Reply to comment by dkran in Women sue Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan over Epstein ties | Women who have accused Jeffrey Epstein of sexual abuse filed lawsuits against Deutsche Bank AG and JPMorgan Chase & Co on Thursday, alleging the banks financially benefited from the late financier's alleged sex trafficking oper by Blood__Rivers

It was a civil trial, not a criminal one.

The only outcome if she had won, was that she got the money.

Why the heck shouldn't she accept the payment if they were offering her what she was going to win in damages?

Why is that so hard to understand? People act like she took a bribe.

A civil trial can become criminal if criminal wrongdoing can be proved within statute of limitations. He was ordered to testify.

Sure it can. But that was never going to happen in this particular trial. Everyone involved knew that from the start, including Virginia Giuffries.

Even if Andrew had testified it wouldn't have mattered, it not being a criminal trial their is no chance of perjury charges even if he was proven to be lying.

Unfortunately everything they could prove he'd done, simply wasn't illegal either in New York or in Britain.
