If you look at how the DoJ and FBI handled the failed Epstein investigations years ago, then fast forward to the the Nasser investigation in 2015, then KAVANAUGH in 2018, There is a deep cultural problem with how the Justice Department ignores rape, sex and child trafficking.
That's in spite of the fact that there are federal laws on the books to combat those specific issues. Right now it appears that each time the public becomes aware a a failure, a piecemeal review is done treating each incident as a standalone situation with no depth or results.
The reality is the lack of seriousness that the DoJ and FBI apply to those investigations IS as big a problem as the rapes and trafficking itself. It's a deep, systemic, cultural problem, and it requires a deep root cause analysis - and criminal charges for officials - to fix it.
The result of not examining the department bit by bit is the commission of new sets of crimes by the law enforcement entity itself that completely revictimizes the victims while cheating the public.
Anyone who believes that the DoJ and FBI can or will seriously examine and police itself in these matters, is at best not serious or, at worse, complicit in the systemic failure.
So since they won't fix it themselves, who can, should, and most importantly WILL?
Just a thought.
