Plaskett, a non-voting Democrat Delegate who represents the US Virgin Islands, took to the House floor to defend herself.
Stacey Plaskett claimed that she did not know Epstein was under federal investigation at the time she was communicating with him back in 2019.
“I got a text from Jeffrey Epstein, who at the time was my constituent. It was not public knowledge at that time that he was under federal investigation,” she said.
What about the time Epstein was charged in 2008, he pleaded guilty to procuring a child for prostitution and served 13 months in jail. As a federal official from Virgin Islands, where Epstein Island was located, shouldn't you have refrained from taking money from him and engaging in series of personal text messages from a pedophile?
This ridiculous attempt to defend herself only makes her look worse.
Yup, she should have known better.
