That Time Jeffrey Epstein Tried To Influence The Age Of Consent Laws In The US Virgin Islands

Jeffrey Epstein tried to manipulate the laws governing sex-offender oversight and age-of-consent enforcement in the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI) — in a way that would benefit him personally. According to court filings and public reporting, a powerful figure in the territory’s government, Cecile de Jongh (then-First Lady of the USVI), allegedly approached Epstein for his approval on draft legislation intended to govern sex-offenders. She purportedly sent him a version of a proposed bill and asked: “Will it work for you?” Epstein then made edits favorable to his freedom of movement and privacy — for example limiting how the law would track or publicize who he stayed with, and how long he was abroad. That proposed legislation never became law; but the attempt itself shows how Epstein used political influence inside the USVI to try to reshape laws in his favor.


The broader allegation is that this legal tampering was part of a quid-pro-quo relationship between Epstein and high-ranking officials in the territory, who reportedly accepted his money, tax-breaks, and other favors while looking the other way as Epstein ferried in under-age girls to his private island, Little Saint James. Through that influence over legislation and local governance, Epstein allegedly sought to water down oversight and monitoring — effectively giving him greater freedom to move girls in and out of the territory without drawing attention. This manipulation of the law helped create a permissive environment for his broader sex-trafficking and abuse network in the USVI.

Ghislaine Maxwell Likened Girls To 'Candy' According To A Former Friend

Ghislaine Maxwell Likened Girls To 'Candy' According To A Former Friend

According to the anonymous former friend quoted in a detailed profile of Maxwell, Maxwell treated the girls she procured for Jeffrey Epstein as disposable objects — using language that reduced them to commodities rather than human beings. As reported in one long-form investigation, Maxwell reportedly said of underage girls, “they’re nothing, these girls … they are trash.” The friend claimed these girls were viewed as playthings: something to be consumed, used, and discarded at will, like “candy.” Maxwell’s alleged jaded, detached attitude toward the girls — calling them “trash” — marked a deliberate dehumanization: she allegedly saw them not as people with dignity but as instruments for gratification, social leverage, and profit.This alleged mindset — of treating victims as candy — suggests Maxwell not just facilitated exploitation but psychologically conditioned both herself and her circle to view the girls as disposable. According to the former friend’s account, Maxwell emphasized that underage girls were easy, replaceable, and worth exalting only until Epstein or someone else no longer needed them. That callousality supposedly underpinned the operations: grooming, trafficking, and abuse carried out without empathy or remorse, stripping victims of their agency and humanity. Under this framing, victims were not people — they were objects to be used and discarded — which underscores why many survivors and observers view Maxwell as more directly culpable than just an enabler: she was an enabler who actively internalized and imposed dehumanizing rationales for exploitation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell's Terra Mar Project And The Alleged Funding By The Clinton's

Ghislaine Maxwell's Terra Mar Project And The Alleged Funding By The Clinton's

The newly unsealed court filing shows that Ghislaine Maxwell and her attorneys fought aggressively to block discovery into her finances, specifically objecting to requests seeking detailed information about potential funding for her nonprofit, The TerraMar Project, from the Clinton Foundation and related Clinton entities. In the filing, Maxwell’s legal team argued that the request for financial documents was excessively broad and inappropriate, stating that it demanded “literally every piece of financial information about Ms. Maxwell” over a two-year period, extending beyond her personal accounts to nonprofit organizations she was involved in. The filing explicitly names potential financial ties to the Clinton Global Initiative, the Clinton Foundation, and the Clinton Foundation Climate Change Initiative as areas plaintiffs were seeking to examine — suggesting that attorneys believed there may have been donations or financial support flowing from Clinton-controlled organizations into Maxwell’s charity.Maxwell’s attorneys claimed that the discovery request was designed to “harass and embarrass” their client rather than legitimately assess her net worth for punitive-damages purposes, and insisted that the scope of inquiry was disproportionate and irrelevant. By attempting to shut down any questioning about whether TerraMar received funding from Clinton-linked organizations, the filing effectively reveals that such funding was considered a sensitive issue worth shielding from public scrutiny. While the filing does not confirm whether the Clintons did or did not provide such funding, the legal effort to prevent disclosure highlights the level of concern surrounding potential ties between Maxwell’s nonprofit and the Clinton philanthropic network — and raises questions about why those financial records were viewed as too damaging to expose.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Clinton Foundation Funded Ghislaine Maxwell Charity Despite Underage Victims' Rape Allegations: Unsealed DocsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Denise George And The Failed Attempt To Depose The Executors Of Epstein's Estate

