But the files raise even more questions about the Presidents association with Epstein particularly about how much he knew and when he knew it as well as his effort to protect the powerful people whose names are listed as suspected co-conspirators in the files.
To be clear, there are two sexual assault allegations involving minor girls who have accused Trump of rape that are part of the public record. Both are referenced in the Epstein files.
(snip)
Trumps handlers at the time denied that [the Katie Johnson allegations] ever happened. But Michael Cohen, who was Trumps fixer right before the election (he paid off porn star Stormy Daniels) has not adequately answered questions about whether he knew about or was involved with the Katie Johnson/Jane Doe case.
While some media outlets have reported her lawsuit was dropped because her allegations were found to be untrue that is not the case. Her story has simply not been proven or disproven. Theres no evidence it was investigated, even though one of her lawyers, Thomas Meagher, filed a report with the FBI in 2016 which was released in the files.

(25,427 posts)The allegations are plausible, given Trump's behavior around females and his attitude of entitlement.
Speaking of Michael Cohen, though, it seems like he could be a source of information about Epstein, considering his close association with Trump for so long and his duties of cleaning up after Trump and covering for him.

(20,692 posts)that Michael Cohen is backing off of his attacks on Trump.
Lev Parnes has been relentlessly attacking Cohen about this - which begs the question, what did Cohen know and when did he know it?

(315 posts)The victims deserve so much more than to be dismissed without a full investigation into what happened. It took unimaginable courage to come forward. People claiming Katie doesn't exist or that her story is fake, do nothing but give cover to known criminals and the corruption they wreak in this country.
