Mega Edition: Jeffrey Epstein And The Creepy Relationship With The Dubin Family (10/8/25)

CBS News recently revisited the case of Jeffrey Epstein’s death by analyzing surveillance footage, cell photos, and other previously unreleased materials — and found notable discrepancies between what government officials claimed and what the visual evidence appears to show. While Epstein’s death was officially ruled a suicide by hanging, CBS’s forensic reviewers argued that many standard investigative procedures were ignored: there were no evidence markers in the photos, items inside the cell had been moved, and Epstein’s body was removed before the FBI arrived. That mishandling, CBS reported, made it impossible to establish a clear and reliable timeline of events. The network also noted that Attorney General William Barr’s claim — that footage conclusively showed no one entering the area — was not backed up by the limited field of view in the available video, which fails to capture the entire cell tier or surrounding hallways.Inside the cell, CBS said the scene was in “disarray.” Sheets and bedding were piled in corners, electrical cords were tangled, and personal items were scattered everywhere. The report emphasized that the cell did not appear to have been treated like an active crime scene; no clear photographic documentation was taken before evidence was moved, and no chain-of-custody procedures were followed. Experts told CBS that the messy, undocumented state of the cell effectively compromised the ability to rule out foul play with confidence — even if no conclusive proof of homicide emerged from the review. The overall picture painted by CBS was one of a botched and chaotic investigation that continues to fuel public skepticism about how Epstein died in federal custody.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonamil.comsource:In cell where Jeffrey Epstein died, a scene of disarray that never underwent thorough inspection, experts said - CBS NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s unpublished memoir The Billionaire’s Playboy Club recounts her recruitment into Jeffrey Epstein’s world as a 16-year-old working at Mar-a-Lago, where she says Ghislaine Maxwell lured her in with promises of opportunity and travel. The manuscript describes how she became trapped in Epstein’s orbit, allegedly forced into sexual encounters with powerful men, including Prince Andrew, and ferried across his properties in New York, Florida, and the Virgin Islands. Giuffre paints a detailed picture of coercion, psychological manipulation, and the disturbing normalization of exploitation within Epstein’s high-society circle.In this episode, we begin our journey through that memoir.   to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Virgina Giuffre Billionaire's Playboy Club | DocumentCloudBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Reid Hoffman’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein is tenuous, controversial, and wrapped in layers of public explanation and regret. Hoffman has admitted that he invited Epstein to a 2015 dinner in Palo Alto (with luminaries like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg) as part of fundraising efforts for the MIT Media Lab—on the basis that MIT leadership had “vetted” Epstein. He later issued a public apology, saying that while he believed the invitation was appropriate at the time, it was a serious error in judgment to associate with Epstein post-conviction.But deeper reporting has further complicated Hoffman’s narrative. Documents indicate that Hoffman visited Epstein’s private island, Little St. James, in 2014 (after Epstein’s 2008 conviction), apparently connected with MIT-related fundraising. Other records show plans for Hoffman to stay in Epstein’s New York townhouse and attend social engagements with him and other tech elites. Hoffman’s defenders say his ties were limited to philanthropy and fundraising, but critics argue that even those interactions — especially occurring after Epstein’s well-known legal disgrace — raise troubling questions about judgment, complicity, and the degree to which Epstein was able to rehab his social capital among elite tech circles.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Leon Black’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein spanned decades and has been a source of sustained scandal. Black, cofounder of Apollo Global Management, paid Epstein at least $158 million (and recent investigations suggest as much as $170 million) between 2012 and 2017 for tax, estate planning, and art-collection services. Black has acknowledged that working with Epstein was a “horrible mistake” and said he deeply regrets their association. Nonetheless, his payments and closeness to Epstein have invited intense scrutiny about what Black knew — or should have known — about Epstein’s criminal network. Meanwhile, congressional and regulatory probes have sought to uncover the full extent of their financial entanglements and whether Black’s use of Epstein’s services was beyond mere professional consults.In addition to the financial scandal, Black’s ties to Epstein have been tangled with serious allegations of sexual misconduct. Multiple lawsuits accuse Black of rape, including claims that in 2002, when introduced by Epstein, he assaulted a 16-year-old autistic girl in Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse. One prominent lawsuit filed by Cheri Pierson accused Black of attacking her in Epstein’s home; that lawsuit was later dismissed. Black has denied all criminal wrongdoing, asserting consensual relationships and rejecting claims against him as false. These overlapping allegations and financial links with Epstein have undermined Black’s reputation, led to his resignation as MoMA board chair and Apollo executive, and triggered ongoing legal and reputational battles.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmaill.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The television series The Crown has been widely criticized for effectively ignoring or downplaying Prince Andrew’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein, despite the centrality of that scandal to his public legacy. Although the final seasons of the show cover the period when allegations involving Epstein and Virginia Giuffre emerged, the creators elected not to dramatize Andrew’s relationship with Epstein or the ensuing lawsuits. As Newsweek noted, the show’s writer Peter Morgan explicitly stated that “Haven’t gone anywhere near him” when asked about depicting Andrew’s ties to Epstein.Instead, the show skirts around the issue by making oblique references or metaphorical allusions (e.g. a scene where Andrew discusses a movie about a 17-year-old seduced by older predators) but never directly engages with the core claims, legal actions, or public uproar. Critics argue this amounts to a deliberate omission, shielding the royal narrative from one of the most consequential scandals of the era.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
