to protect their status quo and that bitchass ends up in a fancy ass house arrest or smth.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wait until they are old, only do something out of fear of otherwise worse consequences, and even then never even prosecute the right stuff?

Yeah, idk, I keep hoping for better, but we kinda keep "giving" rich ppl more & more power, so idk why would things suddenly improve.

A bit like

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

Yuck. That's got to be either Houston or San Antonio.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Did I miss something? The UK arrested his one?

[–] Hayduke@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes, but not for the pedo stuff

I was looking for exactly this meme when I read that South Korea sentenced their ex-president to life in prison.

The rapist formerly known as prince...

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

Didn't they let him go ten minutes later?

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Would it be more accurate if the brit said "nonce"?

You can't divide us, asshole. Americans and Brits alike are against the pedos.

Not the ones charge... But the rest of us are.

Fuck the agitators trying to divide. Fuck WanderWisley. I don't care if it was just a joke. Plenty of MAGA like to say shit like that.

"Trump was just kidding"

Fuck you.
