The
Jeffrey Epstein saga has once again reached the highest levels of American politics, with former President George W. Bush becoming linked to questions surrounding the pedophile’s controversial treatment by the justice system.A new report by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Julie K. Brown, published in the Miami Herald, suggests that senior officials within Bush’s Department of Justice (DOJ) may have played a role in decisions that allowed Epstein to avoid more serious federal prosecution in the mid-2000s.The report centres on Michael Reiter, the former Palm Beach police chief who launched the first major criminal investigation into Epstein. Reiter and his team spent months gathering evidence.
