Citizens of this one. And they can be prosecuted. You just are not comfortable with the fact that they haven't really committed any crimes. Epstein was a billionaire too.

It's far easier for a billionaire to get away with a crime than to prosecute it. You would think that would be common sense, but I guess not.

How many crimes do you think Putin has done? I mean Trump has 33 or 34 felonies on record, does it matter? What about Saudi princes?
