yeah but the question is "where do they meet now?"

because lets face it, all the rape, pedophilia, murder, emails, etc didn't suddenly just stop because one guy "killed himself". Someone replaced him.

I want to know who the new guy is and where they all go now.

The crazy part is people that rich were so not worried about their communications that they didn't even bother to encrypt their emails, or host their own communication servers so ensure the data wouldn't get turned over immediately if something went wrong.

encryption merely gives officers an opportunity to use the wrench attack (https://xkcd.com/538/), but wealth beyond all necessity gives one full immunity against the law in the places where these people live.

[–] netvor@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

true but not sure how relevant. it's not like we can choose between encryption and being wealthy beyond all necessity. (or is there some hidden about:config setting?)

There need to be dangers beyond 'law'.

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

There are, but the law dislikes the competition and few militaries are willing to try against those in the USA. People are murdered for ill deeds (both bombed and shot on the street), and kidnapped by gangs or "special forces".

people are murdered for ill deeds

The two people i can think of to have done that in living memory were christopher dorner and whoever luigi mangione took the fall for.

There are more, but we run into issues with sorting motivations and which victims we mean to include. Periodically a rapist or murderer will be killed by the family of the victim when the perpetrator is felt to get a disproportionate punishment. Widening the geographic scope, I understand Uday and Qusay Hussein were killed in a shootout with the USA military. As previously stated, whom to include is a difficult decision.

They probably still meet on an island. Epstein's client list still exists. There were more than just Epstein involved in his organization. The trust is managed by someone and people are still in the island

[–] Signtist@bookwyr.me 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, we like to glorify individuals, but just about every big endeavor, both good and bad, comes from people working together. An organization like Epstein's Island was big enough that it definitely had more people running it than just the 2 big players we know about. Someone from upper management seized the reins and has things running smoothly again by now, I'm sure. We shouldn't be acting like things have been halted - there's still a lot of work to be done to save the victims of the wealthy.
