Those responsible need to be held accountable, all of them.

3. Make this type of exploitation by anyone punishable, no matter how powerful or connected

Make the punishment at the level that these young people have lost their innocence and futures.

Movie moguls, politicians, members of rich/powerful families. Make them lose 10, 20, 30 years of the joy of life.

Same for us lower class folks. Spouse and child abusers - make them pay the price.

Unless it is stopped in the root of this society it will always be festering.

4. I don't understand why they haven't called out all the folks who abused them.

Is there a strategy to wait for the documents to do the talking? Especially those who were with trump.

the victims, they could be subjected to slander/ and or libel lawsuits from the perpetrators. If the government releases the information, this could shield them from lawsuits.

9. Epstein survivors push for release of files in new PSA, say fight isn't political

This ad is very powerful. This article made me smile

Several women who survived abuse by Jeffrey Epstein have come together for a public service announcement video demanding that Congress release all files on the accused sex trafficker.

“It’s a call to action,” one of the women, Danielle Bensky, told NBC News on Sunday. “While we are Epstein and [Ghislaine] Maxwell survivors, we are standing for so many victims of sexual assault and of domestic violence, as well.”

The PSA, produced by World Without Exploitation, directs the public to a link to send automated letters of support to their congressional leaders. It comes ahead of Tuesday's highly anticipated House vote on releasing those files.

“Many people scroll and they see our stories, and they want to find a way to advocate, and they’re not really sure how,” Bensky said. “We really want to tell people that you can get out there and you can do this for yourself and be a part of what’s starting to really feel like a movement, in a way.”
