Mega Edition: Les Wexner And His Reign At The Top (10/12/25)

Les Wexner earned the nickname “King of Columbus” because of the immense economic, cultural, and political footprint he left on the city of Columbus, Ohio. As the founder of The Limited in 1963, which later became L Brands, Wexner transformed a single women’s clothing store into a retail juggernaut that included brands like Victoria’s Secret, Bath & Body Works, and Express. His success generated enormous wealth, much of which he funneled back into his hometown through philanthropy, real estate development, and civic influence. Wexner’s donations helped shape major institutions, including Ohio State University and the Columbus Foundation, while entire areas of Columbus’ expansion were tied to his investments and leadership. This combination of business dominance and local control made him, for decades, the city’s unofficial monarch — the “King of Columbus.”


In recent years, however, Les Wexner has steadily reduced his financial footprint in L Brands, the company that built his empire. By mid-2021, he had sold off a massive portion of his holdings — unloading approximately $2.7 billion worth of stock — leaving him with only about a 2 percent stake in the company he once commanded. The sales came amid L Brands’ restructuring and the eventual separation of Victoria’s Secret and Bath & Body Works into standalone companies. With those divestments, Wexner’s era as a retail titan effectively closed, signaling a retreat from the empire he had ruled for nearly six decades.

Maximum Crime, Minimum Time:  What Ghislaine Maxwell’s Prison Transfer Really Means (8/4/25)

Maximum Crime, Minimum Time: What Ghislaine Maxwell’s Prison Transfer Really Means (8/4/25)

Ghislaine Maxwell’s transfer to a minimum-security facility in Texas is a disgraceful betrayal of the survivors who fought for years to see her held accountable. Rather than serving her sentence in a maximum-security prison befitting the severity of her crimes, Maxwell now resides in a relaxed environment typically reserved for nonviolent offenders. This move sends a chilling message: that justice is conditional, reserved for those without wealth, influence, or powerful connections. Maxwell, convicted of trafficking underage girls for Jeffrey Epstein’s elite sex ring, has been effectively recast as a low-risk inmate, despite her central role in a global criminal operation. The system’s decision to ease her conditions reeks of institutional protectionism and cowardice.For survivors, this transfer reopens old wounds and confirms what they feared all along—that even a conviction wouldn’t mean real justice. Their courage in testifying, reliving trauma, and demanding accountability has been answered with silence and strategic erasure. Maxwell never expressed remorse, never cooperated, and never named names, yet she is being rewarded with comfort and obscurity. The system has again prioritized the preservation of elite power over the pain of the abused. While Maxwell rests behind soft walls, survivors remain trapped in lifelong sentences of trauma, knowing full well their abuser will one day walk free, rebranded and protected, as if the suffering she caused was just a footnote.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Rumors Of A Relationship Between Prince Andrew And Ghislaine Maxwell Are Reignited (8/4/25)

Rumors Of A Relationship Between Prince Andrew And Ghislaine Maxwell Are Reignited (8/4/25)

The persistent rumors of a romantic relationship between Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew have been reignited by the forthcoming book The Rise and Fall of the House of York by royal biographer Andrew Lownie. In the book, Lownie presents testimony from insiders and former friends of the Duke of York who claim Maxwell and Andrew shared more than just a social friendship. According to the book, the two were romantically involved, with some sources describing them as “an item” during the 1990s. Maxwell, Lownie writes, was obsessed with status and saw Andrew as both a romantic target and a royal stepping stone. Their relationship, according to these accounts, was well known among those in their inner circles—casting doubt on the prince’s repeated insistence that he barely knew her.These claims put Prince Andrew’s public denials under fresh scrutiny and deepen the sense that he was far more involved with the Epstein-Maxwell operation than he’s admitted. If Maxwell and Andrew were romantically entangled, it suggests that he wasn’t just a royal caught in the wrong company—but a man emotionally and personally tied to Epstein’s chief accomplice. This complicates his attempts to distance himself from the scandal, particularly in light of the settlement he paid to Virginia Giuffre. Lownie’s revelations don’t just challenge the official narrative—they threaten to obliterate it, exposing the possibility that the prince’s entanglement with Maxwell was neither incidental nor peripheral, but intimate, calculated, and deeply compromising.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew Had 'Affair' With Ghislaine Maxwell: Book - NewsweekBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Prestige Laundromat: How Academia Basked in Jeffrey Epstein’s Filth (8/4/25)

The Prestige Laundromat: How Academia Basked in Jeffrey Epstein’s Filth (8/4/25)

