#4  Comey, the father had a history of being a fixer for the Clinton Crime family.

Maxwell will likely receive a large payoff for keeping her mouth shut and threatened with going the way of Epstein or disappearing.

#3  This isn't a trial. It's a whitewash. They will go just enough for Jeopardy to attach and then declare her innocent or a mistrial or something. Then she can never be charged again.

#1  Judge Nathan has granted Ghislaine Maxwell's request that evidence in the trial be redacted to hide 'sensational and impure' information.

Any Comey's daughter is on the prosecutorial team?

Is the fix in?
