Scuba Divers Knew of “Pedophile Island"In the waters near now-deceased Jeffrey Epstein’s private St. Thomas retreat in the Virgin Islands, there’s some decent diving, but when guides took scuba divers to spots near Epstein’s Little St. James Island, security guards would immediately walk to the water’s edge. “Everybody called it ‘Pedophile Island,’” says Kevin Goodrich, who runs Alternate Attitude boat charters out of St. Thomas. “It’s our dark corner.” On August 12, the FBI raided Pedophile Island to probe further into Epstein’s alleged sex trafficking ring.

Using a Transmitter? If you have a wireless air-integrated computer, the transmitter, jutting out from the side of the regulator’s first stage, can look seductively like a tank handle to uninitiated boat crews, and they may grab it. Mounting it at the end of a short (six-inch) high-pressure hose avoids costly errors, but don’t also forget to install the little double-ended flow restrictor supplied with your computer’s transmitter, rather than the single-ended one for use when fitted directly to the first stage.
