    In the newly unsealed documents, Ms Ransome testified that her unnamed friend “was one of the many girls that had sexual relations with Donald Trump” – including at Epstein’s New York townhouse.

    She then described in graphic detail how Mr Trump allegedly caused pain to the victim’s nipples – and claimed she saw the resulting injury firsthand.

    I mean, it’s not nothing… Far from even.

          [M]y friend had sexual intercourse with Clinton, Prince Andrew and Richard Branson, sex tapes were in fact filmed on each separate occasion…

          And there’s the admission of definite Kompromat on everyone that ever had sex around Epstein.

          Epstein knew where these tapes were hidden and was absolutely imho assassinated for that knowledge.

            In a New Yorker article released in 2019, Ms Ransome said that “she had invented the tapes to draw attention to Epstein’s behavior, and to make him believe that she had ‘evidence that would come out if he harmed me’”.

            I don’t doubt there are tapes, but in this case the same woman already said she lied about the tapes.

              She also maintained, "Jeffrey kept a trove of surveillance on every person who had ever visited his properties”.

                Like I said, I’m sure that is the case. But she’s not credible given she already admitted to lying about her testimony.

                It needs to be independently corroborated.

                You can’t say “oh yeah I lied about that, but promise I’m telling the truth now”.

                    I wouldn’t say every other thing ever. But it certainly brings in reasonable doubt when you’re talking about literally the same exact case.

                    It’s hard to trust someone saying that there are tapes, when they already admitted to making up stories about there being tapes. It’s not like she made up a story about hearing there were tapes. She claimed she personally had the tapes.

                    And again, I would be absolutely confident Epstein did have tapes. It would have been stupid of him not to. But this gals credibility about them is shot.

          It was kind of rhetorical. I don’t actually want to know how he hurt a girl’s nipples badly enough for it to be visible to someone else later on.
