Publisher's Synopsis
Updated October 2020 to include the travesty of justice in the case of Jeffrey Epstein; It also takes a brief look at Ghislaine Maxwell. Probably the most talked about woman in prison currently awaiting trial for sexually abusing minor girls. CELEBRITIES-GOT AWAY WITH RAPE?The famous, rich, and powerful without doubt get perks the rest of us ordinary mortals do not: preferential treatment and access to things and lifestyles we can only imagine. Being famous and rich tends to make some of them feel beyond the law of the common person- almost invincible and assume "whatever trouble they get into their wealth, fame or power can get them out of it." Celebrities and the rich can afford the best attorneys and the best possible chance at justice that money can buy. From musicians to athletes, politicians, actors and beyond, some very well-known people in the public eye have committed sexual atrocities. The crimes range from rape to engaging in sex with underage girls-statutory rape-to indecent assault such as groping. But does being rich or famous help you get away with rape? It unquestionably shouldn't do. But in the cases outlined in this book, it certainly appears to help.
