You're making the distinction between the age of the girls when they were recruited for Epstein's "private stock" and when they were turned over to the other men who may be involved.
The distinction is that Epstein himself was only interested in girls under 18. Most of the recruits were around 15 or 16. Many were high school dropouts and runaways. Once they reached 18, he kept them in his "group" by giving them money or paying their tuition etc. But they were expected to be part of the scenery at his parties in one way or another, and they could say "no" whenever they wanted to. So Epstein wasn't actually pimping the girls per se, he was bringing them in as eye candy, and enabling the men to meet them and take it from there.
If that's what you are saying, I think I agree ... for the most part. A girl who worked for Epstein and stayed around for 2 or more years would have aged out anyway. At that point the older girls were encouraged to recruit younger girls for Epstein, or else they could be enterprising and find a sugar daddy on their own. Those girls who stayed were already buying into the whole thing, plus they had reached the age of consent in most cases.
Perhaps the feds are looking at it this with an extremely narrow definition of "rape," "consent," and "trafficking," in which case they can hold their noses and say nothing was there.
My own opinion is that Bill Barr probably removed anything that incriminated Chump as soon as he got his hands on Epstein's evidence. But there's so much to go through that he could have missed a lot too. Don't forget that Barr wanted to resign as soon as Chump lost the election in 2020. He'd already had over a year to paw through Epstein's documents, and he was probably disgusted as anyone would have been.
