Woman Who 'Credibly Accused' Trump of Sex With a Minor Reportedly Had Her Records Removed From Epstein Files
(snip)
TNR reporter Edith Olmsted wrote that A 21-page slideshow buried in the massive trove of Epstein-related documents included allegations that sometime between 1983 and 1985, Trump forced a woman to give him oral sex when she was in her early teens, Olmsted wrote. When the woman bit down on Trumps exposed penis, he allegedly punched her in the head and kicked her out. That same woman told the DOJ that Epstein had introduced her to Trump in 1984.

Justice Department records indicate that the FBI spoke to this woman not once but at least four separate times, according to independent journalists Roger Sollenberger and Nina Burleigh. Now those records appear to have been removed from public viewing despite the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which requires all documents relating to the alleged sex trafficker to be made public.
The report went on to say that Sollenberger found the interview records in a separate database of documents downloaded from the governments public files on Epstein.
The FBI recorded the first interview on August 9, 2019 the day before Epstein was found dead in his jail cell, Olmsted wrote.

Let's put in "girl":

That works even less well because then it's just factually incorrect and harder to repair, given that we usually frame tense with respect to the present. "That same girl, aged 34 years later in 2019, told the DOJ that Epstein..." could be done but that has another problem.
Built into the context is that this is an allegation made in 2019, recalling the past--that this wasn't an allegation made by a girl but by that girl + 34 or so years. Had it been an allegation made by somebody other than the alleger it would have been a lot easier in terms of getting the semantics right. As it is, the "in her early teens" communicates all the denotational info even if the connotational value isn't quite right without making for two problems. (Temporal semantics beyond really simple stuff ... I ran from that at full speed.)
As for the actual 21-slide presentation, we'd want page 18. "NTOC" = National Threat Operations Center, with "tip" or "report" clipped.

I think that is what he is really afraid of becoming public.
And worse - If it does become public, I dont think it will matter one bit to the MAGA faithful. And that includes the Evangelicals.
Justice matters.

(992 posts)On Feb. 27, Bondi made a big, public to-do on Fox News, claiming she and Patel had just been surprised to learn the FBI had thousands of pages of evidence in the Epstein case that they hadnt turned over to her despite the bureaus assurances they had provided all the available documents. She sent a letter to Patel at the time, ordering him to get to the bottom of it, and to deliver a report about his findings in two weeks. We dont know what happened to that report.
The very next day, however, the DOJ returned to Trump troves of sensitive government documents he took with him to Mar-a-Lago upon leaving office in 2021. The White House at the time would not confirm whether Trump took all the documents back, or whether he allowed the government to retain some of them.
A master Epstein evidence manifest shows the government acquired at least four pieces of Epstein evidence in late February and March of last year. The first is dated as acquired on Feb. 27, the day Bondi went public about the additional files and ordered Patel to investigate. The other three are dated March 10, as the DOJ was carrying out its five-alarm, all-hands Epstein files review and, reportedly, scrambling to find and flag all the references to Trump.

Why are all these types of reports always so murky as far as existence and location?
