    Not sure how true this is given:

    Anyone who did not successfully fight to keep their name out of the civil case could see their name become public – including Epstein’s victims, co-conspirators and innocent associates.

    I imagine anyone who was innocent and an associate had the money to hire the right lawyers to remove themselves.

    I also imagine those who should be on it, also won’t be.

      Epstein was incredibly well connected, so this statement is dubious at best.

      I also imagine those who should be on it, also won’t be.

      This is correct. 0% of people “associated” with Epstein have any evidence against them of his crimes, or they’d have been charged as co-conspirators.
