This is darker than any fiction an author could cook up. The scale of his operation, which went unchallenged for so many years, aided apparently by a lady who recruited other handlers or procurers, was unprecedented. We do hear of gangs of sex traffickers, but usually those are gangs of criminals. This was a gang of sophisticated socialites who routinely did sick stuff and blackmailed the elite of the U.S. and the world to perhaps arm-twist them into paying money, and using influence to silence any attempts to inquire into their crimes.
Thanks to some activists in the U.S., the DoJ has been forced to release the possible evidence of wrong-doing. Funnily, no American other than the lady Maxwell has been arrested, or charged, in spite of a lot of statements which are in the files. Other countries have done slightly better.
No idea when this will end or how, but surely, some more people must be guilty?

To quote Feynman: “Most likely anything that you think of that is possible isn’t true. In fact that’s a general principle in physics theories: no matter what a guy thinks of, it’s almost always false.” Scary.
