Former U.S. Virgin Islands Attorney General Denise George aggressively pursued a civil racketeering (CICO) investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s operations in the territory, focusing on how he used his private island, banks, and shell companies as part of a trafficking network. As part of that effort, she issued a wide wave of subpoenas targeting some of the most powerful players connected to Epstein’s financial web, including banking giants like JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank, as well as figures tied to his estate and charitable foundations. George sought extensive records on accounts, transfers, and relationships that could demonstrate not just Epstein’s individual crimes but a broader pattern of institutional complicity.The scope of her subpoenas rattled both Wall Street and political elites, because it suggested her office was building a case that Epstein had not acted alone—that there were enablers and beneficiaries. Critics allege that her firing in early 2023 by the Virgin Islands’ governor, announced just days after she filed suit against JPMorgan, was directly connected to her aggressive tactics. While she is no longer in office, her investigations laid the groundwork for ongoing litigation by the Virgin Islands government, which has since extracted large settlements from banks and forced disclosures that continue to reveal how deep Epstein’s financial ties ran.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Juror #50, identified publicly as Scotty David, became a focal point of controversy after Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial. Before the trial, on his juror questionnaire, he answered “no” when asked if he or any close relation had ever been the victim of sexual abuse. But after the verdict, David gave interviews saying he had been sexually abused as a child, and that during jury deliberations he shared parts of that experience to help other jurors understand how memory and trauma work—insisting his personal history informed their view of witness testimony.Maxwell’s defense seized on those revelations, demanding a new trial on the grounds that David’s omission and his post-trial statements suggested bias and a failure of the Court’s vetting process. In response, Judge Alison Nathan held a hearing, granted David immunity to answer questions, and ultimately ruled that his misstatement was an “inadvertent mistake” (not a deliberate lie) and did not prove that he was unable to be fair or had tainted the verdict. The appellate court later agreed, rejecting the retrial request, concluding that David’s presence on the jury did not, under law, amount to a violation of Maxwell’s right to a fair jury.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Les Wexner, the billionaire founder of L Brands and Victoria’s Secret, has alleged that Jeffrey Epstein stole millions of dollars from him while serving as his personal money manager. Wexner gave Epstein sweeping power of attorney in the early 1990s, allowing him control over financial and real estate transactions. When Wexner severed ties with him in 2007, he said he discovered that Epstein had misappropriated a significant amount of money, with at least $46 million identified as funds taken without authorization. Wexner claimed that some of this money was supposed to support his charitable foundation but was instead diverted by Epstein.Despite the large sum, Wexner has never disclosed the full extent of what was allegedly stolen, nor has he clarified why Epstein was granted such unchecked financial authority. Reports suggest that Epstein’s control over Wexner’s finances allowed him to access charitable funds and move money with little oversight. Wexner has publicly insisted that he was one of Epstein’s victims, but critics have pointed out that he has never fully explained how such theft went unnoticed for years or whether authorities were ever asked to investigate the alleged financial misconduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://abcnews.go.com/US/billionaire-businessman-leslie-wexner-refuses-reveal-full-scope/story?id=68461262Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Denise George, the former Attorney General of the U.S. Virgin Islands, took a highly aggressive approach in pursuing Jeffrey Epstein’s financial network, using subpoenas as her primary weapon. Her office demanded records from major banks—including JPMorgan Chase, Deutsche Bank, and Citibank—seeking detailed information on Epstein’s accounts, shell companies, and offshore structures. She also extended subpoenas to powerful financiers like Leon Black and his firm Apollo Global Management, as well as Glenn Dubin and his wife, requiring them to produce financial statements and communications tied to their dealings with Epstein. These subpoenas aimed to uncover the hidden channels through which Epstein moved money, secured influence, and allegedly funded his trafficking operation.The broader intent behind George’s subpoenas was not just to secure financial restitution from Epstein’s estate, but to expose the web of enablers who may have knowingly or unknowingly facilitated his crimes. Her legal filings accused Epstein and his entities of running a criminal enterprise involving sex trafficking, forced labor, and aggravated sexual assault in the Virgin Islands. By targeting banks and billionaires alike, George’s subpoenas sent a clear message: Epstein’s power was built on institutional complicity, and the only way to dismantle it was to follow the money wherever it led.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