Jeffrey Epstein’s reach into academia was not an accident—it was a deliberate campaign of influence, and the institutions that took his money were not naïve. From Harvard University to MIT, prestigious institutions shamelessly accepted millions from Epstein, even after his 2008 conviction for soliciting a minor. He was paraded through campuses, granted offices, and allowed to rub elbows with some of the most powerful intellectuals in the world. Harvard, for example, gave him a personal office and continued to associate with him long after his reputation had been shredded. MIT Media Lab staff referred to him as “Voldemort”—he who must not be named—while simultaneously courting his funding in secret, proving the hypocrisy wasn’t subtle, it was baked into the institution.What’s more damning is the moral contortionism these institutions employed to justify their partnerships. Academia, which claims to be a beacon of ethics and enlightenment, became a laundromat for Epstein’s blood money. Professors, researchers, and administrators who should have known better either stayed silent or openly defended the transactions, rationalizing them with talk of “advancing science” or “unrestricted gifts.” In truth, they weren’t advancing anything but their own ambitions and budgets. By embracing a convicted predator with open arms, these institutions exposed a rot within academia—where prestige and funding outweighed integrity, and the doors swung open for a monster who knew how to play the game.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein Donated Millions To These Scientists And InstitutesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell's New Home:   Camp Bryan AKA Camp Cupcake (8/4/25)

Ghislaine Maxwell's New Home: Camp Bryan AKA Camp Cupcake (8/4/25)

Camp Bryan, a minimum-security federal prison camp in Texas, was established to house low-risk, nonviolent female offenders, typically serving short sentences for white-collar or low-level drug offenses. Its open dormitory layout, relaxed movement restrictions, and reentry-focused programs stand in contrast to more secure facilities like FCI Tallahassee, which maintains tighter security protocols and houses a broader range of offenders, including those with longer sentences and more serious criminal backgrounds. While both institutions serve distinct roles in the Bureau of Prisons system, the classification standards and operational realities clearly separate them—Bryan is designed for inmates with minimal risk factors, whereas Tallahassee is structured to manage higher-security needs.Ghislaine Maxwell’s recent transfer from FCI Tallahassee to Camp Bryan has raised serious questions about procedural integrity and equal treatment under the law. Despite being convicted of sex trafficking minors and sentenced to 20 years, Maxwell was moved to a facility meant for nonviolent offenders, with the Bureau of Prisons citing vague safety concerns that remain unsubstantiated by public documentation or incident reports. This decision breaks from BOP norms regarding inmate classification, especially for high-profile individuals early in their sentence. The move has undermined public confidence in the justice system and reinforced the perception that powerful offenders are still afforded privileges that others are not, eroding the credibility of what many saw as long-overdue accountability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In Their Own Words: Jane Doe 1 And Jane Doe 2 And Their Allegations Against Jeffrey Epstein (8/4/25)

In Their Own Words: Jane Doe 1 And Jane Doe 2 And Their Allegations Against Jeffrey Epstein (8/4/25)

In this civil complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, plaintiffs Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2 allege that they were sexually abused and trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and his associates while they were minors. The complaint is brought against the Estate of Jeffrey Epstein and a group of unidentified defendants labeled as “Sue Roe” and “Roes 2–10,” believed to have played roles in facilitating, enabling, or directly participating in the abuse. The plaintiffs claim that Epstein used his wealth, power, and network of co-conspirators to lure them into environments where they were manipulated and coerced into sexual acts, often under false pretenses such as employment or mentorship opportunities.The complaint outlines how Epstein’s trafficking scheme functioned through a coordinated network that exploited young and vulnerable girls, with the plaintiffs seeking damages for the severe psychological, emotional, and physical harm they endured. It alleges that Epstein’s associates—including unnamed individuals still unknown to the plaintiffs—helped maintain this system and continued to shield his conduct even after his 2008 conviction. The lawsuit demands a jury trial and aims to hold not only Epstein’s estate accountable but also the living enablers who allegedly perpetuated or benefited from the abuse.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.521195.1.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Johanna Sjoberg's Deposition In The Maxwell/Virginia Roberts Suit (Part 5-6) (8/4/25)

In her deposition in the defamation lawsuit filed by Virginia Giuffre against Ghislaine Maxwell, Johanna Sjoberg described being recruited to work for Jeffrey Epstein under the impression that it was a legitimate job opportunity. According to her testimony, she was initially hired to help with office work but was soon asked to give massages to Epstein—something she testified quickly evolved into inappropriate and unwanted conduct. Sjoberg stated that Ghislaine Maxwell played a central role in managing the household and was often present during these encounters, contributing to the atmosphere of control and pressure. Her deposition supported claims made by Giuffre and other women who alleged they were misled into situations where they were exploited.Sjoberg also testified about interactions with well-known individuals while in Epstein’s company, including an allegation involving Prince Andrew, which she said took place at Epstein’s residence. She described an incident in which Maxwell, Epstein, and others were present during a moment she considered inappropriate and unsettling. While the full extent of those interactions remains the subject of legal scrutiny and public interest, Sjoberg’s deposition contributed to the broader pattern of allegations suggesting a tightly controlled environment where young women were manipulated under false pretenses. Her account was one of several that added weight to the claims being investigated in both civil and criminal proceedings surrounding Epstein and Maxwell.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
