Bryan Kohberger's Legal Team Brings Aboard A Genealogist To Challenge The DNA Evidence

Bryan Kohberger's Legal Team Brings Aboard A Genealogist To Challenge The DNA Evidence

Genetic genealogy is a field that combines traditional genealogy research with modern DNA testing techniques to trace familial relationships and ancestry through genetic information. It involves analyzing an individual's DNA to uncover their genetic heritage, connect with distant relatives, and map out family trees. This approach has gained significant popularity due to advancements in DNA sequencing technology, particularly in the form of direct-to-consumer DNA testing kits.Here's how genetic genealogy works and how it's used by investigators:
  1. DNA Testing: Individuals interested in exploring their genetic heritage and family history can submit their DNA samples through services provided by companies like AncestryDNA, 23andMe, and MyHeritageDNA. These companies analyze specific segments of the submitted DNA to identify genetic markers that are common among different populations and individuals.
  2. Genetic Markers: Certain sections of the DNA, particularly those found in the Y chromosome (passed from father to son) and the mitochondrial DNA (passed from mother to all offspring), contain genetic markers that can be used to identify ancestral lineages. Autosomal DNA, which is inherited from both parents, is also examined to find matches with other individuals in the testing company's database.
  3. Matching and Comparison: Testing companies compare an individual's genetic markers with those of other users in their databases. If two individuals share a significant amount of genetic material, they are considered genetic matches. The more segments of DNA they share, the closer their relationship is likely to be.
  4. Building Family Trees: Genetic genealogy involves constructing family trees using a combination of traditional genealogical research and the information gained from DNA matches. By connecting with other users who share segments of DNA, individuals can extend their family trees and discover new branches of their lineage.
  5. Identifying Common Ancestors: As more people participate in DNA testing, the chances of finding common ancestors increase. Overlapping segments of shared DNA can help identify specific ancestors or ancestral groups that are shared among related individuals.
  6. Forensic and Investigative Applications: Genetic genealogy has also found applications in criminal investigations. Law enforcement agencies have used DNA databases to identify unknown perpetrators of crimes like murder and sexual assault. In cases where traditional investigative methods have been unsuccessful, investigators can upload DNA profiles from crime scenes to genealogy databases and identify potential relatives of the suspect based on shared genetic markers.
  7. Building Family Trees for Identification: Once potential relatives of the suspect are identified, investigators work to build family trees using genealogical records, such as birth certificates, marriage records, and obituaries. By tracing the shared ancestry of these relatives, law enforcement can narrow down the list of potential suspects to a smaller pool.
  8. Narrowing Down Suspects: Investigative genetic genealogy can help law enforcement focus on specific individuals who fit the profile of the unknown suspect based on age, location, and other relevant factors. This process has led to the successful identification and capture of suspects in several high-profile cases.




Bryan Kohberger's defense team has brought on Leah Larkin, a well respected genealogist to challenge the findings made by the prosecution during the DNA portion of the investigation. She will look to punch holes in the DNA evidence provided by the FBI and Moscow police and hopefully, from the defenses standpoint, provide a narrative that differs from the one presented by the prosecution.

The OIG Report Into Jeffrey Epstein's  Non Prosecution Agreement (Part 35-36) (11/3/25)

The OIG Report Into Jeffrey Epstein's Non Prosecution Agreement (Part 35-36) (11/3/25)

The Jeffrey Epstein non-prosecution agreement (NPA) of 2007-08, reviewed by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR), detailed how federal prosecutors in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida negotiated a deal that effectively ended an active federal investigation into Epstein’s alleged trafficking and abuse of underage girls. The agreement granted broad immunity to Epstein and unnamed “potential co-conspirators,” allowed him to plead guilty to state charges instead of facing major federal sex-trafficking counts, and did so without informing or consulting the victims before the deal was executed. The OPR found that while no evidence of corruption or impermissible influence was uncovered, the decision represented “poor judgment” by the prosecutors.Further, the report underscored significant procedural deficiencies: victims were not made aware of the NPA, the USAO did not meaningfully engage with them in accordance with the Crime Victims’ Rights Act’s principles, and the immunity granted in the NPA curtailed future federal prosecution of Epstein’s associates—even as investigation into other victims and broader criminal conduct may have persisted. In short, the OPR concluded that the case resolution was legally within the prosecutors’ discretion, but deeply flawed in its execution and fairness to those harmed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:dl (justice.gov)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell And The  Pardon That Never Came

Ghislaine Maxwell And The Pardon That Never Came

Right after her arrest in July 2020, Ghislaine Maxwell went into survival mode — and behind the polished courtroom façade, she began quietly fishing for a pardon. Her legal team and inner circle floated the idea that she could “name names” connected to Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking network if she were granted immunity or clemency. At the time, Donald Trump was still in office, and Maxwell’s camp appeared to believe they could leverage his public comments — particularly his infamous “I wish her well” remark — into something more substantial. Rumors circulated through legal and political channels that Maxwell’s attorneys were probing whether a preemptive pardon could be arranged before trial, suggesting she might have valuable information to trade. It was a desperate gambit, driven by the awareness that the evidence against her was overwhelming and that Epstein’s death had made her the last major target standing.But the pardon never came. Trump, already under scrutiny for the Epstein connection, backed away publicly, saying he hadn’t considered it and that “no one had asked.” Inside the White House, advisers reportedly warned that granting clemency to Maxwell — a woman accused of grooming and trafficking minors — would be political suicide. As a result, her quiet lobbying efforts died on the vine. When the administration’s final list of pardons was released in January 2021, her name was nowhere to be found. Instead, she was left to face the full weight of the justice system alone — a would-be power player turned prisoner, watching the man she once might have counted on to save her walk away without lifting a finger.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell And Her Role As Groomer In Chief

