THE VICTIMS OF JEFFREY EPSTEIN
Consequences of:
Media coverage of the case
Reparation of harm:
Meaning of the victims’ suicide
It is possible
Prolongation of the case
What is needed?
The case leading to no outcome
To repair institutional trust, meaning that institutions are seen as a collective symbol
Consequences of Media coverage of the case:
Sylvie Pérez, a psychologist, considers it to be a form of unwanted loss of intimacy: “When you choose, you have control, and when you have control, it is always psychologically easier to cope. Here, the victim does not choose; the victim is exposed”. From that point on, she explains, it depends on whether the media validates the pain and supports the victims, or ends up turning them into victims twice over.
Consequences of prolongation of the case:
- Reinforcement of the sense of helplessness.
- Institutional distrust (nothing is happening, there are no consequences. Therefore, it could happen again).
- The victim’s recovery process becomes increasingly difficult.
Sylvie Pérez: “In a case like this, you need to be able to validate that society penalizes this, and that the institution protects you so that it doesn’t happen again”.
Meaning of the victims’ suicide:
- They are not free decisions, but decisions driven by pain.
- A victim who dies by suicide experiences feelings of guilt.
- Hopelessness toward institutions, which reinforces feelings of guilt and helplessness.
Consequences of the case leading to no outcome:
Sylvie Pérez points directly to the victims: "They will have to work much harder because this will generate feelings of impotence. It could also reactivate trauma, the sense of injustice would fuel it, and there will be the impression, not only for them but also for others, that this could happen again".
