Thank you for this gracious response. I am deeply sorry for what you have experienced and wish you as much healing and happiness as life can possibly bring.

I am hesitant to assume that absolutely everyone Epstein associated with knew exactly what was going on, if only because he seems to have known and associated with a huge number of people in a variety of different contexts. In my experience, people who have things to hide often find ways to compartmentalize different parts of their lives so that people who know them in one context may have no idea what they may be up to outside of that particular context. But anyone who DID know and kept their mouth shut is definitely deserving of severe punishment.
