Topic250,000 Bikers to Defy Common Sense for Nine Days at Sturgis Rally

Friday is the official start of the 80th annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, where 250,000 people are expected to gather in the South Dakota town of that name for nine days of defying proven precautions against the spread of COVID-19.
Nobody is social distancing and none of them are wearing masks, local psychologist Michael Fellner told The Daily Beast. None.
Fellner is originally from Brooklyn in New York City, which was once the nations COVID-19 epicenter but has just reported three straight days without a single death from the virus. The transformation is almost certainly the result of the same precautions the bikers in Sturgis are ignoring.
The Sturgis Rallys own official website has a COVID tracker tab that links to the South Dakota Health Department site, where offerings include a risk assessment for public gatherings.
Highest risk: Large, in-person gatherings where it is difficult for individuals to remain spaced at least 6 feet apart and attendees travel from multiple areas, it advises.
As the rallys Facebook page attests, the bikers come from across the country.
Leaving from NH today. See ya soon! posted Howard Saborn of New Hampshire.
Coming for the 1st time on Saturday from Virginia, Vickie Farmer announced.
On our way now. Stopped in Missouri to sleep. Be there Thursday night, Jesse Robison of Georgia posted.
Be there Friday from San Angelo Tx., David Buckner said.
On my way I aint scared of the media flue or as we call it round here election flue see ya soon sd, J.F. Watson of Ohio said.
Just call it a big protest !! And it be A-Ok!! J. Toothman, also of Ohio, suggested.
Rod Florquest of Wyoming was among the thousands who had arrived early.
You really have to look to see someone wearing a mask, he reported, as though this was a good thing.
And, having come from seemingly everywhere with whatever virus they might happen to carry, they will all mingle and return home with any virus they happen to pick up. Some will have purchased one of the souvenir T-shirts that retired school counselor Linda Chaplin of Sturgis saw a street vendor selling. The front reads:
Screw COVID-19, I came to Sturgis

TopicUnderage girl forced to have sex with Prince Andrew, US court document claims

The sex offender Jeffrey Epstein allegedly tried to gather incriminating material against Prince Andrew by forcing an underage girl to have sex with him, according to newly released court documents.
The papers released by a court in New York say the alleged encounter took place on the late US financiers private island in the US Virgin Islands. A document claims Epstein instructed the girl, referred to as Jane Doe #3, but known to be Virginia Roberts Giuffre, to give the prince whatever he demanded and report back to him on the details of the sexual abuse.
Epstein allegedly sexually trafficked the girl to powerful people to ingratiate himself with them for business, personal, political and financial gain, as well as to obtain potential blackmail information. They included numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-known prime minister, and other world leaders.
The papers, part of prior litigation, also contain the claim that Andrew tried to lobby the US on behalf of Epstein to help secure a favourable plea arrangement.
The papers are part of a 2015 civil court battle between Epstein and his former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, and Giuffre, now 36, who accused the couple of sexual abuse. She also claimed she was forced to have sex with Prince Andrew, which he vehemently denies.
The papers were released after a judge rejected an attempt by Maxwells lawyers to keep them secret. A friend of Prince Andrew said: The US federal appeals court said in 2019 these allegations should be treated with extreme caution. Allegations are not the same as facts, which is the essential premise on which justice works. Lets see if these allegations stand up, because precious few about the duke do wheres the proof?
On the lobbying claim, the friend added: This allegation is a straightforward untruth. No ifs, no buts.
Lawyers for two other alleged victims in the 2015 civil case, referred to as Jane Doe #1 and #2, requested the release of documents showing the alleged lobbying by the Prince.
They are seeking documents regarding Epsteins lobbying efforts to persuade the government to give him a more favourable plea arrangement and/or non-prosecution agreement, including efforts on his behalf by Prince Andrew and the former Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz.
It is claimed in the unsealed papers that an island orgy was one of three occasions when Jane Doe #3 was forced to have sex with Andrew. The other locations were Maxwells London flat and and in New York.
No precise dates are given for the alleged incidents. But it is claimed Jane Doe #3 was first approached by Maxwell in 1999, when she was 15. Epstein kept her as a sex slave from about 1999 to 2002, before she escaped and fled to another country, according to a document.
Similar allegations about Prince Andrew having sex with an underage girl were ordered to be struck from court records in 2015 in the civil case. At the time the judge did not rule on the veracity of the claims.
Epstein killed himself last summer while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
Maxwell was arrested recently on federal charges that she recruited at least three girls, including one as young as 14, for Epstein to sexually abuse in the 1990s. Prosecutors said she also joined in the abuse. Maxwell is in jail awaiting trial in New York.
