    Meh. Lemme know when they have evidence of the minors. I have no problem with adults trading money for sex. Sure, he might have lied about it, but that can be explained by the stigmatization of the act by society.

    Don’t get me wrong. I hate the guy. But this is pretty not-so-damning in my mind.

      Her profile showed 17 years old at the time, but something tells me you aren’t actually looking for the proof, because that already exists.

      Maybe that would be true if he was personally paying for sex, but he was paying her to have sex with other men. That muddies the waters alot. There’s an assumption of control since he’s rich and well connected. To me this isn’t much different than what Espsein was doing. Flying girls to islands for sexual favors with business partners.
