>>> I’M CHRIS JANSING HERE AT MSNBC WORLD HEADQUARTERS IN NEW
YORK.
YORK. WE’LL GO BACK TO STEPHANIE RUHLE
IN ASPEN IN JUST A BIT.
IN LESS THAN TWO HOURS A JUDGE
HERE IN NEW YORK WILL DECIDE
WHETHER REGISTERED SEX OFFENDER
JEFFREY EPSTEIN WILL BE RELEASED
FROM JAIL ON BAIL.
EPSTEIN OF COURSE PLEADING NOT
GUILTY TO CONSPIRACY AND SEX
TRAFFICKING CHARGES THAT WERE
BROUGHT BY THE U.S. ATTORNEY’S
OFFICE IN MANHATTAN.
EARLIER THIS WEEK PROSECUTORS
URGED THE JUDGE TO DENY BAIL FOR
THE 6 #OF-YEAR-OLD, SAYING HE’S
A FLIGHT RISK.
THEY ALSO REVEALED THAT
INVESTIGATORS DISCOVERED A SAFE
IN EPSTEIN’S $56 MILLION
MANHATTAN MANSION, WHICH THEY
SAY CONTAINED PILES OF CASH,
DIAMONDS, AND AN EXPIRED FOREIGN
PASSPORT WITH HIS PICTURE BUT A
DIFFERENT NAME.
DIFFERENT NAME. HIS RESIDENCE, LISTED AS SAUDI
ARABIA.
ARABIA. SINCE THEN WE’VE LEARNED DETAILS
ABOUT THIS VIDEO FROM 1992
SHOWING PRESIDENT TRUMP WITH
EPSTEIN, WATCHING AND COMMENTING
ON WOMEN AT A PARTY IN
MAR-A-LAGO.
MAR-A-LAGO. NFL CHEERLEADERS DANCED AMONG
THE CROWD.
THE CROWD. THE
THE REPRESENTING PALM BEACH WHERE
EPSTEIN RECEIVED THAT
CONTROVERSIAL PLEA DEAL MORE
THAN A DECADE AGO.
OVERSEEN BY SOON TO BE FORMER
LABOR SECRETARY ALEX ACOSTA.
IT IS GOOD TO SEE YOU.
WE HAVE A LOT TO TALK ABOUT.
BACK TO THE ORIGINAL PLEA DEAL.
YOU KNOW THIS WELL.
EPSTEIN SPENT 30 MONTHS IN JAIL
BUT ALLOWED TO LEAVE SIX DAYS A
WEEK ON WORK RELEASE.
WHAT WOULD BE YOUR MESSAGE TO
THE JUDGE WHO IS ABOUT TO DECIDE
ABOUT BAIL FOR EPSTEIN?
>> I THINK MY SENTIMENT IS
SHARED BY MANY.
JEFFREY EPSTEIN SHOULD BE IN
PRISON NOW.
PRISON NOW. HE ALLEGEDLY -- I THINK THERE’S
VERY GOOD EVIDENCE THAT HE
MOLESTED MORE THAN 80 YOUNG
GIRLS.
GIRLS. PROBABLY MANY MORE.
I THINK THAT’S PROBABLY THE TIP
OF THE ICEBERG.
HE SHOULD BE SERVING A LIFETIME
PRISON SENTENCE RIGHT NOW.
I KNOW MAYBE THE JUDGE DOESN’T
TAKE THAT INTO ACCOUNT, BUT
THAT’S MY OPINION.
>> WE’VE LEARNED SEVERAL NEW
DETAILS.
DETAILS. ON MONDAY THERE WAS A BAIL
HEARING, PROSECUTORS TALK ABOUT
THIS, THIS SAFE THAT WAS FOUND
IN EPSTEIN’S MANSION AND IN
ADDITION THE ATTORNEY FOR ONE OF
EPSTEIN’S VICTIMS SAYS DURING
HIS WORK RELEASE WHILE CESC IN
THE COUNTY JAIL, THE SENTENCE HE
GOT AS PART OF THAT DEAL, WOMEN
VISITED EPSTEIN OR FEMALES I
SHOULD SAY VISITED EPSTEIN FOR,
QUOTE, SEXUAL CONTACT.
