That's not what it is about. It is about the story at a certain point of time in the past. Nobody is assuming Epsteins innocence today.

At point in time in the story Epstein had already pled guilty to solicitation of a minor for prostitution as part of a sweetheart plea agreement avoiding sex trafficking charges. This was a well known fact. Noone should have been assuming his innocence then.
