Prince Andrew "Steps Back" From Public Duties

Prince Andrew "Steps Back" From Public Duties

Prince Andrew’s downfall reached a breaking point in November 2019, when he announced he would step back from public duties amid mounting outrage over his friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The decision followed his catastrophic Newsnight interview, where his evasive and tone-deaf answers about Epstein—and his bizarre claim that he “didn’t sweat”—sparked widespread condemnation. Within days, sponsors, charities, and military groups began severing ties, forcing Buckingham Palace to intervene. In a rare move, the Queen personally authorized Andrew’s withdrawal “for the foreseeable future,” signaling that his presence had become untenable for the monarchy. The announcement was not voluntary in any real sense—it was damage control. Behind palace doors, senior royals, including Prince Charles and Prince William, reportedly pushed for Andrew’s exile from public life to protect the institution’s credibility.


Following his resignation from royal duties, Andrew’s titles and roles began to collapse one by one. He lost dozens of patronages, was stripped of his honorary military appointments, and in 2022 was barred from using the title “His Royal Highness” in any official capacity. His attempt at a quiet comeback has repeatedly failed, with public opinion remaining overwhelmingly hostile. Even within the royal family, his isolation is near total—he no longer represents the Crown, and his appearances are limited to private family events. The man once dubbed “Air Miles Andy” for his globetrotting lifestyle is now a symbol of disgrace, his fall serving as one of the most dramatic implosions in modern royal history.

Deutsche Bank And The 75 Million Dollar Epstein Related Payout

Deutsche Bank And The 75 Million Dollar Epstein Related Payout

Deutsche Bank agreed to pay $75 million to settle a lawsuit brought by women who accused the bank of enabling Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation. The plaintiffs claimed Deutsche Bank ignored multiple red flags and continued to process transactions that directly facilitated Epstein’s abuse—payments that were allegedly routed to victims, recruiters, and associates even after Epstein’s 2008 conviction was widely known. The settlement, reached in 2023, marked one of the largest financial agreements of its kind between a major bank and victims of sexual exploitation, with court filings revealing that Epstein maintained dozens of accounts at Deutsche Bank between 2013 and 2018.In addition to the civil settlement, Deutsche Bank previously paid a $150 million regulatory fine in 2020 to New York’s Department of Financial Services for “significant compliance failures” related to its relationship with Epstein. The bank admitted it had misclassified Epstein as a low-risk client despite internal warnings and compliance alerts noting his criminal history. Executives later described taking Epstein on as a “critical mistake,” and following public outcry, Deutsche Bank announced an overhaul of its anti–money laundering systems. The settlement underscored how major financial institutions helped sustain Epstein’s criminal enterprise long after his name should have been toxic in global banking circles.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Bill Gates And The Jeffrey Epstein Questions During His Interview On Australian TV

Bill Gates And The Jeffrey Epstein Questions During His Interview On Australian TV

In a televised interview aired in Australia, Bill Gates was pressed about his past association with Jeffrey Epstein and asked whether he regretted having that connection. During the exchange, he acknowledged that he “shouldn’t have had dinners” with Epstein, but he adamantly denied there was ever any deeper partnership or formal alignment between Epstein and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Gates maintained that his interactions with Epstein were limited and opportunistic rather than indicative of any ongoing relationship.The interview drew attention because it forced Gates into a defensive posture over years-old ties at a moment when Epstein’s legacy remains deeply controversial. He was challenged repeatedly on whether his ex-wife, Melinda, had warned him about Epstein’s intentions and whether any philanthropic deals had been discussed—questions he deflected by restating his regret while pushing back on accusations of deeper involvement.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Man in Epstein's Cockpit: Larry Visoski’s 2009 Deposition (Part 12) (10/17/25)

The Man in Epstein's Cockpit: Larry Visoski’s 2009 Deposition (Part 12) (10/17/25)

In his October 2009 deposition, taken during the Jeffrey Epstein v. Bradley Edwards defamation lawsuit, longtime Epstein pilot Larry Visoski described his decades of employment under Epstein and the routine nature of his work. Questioned by victims’ attorney Bradley Edwards, Visoski confirmed that he had flown Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and numerous guests—some of them prominent figures—across Epstein’s properties in New York, Florida, New Mexico, and the Virgin Islands. Represented by Critton & Reinhardt, Visoski repeatedly emphasized that his duties were strictly professional: piloting aircraft, maintaining schedules, and ensuring safe transport. When pressed about the ages of female passengers, he claimed he never knowingly flew minors and denied witnessing any sexual activity or misconduct aboard Epstein’s planes.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Diddy Gets Slammed With Suffocating Post Release Conditions (10/17/25)

Diddy Gets Slammed With Suffocating Post Release Conditions (10/17/25)

After his sentencing, Sean “Diddy” Combs will face extremely restrictive conditions during a five-year supervised release period following his roughly 50-month prison term. These conditions include mandatory outpatient treatment for both substance abuse and mental health, adherence to all prescribed medications, and enrollment in a domestic violence intervention program. He is also permanently barred from owning or possessing any firearms or destructive devices. The supervision is designed to tightly control his movements and behavior, ensuring compliance through regular check-ins and monitoring.Beyond the behavioral conditions, Combs will also be subject to deeply invasive oversight measures. He must submit to warrantless searches of his person, residence, vehicles, and electronic devices at any time. He is prohibited from contacting any victims or witnesses involved in his case and must comply with strict financial transparency requirements, allowing authorities to review his records and transactions. These post-release conditions reflect the government’s intent to keep him under a microscope long after his prison term ends, signaling that his punishment and scrutiny will continue for years.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Sean 'Diddy' Combs faces strict conditions after his 50-month prison sentenceBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Nobody’s Girl, Everybody’s Crime:   Virginia Robert's And The Trauma That Haunted Her (10/17/25)

