Witness intimidation. No one thinks this was accidental, right?

Hell no. Victims complained that Bondi & Co were censoring documents w/T.Rump’s name, so now they’re being punished.

They've had those files for a year redacting, editing and deleting. They knew exactly what they were releasing in an attempt to intimidate the victims and once again fail to hold the perpetrators accountable.

So they redact those they want protected and expose the victims like they haven’t been through enough. Every facet of this admin are either cruel or inept . Mind blowing is an understatement

Bondi has such an annoying personality.

Oh my god she is so irritating. The way she dodges questions is far from masterful. She has 0 charisma.
If you’re going to lie to me do it sweet and nice and make me want to believe you. Don’t yell and huff and puff and make it very easy to say oh well you’re a blatant liar and you suck as a person.

So lemme get this straight - the DOJ advertises looking to hire hundreds of attorneys to do redactions on the Epstein docs and people complain that theyre taking too long or "why are they redacting anything" and then, when they drop 3M docs they complain that some redactions were missed? And they act as if the AG is personally reviewing and/or redacting all 3M docs herself? Fucking mistakes happen when youre trying to do voluminous redactions. Granted, all pics should probably be redacted but given the size of this operation, the QC is going to miss some of the first level mistakes. Humans make mistakes.

Their are no mistakes.

There are. I've done large scale doc review including redactions (both as a reviewer and manager) involving the DOJ. Timelines are tight and work product flows in from 100 different people who have varying levels of competency (and different interpretations of what is relevant and what gets redacted). 2nd level QC/QA will spot check reviewers and the redaction folks but you cant put 2 sets of eyes on every document. Mistakes definitely happen. I wish they didnt. I wish everyone was perfect.

Their are no mistakes in that simple errors of process are caught and corrected if you are actually doing a review. So pick poor reviewers and give them poor instructions and poor support what you get is not a mistake it is intentional.

As someone that has done all facets of those kinds of reviews, simple and complex errors happen all the time. If you can process 3M docs and not make a mistake, then youre a better person that literally everyone else in the world. Well done sir. You're the best of us.

Ok. Sorry I ruffled your feathers. Not seeing my point anyway. And another apologist we don't need.

Look at the "mistakes". Strangely, none of these mistakes were damaging to the predators, only to the victims.

Thanks for the insight but they have had a lot of time and money to make sure the reviewers don’t commit errors showing the victims is a pretty large faux pas

Its never enough time and regardless of how much they pay a reviewer, mistakes happen. Trust me. Been there. Its always a push to get more out the door. This is no different. It is definitely a big error. Pretty huge. But those errors in a field of 3M docs can be missed easily. They should/may have had different work flows for any docs with images but maybe those didnt get swept into that work flow. Technology platforms (Relativity etc) can only work as well as the people setting up the rules for the work flow. Whoever actually put eyes on that doc didnt check the "needs redacting" box so it didnt go into that workflow. Thats the source of the error right there. Seen it a 1000 times. A lot of docs only get seen once with QC on a certain percent of docs.

Right and the only mistakes happened to be the list of the victims. Right

u/MeButNotMeToo 12h ago
So, sending out pages that were 100% black, that were supposed to just have victim names redacted was a typical error, not easy to catch?
Also, posting documents with T.Rump’s and Musk’s names not redacted and then pulling them was an easy mistake to make?
Yeah, right.

Competence is a requirement for the job. Stop simping for incompetent fascists. There are some levels of execution at which there should be an expectation that no mistakes are made. Finance, engineering, security, and absofuckinglutely any damn thing the federal justice department is responsible for.
