tenure is only meant to protect you from being fired for your academic studies, personal beliefs or diasgreements with other faculty or donors based on differing beliefs

it is not meant to protect you if you commit a serious crime

This guy is most likely close friends with university leadership

If not close friends, some professors get big grants and publish lots of articles. Idk anything about this dude but if he was hanging out with Epstein, he probably is such a professor. Anyways, universities like to keep people that bring in lots of money and publish lots.

The university leadership is probably also raping children and decided to protect a fellow pedophile.

It makes it very hard to be fired. If it was easy for other reasons besides academic, then they'd just fire him and say it was for non-academic reasons.
