I’m sorry Virginia Giuffre isn’t here to see this. It’s not good enough-he should be on trial- but it was the bravery of Virginia that got him here. I hope she’s at peace.

Sandringham is a bit out of sight out of mind though. Hopefully it’s close to the US Air Base they extradite him from.

Their poor family losing both parents within a short time. I know they’re adults and it wasn’t unexpected but it must be devastating.

I thought it was a homeless shelter and was thinking I’d seen offices used for worse. Those workers are idiots.
