 I believe the last senior royal to get himself arrested was Charles I. And we all know how that ended.....

Misconduct in a public office seems to be a pretty open-ended charge- covering everything from getting the tax payer to fund your use of sex workers to disclosing sensitive information to unauthorised persons....

Elsewhere Les Wexner was being deposed by Congress. He's a funny little old man by now, a cuddly grandpa, and he was being more voluble than his attorney/minder liked. At one point the attorney leaned in and whispered "I will fucking kill you if you answer another question with more than five words".....

 Satanism is also one of the Abrahamic religions- its mythology derived from Judaism, Christianity and Islam with more a dash of Milton. Could it be suffering- as its cousins are- from the quiet rebellion of the young against organised religion? 

Satanism, huh? Robes, chanting, sacrifice- that's what our parents did.....

I ask because, having watched Wexner bumble through the hearing yesterday, I found myself wondering where all the young people are. Even Andrew, who represents the younger end of the Epstein class, is already 66. 

Which leads to the happy thought that if the courts don't put a stop to their carryings-on pretty damn soon the reaper will- and then one way or another they'll all be gone.
