Well put. I've been so sick to my stomach with this. And knowing that her and Chanel Miller from Stanford are not the only ones this happens to really makes it hard. As someone else told me, this is how the epstein class continues to keep happening.

Thank you Dana for your essay. "Insufficient evidence." This seems to be a commonly used excuse for not following through with criminal charges in S/A & domestic violence complaints. I've read those two words often in public announcements via city & county alert systems. As long as there are people excusing away this disgusting & criminal behavior & not following through with proper investigations & charges, we will never stop this. The Epstein case is an example of why young men feel they are exempt from criminal charges & prison.

Central Park 5 he takes out an AD. And calls for the execution. He demands the they get the death penalty. Cornell crickets. And the Central Park 5 were innocent. Stanford student convicted of rape. He gets a slap on the wrist. Basically a speeding ticket. What privilege. Great piece by you. Wonder what Don will say about this one?
