At Cannongal, at some point people do have to take responsibility for thier problems, even if others had a play in them. Sometimes it takes a lot of counseling and sometimes a person's family life is so fucked up that there is no reasonable adult to take them out of the situation they are in-I think that is where a case like Whitney's could become more problematic.
Each case is different.

Update
Ghislaine Maxwell appeared via video-conference in a New York court today.
She is charged with 4 counts of recruiting/grooming/abusing minor girls with Jeffrey Epstein between 1994 and 1997. She is also charged with two counts of lying about it under oath in 2016.
Maxwell requested bail and was willing to put up millions and agree to strict restrictions in order to be released to home until her trial.

Her defense argued that Maxwell is not a flight risk and would be at risk of contracting Covid-19 if she was forced to remain incarcerated.
The prosecutors countered that Maxwell is indeed a flight risk and explained that she'd tried to dodge FBI investigators when they arrived at her New Hampshire home on July 2
nd, forcing the agents to breach the door.
Maxwell was denied bail. She pleaded 'not guily' to all charges.
