The newest release of documents related to the Epstein case has raised a whole bunch of alarming new questions. To me, this scandal is like an onion. The more layers that we peel away, the worse the smell gets. Jeffrey Epstein collected rich and powerful friends like some people collect baseball cards. It appears that Epstein spent most of his time socializing with his rich and powerful friends, and his emails prove that very young girls were often a topic of conversation. But we are supposed to believe that nobody other than Epstein ever abused any of the young girls that were constantly hanging around Epstein's home.

And since Epstein is dead, he certainly can't point a finger at anyone.

Interestingly, one of the newly released documents is a draft statement from the Southern District of New York's U.S. Attorney's Office confirming that Epstein is dead.

The problem is that this draft statement is dated the day before Jeffrey Epstein's dead body was discovered…

Newly released Epstein files include a draft statement attributed to federal prosecutors that is dated the day before Jeffrey Epstein was found dead.

The draft appears among at least 23 documents in the disclosure labeled as statements from the Southern District of New York's U.S. Attorney's Office.

Uh oh.

Someone has some explaining to do.

I would start with U.S. Attorney Geoffrey S. Berman.

What did Berman know, and more importantly, when did he know it?

This appears to be a smoking gun.

So far, I have not heard any reasonable explanation for why this document is dated August 9th.

And there is another huge question that everyone should be asking right now.

Why was "an orange-colored figure" going up the stairs toward "the locked tier housing Epstein's cell at about 10:39 p.m. on Aug. 9, 2019"?…
