Yet actual child predators often serve 2 years or less in prison :(

Or nothing if you are an elite!

Remember Prince of the Nonces, Randy Andy is only under investigation because of alleging leaking confidential information. Nothing about being a child rapist.

Or all the other Epstein accomplices (minus Maxwell) are getting away for their crimes.

The last time an elite pedophile faced consequences in the UK was when the IRA blew up Mountbetten

And Jimmy Savile. All the BBC knew about it and not one of them bothered to speak up until he was dead.

Last Podcast on the Left is discussing Saville right now and not only did the staff at the BBC know, but also police, reporters, mayors, government administrators and more. Everyone was completely fine with what he was doing just so long as the money and attention kept rolling in.

We're talking about Brittain idiocy right now. Not everything needs to be about how much more idiotic the US is.
