The Springfield Three (Part Five: "Closure")

"Every day that passes makes it harder to hold him accountable."In the spring of 2008, inside the offices of the United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, a document was finalized that brought an end to the federal government’s investigation of Jeffrey Epstein. The document was a Non-Prosecution Agreement, a type of agreement used to resolve cases without a trial. But this NPA in particular was handled outside of the normal public process. It was not filed in open court, and there was no public acknowledgement that it existed when it was signed.The individuals whose testimony had formed the basis of the federal case were not notified. They were not told that negotiations were underway, and they were not informed when the agreement was finalized. No court hearing accompanied the signing, and no press release announced that the investigation had been resolved.Part 4/7Research & writing by Amelia White and Ira RaiHosting, production, and additional research & writing by Micheal WhelanLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.

"I believed in the process. I thought that if we did our jobs the right way, the outcome would take care of itself. I learned that isn't always true."In October 2005, detectives from the Palm Beach Police Department arrived at 358 El Brillo Way. Residents assumed its owner, Jeffrey Epstein, was just another wealthy resident, but officers had been keeping tabs on the mysterious financier for months and had come to suspect that he was behind a strange sexual exploitation scheme involving minors.Evidence seized that day would form the backbone of one of the most complex sex crimes investigations in Florida history. But in that moment, detectives had no idea that what they would uncover would have ramifications far beyond what they ever imagined...Part 3/7Research & writing by Amelia White and Ira RaiHosting, production, and additional research & writing by Micheal WhelanLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.

"If Jeffrey was the enigma, she was the translator."On the morning of 5 November 1991, a body was found floating in the Atlantic near the Canary Islands. It was Robert Maxwell, one of Britain's most famous and controversial businessman. Hours earlier he had vanished from his yacht, the Lady Ghislaine, anchored off the Spanish coast. His death immediately became front-page news in the UK and across Europe, especially when it came to light that Maxwell's businesses had engaged in massive frauds.For Maxwell's youngest daughter, Ghislaine, the loss was more than financial. With her father dead and his business empire collapsing around her, she tried to escape the scandal and rebuild somewhere where she would not be defined by her family's collapse. So in early 1992, she moved to New York City...Part 2/7Research & writing by Amelia White and Ira RaiHosting, production, and additional research & writing by Micheal WhelanLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.

"He stood out as this young guy in this weird coat."In 1991, business magnate Leslie Wexner signed a general power of attorney that gave Jeffrey Epstein authority to act on his behalf in nearly all matters of business and finance. The document allowed Epstein, a young financial consultant that Wexner had just met a few years prior, to sign checks, open and close bank accounts, buy and sell property, transfer assets, and borrow money in Wexner's name. The scope of the arrangement was unparalleled.The decades prior to this saw Epstein ascend through the financial world in remarkable fashion. The son of public servants, Epstein grew up in a middle-class household in Brooklyn. His early adulthood was rife with failure and a lack of any significant accomplishments. Yet, by his 40th birthday, Epstein was managing billions of dollars in wealth and property...Part 1/7Research & writing by Amelia White and Ira RaiHosting, production, and additional research & writing by Micheal WhelanLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.

"No fiction author would have had the temerity to invent a disorder of such incredible clinical diversity and puzzling behavior."In the winter of 1916-1917, as World War I raged, physicians in Europe began noticing bizarre cases of brain illness. Thousands arrived at hospitals with high fevers, headaches, confusion, and a host of other factors - suspected at first to be meningitis or even poisoning - yet none of the explanations fit. What all of these patients shared was either an overwhelming drowsiness or psychotic agitation.By late 1918, as the great influenza pandemic struck, this new "sleeping sickness" had spread across Europe and Beyond. Earlier that year, outbreaks were noted in England and the first American case was reported in September. By 1919, enough cases had surfaced worldwide that health officials realized they faced an epidemic of a baffling new illness...Research & writing by Micheal Whelan and Amelia WhiteHosting & production by Micheal WhelanLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.
