2. Ask Foreign Intelligence Agencies

I wonder if there may be some backchannel or liaison with foreign agencies to cross-check whatever information Mace is able to get from CIA. And if they stonewall or give disinformation, it may be discussed in intel committee hearings. It is widely known that honeypot sex traps are common tools of most spy agencies to provide leverage over their targets. And if Epstein was working as a cut-out providing such services for them, he probably felt he was protected by them because of this. His first arrest in Florida was brushed aside by strange legal maneuvers resulting in a slap on the wrist. US Attorney Alex Acosta reportedly said he was told to back off because he (Epstein) "belonged to intelligence." But the increasingly revealed sex scandals associated with him brought too much heat to the operation so perhaps the agency decided to cover their tracks and terminate his contract-- "with extreme prejudice." And they made it look like suicide. It doesn't seem to matter to them when they can only offer such an implausible deniability.