Ghislaine Maxwell And Her Role As Groomer In Chief

Ghislaine Maxwell wasn’t just Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice — she was his “groomer-in-chief,” the woman who made his operation function. According to federal prosecutors and multiple survivor testimonies, Maxwell lured young girls into Epstein’s world under the guise of mentorship, employment, or social opportunity, only to gradually normalize sexual contact and hand them over to Epstein for abuse. Survivors described how she used charm, wealth, and a false sense of safety to break down boundaries — taking them shopping, inviting them to parties, or offering money before introducing “massages” that became assaults. She was the bridge between Epstein’s respectability and depravity, leveraging her elite background to make the entire system seem legitimate.Her 2021 conviction and 20-year federal sentence confirmed that Maxwell wasn’t a bystander — she was an active architect. The evidence revealed she coached girls on how to please Epstein, managed his schedule of victims, and participated in the abuse herself. Prosecutors called her the “partner in crime” who ensured Epstein’s predation never slowed. Her insistence that she was merely a scapegoat collapsed under the weight of survivor testimony and documented grooming patterns spanning years. The judge called her actions “heinous and predatory,” and her conviction cemented her legacy as the key facilitator of one of the most systematic sex-trafficking operations in modern American history.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Jeffrey Epstein And The Vanishing Video

Jeffrey Epstein And The Vanishing Video

During late July 2019, Epstein was found semi-conscious in his cell with marks on his neck in what authorities called his first suicide attempt. Surveillance footage from outside his cell, recorded on July 22–23 of that year, was said to capture the event or circumstances around it. However, prosecutors later disclosed that the footage “no longer exists” — it was lost or deleted, purportedly due to a technical or clerical error involving preservation of video from the wrong tier.The disappearance of that video has been heavily criticized by legal observers, investigators, and conspiracy theorists alike. The fact that evidence from a highly significant incident—one that could bear on the conditions of Epstein’s incarceration and safety protocols—cannot be accounted for raises serious questions about record-keeping, digital evidence chain of custody, and the transparency of prison surveillance systems.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

There Is No Basis To Scrub Jeffrey Epstein's NPA According To The DOJ

There Is No Basis To Scrub Jeffrey Epstein's NPA According To The DOJ

The government argues that the 2007 non-prosecution agreement (NPA) with Jeffrey Epstein remains legally binding and cannot be “scrubbed” because it was negotiated and approved by federal prosecutors acting within their discretion, and thus no valid basis exists to void it. Under internal standards, the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Professional Responsibility found that although the deal may have been “poor judgment,” it did not constitute professional misconduct because the Prosecutor had the “plenary authority” to resolve the federal case via a state plea, and none of the terms violated clear and unambiguous Department standards.Moreover, the government emphasises that the language of the NPA itself explicitly provides immunity from federal prosecution for “any potential co-conspirators of Epstein,” including unnamed individuals.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Alex Acosta Goes To Congress:   Transcripts From The Alex Acosta Deposition (Part 8) (11/2/25)

Alex Acosta Goes To Congress: Transcripts From The Alex Acosta Deposition (Part 8) (11/2/25)

When Alex Acosta sat before Congress to explain himself, what unfolded was less an act of accountability and more a masterclass in bureaucratic self-preservation. He painted the 2008 Epstein plea deal as a “strategic compromise,” claiming a federal trial might have been too risky because victims were “unreliable” and evidence was “thin.” In reality, federal prosecutors had a mountain of corroborating witness statements, corroborative travel logs, and sworn victim testimony—yet Acosta gave Epstein the deal of the century. The so-called non-prosecution agreement wasn’t justice; it was a backroom surrender, executed in secrecy, without even notifying the victims. When pressed on this, Acosta spun excuses about legal precedent and “jurisdictional confusion,” never once admitting the obvious: his office protected a rich, politically connected predator at the expense of dozens of trafficked girls.Even more damning was Acosta’s insistence that he acted out of pragmatism, not pressure. He denied that anyone “higher up” told him to back off—even though he once told reporters that he’d been informed Epstein “belonged to intelligence.” Under oath, he downplayed that statement, twisting it into bureaucratic double-speak. He even claimed the deal achieved “some level of justice” because Epstein registered as a sex offender—a hollow justification that only exposed how insulated from reality he remains. Acosta never showed remorse for the irreparable damage caused by his cowardice. His congressional testimony reeked of moral rot, the same rot that let a billionaire pedophile walk free while survivors were left to pick up the pieces.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Acosta Transcript.pdf - Google DriveBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The Billionaires Playboy Club: A Memoir By Virginia Roberts (Chapter 15 Part 2 Chapter 16 Part 1 ) (11/2/25)

Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s unpublished memoir The Billionaire’s Playboy Club recounts her recruitment into Jeffrey Epstein’s world as a 16-year-old working at Mar-a-Lago, where she says Ghislaine Maxwell lured her in with promises of opportunity and travel. The manuscript describes how she became trapped in Epstein’s orbit, allegedly forced into sexual encounters with powerful men, including Prince Andrew, and ferried across his properties in New York, Florida, and the Virgin Islands. Giuffre paints a detailed picture of coercion, psychological manipulation, and the disturbing normalization of exploitation within Epstein’s high-society circle.In this episode, we begin our journey through that memoir.   to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Virgina Giuffre Billionaire's Playboy Club | DocumentCloudBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
