15. Correct-amundo! I believe one lawyer was getting the victims together on a class action suit against Epstein

It took a lot of footwork rounding up victims and convincing them to come in it.

But Alex Acosta beat the class-action lawyer by keeping his deal hush-hush until it was actually done with the judge and with Epstein. So no other victims except Virginia Roberts and maybe one other, were mentioned on the case. I seem to recall that even Ghislaine Maxwell was left out of it, because Epstein wanted to protect her too.

That's why the judge was lenient, he had no idea how big this was. Acosta made sure of that.
