Was Alex Acosta Forced into Giving Jeffrey Epstein a Light Sentence due to Deep State Corruption?

Actually, Acosta was the 2nd prosecutor to be given the case. The first refused to press charges altogether:



If people wish to play their childish Gotcha games here, then here you go. Play your hearts out.

PS Tres - don't bellyache about the source, unless you can prove her wrong :)

From Krischer himself. You have to prove him wrong. Ann Coulter wasn't there or involved in any of it.

Read the link. His story contradicts Acosta's. Please don't ask me to translate his story for you. You can read it for yourself.

But you told me that 'I have to prove Krischer is wrong'. I'm asking you to tell me what part of Krischer's story contradicts Acosta's. Here, I'll save you the trouble of reading your own story, and we'll get right down to brass tacks-

"Palm Beach Police who worked the case at the time told the Miami Herald as part of an investigation published in November that they felt pressured by Krischer to downgrade Epstein's case to a misdemeanor, or drop it entirely."

This fact has been known for a long time tres, and its IN THE ARTICLE you supplied. Anyone who has been following the case knows that police officers from Palm Beach county were complaining 10 years ago about the miscarriage of justice in the Epstein deal, and their complaints centered around Krischer.

The whole claim Krischer made. Prove him wrong. Ann Coulter is a political pundit who wasn't in Palm Beach during the entire Epstein fiasco. Krischer was, and he contradicted Acosta. So prove him wrong.

I don't know any police officers in Palm Beach. You posted a link to Ann Coulter's words. Was she a police officer in Palm Beach 10 years ago?
 
Was Alex Acosta Forced into Giving Jeffrey Epstein a Light Sentence due to Deep State Corruption?

Along with the poll question, here are a few more questions to think about:
Why haven't we heard more about Acosta's explanation for why he let Epstein off so easy?

If Acosta was telling the truth, which intelligence agency was Epstein an operative, or asset of? Foreign, or domestic?

Forced? I don't think so. Acosta seems to have been between a rock and a hard place in the Epstein criminal matter with even the left wing media acknowledging the extenuating circumstances:

--Epstein had already negotiated a deal in state court where he would serve no jail time and didn’t have to register as a sex offender, so a harsher punishment than what he ultimately received was a tough sell.

--Witnesses wouldn’t cooperate.

--And then there was the legion of high-powered defense attorneys on Epstein’s payroll, who Acosta said never played fair, pried into the private lives of the accusers and individual prosecutors alike and routinely used their connections in Washington to go over his head. . .​

So the truth may be impossible to ascertain. Maybe Acosta cut the best deal he could get to prosecute Epstein given the variables and uncertainties of the judge and jury process--the deal was a certain outcome. A trial was by no means certain.

Critics of Acosta say that he had a better than average chance to get a conviction and much more severe penalty that Epstein deserved. So if that was actually the case, Acosta could definitely be criticized for timidity and copping out.

Or there was a 'deep state' deal in the works that does not seem very likely.

The truth is likely elusive.

Acosta brought some formidable credentials and talent to the Labor Department and it is a shame he is voluntarily choosing to be forced out. I wonder if the venom and attack press against him had as much to do with him being Hispanic, and therefore an off-the-reservation heretic, rather than any moral outrage over that 12-year-old case.
 
That's definitely a possibility, and they're probably hoping people will lose interest, in light of the fact that Epstein's black book of house guests contains mostly Dems, Hollywood and entertainment figures, and a former two term Democratic President.



Me too, and the hearings should be made public, and under oath.

I wouldn't give the View a second thought dude. Those ladies may know about Hollywood or whatever, but when it comes to politics, they make my ears bleed :lol:

Oh, I agree that they're all political hacks who exist to promote the anti-Trump narrative. In my book they're only significant as pawns being moved by their corporate controllers.

Today, as if to support Shapiro's theory, they aired a clip of Trump socializing with Epstein. Epstein's association with Clinton was mentioned but no one bothered to show clips of that association. Clearly the puppet masters are thirsting to find some way to link Trump to this child molester, but as you say, without embarrassing the Democrat Party.

I read at least one of Krischer's responses to the Acosta accusation, but he really didn't say anything beyond, "No, I did a great job; it's all on Acosta."

What did you read that leads you to believe him veracious?
