Notorious people are largely unwanted by the time of their death. This isn’t the case with notable individuals. The true story of Jeffrey Epstein is one of inevitable infamy at the right moment. The truth comes out, and people hate you. This happened with the deceased socialite.
However, like many other’s who are perverse, he was disliked to begin with. In London, he didn’t fair highly in the social scales. He was known, but as usual, for all the wrong reasons. People couldn’t investigate him because not all people are investigators.
The fact Epstein had an island meant he was already in flight. This social arrangement makes it difficult for people to find you, regardless of the reason. It’s especially complex for the Police, who then have to file through endless social encounters and occasions to find a strong line of argument.
The mixing in of different personalities and figures always brings out our real opinions. There are those that are just jealous, envious, or tired of their own position in life. There are still others that are fascinated, curious, or enamoured by it in a simple way.
The case of Prince Andrew is difficult because he’s never been a senior Royal except in name only. Her Late Majesty trusted him but didn’t set him up as an example. He’s largely hidden in the shadows, coincidentally where most of this type of scandal happens.
It’s the part of the social order that lives but never really dies. The majority are not involved, but they know about it and have to navigate their way carefully to the right social contacts. This duty of sorts makes it fraught with speculation. It also brings out the liars.
