So you would seek to gather evidence from the victim, while their abuser is in the room with athority over them?

First port of call is separating and investigating.

Nobody has said that except you.

So, you're investigating Epstein allegations, and you think Epstein himself is in the room for every interview..?

Guess you didn't appreciate the implication of what YOU were suggesting.

Holy goldfish memory, Batman. I'm quoting you.

And you need to consider that in context, I wasn't saying that in every case that the abuser could be present. I was saying in the context of child abuse victims being interviewed alone, which I think is a valid process given otherwise their abuser could be in the room with them taking charge of their interview or statements.

Being able to quote something doesnt mean you csn comprehend it, or follow the thread in simple terms.
