The LISK Files: The Arrest Of Rex Heuermann

After Epstein’s death, the SEC opened a probe into whether his network or affiliated entities had been operating as unregistered brokers or investment advisers, particularly focusing on whether he provided financial services or investment advice without proper registration and oversight. The inquiry looked at how Epstein’s complex web of trusts, funds, offshore entities, and financial relationships might have skirted regulatory requirements, and whether investors or third-parties were exposed to irregularities. Though the investigation’s full scope, findings, and status remain largely non-public, the existence of the probe marks one of the few regulatory actions documented in the wake of Epstein’s criminal and financial scandals.Rumors have long circulated that Jeffrey Epstein served as a confidential informant or “snitch” for government and intelligence agencies, beginning as far back as his Wall Street days at Bear Stearns, where he was alleged to have cooperated with federal investigators during financial-crime inquiries, including insider-trading probes. Additional allegations claim that Epstein was later protected because he provided information to U.S. authorities and possibly foreign intelligence networks, including suggestions of ties to the CIA, FBI, and Israeli Mossad. These rumors intensified after his 2008 sweetheart plea deal and again following his death, with whistleblowers, journalists, former prosecutors, and survivor advocates arguing that such preferential treatment only made sense if Epstein was leveraging intelligence value. According to these allegations, Epstein’s trafficking network doubled as an influence-operation designed to collect kompromat on powerful political, financial, and academic figures, giving him leverage and explaining why investigations into him were repeatedly derailed or buried.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

After Jeffrey Epstein was arrested, his financial network and influence didn’t collapse—in fact, many of his money channels remained active and parts of his wealth stayed in demand. Banks and service providers continued handling large sums connected to him even when his reputation had become toxic. Reports surfaced showing that litigation and investigations revealed he had hundreds of millions in assets, multiple bank accounts, and a network of offshore vehicles that were still being managed or utilised. Some wealthy clients and institutions apparently accepted exposure to his funds because the prestige, access, or investment potential outweighed the reputational risk. Epstein’s business and social apparatus, though under scrutiny, proved resilient—his name still carried weight in some elite financial circles despite everything stacked against him.Meanwhile, Ghislaine Maxwell—his long-time associate—allegedly kept clandestine lines of contact with him, even while he was under arrest or legal threat. Email records and internal correspondence published later suggested that Maxwell and Epstein exchanged messages about strategy, legal exposure, finances, and social-network management, indicating she remained involved behind the scenes. Although she publicly distanced herself from his criminal activities, the evidence points to her operating quietly—handling logistics, maintaining joint accounts, and performing coordination work that kept his sphere intact. Her role appears to have shifted from visible socialite to shadow operator, preserving their connection and helping sustain elements of his empire when open ties would have drawn too much attention.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

From court filings and investigative reporting, several major banks are accused of ignoring blatant red flags in Epstein’s account activity that indicated potential money laundering, fraud, and sex-trafficking financing. For example, a complaint lodged against Deutsche Bank alleges that between 2013 and 2018 the bank provided Epstein and his related entities with financial infrastructure—opening dozens of accounts and enabling large cash flows—even while compliance officers flagged the activity as suspect. The complaint claims the bank “knowingly and intentionally benefitted financially … with knowledge, or in reckless disregard of the fact, that Epstein used means of force, threats of force, fraud, coercion, abuse of process … to cause young women and girls to engage in commercial sex acts.”Meanwhile, other institutions such as JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Bank of America have been cited in lawsuits and regulatory letters for allegedly processing more than $1 billion in transactions linked to Epstein, failing to timely file Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs), and continuing business relationships with him well beyond his first conviction in 2008. In one case, the bank reportedly flagged 4,700 transactions tied to Epstein after his death in 2019 but only filed the SAR weeks later, which critics argue allowed his trafficking operation to expand unchecked.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 early 2000s, former U.S. Senate Majority Leader and diplomat George J. Mitchell was publicly associated with Jeffrey Epstein and was identified in media reports as part of Epstein’s influential social circle. Epstein referred to Mitchell as a close acquaintance and supporter, while Mitchell acknowledged that Epstein had donated to charitable causes he was involved with. Correspondence later found among Epstein’s personal files — including a handwritten letter believed to be from Mitchell — further highlighted the degree of familiarity between the two men. Mitchell has consistently emphasized that his interactions with Epstein were limited to fundraising and political or philanthropic contexts, and that he was unaware of Epstein’s criminal conduct until it became public.The controversy escalated in 2019 when unsealed court documents revealed that Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s accusers, alleged that Epstein trafficked her to several prominent men — naming Mitchell among them. Giuffre claimed she was forced to perform sexual acts with Mitchell while under Epstein’s control. Mitchell vehemently denied the accusations, stating he had never met Giuffre and had no involvement in any trafficking or abuse, calling the allegations “false.” He has not been charged with any crime, and no legal case has been brought forward against him, but the allegation and association with Epstein have generated sustained scrutiny and reputational damage. Mitchell maintains he has “never observed anything improper” and has condemned Epstein’s crimes.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome 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.

In her deposition on March 15, 2010, Ross was questioned extensively about her relationship with Epstein and individuals in his orbit, including the role of recruiting young women for massages and possible sexual contact. She was asked whether she ever used the term “massage” as a euphemism, whether she personally arranged for young women (including minors) to meet Epstein, and whether she benefited financially or materially from such arrangements. Ross repeatedly invoked her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination when asked substantive questions about her own conduct in connection with Epstein’s sexual-abuse network, declining to answer many questions about the details of her involvement.Ross was also asked about her knowledge of Epstein’s associates and activities, including whether she was aware of certain flights, properties, and contacts used by Epstein’s organization for transporting, lodging or grooming associates. The deposition records show that many of these questions were met with silence or non-responses, as Ross declined to answer on advice of counsel or invoked the Fifth. The lack of direct testimony from Ross thus left significant gaps in the civil case’s ability to pin down the full details of her role.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
