1. "and there's now a sizable 'Epstein Compensation Fund'"

It's not tremendously surprising.

There can be a lot of reasons for varying testimony of persons who were selected on the basis of having family/personal issues for grooming in the first place. For example, the trauma itself may be a factor.

There is grooming and there is grooming. Since the Epstein victim fund was established, there have of course also been lawyers anxious to round of Epstein victim clients. On the one hand, contingent fee lawyers provide legal services to a lot of people who would not otherwise be able to afford lawyers. On the other hand, it can produce unfortunate incentives.

Even considering that situations can be more complicated than they appear is anathema to some, which is unfortunate. People are not testifying machines, and the same person may relate different aspects of episodes over time. By the same token human memory is not static. Memories can, and do, change.
