Epstein, Banks & Accountability: The Fight That’s Just Beginning (10/27/25)

Epstein, Banks & Accountability: The Fight That’s Just Beginning (10/27/25)

The newly filed lawsuits against major banks like Bank of America and BNY Mellon allege that these institutions knowingly enabled Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking operations by providing him with banking services, ignoring red flags, and failing to file required Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs). For example, one complaint claims that Bank of America routed payments through an account opened at Epstein’s direction, and that BNY processed around $378 million in payments linked to women trafficked by Epstein. These suits open a path for court-ordered disclosure of internal bank documents — account records, wire transfers, risk-compliance memos — which are likely to reveal the depth of financial institutions’ awareness and involvement in Epstein’s network.

Beyond illuminating the financial mechanics of Epstein’s operation, the lawsuits could map the broader institutional infrastructure: how Epstein’s wealth and connections were supported by legacy banks, investment vehicles, and private banking units; how high-net-worth clients were managed even amid serious criminal allegations; and how oversight failures enabled illicit flows tied to trafficking. If discovery proceeds, it may force banks to produce internal logs showing when they flagged (or ignored) Epstein-linked activity, when they escalated concerns (or didn’t), and whether senior executives were alerted. This could shift the narrative from one of Epstein acting alone to one where the financial sector played a structural role — in effect uncovering the shadow-architecture behind his empire.

The Billionaires Playboy Club:   A Memoir By Virginia Roberts (Chapter 11 Part 2) (10/29/25)

The Billionaires Playboy Club: A Memoir By Virginia Roberts (Chapter 11 Part 2) (10/29/25)

Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s unpublished memoir The Billionaire’s Playboy Club recounts her recruitment into Jeffrey Epstein’s world as a 16-year-old working at Mar-a-Lago, where she says Ghislaine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.

Mega Edition:   Judge Kaplan Warns Prince Andrew Not To Play Games In His Courtroom (10/29/25)

Mega Edition: Judge Kaplan Warns Prince Andrew Not To Play Games In His Courtroom (10/29/25)

In 2021, Judge Lewis A. Kaplan of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York allowed Virginia Giuffre’s civil lawsuit against Prince Andrew to proceed, rejecting the Duke’s attempts to have the case dismissed. Andrew’s legal team had argued that Giuffre’s 2009 settlement agreement with Jeffrey Epstein protected him from liability, but Kaplan ruled that the document’s language was too vague to guarantee immunity for the prince. The judge also rejected efforts by Andrew’s attorneys to delay proceedings or challenge jurisdiction, stating that service had been properly carried out and that the court had the authority to move forward.Throughout the pretrial stages, Judge Kaplan issued several pointed warnings to Andrew’s legal team, cautioning them against what he saw as stalling and procedural gamesmanship. At one point, he rebuked their reliance on “technical arguments” instead of addressing the substantive claims, making it clear he would not tolerate obstruction. His firm handling of the case underscored that no one, royal or otherwise, was above the law. Ultimately, the case never went to trial—Prince Andrew settled with Giuffre in early 2022—but Kaplan’s rulings were pivotal in ensuring that the lawsuit could not be quietly swept aside.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Mega Edition:  Judge Preska And The Document Dump That Opened The Floodgates (10/29/25)

Mega Edition: Judge Preska And The Document Dump That Opened The Floodgates (10/29/25)

In December 2023, Judge Loretta Preska of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ordered a massive unsealing of Jeffrey Epstein–related documents from the Ghislaine Maxwell defamation case. These files, long kept under seal, contained names of associates, depositions, and exhibits that had been hidden for years. Preska ruled that the public interest outweighed any remaining privacy concerns, emphasizing that secrecy was no longer justified except for information identifying minor victims. The decision paved the way for one of the largest Epstein document releases yet—revealing hundreds of pages that shed light on how Epstein and Maxwell operated their network and who may have been connected to it.The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit later affirmed the underlying principle behind Preska’s ruling, upholding that the presumption of public access applies to judicial records in Epstein-related litigation. This affirmation followed the precedent set in Brown v. Maxwell (2019), where the court found that lower courts must provide a “particularized review” before keeping such documents sealed. By affirming the transparency mandate, the Second Circuit reinforced the public’s right to know and ensured that future attempts to hide materials related to Epstein’s crimes would face steep judicial resistance. Together, these rulings represent a rare and decisive push toward accountability in a case long plagued by secrecy and institutional protection.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Mega Edition: Ghislaine Maxwell's Go No Where Attempt To Attain Her Freedom (10/27/25)

Ghislaine Maxwell’s appeal originated from her conviction in December 2021 for facilitating the sexual abuse of underage girls by Jeffrey Epstein. After being found guilty on five of six counts and sentenced in June 2022 to 20 years in prison, her legal team sought to overturn the conviction largely by arguing that a 2007 non-prosecution agreement (NPA) made between Epstein and federal prosecutors in Florida should have shielded her from being prosecuted in New York. They contended that the language in the NPA (“the United States … will not institute any criminal charges against any potential co-conspirators of Epstein”) prevented her prosecution as a co-conspirator.However, her appeal ultimately failed. On September 17 2024 the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed the conviction, finding the Florida NPA did not bind the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of New York. It also held the indictment was timely under the statute of limitationsto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
