The Billionaires Playboy Club: A Memoir By Virginia Roberts (Chapter 6 Part 2) (10/22/25)

When Alex Acosta sat before Congress to explain himself, what unfolded was less an act of accountability and more a masterclass in bureaucratic self-preservation. He painted the 2008 Epstein plea deal as a “strategic compromise,” claiming a federal trial might have been too risky because victims were “unreliable” and evidence was “thin.” In reality, federal prosecutors had a mountain of corroborating witness statements, corroborative travel logs, and sworn victim testimony—yet Acosta gave Epstein the deal of the century. The so-called non-prosecution agreement wasn’t justice; it was a backroom surrender, executed in secrecy, without even notifying the victims. When pressed on this, Acosta spun excuses about legal precedent and “jurisdictional confusion,” never once admitting the obvious: his office protected a rich, politically connected predator at the expense of dozens of trafficked girls.Even more damning was Acosta’s insistence that he acted out of pragmatism, not pressure. He denied that anyone “higher up” told him to back off—even though he once told reporters that he’d been informed Epstein “belonged to intelligence.” Under oath, he downplayed that statement, twisting it into bureaucratic double-speak. He even claimed the deal achieved “some level of justice” because Epstein registered as a sex offender—a hollow justification that only exposed how insulated from reality he remains. Acosta never showed remorse for the irreparable damage caused by his cowardice. His congressional testimony reeked of moral rot, the same rot that let a billionaire pedophile walk free while survivors were left to pick up the pieces.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Acosta Transcript.pdf - Google DriveBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The very idea of commuting Ghislaine Maxwell’s sentence is an absolute disgrace — proof that America’s justice system has rotted from the inside out. Maxwell wasn’t some bystander; she was the architect, recruiter, and enabler of Jeffrey Epstein’s child-trafficking empire. Survivors have said she was every bit as monstrous as Epstein, if not worse, and yet she’s sitting in a “prison” that feels more like a wellness resort. Now the same establishment that promised transparency with the Epstein files — only to bury the truth under redactions and lies — wants us to believe this predator deserves leniency? It’s a slap in the face to every victim who spoke out, every whistleblower who risked their career, and every ordinary person who still believes in the idea of justice.It’s the system protecting its own, ensuring Maxwell stays quiet while the real power players keep their names out of the headlines. They’ll dress it up as “compassion” or “reform,” but what it really means is: she knows too much, and they can’t risk her breaking silence. If they actually let this woman walk, then the message is clear — the powerful are untouchable, and the rest of us are fools for expecting anything different. This isn’t justice. It’s theater. It’s corruption wrapped in civility. And if this country really dares to free her, then it has no right to ever again claim it protects children, truth, or decency.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The entire OIG investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s non-prosecution agreement was a government-produced illusion — a sham built to look like justice while serving as a protective shield for the very people who orchestrated one of the most corrupt plea deals in modern history. The report was never meant to uncover wrongdoing; it was crafted to contain it. Instead of shining light, it poured concrete over the truth, allowing the DOJ and figures like Alexander Acosta to point to it as “proof” of integrity whenever they’re cornered. In reality, it’s bureaucratic sleight of hand — the government investigating itself and declaring itself innocent. It’s the institutional version of laundering guilt, a paper shield designed to keep powerful names untouched and the public pacified.From the beginning, the OIG report wasn’t about accountability — it was about insulation. Every line of it was written to protect the Department of Justice, not the victims. It became the official firewall against scrutiny, the final word for anyone asking why Epstein and his network escaped real punishment. And what’s worse is how easily people still buy it. Internal oversight in this country has turned into performance art, where the fox investigates the henhouse, stamps “no wrongdoing,” and walks away with a smirk. The OIG report didn’t close the Epstein case; it buried it under bureaucracy and called it reform — the ultimate proof that protecting the institution will always matter more than protecting the truth.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The state of New Mexico’s handling of Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes remains one of the most glaring examples of governmental negligence in recent memory. Despite Epstein owning the massive Zorro Ranch property near Stanley, where multiple survivors alleged they were trafficked and abused, state authorities failed to bring a single charge against him. Even after Epstein’s 2008 Florida conviction, he was not required to register as a sex offender in New Mexico due to a technicality in the state’s laws and the lack of proactive enforcement by local officials. Investigations launched by the New Mexico Attorney General’s Office were sluggish, underfunded, and seemingly designed to avoid confrontation with the powerful interests connected to Epstein. The inaction effectively allowed one of the most notorious predators in modern history to operate with impunity on New Mexico soil.Now, amid mounting public anger and renewed scrutiny, New Mexico lawmakers are attempting to atone through the creation of a “truth commission” — a bipartisan investigative body designed to examine how the state’s institutions failed. The commission would probe how Epstein was able to buy land, operate businesses, and allegedly abuse victims with no oversight. Its goal is to uncover which officials knew about Epstein’s activities, why red flags were ignored, and how state systems can be reformed to prevent such catastrophic negligence in the future. Supporters describe it as a long-overdue reckoning with the failures of law enforcement, regulatory agencies, and political leadership, though critics warn that it may amount to little more than symbolic damage control unless it carries real investigative authority and public transparency.