A little late to the fire started earlier this month by unrivaled indie journo Roger Sollenberger, the New York Times on Wednesday nevertheless dove into the gap the Justice Department left in the Epstein files database about the FBI’s interviews with “Jane Doe 4,” a survivor of the evil pimp’s sex trafficking and abuses who in 2019 was interviewed at least four times by the FBI after she claimed she had bit the Orange God Emperor’s undersized penis and then was punched during a forced sexual encounter sometime in the early/mid-1980s when she was about 14 years old.
The Gray Lady even put a BREAKING in red letters on the home page for the story on ground well-trodden by Sollenberger and then NPR on Tuesday, who determined that all of the relevant documents have sequential serial numbers and that sequence revealed the gap. One thing that the Times clarifies is that it’s not known if JD4 definitely received a settlement from a 2019 settlement against Epstein’s estate, but other than that it does not seem they’re adding much to the picture.
Still, just by picking it up and putting it on the home page the paper is giving what had previously been a weirdly low-key and even “BlueAnon”-ish angle to the Trump-Epstein shitshow some legs.
