A press conference occurred on a bright early autumn day as breathable air returned to the nation's capital. Representatives Ro Khanna, Thomas Massie, and Marjorie Taylor Greene joined in an unusual coalition. Marina Lacerda identified herself as Minor Victim One in the 2019 federal indictment of Jeffrey Epstein in New York. Lacerda and other women described enduring incomprehensible injuries as young girls and demanded to know what evidence the government gathered in their names and at taxpayers' expense. Lacerda said persistent memory gaps and trauma hinder healing and that government-held documents seized from Epstein's house could help her remember and begin to heal.
"My name is Marina Lacerda," one woman said, "I was Minor Victim One in federal indictment of Jeffrey Epstein in New York in 2019." With that simple introduction, all the persiflage and evasions and total bullshit surrounding the so-called Epstein Files fell away and all that was left was a group of women, subjected to incomprehensible injuries as young girls, demanding to know what evidence their government gathered in their names and at their expense as taxpayers.
"There are many pieces of my story that I can't remember, no matter how hard I try. The constant state of wonder causes me so much fear and so much confusion. My therapist says that my brain is just trying to protect myself. But it's so hard to heal knowing that there are people out there who know more about my abuse than I do."
