The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

It took authorities almost two decades to reveal how these prosecutors maligned teenage victims rather than their pedophile abuser. Every attorney involved in this case should be ashamed of themselves for who they hurt, not to mention who they let off scot-free. While it's important that the public is finally hearing about this, the fact of the matter is that the victims will never truly get the justice they deserved in 2006.

Establishment-critical narrative

The far more nefarious side of this story is that Epstein was able to form close relationships with the world's most powerful billionaires and politicians while getting away with raping children. From presidents, prime ministers, CIA officials, and British royalty traveling to Epstein's island to his closest mentor and father of his girlfriend having alleged ties to Israeli intelligence, the disgraced pedophile appears to have been part of a larger organization.
