Jeffrey Epstein And His Deep And Unexplained Ties To Saudi Arabia (Part 3)
Jeffrey Epstein’s relationship with elements of the Saudi royal family has long hovered in the background of the scandal, rarely explored with the seriousness it deserves. Epstein moved easily within elite Gulf circles during the 1990s and early 2000s, cultivating relationships with Saudi businessmen, royals, and intelligence-adjacent figures under the same vague cover he used everywhere else: finance, philanthropy, and “advising” powerful people. His access was not casual. Epstein traveled repeatedly to Saudi Arabia, hosted Saudi nationals at his properties, and was known to facilitate introductions between Middle Eastern elites and Western political and financial figures. As with many of his relationships, the exact nature of the services he provided remains opaque, but the pattern is familiar: proximity to power, insulation from scrutiny, and an ability to operate across borders with little interference from U.S. authorities.The most disturbing and concrete piece of evidence tying Epstein to Saudi state-level protection surfaced after his 2019 arrest, when law enforcement discovered he was in possession of a Saudi passport. The passport listed a false name but included his photograph, raising immediate red flags about who issued it, why it existed, and how Epstein obtained it. This was not a novelty item or souvenir. Saudi passports are tightly controlled state documents, and possession of one by a non-citizen under an alias strongly suggests official facilitation rather than private forgery. Epstein claimed he used it for travel in the Middle East, yet no serious public accounting has ever been given for how a convicted sex offender and alleged intelligence-linked financier ended up holding sovereign identity documents from a foreign monarchy. Like so much of the Epstein story, the discovery was quickly noted, then quietly sidelined, leaving unanswered questions about foreign intelligence ties, diplomatic cover, and how deep Epstein’s international protection network truly went.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Epstein Files Unsealed: Alex Acosta And His Epstein Interview With OIG Inspectors (Part 9) (1/12/26)
In his interview with the DOJ Office of the Inspector General, Alex Acosta repeatedly framed the 2007–2008 Epstein non-prosecution agreement as a constrained, pragmatic decision made under pressure rather than a deliberate act of favoritism. He told inspectors that Epstein’s defense team, stacked with politically connected and aggressive lawyers, created what he described as a credible threat of a federal indictment collapse if prosecutors pushed too hard. Acosta emphasized that his office believed securing some conviction at the state level was better than risking none at all, and he claimed he was focused on avoiding a scenario where Epstein walked entirely. Throughout the interview, Acosta leaned heavily on the idea that the deal was the product of risk assessment, limited evidence, and internal prosecutorial judgment rather than corruption or improper influence, repeatedly asserting that he acted in good faith.At the same time, the OIG interview exposed glaring gaps and evasions in Acosta’s account, particularly regarding victims’ rights and transparency. He acknowledged that victims were not informed about the existence or finalization of the NPA, but attempted to downplay this as a procedural failure rather than a substantive violation of the Crime Victims’ Rights Act. Acosta also distanced himself from the unusual secrecy of the agreement, suggesting that others in his office handled victim communications and specific drafting decisions. Most damaging, however, was his inability to offer a coherent justification for why Epstein received terms so extraordinary that they effectively shut down federal accountability altogether. The interview left the unmistakable impression of a former U.S. Attorney attempting to launder an indefensible outcome through bureaucratic language, while avoiding responsibility for a deal that insulated Epstein and his network from meaningful scrutiny for more than a decade.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:EFTA00009229.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

From Disgrace to Disaster: The Epstein NPA After the Unsealed Files (1/12/26)
The Jeffrey Epstein non-prosecution agreement was always a disgrace, but the unsealed Epstein files rip away the last remaining excuses and expose it for what it truly was: a calculated surrender by federal prosecutors dressed up as discretion. The NPA didn’t just give Epstein a sweetheart deal, it rewrote the rules of accountability to benefit one man and the powerful people around him. By secretly immunizing unnamed co-conspirators, the agreement functioned less like a plea deal and more like a legal firewall for an entire network. Even before the new disclosures, the NPA stood out as an aberration in federal practice, negotiated in secrecy, hidden from victims, and enforced with almost religious devotion despite Epstein’s repeated violations. What the unsealed internal emails now show is that this wasn’t negligence or incompetence, it was intentional. Prosecutors knew the scope of Epstein’s conduct was far broader than what the agreement covered, yet they deliberately constrained the case to preserve the deal. The NPA wasn’t about conserving resources or securing justice, it was about containment. It ensured Epstein did minimal time, protected his associates from scrutiny, and insulated the DOJ from having to confront what a full investigation would uncover. That alone should have invalidated it. Instead, it was defended for years as if it were sacred text.The OIG interview with Alex Acosta, when read alongside the internal emails, makes the disgrace even more damning. Acosta’s explanations shift, soften, and ultimately collapse under their own weight when confronted with contemporaneous records showing active resistance to broader prosecution. His attempts to frame the NPA as the best option under difficult circumstances don’t survive contact with emails revealing prosecutors discussing how to keep victims in the dark and how to preserve Epstein’s leverage. The unsealed records make clear that Acosta and his office weren’t cornered, they were accommodating. They weren’t overmatched, they were compliant. The NPA didn’t just fail the victims procedurally, it betrayed them deliberately, stripping them of their rights while shielding Epstein’s orbit from exposure. In light of these files, continuing to defend the NPA isn’t just wrong, it’s indefensible. It represents a moment where the DOJ chose institutional convenience and elite protection over justice, and then spent years pretending it was an unfortunate but reasonable compromise. The emails and OIG interview finally remove the ambiguity. This wasn’t a bad deal that aged poorly. It was a bad deal from day one, designed to make a monster manageable rather than accountable, and it stands as one of the most corrosive failures of federal prosecution in modern history.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Will Les Wexner Ever Appear Before Congress To Be Deposed About His Relationship With Epstein? (1/12/26)
Congress’s House Oversight and Government Reform Committee recently moved to **subpoena billionaire retail executive Les Wexner to sit for a deposition as part of its ongoing investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s network and activities. Lawmakers, led by Rep. Robert Garcia and with support from members on both sides of the aisle, approved subpoenas not only for Wexner but also for Epstein’s longtime lawyer Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn—the co-executors of Epstein’s estate. The panel’s aim is to dig deeper into Epstein’s financial ties and the roles others may have played in enabling or benefiting from his abuses. Wexner, founder and former CEO of what became L Brands (including Victoria’s Secret), had a long financial relationship with Epstein, who managed his personal finances and served as a trustee of his foundation; Wexner has not been accused of criminal wrongdoing but his ties, including reported business arrangements such as selling Epstein one of his properties, have drawn intense scrutiny.Supporters of the subpoenas frame them as a key step in “following the money” and providing accountability to survivors by clarifying the full scope of Epstein’s financial network and relationships. Ranking Member Garcia described the actions as advancing justice and transparency, emphasizing the need to understand how Epstein’s activities were supported or facilitated by powerful associates. The subpoenas reflect broader congressional pressure—including votes to force the Justice Department to release millions of pages of investigatory files—to uncover previously unseen details about Epstein’s connections with elite figures. Wexner’s counsel has said he will “cooperate fully,” noting past cooperation with earlier investigations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:“His wealth should not protect him:” Ohio’s Les Wexner subpoenaed over Epstein connections - cleveland.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
