Probably because Epstein thought he was in the clear after his sweetheart non-prosecution agreement.

Let's be very clear here: anyone trying to distance themselves from him now isn't doing it out of principle, as numerous allegations against him have been rumored for many years. They're doing it for self-preservation.

There weren't rumors, there were convictions, a jail sentence, and numerous known victims.
