“… It is unclear why the materials are missing. The Justice Department said in a statement to The Times on Monday that “the only materials that have been withheld were either privileged or duplicates.” In a new statement on Tuesday, the department also noted that documents could have been withheld because of “an ongoing federal investigation.”

Officials did not directly address why the memos related to the woman’s claim were not released.

… Under the law, the Justice Department can redact material that could be used to identify Mr. Epstein’s victims, depicted violence or child sexual abuse, or would hurt a continuing federal investigation. But the law expressly prohibited federal officials from withholding or redacting materials “on the basis of embarrassment, reputational harm or political sensitivity” to public figures…”

It's unclear why they're missing.

Just a reminder that Franken and the woman previously were joking around during the performance for the soldiers in the audience. At one point she grabbed Franken's ass and the audience broke out in laughter.

I understand the point you are making, but I grew-up with and continue to know people whom I believe possess and exhibit both simple common decency and simple common sense.
