SDNY COURTHOUSE, Jan 9 -- Kurt had held off identifying the Maxwell trial's chatty juror Scott David, then put the ID on Patreon and finally only after that, on his website and into Google News.
Now the push-back picked up, as it had from Prince Andrew defenders. This was more nuanced. Some people so much wanted the closure of Ghislaine Maxwell being and remaining jailed (and, it seemed, no one higher than her) that anything that might undermine it shouldn't be reported, they said.
Kurt spent much of Sunday replying to such people, mostly privately through Direct Message or email. It was better than the United Nations beat, where either people didn't care about the slaughters and UN collusion he had reported on, or responded with allegations he was a spy for the Tamil Tigers, or Algeria, or just tryint to sully the already-defiled integrity of the UN.
Speaking of which... Sunday night Kurt wrote to the UN, 20 people including Guterres, Fleming and Dujarric, as well as Amina J. Mohammed of Identity Thieves, then to Norway's UN mission and Mona Juul, about photos of Kazakhstan troops wearing UN helmets as the picked stun grenades to throw at civilian protesters.
UNSG Guterres had covered up his links to Maxwell, and Juul her families financial links to Jeffrey Epstein. But shouldn't have they to respond to this more recent and public outrage?
Norway was already bragging about taking Guterres and Security Council ambassadors away later in the week on a retreat. The UN, always in retreat, never held accountable. Kurt vowed to double down. #MaximumMaxwell
The larger question was how the "Scotty David" interviews came about. And now, The Carlyle Group. From #MaximumMaxwell to #MirroringMaxwell.
Inner City Press covered the trial, and all the comes before and after it; #CourtCaseCast and song I, Song 2, Song 3, fifth song, Nov 27 song and now, the Dec 29 verdict song here now Jan 8 Scotty David chatty juror song here
The underlying case is US v. Maxwell, 20-cr-330 (Nathan).
