What scares me is all the people who knew this was going on. Jefferey's friends were sophisticated and connected people. Even the ones who never got in a room with a little girl knew what he was about and did not give a fuck.

I don't see a grand conspiracy. I see a social network of powerful people who are entitled to the bodies of little girls the same way wealth entitles one to to all objects. He got away with so much for so long because it was accepted and allowed. Every heard of 'The Big Club'? We'll, he's in it.
