Mega Edition: Jeffrey Epstein Loses His Fight For Bail (Part 3-5) (1/25/26)

Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, the former leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, has had his appeal to overturn his 2019 life sentence rejected by a U.S. court. Guzman was convicted on charges including drug trafficking, operating a criminal enterprise, and firearms violations. His legal team argued that his trial was unfair due to jury misconduct and the harsh conditions of his solitary confinement, which they claimed impacted his ability to mount a defense.Despite these arguments, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the original verdict, praising the trial judge's management of the high-profile case and rejecting the claims of juror misconduct. The court also dismissed the argument regarding Guzman's solitary confinement, stating it did not infringe on his right to a fair trial.In this episode, we take a look at the DOJ's El Chapo Brief.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Chapo-ca2-us-brief.pdf (courthousenews.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

At its core, this hypocrisy dovetails perfectly with the Epstein coverup because it reveals the same moral collapse that allows powerful institutions to operate without accountability while their defenders selectively invoke “law and order” only when it protects the state. The same voices who excuse a federal agent killing a legally armed citizen now are often the same ones who waved away the sweetheart plea deal, the sealed records, the missing cameras, the sleeping guards, and the vanishing evidence in Epstein’s case. In both situations, the pattern is identical: when the federal government abuses power against ordinary people, the so-called defenders of liberty suddenly become apologists for authority. When Epstein was protected, the system closed ranks, hid documents, misled courts, silenced victims, and insulated its own. When Pretti was killed, the instinct was the same: suppress oversight, shape the narrative, block investigators, and demand blind trust in federal actors. The Constitution becomes decorative when power is at stake, and rights become conditional when they interfere with institutional protection. In both cases, the message is unmistakable: there are citizens, and then there are subjects, and the line between them is drawn by who the government decides to protect and who it decides to sacrifice.This is what an out-of-control federal government actually looks like, not tanks in the streets, but bureaucracies that operate above consequence while their defenders cheer them on in the name of security, borders, or order. Epstein was not an accident of justice, he was a product of a system that learned it could hide crimes, bury evidence, intimidate oversight, and survive public outrage if it waited long enough. The shooting of Pretti shows that the same machinery now feels comfortable exercising lethal force first and explaining later, knowing that a loyal political audience will rationalize anything so long as the target is politically convenient. This is how republics rot, not in dramatic coups, but in quiet normalization of unchecked power. When people who once screamed about jack-booted thugs now celebrate federal executions, they are not defending the Constitution, they are surrendering it. The Epstein coverup and this killing are not separate scandals, they are symptoms of the same disease: a federal apparatus that no longer fears oversight, no longer respects limits, and no longer believes the Constitution applies when its own authority is on the line.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In the 2017 video deposition of Courtney E. Wild, taken as part of the civil case Epstein v. Rothstein in the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit Court of Florida, Wild testified under oath about her personal background, criminal history, and relevant circumstances before the court began substantive questions. The early portion of the deposition focuses on Wild’s identity and personal history, including her marriage, family situation, and her own past convictions, including a drug trafficking conviction for which she was serving a sentence at the Gadsden Correctional Facility in Florida at the time of the deposition. Wild was sworn in and answered basic biographical questions about her life prior to moving into the heart of the civil litigation against Epstein’s representatives and others, establishing her presence and credibility as a witness in the case’s factual recordto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:1027.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Alan Dershowitz’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein has drawn sustained criticism because it went far beyond a routine attorney-client connection and placed one of the country’s most famous legal scholars directly inside the machinery that protected a serial sex trafficker. Dershowitz was a prominent member of Epstein’s legal team during the 2008 non-prosecution agreement, a deal that secretly dismantled a federal trafficking case, shielded unnamed co-conspirators, and denied victims their rights under federal law. He publicly defended Epstein as a misunderstood figure, vouched for his character, and helped craft legal strategies that minimized consequences and discredited accusers, even as mounting evidence showed systematic abuse of underage girls. Critics argue that Dershowitz did not merely provide representation but actively participated in the legal architecture that allowed Epstein to continue offending, and in doing so lent elite credibility to one of the most damaging plea bargains in modern criminal history. His repeated insistence that the case was weak, complex, or unfairly portrayed has been widely condemned as revisionist and dismissive of survivor testimony.The relationship became even more controversial when Virginia Giuffre accused Dershowitz himself of sexual abuse, alleging that Epstein trafficked her to him when she was underage — an allegation Dershowitz has fiercely denied and fought through years of litigation, ultimately reaching a settlement without an admission of wrongdoing. Regardless of legal outcomes, critics say his public posture since then has only deepened distrust: he has repeatedly attacked accusers, questioned the credibility of survivors, and portrayed himself as a victim of conspiracy while continuing to defend Epstein’s network and minimize institutional failures. To many observers, Dershowitz embodies the very culture that enabled Epstein — a powerful insider using legal prestige to protect privilege, intimidate victims, and blur the line between advocacy and obstruction. His role is now inseparable from the scandal itself, not as a peripheral defender, but as one of the central architects of the legal shield that allowed Epstein’s crimes to persist unchecked for years.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In July 2019, following his arrest on federal sex trafficking and conspiracy charges, Jeffrey Epstein was formally ordered remanded to custody after a detention hearing before Judge Richard Berman. Prosecutors argued that Epstein’s extraordinary wealth, private planes, offshore residences, and history of evading consequences made him an overwhelming flight risk. They also stressed that his release would pose a danger to the community, citing sworn testimony from multiple accusers and evidence that he had used money and influence to obstruct accountability in the past. Despite his defense offering an unprecedented bail package—including $100 million bond, house arrest under armed guard, and electronic monitoring—the court determined that no conditions could ensure his appearance in court or protect the public.Judge Berman’s written order underscored the seriousness of the charges and the strength of the evidence, including testimony that Epstein had sexually abused underage girls and facilitated a broad trafficking network. The court rejected the defense’s argument that strict bail conditions would suffice, ruling instead that the only way to guarantee community safety and secure Epstein’s presence at trial was to deny release altogether. With that, Epstein was remanded to the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan, where he would remain in custody until his death a month later.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