CONGRESSWOMAN, WHAT DO YOU MAKE
OF THESE NEW ALLEGATIONS?
>> THAT’S NOT ALL.
FIRST, I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU
FOR HAVING ME TODAY.
THAT’S NOT ALL.
I BELIEVE THERE’S EVIDENCE THAT
HE PAID THOUSANDS OF THOUSANDS
OF DOLLARS TO WITNESSES TO KEEP
THEM QUIET.
THEM QUIET. SO THIS WHOLE SITUATION TO ME IS
AN EXAMPLE OF POWER AND MONEY
OVERWHELMING THE JUSTICE SYSTEM.
AND WE HAVE TO GET TO THE BOTTOM
OF IT.
OF IT. THERE’S SO MANY UNANSWERED
QUESTIONS
QUESTIONS QUESTIONS.
QUESTIONS. I THINK WE’RE ALL GRATEFUL THE
PROSECUTORS IN NEW YORK ARE NOW
CHARGING JEFFREY EPSTEIN -- ONCE
AGAIN CHARGING HIM WITH CHILD
MOLESTATION.
MOLESTATION. I KNOW THE COMMUNITY IS ASKING
WHY, WHY DID HE GET THIS DEAL IN
THE FIRST PLACE, THE DEAL IN
FLORIDA, WHY WERE PEOPLE GIVEN
IMMUNITY.
IMMUNITY. I’D LIKE TO KNOW WHO WAS GIVEN
IMMUNITY.
IMMUNITY. WHY WERE VICTIMS NOT TOLD ABOUT
THE PLEA DEAL.
WHY IN THE WORLD DID HE GET SUCH
A LIGHT SENTENCE AND THEN
ALLOWED TO GO ON WORK RELEASE
WHEN NO OTHER SEX OFFENDERS ARE
ALLOWED TO GO ON WORK RELEASE.
LOTS OF UNANSWERED QUESTIONS
THAT THE COMMUNITY IS DEMANDING
ANSWERS TO.
ANSWERS TO. >> AS WE WAIT FOR AN ANSWER ON
BAIL, I DO WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S RALLY IN NORTH
CAROLINA WHERE HE CONTINUED HIS
ATTACKS ON FOUR OF YOUR
COLLEAGUES, FOUR DEMOCRATIC
CONGRESSWOMEN OF COLOR.
HERE IS HOW THE CROWD REACTED.
I WANT TO PLAY THAT.
>> OMAR HAS A HISTORY OF
LAUNCHING VICIOUS ANTISEMITIC
SCREEDS.
SCREEDS. >> SEND HER BACK
SEND HER BACK.
>> SEND HER BACK.
WHAT GOES THROUGH YOUR MIND WHEN
YOU HEAR THAT?
>> WELL, TO ME, YOU KNOW, A LOT
OF WHAT THE PRESIDENT SAID HAS
NOT ONLY BEEN VILE AND BIGOTED,
BUT I THINK HE IS INCITING
VIOLENCE.
VIOLENCE. I HAVEN’T AGREED WITH EVERYTHING
OMAR SAID, I DON’T AGREE WITH
EVERYTHING ALL MY COLLEAGUES
SAY.
SAY. WE HAVE OUR OWN OPINIONS.
SOMETIMES WE VOTE DIFFERENTLY ON
THINGS.
THINGS. BUT THIS IS NOT THE AMERICAN
WAY.
WAY. I AM FEARFUL FOR WHAT THEY CALL
THE SQUAD, I’M FEARFUL FOR THEIR
LIVES.
LIVES. THE PRESIDENT, HE’S NOT ONLY
WITH HIS BIGOTED LANGUAGE
CAUSING CONCERN FOR PEOPLE’S
LIVES, HE’S DISTRACTING
EVERYBODY FROM THE REAL WORK OF
CONGRESS RIGHT NOW.
TODAY WE’RE GOING TO PASS
LEGISLATION TO RAISE THE MINIMUM
