Because mostly the Miami Herald kept digging at him for a long time. Then they found out that victim families from his original crime were never aloud to have any say in his sentencing, in fact they were not even told of his sentence that was kept private.. They wrote a story on that and it all snowballed from there.
The story of course gained traction because Acosta was right in the middle of this sweetheart deal and was at the time a member of Trump's cabinet.. The Security of labor until he just resigned. Adding fuel to that fire is the week before it all broke lose Acosta was trying to cut funding to the office that investigates child sex cases by 90%..
All this made a perfect storm of outrage that finally forced them to take Epstein down..
Basically the Trump effect.. set up the perfect storm to finally take this guy down.. IE yet another corrupt member in Trump's cabinet which is what helped shine light again on Epstein..
So yes Grapesoda a child rapist was taken down because everyone hates Trump and because Trump surrounds himself with bad people...
