just became aware of how many violations of the law there were in terms of victims' names coming out.
As you mentioned, nude photos of girls or young women.
It's really disgusting.
Honestly, at this point, it's hard not to wonder if this is intentional in some way.
It feels like weaponized incompetence.
If you see some of these documents where there will be a list of 50 names and one is redacted,
You know, there's just no explanation for how it could have been done so poorly.
They've had victims' names for a very long time.
I don't think this is just about rushing to get this information out.
It feels like they want us to give up on transparency, and it's extremely problematic how they've gone about doing this.
I think a lot of people are feeling a bit at a loss of how to best proceed because it is beyond what any of us had worried about.
But what I do feel clear about is the fact that we still believe transparency is important and we're not giving up on demanding that the law be followed.
Yes, I think a couple things.
One, that victims have been speaking out for a long time and have been, you know, naming names.
And that, you know, there's clear evidence of very consistent reports over time.
But what is not clear is what was done to investigate.
You know, I think we see that there was a very strong case in, you know, 2006 that was, you know, the feds were trying to put together.
And we know, obviously, with that sweetheart deal.
It didn't unfold the way anyone believes it should have.
But even after that, you can see records of people sharing information.
