Lord Mandelson Is Still Being Paid A Tax Payer Funded Salary After His Epstein Related Firing (9/30/25)

Jeffrey Epstein was effectively let off the hook in New Mexico, where he owned the sprawling Zorro Ranch outside Santa Fe. Despite allegations from survivors that abuse took place there, he was never indicted in the state, and authorities never conducted a raid on the property like they did at his Manhattan townhouse or Virgin Islands estate. What made matters worse was that New Mexico’s weak sex-offender registration laws meant Epstein didn’t even have to register there after his 2008 Florida conviction. That loophole gave him the freedom to move in and out of the state largely unnoticed, shielded from the kind of scrutiny that should have followed him everywhere.The New Mexico Attorney General’s office did open inquiries and even pushed to cancel questionable state land leases Epstein had secured for the ranch, but these efforts never translated into criminal charges. Instead, the combination of statutory gaps, lack of enforcement, and jurisdictional hesitation allowed Epstein to keep operating freely in the state. The failure to act decisively in New Mexico has since become a glaring example of how systemic loopholes and institutional inaction enabled Epstein to escape accountability and continue abusing his power.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Goga Ashkenazi, the Kazakh businesswoman and socialite, is known for her close friendship with Prince Andrew. She defended him publicly when scrutiny over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein intensified, saying he was “very, very upset” by how he was being portrayed in the press. Ashkenazi insisted that while Andrew may have exercised poor judgment by associating with controversial figures, she believed he was fundamentally kind-hearted, honourable, and unaware of any illegal activity. She argued that his work as a trade envoy and his character were being unfairly overshadowed by the scandal.Their relationship has also drawn attention due to high-profile financial dealings. Ashkenazi introduced Andrew to Timur Kulibayev, a Kazakh oligarch who purchased Andrew’s former home, Sunninghill Park, for £15 million — significantly above the asking price. The transaction sparked speculation about whether Ashkenazi acted as a facilitator or “fixer,” though she has denied receiving any financial benefit beyond making the introduction. The sale and her staunch defense of Andrew highlight how their friendship has been both personal and entangled in business and controversy.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In 2019, footage allegedly capturing Jeffrey Epstein’s first suicide attempt in his New York jail cell (between July 22–23) was reportedly lost or destroyed. Prosecutors later admitted that the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) “inadvertently preserved video from the wrong tier,” meaning the camera recordings outside the correct cell were never retained.  According to filings, a backup system intended to archive all Special Housing Unit video failed due to “technical errors,” and the preserved recordings showed a different section than requested, such that no footage from the immediate area outside Epstein’s cell existsThe disappearance of that footage fueled intense speculation and conspiracy theories about what really happened to Epstein in jail. The loss raised questions about institutional competence and potential suppression of evidence, especially given the high-stakes nature of his case and the scrutiny it attracted.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Howard Rubin, a retired New York financier, was indicted in September 2025 on a 10-count federal indictment alleging a decade-long sex-trafficking scheme. Prosecutors assert that between 2009 and 2019, Rubin and his former personal assistant, Jennifer Powers, recruited dozens of women—often under false pretenses—to travel to New York for commercial sex acts involving bondage, discipline, dominance, submission, sadomasochism, and other abuses. The indictment claims Rubin controlled a Manhattan penthouse featuring a soundproofed room dubbed “The Dungeon,” equipped with bondage gear and devices that could electrocute victims, and that he often ignored safe words, continued assaults beyond consent, and subjected victims to lasting physical and psychological harm.Alongside the trafficking charges, Rubin also faces a count of bank fraud tied to concealing over $8 million in financing while arranging a mortgage for Powers’ residence. Arrested at his Connecticut home, Rubin pleaded not guilty, but a judge denied bail, citing him as both a flight risk and a danger to others. Powers was separately taken into custody in Texas. If convicted, Rubin faces a mandatory minimum of 15 years and could receive a life sentence, marking one of the most high-profile sex-trafficking prosecutions against a former Wall Street figure.