Denise George And The Failed Attempt To Depose The Executors Of Epstein's Estate

Former U.S. Virgin Islands Attorney General Denise George attempted to depose Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime executors, Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn, as part of her civil lawsuit alleging that Epstein operated a criminal trafficking enterprise out of the USVI with the assistance of powerful financial institutions and enablers. George argued that Indyke and Kahn were more than just estate administrators—claiming they were deeply embedded within Epstein’s financial and logistical operations, and therefore possessed critical knowledge regarding the movement of money, the recruitment structure, and potential co-conspirators. She sought sworn testimony that could clarify how assets were handled before and after Epstein’s death, as well as whether the executors helped facilitate Epstein’s access to victims or participated in concealing criminal conduct.However, her attempt ultimately fell apart when Indyke and Kahn’s legal teams aggressively fought the depositions, arguing attorney-client privilege, Fifth Amendment protections, and irrelevance to the civil claims at issue. The court did not compel testimony before George was abruptly removed from her position by Governor Albert Bryan—just days after she filed a major lawsuit against JPMorgan and announced intentions to dig deeper into Epstein’s financial network. Without her authority behind the push, the effort to force the executors under oath collapsed, leaving many to wonder whether political pressure and institutional fear of what they might reveal played a role in shutting the door. The result: the two people who arguably know more than almost anyone about Epstein’s inner workings have never had to answer a single public question under oath about what they saw and what they did.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

How Did Maxwell And Epstein Escape RICO Charges?

How Did Maxwell And Epstein Escape RICO Charges?

In a comparison that continues to disturb a lot of people paying attention, the charges filed against R. Kelly versus those filed against Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell reveal a glaring imbalance in how the federal government chooses to deploy its most powerful legal tools. R. Kelly was charged under RICO—the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act—because federal prosecutors argued that he ran his abuse operation like a criminal enterprise, using managers, bodyguards, assistants, and a network of enablers to recruit and control underage victims. The government treated his inner circle as a coordinated structure, recognizing that the abuse was not random, accidental, or isolated. It was organized. And because of RICO, prosecutors were able to bring in a sweeping range of evidence, establish a conspiracy framework, and secure a conviction that reflected the totality of the crimes and how they were carried out.But when you turn to Epstein and Maxwell—an operation that was global, involved billionaires, prime ministers, presidents, intelligence-linked financiers, private bankers, pilots, recruiters, assistants, secretaries, foundations, shell companies, and a private island—the government suddenly forgot RICO existed. Despite Epstein having a documented network of employees and co-conspirators, flight logs, phone books, funded recruiters, private jets, and a literal island used for trafficking, the DOJ only hit Maxwell with basic sex trafficking counts, while Epstein’s richest, most powerful co-conspirators walked free under a sweetheart non-prosecution agreement. The very definition of RICO—a coordinated criminal enterprise spanning states and countries—describes Epstein’s machine far more clearly than Kelly’s. Yet one got the hammer, and the other got protection. And that is the question that continues to haunt anyone looking at this with a functioning brain: Why was RICO unleashed on a musician, but not on the most well-connected trafficking ring in modern history?to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Happy Thanksgiving  To  All Of You And Your Families (11/27/25)

Happy Thanksgiving To All Of You And Your Families (11/27/25)

As another Thanksgiving rolls around, I want to take a moment to speak directly from the heart and say thank you. I’m fully aware that the most valuable thing any of us have in life is time—and you choose to spend yours here with me, show after show, episode after episode, year after year. That’s not something I take lightly, and it’s not something I’ll ever forget. From the day this journey started, you’ve shown up with passion, curiosity, and backbone, refusing to look away from the uncomfortable truths and refusing to settle for the polished, sanitized version the powerful want you to swallow. You’ve stuck with me through every high and every low, every delay, every late-night rant, every new lead, every twist in this insane story, and I am genuinely humbled.I’m humbled knowing that people across the world—different countries, languages, beliefs, and backgrounds—are united around one demand: Release the Epstein files. That unity is rare, powerful, and historic, and I’m grateful even for the people who listen out of anger or disagreement, because participation means pressure, and pressure is what makes the powerful sweat. Today is for family, rest, and appreciation—for stepping back long enough to remember why we fight at all. I hope everyone gets to spend the day with people who bring warmth and peace into their life. But tomorrow, the swords come back out. Tomorrow, we push harder. Tomorrow, we demand justice like we always have. We’re nowhere near finished, and I’m not going anywhere.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Thanksgiving at Camp Bryan:   A Ghislaine Maxwell Holiday Tale (11/27/25)