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The newly released correspondence reveals Maxwell gushing that life at Bryan is “much, much happier,” describing the kitchen as “clean,” the staff as “polite,” and boasting she “haven’t seen a single fight, drug deal, passed-out person or naked inmate running around”—in her words, “I feel like I have dropped through Alice in Wonderland’s looking-glass.” In stark contrast, she painted her old facility, Federal Correctional Institution Tallahassee, as so unsanitary that “possums falling from ceilings… frying on ovens” mingled with the food served. The tone is one of relief mingled with smugness, and it raises profound questions about how a person convicted of aiding a vast sex-trafficking scheme is enjoying conditions so clearly characterized as unusually comfortable.But the emails don’t just stop at praise—they touch off a firestorm of claims from fellow inmates and corrections experts that Maxwell is receiving “VIP treatment.” Leaks argue that she gets meals delivered to her dorm, late-night showers when others are asleep, access to the warden for legal help, and in one alarming twist, some inmates say they were threatened or transferred for speaking out about her. Experts say such privileges are unheard-of for someone with Maxwell’s conviction and sentence, suggesting she’s been moved to a “country club” style prison camp despite federal rules that restrict sex-offender convicts from such facilities. The implications are explosive: favor or influence, justice subverted, and a system that seems to bow for big names while normal inmates rot under far harsher rules.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ghislaine Maxwell praises cushy prison for cleanliness, lack of possums falling from ceilingBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Calls for Prince Andrew to speak with the FBI began in late 2019, shortly after Jeffrey Epstein’s arrest and subsequent death, when U.S. investigators turned their attention to Epstein’s inner circle. Andrew’s long-standing friendship with Epstein — including his stays at Epstein’s New York mansion and the widely circulated photo with Virginia Giuffre — made him a person of interest in the ongoing probe. U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman publicly urged the Duke of York to cooperate, revealing that Andrew had provided “zero cooperation” despite his earlier public pledge to assist investigators. The announcement set off a firestorm in both the UK and U.S., with media outlets accusing the prince of hiding behind royal privilege and fueling public outrage over perceived double standards.By early 2020, the pressure only intensified. Lawmakers, victims’ advocates, and legal experts demanded that Andrew face questioning under oath, arguing that his testimony could shed light on Epstein’s trafficking network and the powerful figures who enabled it. The FBI reportedly reached out multiple times through formal channels, but Andrew’s legal team stalled, citing procedural concerns and jurisdictional issues. His refusal to cooperate became an international embarrassment for Buckingham Palace, further damaging the royal family’s reputation and strengthening the perception that Andrew was being shielded from accountability. What began as calls for cooperation soon evolved into a symbol of royal impunity — the moment when the world saw how far the palace would go to protect one of its own.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The Jeffrey Epstein investigation has been defined by a decades-long trail of corruption, influence, and protection that spans both political parties and powerful institutions. From the very beginning, Epstein’s connections to elite figures—from Wall Street moguls and intelligence officials to presidents and royals—seemed to grant him immunity from normal legal consequences. The 2008 non-prosecution agreement in Florida, brokered in secret by federal prosecutors under Alex Acosta, remains one of the clearest examples of systemic rot: a sweetheart deal negotiated behind closed doors that shielded Epstein’s co-conspirators and effectively nullified justice for dozens of victims. Even as federal agents collected evidence of trafficking and witness tampering, the powerful leaned on their connections to ensure the case was quietly buried.When Epstein was re-arrested in 2019, that same machinery of protection reappeared—just more desperate and more visible. His suspicious “suicide” inside one of the most secure jails in the country occurred amid camera failures, sleeping guards, and missing logs, all while key financial and political figures scrambled to distance themselves. Every step since—sealed records, vanishing evidence, selective prosecutions, and lenient treatment of Ghislaine Maxwell—has reeked of containment rather than accountability. What began as a criminal case against one man has become a case study in institutional corruption, where the truth about Epstein’s network of power remains locked behind the same walls that failed to keep him alive.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Donald Trump’s ever-changing narrative about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein has grown increasingly incoherent, with his latest claim being that Epstein “stole” spa workers from Mar-a-Lago—including, allegedly, Virginia Giuffre. Instead of expressing outrage over Epstein’s crimes or sympathy for the survivors, Trump framed the fallout like a staffing dispute, saying Epstein took people who worked for him and that Giuffre “had no complaints.” The shifting timelines—from calling Epstein a “terrific guy” to suddenly claiming moral indignation or workplace betrayal—don’t inspire confidence in his account.Giuffre’s family responded critically to Trump’s comments, describing them as insensitive and reducing Virginia to an object rather than acknowledging her as a survivor. They emphasized that she was a person who endured serious trauma and should not be spoken about in such transactional terms. Their reaction raised broader concerns about the tone and framing of Trump’s statements—particularly the absence of empathy toward those harmed by Epstein. By focusing on staffing disputes and loyalty rather than addressing the abuse itself, Trump’s remarks were seen as overlooking the core human cost of the scandal.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
