Epstein Victim Maria Farmer Vindicated After Latest Epstein Files Dump
The Trump Administration violated the Federal law today that Trump signed earlier this month to produce all of the Epstein files that are in their possession. They did release some of them, but as expected, most of them were files that are already in the public, or heavily redacted. The fact that they were not releasing everything they had and were breaking the law was quickly noted by Democrats, as well as Republican Thomas Massie, who was a co-author of the law. They are allegedly exploring legal options, which could include some impeachments. In spite of the fact that not much new was revealed (photos of Michael Jackson and Mick Jagger with Epstein appeared to be new material), the New York Times was able to identify one of the victims, Maria Farmer, in a report stamped with the date of Sept. 3, 1996. Maria Farmer has for years said that she had called federal investigators in the summer of 1996, but the F.B.I. had never publicly acknowledged her original report, even to Ms. Farmer. Some people following the Epstein case had accused her of inventing the story. After the release of thousands of Epstein files on Friday, The New York Times contacted Ms. Farmer about a report stamped with the date of Sept. 3, 1996. She broke down in tears. “I’ve waited 30 years,” she said. “I can’t believe it. They can’t call me a liar anymore.” Ms. Farmer said she was grateful to be “vindicated” but heartbroken that the F.B.I. did not take steps to stop Mr. Epstein until years after her report.
