The women whom Jeffrey Epstein abused demand to be heard. And their voices " long suppressed, but now emerging powerfully and with courage " could further fuel the maelstrom around President Donald Trump and aides who dig the scandal deeper each time they try to end it. These are women who've been let down for years, at multiple levels, by a government that was supposed to keep them safe. Their families are victims, too, since abuse sows trauma through generations.
[H]ardly anyone at the White House ever mentions the young women whom Epstein used and abused.
"What they really need is for it to go away," Sky Roberts, the brother of one of Epstein's most prominent victims, Virginia Giuffre, told CNN's Erin Burnett on Thursday.
"There's a lack of transparency here and what we are not hearing is ... we are not hearing the survivors' voices coming through," Roberts said. "This is a human issue, and I think we need to bring that back because we are dehumanizing survivors by not bringing justice forward." Giuffre took her own life in Australia, where she lived, earlier this year.
