Ellie, thank you so much for reading from this devastating journal by this intelligent and brave human. I’m so angry for her and the others and for all of us. How could Bill Barr, who had access to these files, not have prosecuted all those involved? Oh - we must know. Could it have anything to do with his own father? Or himself? The disease of abuse is inter-generational and so gross. And the hypocrisy. Well, we can now clearly see the hypocrisy. But why does it take so much to see evil? I suppose because it just so gross that most of don’t want to see it. This epic tragedy may be as old as time, but it is NOW that it must end.

Such a moving document. I have been following the Epstein files and survivors for several years and contributed funds and support when I can but this reading and her story added a major new level of evil horror. Thankyou for your strength in reading it and I am sharing the link and recommendation to everyone I know. Evil billionaires feel immune and too many are sociopaths who enjoy forcing and harming to feel powerful. Nobody stops them.

Thank you so much, Ellie. It’s just heartbreaking to hear her thoughts and experiences. Just horrific. She’s crying out-loud in a silent movie that removes her soul to that of her slave masters. Just so heartbreaking.

Wish I could post my painting here that I created that was inspired by this Diary. I took photo's of the pages and cut out many of the words, and placed them on the painting. In the center is one of the survivors with their mouth redacted. One can find it on myu substack page. I am deeply grateful to Ellie for decoding this diary! This is such a typical 16 yr old diary, it makes it so clear, just how young these girls were.
