On March 22nd from 2pm-5pm at Hilo Bayfront Beach Park we will be standing and marching to demand the many Epstein Island predators and enablers be held accountable. The victims deserve justice and to know that what happened to them was unacceptable. We will not be distracted and we will not forget. No government leader or celebrity is above the law. If you are against child predators and cannibalism, stand with us and let your voice be heard. Join us to demand justice for the Epstein survivors and to say what happened to those children was intolerable and will never happen again.
