"The fact that people need a dead man's files to believe..."

29. The girls didn't make the decisions that resulted in their trafficking...

...they were groomed and tricked into that situation.

They were told they'd get modeling jobs, become massage therapists, get college paid for, etc.

Epstein, Maxwell, and Trump got to know them well enough to know what their dreams were, what they wanted or needed, and then offered them that - but only in exchange for being raped and trafficked to a bunch of wealthy, powerful men.

They didn't know they were in that situation until it happened. And by then, they were obligated and threatened. One of them was even told that her house would be burnt down if she told anyone. Another was told her little brother would be killed, or rather, "we know where your little brother goes to school" - it was a threat.

The girls did not make these decisions. They wanted to pursue their futures. When young men rush to pursue their futures, they get legitimate help. When too many young women act to pursue their futures, they are tricked and trafficked.

They didn't "decide" to end up in Epstein's vicious, abusive web. OTHERS decided that FOR them.
