Virginia Roberts Giuffre's book called "NOBODY'S GIRL"
-
I finished reading Virginia Roberts Giuffre's book called "NOBODY'S GIRL" yesterday. It was disturbing, but it is a good way to understand what happened. Virginia's own father started sexually abusing her at 7 years old, then he allowed his friend to abuse her. She ran away and was raped while hitch-hiking, then Ron Eppinger (a pimp) found her, raped her, and made her his prostitute, then Eppinger "gave" her to his friend to continued to abuse her until the police busted him and called Virginia's father.
When she was 16 and working at Mar a Lago, Ghislaine Maxwell recruited her for Jeff Epstein who had sex with her while she was still 16, then for years she was forced to have sex with him (and sometimes Ghislaine Maxwell). He also lent her to his rich and powerful friends for sex (that he recorded). He threatened her brother if she said anything, and he said he owns the police.
She planned her escape by convincing Epstein and Maxwell to allow her to go to Thailand for a massage class as a condition for agreeing to have Epstein's baby (that Maxwell and Epstein would raise). While there, she met and married her Australian husband, then moved to Australia with him. With the help of a photo of herself with Prince Andrew, she was able to finally win against him in court in spite of the emotional toll, financial and physical danger, time, effort, and negative publicity it cost her and her new family to do so.
At the end of the book, she asked, "Where are those videotapes the FBI confiscated from Epstein's houses? And why haven't they led to the prosecution of any more abusers?" It's a good question. She wrote that she avoided naming certain powerful people to avoid their wrath. Our federal "Justice" department could use that evidence to hold them accountable, if Donald Trump would allow it. He told Marjorie Taylor Greene "people would get hurt." I say, let them get hurt. Consequences for crimes (rape, sex trafficking, pedophilia, blackmail) are necessary to discourage them, and no one should be above the law.
