They are being extradited to the UK, where the Crown Prosecution Service announced that four additional victims have come forward with new charges — rape, sex trafficking, assault, and child or extreme pornography.

The right has a pattern of embracing morally bankrupt figures simply because they transgress leftist norms. Ben Shapiro argues this is both a moral failure and a political liability — one that the Tate brothers' arrest makes impossible to ignore.
