New Information Is Feeding Epstein Conspiracy Theories

First, let me be clear: There was an Epstein conspiracy. He and Ghislaine Maxwell did traffic children. And plenty of well-connected people were aware of multiple aspects of Epstein’s behavior and crimes. While a lot of additional information about Epstein has been released in the last few months, the new information isn’t decreasing the level of conspiracy theorizing. Instead, Epstein conspiracy theories are growing and multiplying. The new information isn’t water putting out the conspiracy fires. Instead it is more like adding gasoline to the conspiracy theory fire.
