The Company Man: Alex Acosta and the Art of The Deflection (10/19/25)

The Company Man: Alex Acosta and the Art of The Deflection (10/19/25)

In his recent testimony before Congress, former Labor Secretary and ex–U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta doubled down on his long-criticized defense of the 2008 non-prosecution agreement that allowed Jeffrey Epstein to dodge federal sex-trafficking charges and serve barely a year in a cushy county jail. Acosta told the House Oversight Committee that at the time, he believed a federal trial would have been a “crapshoot” because of what he called limited cooperation from victims and thin evidence — a claim that directly contradicts later Justice Department findings showing that dozens of victims were ready to testify. He also denied having any knowledge that Epstein would be granted work-release, despite extensive records showing the arrangement was approved during his watch. His tone was clinical and detached, as if the systemic betrayal of dozens of trafficked minors was just another bureaucratic footnote.


Lawmakers on both sides were incensed, with Democrats accusing Acosta of rewriting history and showing “zero remorse” for enabling one of the most notorious predators in modern American history. Even some Republicans privately admitted that his testimony came off as evasive and self-serving. Acosta tried to shift blame to subordinates and state prosecutors, but his own department’s inspector general previously concluded that he exercised “poor judgment” and gave Epstein a sweetheart deal that “violated the spirit of the law.” For the victims who have spent years fighting for justice, Acosta’s congressional appearance only confirmed what they already knew — that the powerful protect their own, even when it means selling out the powerless.

The Ghislaine Maxwell Tapes: Transcripts From Ghislaine Maxwell DOJ Interview (Part 6) (8/24/25)

On August 22, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice released redacted transcripts and audio recordings of a two-day interview it conducted in July with Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year federal prison sentence for her role in Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking ring. During the interview, Maxwell denied ever seeing any inappropriate behavior by former President Donald Trump, describing him as a “gentleman in all respects,” and insisted she “never witnessed the president in any inappropriate setting in any way.” She also rejected the existence of a so-called “client list,” countering years of speculation, and claimed to have no knowledge of blackmail or illicit recordings tied to Epstein.In addition to defending high-profile figures, Maxwell expressed doubt that Epstein’s death was a suicide, while also rejecting the notion of an elaborate conspiracy or murder plot. The release of the transcripts—handled under the Trump-era Justice Department—has stirred sharp political debate. Trump allies have framed her remarks as vindication, while critics and Epstein’s survivors question her credibility, pointing to her conviction and suggesting her words may be aimed at influencing potential clemency or political favor.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Interview Transcript - Maxwell 2025.07.24 (Redacted).pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Jeffrey Epstein And The Women Who Enabled His Abuse (Part 5-7) (8/24/25)

These four women were explicitly named as "potential co-conspirators" in Jeffrey Epstein’s 2008 non-prosecution agreement, a deal that allowed him to avoid serious federal charges. Sarah Kellen and Lesley Groff, both former assistants, are accused of coordinating travel and scheduling for underage girls, acting as facilitators in Epstein’s exploitation network. Adriana Ross, a former model, was similarly implicated for arranging “sex sessions,” while Nadia Marcinkova—once described as Epstein’s "live-in sex slave"—is believed to have participated in abuse and appeared frequently on flight logs, flying aboard Epstein's private jets.Though none of the four have been criminally charged, their names remain central to the investigation into Epstein’s trafficking ring. The immunity granted in the plea deal stirred widespread backlash, and prominent attorneys like Gloria Allred have vowed to pursue accountability, insisting the operation could not have functioned without them. Meanwhile, civil lawsuits continue to reference their roles as enablers, intensifying scrutiny and legal pressure on them as the broader net of accountability expands.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comSource:https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2021/05/14/jeffrey-epstein-investigation-women-487157Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Jeffrey Epstein's Estate And The Memorandum In Opposition To The Lien's (8/23/25)

In this case before the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands, the co-executors of Jeffrey Epstein’s estate, Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn, filed a reply brief supporting their expedited motion to vacate liens placed by the Government of the Virgin Islands. The estate and its affiliated entities—including the 1953 Trust, various LLCs, and corporate holdings—are defendants in a civil action seeking damages connected to Epstein’s trafficking network. The government had imposed liens on estate assets, effectively freezing large portions of Epstein’s wealth, to secure potential recovery in its lawsuit.The co-executors argue in their reply brief that the liens are improper and should be lifted immediately, claiming the government has overreached its authority and is unfairly restricting the administration of the estate. They contend that the liens impede their legal responsibilities to manage and distribute assets, and that alternative legal safeguards already exist to protect the government’s claims. The filing stresses urgency, pointing to potential harm caused by the restrictions, and asks the court to expedite relief by vacating the liens.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:DisplayFile.aspx (vicourts.org)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
