What 62 Million Dollars Buys A Jeffrey Epstein Associate In The USVI

What 62 Million Dollars Buys A Jeffrey Epstein Associate In The USVI

In July 2023, billionaire Leon Black, co-founder of Apollo Global Management, agreed to pay roughly $62.5 million to the U.S. Virgin Islands to resolve potential claims tied to his financial dealings with Jeffrey Epstein. The USVI had been pursuing Epstein’s estate and associates for enabling or benefiting from his trafficking network, and Black was facing scrutiny over large payments made to Epstein’s companies for so-called “financial advice.” The settlement gave Black immunity from criminal liability in the USVI and ended the possibility of a lawsuit there, though it did not include an admission of wrongdoing. Black has consistently said the payments were legitimate professional fees and that he had no knowledge of Epstein’s crimes.


The deal, however, did not put all questions to rest. Around the same time, the Senate Finance Committee, led by Senator Ron Wyden, released documents showing Black paid Epstein far more than originally known—over $150 million between 2012 and 2017—sparking deeper concerns that such vast sums may have indirectly financed Epstein’s operations. The revelations intensified scrutiny not only of Black’s judgment but also of whether banks and institutions involved properly flagged or investigated the transactions. While the $62 million settlement resolved matters with the Virgin Islands, it left lingering doubts about the true nature of Black’s relationship with Epstein and whether full accountability was ever reached.

Cell Block 9: Epstein’s Alleged Attack Behind Bars And The Man He Accused Of It (Part 1) (9/22/25)

Cell Block 9: Epstein’s Alleged Attack Behind Bars And The Man He Accused Of It (Part 1) (9/22/25)

Jeffrey Epstein claimed that in the early hours of July 23, 2019, his cellmate Nicholas Tartaglione—an ex-cop then awaiting trial for multiple murders—tried to kill him. According to corrections officers’ logs, Epstein was found in his cell in a fetal position, barely responsive, with orange fabric tied around his neck. He initially told officers he believed Tartaglione attacked him, alleging threats and pressure to pay up, fear of violence because of his charges, and that Tartaglione had been harassing him. But Epstein later retracted that claim, saying he couldn’t remember exactly what happened.Investigations into the incident have raised doubts about what actually took place. The Metropolitan Correctional Center’s video system either didn’t capture the event or footage was missing. Jail staff and psychologists have considered several possibilities: that Epstein was assaulted, but also that the event could have been a suicide attempt—whether planned, practiced, or accidental—or something else altogether. The lack of clear evidence, conflicting statements from Epstein and Tartaglione, and mislaid video have all contributed to lingering questions.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:The night Jeffrey Epstein claimed his cellmate tried to kill him - CBS NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Inside the Cover-Up: "Agent X" On Why the Epstein Investigation Was Built to Collapse (Part 4) (9/22/25)

Inside the Cover-Up: "Agent X" On Why the Epstein Investigation Was Built to Collapse (Part 4) (9/22/25)

We sit down with Agent X for a second time — not to rehash what was already said, but to dig deeper, press harder, and follow the paper trail farther into the parts of the story that were previously redacted or obscured. This follow-up conversation picks up where the first left off, sharpening lines of inquiry about who is being protected, how institutional mechanisms have worked to bury key records, and what concrete steps might finally force meaningful disclosure and accountability.The conversation with Agent X traced the Epstein investigation across its major fault lines: the current state of play, the suffocating role of politics, the systemic cover-up, and the powerful figures still being shielded. Agent X detailed how congressional hearings and DOJ disclosures amount to theater, offering redacted documents and staged outrage instead of prosecutions. Survivors have forced banks and institutions into settlements, but payouts have replaced accountability, and every redaction is another betrayal. The money trail — offshore accounts, banks turning a blind eye, hush payments disguised as philanthropy — remains the most dangerous evidence, one the system is determined to bury.Agent X described the machinery of the cover-up: the 2008 non-prosecution deal, sealed court filings, confidentiality clauses, compliant judges, cowardly prosecutors, political grandstanding, and media complicity. The likelihood of indictments for the most powerful players is slim without whistleblowers or leaks; the public should brace for more managed exposure and controlled disclosures. The core message was blunt — this case is a mirror showing that the system does not fail by accident but is structured to protect power. The only path to true accountability is relentless pressure: force the cracks wider, document by document, name by name.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition:  Sarah Ferguson And Her Tireless Defense Of Prince Andrew (9/22/25)

Mega Edition: Sarah Ferguson And Her Tireless Defense Of Prince Andrew (9/22/25)

Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, has gone out of her way to shield Prince Andrew from the fallout of the Epstein scandal, often stepping into the role of public defender when his reputation has sunk to new lows. She has dismissed or downplayed the seriousness of the allegations against him, framing Andrew as a victim of circumstance rather than a man credibly accused of exploiting his position and maintaining ties with a convicted sex offender. Instead of addressing the gravity of his actions or his disastrous attempts at self-defense, Ferguson has cloaked her support in the language of loyalty, portraying Andrew as misunderstood and unfairly maligned. This pattern of defense has made her look less like a voice of reason and more like an enabler, eager to protect royal image rather than acknowledge harsh truths.Her willingness to defend Andrew in the face of overwhelming public condemnation has only fueled criticism that she, too, is more concerned with preserving proximity to royal privilege than standing on principle. Ferguson has gone so far as to frame Andrew’s disgrace as an unfortunate twist of fate rather than a consequence of his own judgment and associations, a spin that insults survivors and insults the intelligence of the public. By circling the wagons around him, she has become another layer in the wall of protection that Andrew has enjoyed all his life—proof that the royal family’s instinct for self-preservation often trumps accountability. In defending him so vigorously, Ferguson has cemented her own reputation as part of the problem, willing to carry water for a man forever tied to one of the most infamous scandals of the modern monarchy.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Sarah Ferguson And The Fraudster (9/22/25)

Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, was named in High Court documents over large payments linked to Turkish businessman Selman Turk, who is accused of fraud. Records show that Ferguson received £225,000 from a company connected to Turk, while Prince Andrew was sent £750,000, allegedly as part of a wider scheme involving a Turkish woman’s assets. Andrew has since repaid the money, but the case drew scrutiny because the funds were described in varying ways—as a wedding gift to Princess Beatrice, a fee for Ferguson’s ambassador work, or other purposes—raising questions about transparency and judgment.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Darren Indyke And His His Decades At Epstein's Side (9/21/25)

Darren Indyke was allegedly not just Jeffrey Epstein’s personal lawyer—he was one of the key architects who kept the machinery of Epstein’s criminal network running smoothly from behind the scenes. For years, Indyke allegedly managed Epstein’s finances, foundations, and shell companies, helping to funnel money through a maze of entities that concealed the true scope of Epstein’s wealth and influence. He allegedly handled real estate transactions, tax shelters, and corporate filings, all while ensuring that Epstein’s questionable dealings stayed hidden under a veil of legal respectability. In short, Indyke was allegedly the fixer—crafting the paperwork and pulling the strings that gave Epstein’s empire its air of legitimacy while shielding the rot at its core.His role allegedly extended beyond mere legal counsel; Indyke was allegedly an enabler who turned a blind eye—or worse, actively participated—in the systemic exploitation that defined Epstein’s world. He allegedly signed off on financial documents tied to Epstein’s properties where abuse occurred, allegedly managed trusts that benefited associates, and allegedly remained fiercely loyal even after Epstein’s 2008 conviction. Survivors and investigators have long pointed out that without people like Indyke, Epstein could never have operated on the scale he did. The man billed himself as a lawyer, but in practice, he allegedly functioned more like Epstein’s consigliere, oiling the gears of a criminal enterprise that preyed on the vulnerable while cloaking itself in wealth and influence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein And His Great Pal Charlie Rose

Jeffrey Epstein And His Great Pal Charlie Rose

Charlie Rose’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein surfaced through reports that Epstein actively referred young women to Rose’s office, pitching them as “perfect assistants.” Phone logs reportedly showed Epstein making multiple calls to Rose with names and numbers of women, and at least one of those women ended up being hired. That Rose—a veteran journalist with decades in elite media circles—would entertain personnel recommendations from a man notorious for surrounding himself with suspiciously young women is a damning reflection on both his judgment and his willingness to benefit from Epstein’s pipeline of “recruits.” Even absent criminal charges, the association highlights how Epstein’s network infiltrated respectable institutions, with figures like Rose providing an entry point into mainstream legitimacy.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7273553/Jeffrey-Epstein-maintained-network-assistants-Harvey-Weinstein-Bill-Clinton-Charlie-Rose.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein And His Collection Of Explicit Photo's Of Ghislaine Maxwell

Jeffrey Epstein And His Collection Of Explicit Photo's Of Ghislaine Maxwell

Reports from police searches and depositions indicate that Jeffrey Epstein kept numerous sexually explicit photographs in his residences, including images of Ghislaine Maxwell. During a 2005 raid on his Palm Beach mansion, police video showed framed photos of nude women, including one of Maxwell lying naked on a beach. Former house manager John Alessi also testified that Maxwell often photographed topless young women around Epstein’s pool and kept the images in albums, which staff would occasionally discover while cleaning. Additional evidence from safes and CDs seized in later investigations suggested Epstein catalogued sexually suggestive photos, some labeled with names and “nudes,” reinforcing the impression that such images were central to his lifestyle and methods of control.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/10868574/nude-photos-of-ghislaine-maxwell-and-young-woman-displayed-at-jeffrey-epstein-palm-beach-mansion-in-raid-footage/amp/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein Confidante Bill Richardson Passes Away

Jeffrey Epstein Confidante Bill Richardson Passes Away

Bill Richardson, the former New Mexico governor, U.S. Energy Secretary, and U.N. Ambassador, passed away on September 1, 2023, at his summer home in Massachusetts at the age of 75. He died peacefully in his sleep. Richardson was known for his long career in public service, including his work as a diplomat and later through the Richardson Center for Global Engagement, where he focused on international negotiations to free Americans detained abroad. His career was marked by high‐profile roles in both domestic and international politics, and even after leaving elected office, he remained engaged in humanitarian and diplomatic efforts until his passing.Richardson’s name also appeared in unsealed legal documents connected to Jeffrey Epstein. Virginia Giuffre alleged that she was directed by Ghislaine Maxwell to give Richardson a massage, though the filings did not provide concrete evidence, specific dates, or context showing Richardson’s awareness of Epstein’s broader crimes. Richardson and his representatives consistently denied any wrongdoing, and he was never charged, investigated, or designated as a subject in Epstein-related prosecutions. His inclusion in the documents has been viewed by many as more suggestive than substantive, but the association nonetheless lingers in public perception despite his denials and the lack of legal action.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein's alleged sex trafficking victim named Bill Richardson, George Mitchell in newly released documents | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