Thanksgiving at Camp Bryan: A Ghislaine Maxwell Holiday Tale (11/27/25)

In one of the most insulting displays of federal favoritism imaginable, Ghislaine Maxwell is spending Thanksgiving at Camp Bryan—one of the cushiest, most privilege-soaked facilities in the entire federal prison system—complete with a full holiday feast and even a turkey leg if she wants it. The outrage isn’t about inmates receiving a decent meal; it’s about who is receiving it. While survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and Maxwell spend the holiday grieving lost daughters, destroyed families, empty seats at dinner tables, and trauma that never ends, Maxwell strolls through a buffet line like she’s at a luxury resort, living comfortably and protected instead of facing the harsh consequences her crimes demand. It’s a grotesque inversion of justice that any reasonable person can recognize without needing legal expertise or secret documents: this is reward, not punishment; privilege, not accountability.The decision to move her to Camp Bryan was deliberate and strategic, not random or procedural. It was the latest phase in a years-long cover-up that consistently protects the powerful while gaslighting the public and exhausting survivors into silence. Watching the woman who facilitated industrial-scale abuse of minors enjoy a holiday feast and spa-like amenities is a slap directly to the faces of those who lost everything. It’s a crystal-clear example of how the justice system bends for elites, working swiftly when it benefits the well-connected and stalling endlessly when victims demand truth. While families light candles for children who will never come home, the federal government serves Maxwell dessert. If anything proves the system is broken beyond repair, it’s this grotesque Thanksgiving celebration dressed up as incarceration.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Did Jeffrey Epstein Plan On Having Prince Andrew  And Fergie 'Whacked'?  (11/27/25)

Did Jeffrey Epstein Plan On Having Prince Andrew And Fergie 'Whacked'? (11/27/25)

According to Andrew Lownie — as discussed on a recent podcast interview and in media coverage of his new book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York — Epstein reportedly became “increasingly paranoid” toward the end of his life, fearing exposure. Lownie claims that Epstein “spoke to a hitman who was a former member of a British special-forces unit,” i.e. an ex-SAS sniper, and allegedly sought to hire him to “silence” Prince Andrew, Duke of York and Sarah Ferguson (his ex-wife) — supposedly to prevent them from disclosing damaging information about Epstein’s crimes. Lownie says the allegation comes from two sources, including a former FBI agent and a source in Paris.Lownie further argues that if the plot had been real and had advanced beyond talk, the potential assassination of a royal couple would dramatically reframe how far Epstein’s reach went — from sex-trafficking financier to someone allegedly willing to murder to protect his network. He also suggests this may help explain continuing ties: that fear — not just convenience — may have motivated ongoing contacts between Epstein and people like Ferguson, even after Epstein’s conviction.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein 'plotted to hire ex-SAS sniper to silence the Yorks when he feared his crimes could be exposed'Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

How the FBI Spent Nearly a Million Dollars to “Accidentally” Expose Epstein’s Victims (11/27/25)

How the FBI Spent Nearly a Million Dollars to “Accidentally” Expose Epstein’s Victims (11/27/25)

Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein — through their lawyers — have strongly condemned the recent release of documents by U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) that left dozens of their names unredacted. Their attorneys argue that this is not just negligence, but a gross violation of their dignity and privacy: “These women are not political pawns,” the filing reads, emphasizing that many of the victims are “mothers, wives, and daughters,” and that exposing their identities without consent — especially when some were minors at the time of abuse — re-victimizes them and undermines any promise of protection.Moreover, the lawyers warn that the scope of the oversight failure suggests the DOJ “either does not know the identities of all the victims … and thus cannot apply proper redactions,” or is “intentionally failing to protect victims from public exposure.” They’re pressing a federal judge to demand a more robust redaction process — including asking the DOJ for a full list of known victims so they can ensure no one else is inadvertently exposed.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Law firm representing alleged Epstein victims sends scathing letter over DOJ document release - ABC NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
