Former Prince Andrew And The Erasure Of Empathy (11/3/25)

In her December 2023 ruling, Loretta Preska, the U.S. District Judge overseeing the case stemming from the civil suit by Virginia Giuffre against Ghislaine Maxwell, determined that more than 150 names that had been redacted from court filings would be unsealed as of January 1, 2024. She explained that the public interest in transparency outweighed the privacy interests of many involved, particularly because a significant portion of the information—such as names of associates and witnesses—was already in the public domain via media reporting, depositions, or previous filings. She granted anyone named in the documents a deadline to request a further redaction before the release.However, Judge Preska also made clear that not all records would become public: she insisted that names of minors or individuals whose involvement stemmed solely from victim-status would remain shielded, because their privacy interests outweighed any public benefit in disclosure. She cautioned that many of the names being released may lack context as to how they relate to the litigation or alleged misconduct — meaning a name in the filings does not automatically imply innocence or guilt.We also hear from Tartaglione's lawyer about the missing video.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

From the very beginning, the prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein was designed to protect him, not punish him. Instead of a normal criminal process, what unfolded in South Florida looked more like a negotiation between powerful friends. Prosecutors gave Epstein a level of deference that no other accused sex offender would ever receive. His lawyers were allowed to dictate terms, stall proceedings, and ultimately secure the secret Non-Prosecution Agreement that protected him and his accomplices from federal charges. Epstein’s victims were never told about the deal, his “sentence” let him work from his private office six days a week, and the prosecutors went out of their way to coordinate with his defense team to control media exposure. Every decision, from his jail privileges to the classified nature of the deal itself, showed that the system wasn’t just compromised — it was actively serving him.That preferential treatment revealed a justice system that bent under pressure from money and influence. The U.S. Attorney’s Office, led by Alex Acosta, treated Epstein’s wealth and connections as untouchable factors, and in doing so, erased any pretense of equality under the law. Even when later reviews tried to frame the debacle as “poor judgment,” it was clear that this was intentional — a calculated effort to shield Epstein and anyone tied to him. Prosecutors who should have fought for victims instead worked to silence them. What was supposed to be a federal criminal case became a containment operation, carefully managed to keep Epstein’s network out of the public eye and preserve the reputations of everyone standing behind him.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime attorney and financial fixer, Darren Indyke, has been repeatedly linked to the intricate structuring of Epstein’s vast financial network — a labyrinth of trusts, shell companies, and opaque entities that concealed the flow of money used to fund his operations and, allegedly, pay off victims and accomplices. “Structuring,” in financial terms, refers to deliberately breaking up large transactions to avoid federal reporting requirements under the Bank Secrecy Act. Investigators have long suspected that Epstein and Indyke employed similar tactics to mask the source and movement of Epstein’s wealth, from offshore accounts to foundations like Gratitude America Ltd., which funneled millions in donations and “grants” to scientific and philanthropic fronts that enhanced Epstein’s public image. Indyke’s deep involvement in setting up and managing these entities made him not just Epstein’s lawyer but a key architect of the financial smoke screen that protected Epstein’s empire for decades.After Epstein’s death, Indyke’s role came under heavier scrutiny, as he continued to act as co-executor of the estate — even while being named in multiple civil suits accusing him of enabling or facilitating Epstein’s criminal conduct. Plaintiffs argued that the same structuring tactics used to obscure Epstein’s finances were now being repurposed to shield assets from victims’ compensation claims. Indyke has denied wrongdoing, asserting he merely executed Epstein’s instructions as a lawyer and fiduciary. However, investigators have questioned how much he knew — and how complicit he was — in maintaining the secrecy that allowed Epstein’s trafficking network to operate unchecked for years. Whether by legal design or deliberate obfuscation, the structuring overseen by Indyke remains one of the most revealing examples of how Epstein’s financial crimes were hidden in plain sight, wrapped in the legitimacy of corporate paperwork and professional discretion.