Congrats to Julie K. Brown! She was awarded a #Pulitzer Prize special citation today for her groundbreaking reporting in 2017 & 2018 for the Miami Herald exposing Jeffrey Epstein's systematic abuse of young women and the justice system & powerful network of associates that protected him for years.
Admirable Women121Got a DM about this. Laura Dern to produce a limited series based on Julie K. Brown's book, "Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story." Dern will play Brown in the series. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/l...
Admirable Women99Thank you @jkbjournalist.bsky.social for your excellent investigative journalism and for being a "voice for the silenced." 🌹
bellatv31www.inquirer.com/news/pennsyl... A Pulitzer For the People! He won't be trying to take this one!
RodneyRamjet31Her portrait needs to be on American passports.
Hold My Beer ❌👑🐸🇲🇽🇨🇦17Congrats @jkbjournalist.bsky.social Thank you for your work, as difficult as it is, it is so very important. We all thank you. 💜
Estefano11Brown is clearly the woman of the decade...when every other news organization had moved on, she stayed on the Epstein story...and kudos to the Miami Herald for allowing her to do so. Her Pulitzer win is overdue and much deserved.
praying mantis10@admirablewomen.bsky.social Your alt text is fantastic. Thanks for taking the time to write that up.
pushkin99.bsky.social7Nearly ten years on, and the victims are still waiting for justice.
s-romanyousafzai.bsky.social6Speaking the truth and standing up for the truth is a matter of great courage and courage. One has to endure hardships in the path of truth. Such people are role models for the society. They deserve many awards.
Pete Quily5Who will be the first reporter to ask Republican politicians about what they think about Julie K Brown winning a Pulitzer pride for reporting on Donald Trump‘s best friend for a decade, sex slave trafficker, pedophile rapist, and child pimp Jeffrey Epstein? And ideally ask Trump
#BigBeautifulCON ❌👑5@jkbjournalist.bsky.social is an American HERO. Legend. Thank you for your tremendous efforts!! You have truly made a difference.

Andronicus of Rhodes3This is one of the most well deserved Pulitzer’s in the history of the award. All that is left is for Congress to come in out of the cold and prosecute all of the corrupt folks that are a part of the Epstein scandal.

Sadly the raping of post pubescent teenage girls is by no means the the most vile of crimes committed in that island as well as other Epstein facilities. These ‘people’ are not merely rapists- they torture murder and eat babies. Evil
