From his textbook “Evolutionary Dynamics: Exploring The Equations of Life.” In the last sentence of the preface, after a couple dozen acknowledgements that are literally just a list of names, he has one last special thanks that gets its own paragraph:

“I thank Jeffrey Epstein for many ideas and for letting me participate in his passionate pursuit of knowledge in all its forms”

      Administrative Leave starts when a formal investigation begins. You’re basically calling for Chapter 10 of a book to be over when Chapter 1 barely started.

      In other words, your question amounts to:

      “An investigation started? Shouldn’t it be over before it began?”

      No, that’s not how investigations work.
