A try to 'stop the snowball in its tracks' now approach seems more likely then GM is some major asset. I also suspect that as a matter of law, with epstein unconvicted and dead, it's aint that easy to win - our laywers here may have a better view on that.
seems he got a lot from Lerner.
other theories are that he was tied up intelligence CIA FBI Mossad Saudis. one of the abused girls said he had passports from all those countries and a few others. Im sure a blackmail scheme pays well.
also he coulda gotten a lot from Maxwell. her daddy died but he stole a ton of money, where did it go? and one of the bombshells from this Maxwell trial is that they knew each other way earlier than initially thought. some think that Maxwell was like his handler and she was using him for the laundering.
or maybe, as Monteroy snarkily asserts, they were just lone wolf kid diddlers who just happened to hang out with all the rich and powerful and keep binders of pictures and cds of people having sex. maybe a guy with no discernable skill
or background just happened to build an empire by doing pretty much nothing.