Nobody’s Girl, Everybody’s Crime: Virginia Robert's And The Trauma That Haunted Her (10/17/25)

In Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, Virginia Giuffre opens up about the full, unrelenting scope of her trauma — the kind that doesn’t fade with time or distance. She writes about how, for years after escaping Jeffrey Epstein’s orbit, the abuse followed her in the form of brutal, recurring nightmares. These dreams, she says, weren’t abstract or distant; they were graphic replays of the hell she endured. In them, she relives the moments of being trapped and powerless — “greedy, heaving men on top of me,” as she describes in one passage — faces of powerful men she says she could never forget no matter how much therapy or time passed. These weren’t just faceless monsters in her dreams, but the same influential figures who smiled for cameras by day and committed atrocities behind closed doors. Each nightmare pulled her back into that same room, that same suffocating darkness, where her voice was taken and her body wasn’t hers to protect.Giuffre writes that even as she built a life beyond Epstein, married, and became a mother, the shadows of her past crept into every quiet moment. The nightmares would come without warning, often triggered by a sound, a smell, or a fleeting image — and they would leave her in tears, shaking and gasping for air. In Nobody’s Girl, she describes waking up drenched in sweat, her heart pounding, the faces of her abusers flashing before her eyes. The emotional toll was relentless: feelings of shame, self-blame, and fear blended into a kind of nightly punishment for crimes she never committed. Through therapy, advocacy, and confronting her past publicly, she began to reclaim fragments of peace — but even then, she admits that healing isn’t clean or complete. Her nightmares became both a curse and a reminder: a symbol of the damage inflicted not just by Epstein and Maxwell, but by the entire system of enablers who let it happen.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew accuser Virginia Giuffre claimed she was haunted by images of 'greedy, heaving men' who abused herBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Call For  Pam Bondi To Testify About The Ghislaine Maxwell Transfer Grow Louder (10/17/25)

Call For Pam Bondi To Testify About The Ghislaine Maxwell Transfer Grow Louder (10/17/25)

In recent weeks, congressional Democrats and oversight leaders have intensified pressure on Pam Bondi, now Attorney General, to appear before Congress and explain the controversial transfer of Ghislaine Maxwell. Critics point out that Maxwell was moved from a Florida prison to a minimum-security facility in Texas shortly after meeting with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche — a former personal lawyer to Donald Trump — a shift they argue is “highly unusual” for a convicted sex offender. The suspicion is that the transfer may have been intended to curry favor or influence Maxwell’s cooperation with DOJ in relation to Epstein-related investigations, prompting members of the House to subpoena her and demand that Bondi explain any role she or the DOJ may have played.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Pam Bondi ordered to explain Ghislaine Maxwell prison moveBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Science of Sleaze: Inside Epstein’s Fake Foundation   (10/17/25)

The Science of Sleaze: Inside Epstein’s Fake Foundation (10/17/25)

Jeffrey Epstein’s so-called “Science Foundation” was nothing more than a sham operation cooked up to help him dodge the restrictions of his Florida probation. Set up conveniently next door to his lawyer Jack Goldberger’s office, it provided him with the perfect excuse to “work” during the day while technically under supervision. In reality, the foundation didn’t conduct any research, fund any scientists, or advance any cause; it existed solely to give Epstein freedom of movement and the illusion of legitimacy. The Florida probation system, led by a state attorney’s office that looked the other way, let him manipulate the rules in broad daylight. His daily commutes, office visits, and supposed “philanthropy” were all part of the same long con — and the people paid to watch him either didn’t care or were told not to.This entire arrangement exposed how deeply compromised the system was. Epstein used money, influence, and the veneer of intellect to turn punishment into privilege, and state officials played along. Congress should be demanding to know who approved the deal and why nobody enforced it, but instead, political insiders and power brokers keep skating by unscathed. The “Science Foundation” wasn’t just a front; it was a symbol of how justice bends for the well-connected. What should have been rehabilitation became routine corruption — another reminder that in America, when you’re rich enough, probation is just another word for business as usual.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega  Edition:   Ghislaine Maxwell And Her Upgrade To The 'Honor Dorm' (10/17/25)

Mega Edition: Ghislaine Maxwell And Her Upgrade To The 'Honor Dorm' (10/17/25)

In early 2024, reports emerged that Ghislaine Maxwell had been quietly moved into the “honor dorm” at the Federal Correctional Institution in Tallahassee, Florida — a residential wing reserved for inmates who demonstrate “model behavior.” The relocation came less than two years into her 20-year sentence for sex trafficking minors on behalf of Jeffrey Epstein. The “honor dorm” reportedly provided a far more comfortable environment than the rest of the facility, featuring reduced restrictions, more privacy, and access to better work and recreational assignments. Prison consultants and advocates were quick to note that such a placement is highly unusual for a high-profile sex offender, especially one convicted of trafficking minors, suggesting that Maxwell’s status and influence may have played a role in the Bureau of Prisons’ decision.Critics saw the move as the first step toward a broader softening of Maxwell’s incarceration — a precursor to her eventual transfer to Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas, a minimum-security facility with far lighter conditions. Bureau of Prisons policy typically bars sex offenders from being housed in minimum-security camps, making the sequence of Maxwell’s reclassifications appear suspect. Reports also surfaced that internal lockdowns and security disruptions accompanied her movements, implying that special accommodations were being made for her safety and privacy. Legal observers and victims’ advocates condemned the decisions as evidence of ongoing preferential treatment, saying it sends a dangerous message that elite offenders continue to receive leniency unavailable to ordinary inmates.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
