Read something interesting the other day, women are the victims of these people and the only person locked up is a woman. Makes you think.
It depends what type of friend this person is. If she is someone who met Ransome at the island then she could be under 18.
I've not said he was trafficking in only minors. But for the default position to be 'it can be all innocently explained away' when we know there is a cloud over him seems to be giving him the benefit of doubt.
We also don't know how long women were on the island. I suspect there wouldn't be a big turn over of women, so women now over 18 might have started when they were younger.
Human trafficking suggests to me that they didn't have the freedom to leave.

Well Jeffrey was going to do major time but you know he killed himself before the trial.
Well, it makes you think that Epstein killed himself so the only two people they had enough evidence to send to jail were sent to jail...
I'm using pedophile in the popular sense not the literal sense. Ephebophilia would be more applicable to Epstein.Epstein from everything I've read wasn't a paedophile in in the true sense of the word, he wasn't into pre pubescent girls, he was into young women/girls, so early 20s down to say 14. So there are going to be women who might have been of the age of consent but that doesn't mean they weren't sex trafficked and weren't coerced/abused. You don't have to be a prisoner to be sex trafficked. You just have to be coerced, controlled emotionally and psychologically and then moved across state lines. Both Epstein and Maxwell controlled women in this way, I've not seen anything where they held women as literal prisoners.
Also you seem fixed on the island. He had sex parties and abused women at all his properties, not just on the island. He wasn't some Bond villain holed up on some island.
This is my 3rd day in this thread.
The first two days i couldn't understand what the argument is about.
Today i didn't even read it.

The description your describing about trafficked women could also be used for the women in the Andrew Tate situation. Still bad and still illegal.
Epstein is worse than a Bond villain. He's a convicted child abuser. He'd already been convicted of abusing a 14 year old girl.
There is a dark humour joke about a villain petting cats. But it might be to soon for that jokeI agree.
Yes that is the description of the story that we were discussing. Of course he also trafficked minors but I don't believe in this story that is the case.
My point with the Bond villain comment is that you write like that island is the only place he trafficked women to and abused women at, he did it at all his properties.
Never too soon!There is a dark humour joke about a villain petting cats. But it might be to soon for that joke
