From Epstein to Empty Pockets: Prince Andrew’s Financial Freefall (10/29/25)

In Case No. 1:23-cv-06418, defendant Leon Black filed a memorandum supporting his motion for sanctions against Wigdor LLP and attorney Jeanne Christensen. Black contends that the plaintiff's legal team pursued baseless claims, lacking factual and legal merit, with the intent to damage his reputation and coerce a settlement. He argues that their actions constitute an abuse of the judicial process, warranting sanctions to deter such conduct and uphold the integrity of the court.Black's memorandum details instances where he believes Wigdor LLP and Christensen failed to conduct adequate investigations before filing the lawsuit, resulting in frivolous and defamatory allegations. He asserts that their behavior violates professional conduct standards and has caused him significant harm. Consequently, Black requests that the court impose appropriate sanctions, including financial penalties and disciplinary measures, to prevent similar misconduct in the future.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.602764.54.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

On January 23, 2025, a closed hearing was held in the case of State of Idaho v. Bryan C. Kohberger before Judge Steven Hippler. The primary focus was the defense's motion to suppress evidence obtained through Investigative Genetic Genealogy (IGG), which they argued violated Kohberger's Fourth Amendment rights. Detective Brett Payne testified that the IGG lead was treated as a tip, with further independent investigation conducted to substantiate its validity. Defense expert Dr. Leah Larkin suggested potential violations of FBI policy and genealogy database terms of service during the IGG process. However, Judge Hippler expressed skepticism regarding the defense's claims, noting the lack of a reasonable expectation of privacy for DNA left at a crime scene.Following the hearing, Judge Hippler ordered the release of a redacted transcript, balancing public interest with privacy concerns. Redactions included the names of surviving roommates and distant relatives identified through IGG. The unsealed portions provide insight into the investigative methods used and the defense's challenges to the evidence's admissibility. This development underscores the ongoing legal debates surrounding the use of IGG in criminal investigations and its implications for privacy and constitutional rights.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:KB-25-01-23-Hearing-Redacted.eclBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Jeffrey Epstein’s so-called “model visa” scheme was a carefully engineered system that used the glamour of the modeling industry as a cover to import and control young women, many from overseas. Recruiters—often women in his inner circle—lured victims with promises of fashion careers, sometimes backed by legitimate-looking modeling agencies and brand associations like Victoria’s Secret. Once targeted, women were moved through a network of immigration loopholes, sham marriages, and legal paperwork that appeared legitimate to authorities. Epstein’s connections to modeling agents such as Jean-Luc Brunel expanded his international reach, while his money paid for immigration lawyers, housing, and travel to keep the operation running without attracting suspicion. This infrastructure allowed him to maintain a steady supply of victims under the protection of legal status, making escape difficult and silence almost certain.The system thrived in the blind spots between law enforcement agencies, exploiting the fact that visa fraud and marriage records are rarely scrutinized unless tied to larger investigations. Even after Epstein’s death, elements of this network remain intact: lawyers, recruiters, and agencies still in operation, and government files containing the hidden paper trail. Survivors face lingering consequences—fraudulent marriages, precarious immigration status, and the trauma of having their lives rewritten on paper to mask abuse. The scheme’s success shows how predators can twist legitimate systems into tools of exploitation, offering a blueprint that could be reused unless those vulnerabilities are confronted and closed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
