Child predators rarely get slowed down. Here’s an exception.

A recent week-long undercover operation in Marion County, Florida targeted child sex predators and resulted in the arrest of 58 men.  Check out this press conference:

Thanks to a reader.

Also, Colin Browen’s recent YouTube video in The Conspiracy Files covers Clarence Osborne, a prolific pedophile from Australia (1960s, 1970s).  There are links, of course, to infamous Michigan high priest pedophile Frank Shelden and other organized pedophile rings from that era.

I was trying to find something in the meager N. Fox/Frank Shelden FOIA documents I have and was once again struck by how many months it took to get arrest warrants for Frank Shelden and his co-conspirator and fellow pedophile rapist Dyer Grossman (noted in the files as a “bi-ped”–boys or girls).  Five months to get arrest warrants when the record clearly reflected these were men of means who could flee to literally anywhere in the world.

File notes from the MSP file reflect that St. Clair County Prosecutor Peter Deegan would defer acting for months due to his trial load.  He kept blowing the MSP off.  The Washtenaw County prosecutor (Ann Arbor) would not act until St. Clair County did.  Shelden and Grossman of course fled justice and continued their crimes against children for many decades.  Shelden and Grossman could have been stopped, or at least slowed down, in the summer of 1976.  Instead, they never answered for a single crime, in part due to a “heavy trial load.”

The man who was concerned that coconspirator Gerald Richards be on call to destroy files and documents at his residence to save his parents any embarrassment, went on to rape children around the world for many years.  Michigan helped inflict this man on god knows how many young boys.  There was no Sheriff Billy Woods calling this POS out.  Swept under the rug because Michigan scions would never be involved in child rape or CSAM, right?

Aurora police make true-crime podcast to catch Chelsea Yasser’s killer

The Aurora Police Department’s “The White Whale — The Chelsea Yasser Story” podcast is intentionally framed to feel like a true-crime show and solicit tips, said Joe Moylan, spokesman for the department. Interesting.

Last summer

Last summer the lazy and false campaign promises to “release the Epstein files” got real after a series of administration miscalculations, public missteps and an article in The Wall Street Journal.  The “birthday book” compiled for Epstein’s 50th birthday by his coconspirator Maxwell,  containing many crude messages from his high roller friends, was released.

A Congressional subpoena served on Epstein’s estate and a call for Maxwell to testify before Congress, among other circumstances, resulted in a private tete-a-tete in Florida between Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche and convicted sex offender, human trafficker, pedophile and perjurer Maxwell, who was serving a 20-year prison sentence in Florida.

Immediately thereafter, Maxwell was transferred to Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas.  This is in express contradiction of Bureau of Prison policies mandating that convicted sex offenders—especially those with more than a decade left on a 20-year sentence—are explicitly ineligible to serve time at a minimum-security “camp” facility.

Today The New York Times Magazine has an article describing the panic engulfing the White House over all things Epstein last summer.  It is delicious, if ultimately and sadly, of no real consequence.

While eye-opening, unfortunately none of the panic and missteps resulted in full compliance with the later enacted Epstein Transparency Act, a law crafted to explicitly deal with duplicitious DOJ and FBI employees and their bosses, as well as anyone who would attempt to protect predators named in the files.  Only half of the documents have been released.  The survivors’ names were supposed to be redacted, but it was too tempting for DOJ not to out some of them and subject them to inevitable death threats.

Last summer.  When we weren’t at war with Iran, gas and fuel prices were stable, and groceries and food prices didn’t continually suck.  That’s a lot of tail-wagging-the-dog in 11 months.   Birthday book?!  Who cares?

Poor old sex offender Maxwell has to wait for her pardon until the heat is off, but at least she gets take-out, yoga and a dog in the meantime.  I have no doubt that pardon or commutation is signed and sitting in a drawer in the off chance somebody doesn’t make it to 2028.

Former criminal defense attorney to the president, Todd Blanche, is now poised to be confirmed as the Attorney General.  Take another listen/read to/of the above links and consider how that’s going to work.
