Billionaire Pleads Guilty to Sex Abuse

Billionaire investor Jeffrey Epstein today pleaded guilty to hiring underage girls for erotic massages and sex and will spend 18 months in a Florida county jail on the felony convictions. ( link)

This is the second U.S. billionaire this year I've seen in serious trouble. Not only does he have to do eighteen months of jail - he has to register as a sex offender. I guess you can't always just pay people off like in the old day.s