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Financier tied to Soros Fund accused of luring women to NYC ‘sex dungeon’ | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson have found themselves scratched off the guest list for this year’s royal family Christmas at Sandringham, and the reason isn’t exactly a mystery. Andrew’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein continue to poison whatever’s left of his reputation, and the royal household clearly doesn’t want that shadow hanging over their holiday gathering. Even though Sarah isn’t directly connected to the scandal, her long-running closeness with Andrew—still living together, still tied at the hip—makes her guilty by association in the court of public perception. The message is plain enough: they’re not welcome, because their presence would remind the world of a scandal the monarchy would rather bury under the rug.For Andrew, it’s another step in his slow-motion exile. He’s already been stripped of titles, sidelined from public life, and reduced to a background figure who occasionally pops up to embarrassment. Now, even the family dinner table is out of reach. Ferguson, despite her own efforts to stay in the public’s good graces, is paying the price for her connection to him. To be told “don’t come to Christmas” by your own family says everything about how far Andrew has fallen—and how desperate the royals are to keep him, and anyone standing next to him, out of sight during their most visible traditions.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The U.S. Supreme Court is currently weighing whether to hear an appeal from Ghislaine Maxwell, the longtime associate of Jeffrey Epstein who is serving a 20-year federal sentence for sex trafficking and related crimes. Maxwell’s legal team argues that her trial was tainted by juror misconduct—specifically pointing to one juror, Scotty David, who failed to disclose his own history as a survivor of sexual abuse during jury selection. Her lawyers claim this omission undermined her right to a fair trial and should warrant either a retrial or a reduced sentence. The Supreme Court has not yet decided whether it will take up the case, but even the possibility has reignited public scrutiny of the Epstein network and the broader failures that allowed it to exist.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Supreme Court meets to discuss Ghislaine Maxwell appeal and other pending casesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein’s shadow continues to shape headlines across politics and public life. A RadarOnline report suggested former President Bill Clinton’s health is deteriorating under stress tied to his Epstein connections, claiming he has been seen with a portable defibrillator as subpoenas and scrutiny mount. At the same time, Elon Musk found himself denying allegations after his name appeared in Epstein’s 2014 calendar. Musk insisted he never visited the island, admitted only to a brief visit to Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse with his ex-wife, and accused media outlets of pushing a “false narrative.”On Capitol Hill, the battle over Epstein’s files has intensified. A discharge petition in the U.S. House, aimed at forcing the Department of Justice to release all unclassified records, has reached 217 signatures and is expected to succeed once a new member is sworn in. Missouri’s Republican delegation has largely sidestepped the issue: only Rep. Mark Alford and Rep. Ann Wagner have spoken publicly, and even then in limited terms, while the rest of the state’s GOP representatives have remained silent. The lack of clarity has drawn scrutiny as pressure builds for lawmakers to take a position.One of the most outspoken Republicans on the issue has been Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia. Greene not only signed the discharge petition but also declared on X that she is “not suicidal,” framing her demand for transparency as a personal stand against powerful interests that may want the Epstein records kept sealed. Her warning, paired with the silence of other GOP members and the denials from figures like Musk and Clinton, underscores how the Epstein scandal remains both a political flashpoint and a reputational minefield for America’s most powerful institutions and individuals.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Trump’s big play about “ordering” the release of the Amelia Earhart files feels less like leadership and more like trolling the American people. Nobody in 2025 is lying awake at night desperate to know what happened to Earhart, yet here he is, selling it like a major breakthrough while the real files that matter—the Epstein files—stay buried under lock and key. It’s the same old distraction tactic: dangle something shiny and harmless in one hand while hiding the real truth in the other. And the worst part is, he acts like we’re supposed to thank him for it, as if this stunt actually addresses the corruption, cover-ups, and rot everyone can see clear as day.It’s the political equivalent of that line from Pawn Stars, when Rick looks someone in the eye and says, “Best I can do is…” Except here, it’s Trump saying: “Best I can do is Earhart files, fully unredacted.” Meanwhile, the Epstein files—the ones with names, connections, and accountability—are treated like they’re untouchable. It’s not that he can’t release them; it’s that he won’t. And that tells you everything you need to know about where the priorities really are.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
