How 4Chan Scooped The Legacy Media The Morning Of Jeffrey Epstein's Death
In the early hours of August 10, 2019, an anonymous user on the 4chan message board (specifically the /pol/ board) posted that Epstein had died by hanging and cardiac arrest—writing, “Don’t ask me how I know, but Epstein died an hour ago…” The post appeared at 8:16 a.m. ET, approximately 38–40 minutes before ABC News correspondent Aaron Katersky tweeted the news at around 8:54 a.m. ET, followed by an ABC story at about 9:00 a.m. This unusual timing sparked intrigue, as it suggested someone may have had unusually early—or insider—knowledge of the event.Despite speculation, the New York Fire Department confirmed that the information did not come from any FDNY personnel or official source. No verification of the poster’s identity surfaced, and the claim remains unsubstantiated—with media and investigators treating it as an unverified tip rather than a credible leak. The episode nonetheless highlighted the rapid power of anonymous online platforms to circulate high-profile news before traditional media catches up, fuelling conspiracy theories and public unease.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/janelytvynenko/fdny-review-jeffrey-epstein-4chan-postBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Ghislaine Maxwell Tapes: Transcripts From Ghislaine Maxwell DOJ Interview (Part 14) (8/28/25)
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.

Moring Update: Peter Thiel, Ehud Barak, and the Billionaire Spy Circle (Part 2) (8/28/25)
In the final years of his life, Jeffrey Epstein attempted to reinvent himself as a player in the surveillance and security-tech industry. Newly leaked emails from Ehud Barak’s inbox show Epstein’s interest in Reporty Homeland Security (now Carbyne) and his attempts to build ties with figures like Peter Thiel, former Israeli intelligence officials, and even individuals connected to Vladimir Putin’s inner circle. Epstein used these connections to push into Silicon Valley through funds such as Valar Ventures and Founders Fund, while simultaneously promoting himself as a bridge between high-tech innovation, private wealth, and the geopolitics of surveillance.The leaks also reveal Epstein’s maneuvering in Russia, where he connected Barak with Sergey Belyakov and presented himself as a nonpolitical facilitator able to skirt sanctions and open doors to oligarch networks. He circulated articles on cyberwarfare, emergency management, and Israeli Unit 8200 to maintain relevance in the intelligence conversation. Collectively, these documents portray Epstein as more than just a disgraced financier—he was actively embedding himself in the global spy-tech ecosystem right up until his downfall.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Inside Jeffrey Epstein’s spy industry connectionsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Prince Andrew And Origin Story Of The Disastrous BBC Interview (8/28/25)
The infamous Prince Andrew BBC Newsnight interview—widely seen as a catastrophic PR disaster—came about through months of behind-the-scenes maneuvering. Emily Maitlis and producer Sam McAlister had been pursuing Andrew’s team for an interview for years, sensing that his ties to Jeffrey Epstein would eventually demand answers. McAlister, known for her persistence, managed to gain the trust of Buckingham Palace courtiers and convinced them that a sit-down would provide Andrew with the chance to clear his name and demonstrate transparency. The Prince and his advisors, astonishingly confident in his ability to explain away damning allegations, ultimately agreed, believing this would be the definitive rebuttal to growing scrutiny over his relationship with Epstein and Virginia Giuffre.What followed, of course, was the exact opposite: a masterclass in self-destruction. Andrew infamously claimed he couldn’t sweat, insisted a Pizza Express outing proved his innocence, and showed more sympathy for Epstein than for survivors. The decision to grant the interview—conceived as a reputational rescue mission—was the result of staggering arrogance and tone-deafness within the royal circle. Palace aides, who expected a controlled narrative, failed to recognize that Andrew’s own words would expose him as evasive, entitled, and profoundly out of touch. Far from salvaging his image, the interview sealed his disgrace, forcing him to withdraw from royal duties and leaving the monarchy scrambling to contain the fallout.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10974711/New-excruciating-details-Andrews-car-crash-Newsnight-interview-revealed.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: The USVI's Memo In Support Of Excluding Expert Testimony From JP Morgan (Part 3-4) (8/28/25)
The U.S. Virgin Islands’ Memorandum in Support of Excluding Expert Testimony from JP Morgan was a direct strike at the bank’s legal strategy of hiding behind highly paid specialists to sanitize its conduct. The filing argued that JP Morgan’s proposed experts weren’t there to provide neutral, technical insight—they were being deployed to confuse the jury, shift blame, and whitewash the bank’s longstanding financial relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The USVI pointed out that these experts attempted to dress up common sense issues—like due diligence, suspicious transactions, and regulatory compliance—as matters of complex banking science, when in reality the facts spoke plainly: the bank continued to profit off Epstein long after his 2008 conviction and obvious red flags. In essence, the memorandum framed JP Morgan’s “experts” as mouthpieces meant to cloud responsibility, not clarify it.By moving to bar this testimony, the USVI was making a broader argument about accountability. If JP Morgan was allowed to weaponize expert witnesses to downplay its failures, the survivors’ pursuit of justice would be buried under jargon and pseudo-objectivity. The memorandum emphasized that letting these experts testify would not only mislead the jury but also distort the purpose of the trial, turning it into a battle of résumés rather than a reckoning with the bank’s choices. The USVI’s position was clear: the facts don’t need interpretation from consultants paid millions to protect a financial giant—they need to be weighed on their own merits. This was an attempt to strip away the camouflage JP Morgan hoped to use, forcing the court to confront the bank’s role in sustaining Epstein’s trafficking operation without distraction or distortion.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.591653.289.0_2.pdf (courtlistener.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
