Terms associated with Little St. James, Epstein’s Island: sex offender, paedophile, sex trafficking, child abuse, sexual servitude, child prostitution, procurement of a minor for prostitution
How does one get to Epstein Island?
A December 6, 2023 article in The Independent (originally published in 2021 and updated) states,
Guests would arrive on one of Epstein’s Gulfstream jets at Cyril E King Airport on St Thomas, in a private area separate from the main runway. They would then be shuttled to Little St James on one of Epstein’s black helicopters.
It also appears some guests were “ferried over in groups aboard a 38-foot boat called the Lady Ghislaine.”
A picture has emerged of Little St James essentially being a prison from which you could not escape or communicate with the outside world. Epstein purchased a larger, nearby island named Great St. James in 2016 to help shield his activities.
Law enforcement found it challenging to monitor a “registered sex offender” who lived on his own private island and denied them access to the island. Meanwhile locals assumed law enforcement was doing its job.
A few of the high profile people who visited the island are listed in this article. I’ve seen a video of lists of people. Think every big name actor or actress, politicians, heads of government, the wealthy of the wealthy. These were either participants or they looked the other way. What is so amazing is that everyone was silent and still is not speaking.
Let’s think for a moment about how you got to Epstein Island. First of all, you were invited. Or you went with someone who was invited.
We don’t hop on a plane without a thought. No. When we take a flight we make a plan, in advance. We pack our luggage because we are going to stay overnight. We find a babysitter, or a dog sitter. We take time off work. We make arrangements, in advance. We anticipate this trip. We know where we are going and mostly what to expect when we get there. We know how long we intend to stay and what it will cost.
These people knew each other. They travelled together. They vacationed on the same island. They kept each others’ secrets. For years. Staff on the island was required to sign a confidentiality agreement.
You would tell your friends, “I am going to the private island of a convicted sex offender.” Or not.
What troubles me is this paragraph in a news report regarding the upcoming release of the names of some 200 people on the list of guests to the Epstein Island:
However, the release is not likely going to be the bombshell some people are claiming it will be. According to the story from the AP, the judge's rationale for ordering the unsealing was that most of the names were already public knowledge outside of the official court record.
In other words, “Nothing to see here. Let’s move on.”