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In July 2007, Prince Andrew attended a lavish party in Saint-Tropez hosted by Anglo-French billionaire Tony Murray alongside his daughter Princess Beatrice (then around 18–19 years old). At the event, he was seen socializing closely with Canadian model and singer Pascale Bourbeau—photos reportedly show the Duke with his hand on her rear, and the pair in a “nose-to-nose” pose. The article highlights that while his daughter was present at the same event, Andrew appeared absorbed in the party atmosphere with younger women.Witnesses at the gathering described it as part of a wild streak for the Prince, who was divorced, in his late 40s and apparently embracing an attention-seeking social life. One observer said: “These were really crazy years for Andrew… He was clearly having a full-blown midlife crisis.” According to the report, Andrew and Bourbeau left the party by boat with other women while Beatrice departed separately. The article casts the episode as another illustration of the Duke’s controversial nightlife and social conduct in the years before his later public scandal.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 non-prosecution agreement (NPA) of 2007-08, reviewed by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR), detailed how federal prosecutors in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida negotiated a deal that effectively ended an active federal investigation into Epstein’s alleged trafficking and abuse of underage girls. The agreement granted broad immunity to Epstein and unnamed “potential co-conspirators,” allowed him to plead guilty to state charges instead of facing major federal sex-trafficking counts, and did so without informing or consulting the victims before the deal was executed. The OPR found that while no evidence of corruption or impermissible influence was uncovered, the decision represented “poor judgment” by the prosecutors.Further, the report underscored significant procedural deficiencies: victims were not made aware of the NPA, the USAO did not meaningfully engage with them in accordance with the Crime Victims’ Rights Act’s principles, and the immunity granted in the NPA curtailed future federal prosecution of Epstein’s associates—even as investigation into other victims and broader criminal conduct may have persisted. In short, the OPR concluded that the case resolution was legally within the prosecutors’ discretion, but deeply flawed in its execution and fairness to those harmed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:dl (justice.gov)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Jeffrey Epstein’s non-prosecution agreement (NPA) in 2008 was nothing short of a golden ticket to freedom—a secret, backroom deal that shredded every notion of justice. Brokered by then–U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta, the agreement effectively shut down a federal investigation that had uncovered dozens of victims, some as young as fourteen. Instead of facing life in prison for trafficking minors, Epstein received an absurdly lenient sentence: eighteen months in a county jail, with work-release privileges that let him leave six days a week. The NPA not only shielded Epstein but also granted immunity to his unnamed “co-conspirators,” protecting a network of powerful individuals who may have helped facilitate or benefited from his crimes. It was a blatant perversion of justice, a deal that only someone with deep connections and untold influence could have secured.What made the NPA so egregious wasn’t just its leniency—it was the secrecy surrounding it. Victims were kept completely in the dark, violating their rights under federal law, while prosecutors quietly closed the case and moved on. Epstein’s lawyers, including some of the most connected figures in America, strong-armed the government into compliance, using political pressure and backroom influence to bury the truth. The result was a grotesque miscarriage of justice that allowed Epstein to continue his predatory behavior for another decade. The NPA became a symbol of the two-tiered legal system—one for the powerful and one for everyone else—and a damning reminder that when corruption and cowardice meet, monsters walk free.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 congressional emails between Jeffrey Epstein and his circle put both Epstein and Donald Trump in a deeply compromising light. In one 2011 message, Epstein told Ghislaine Maxwell that Trump had “spent hours” with a trafficked girl at his home — a statement that, if true, torpedoes Trump’s long-maintained claim that his ties to Epstein were minimal. Even worse, Epstein’s casual tone about the incident suggests he saw Trump as part of the same culture of impunity that protected him for years. The emails offer a rare glimpse into Epstein’s mindset — calculating, manipulative, and self-assured that men like Trump would never be held to account because of who they were, not what they did.Additional exchanges between Epstein and author Michael Wolff reveal just how transactional their thinking was. Epstein speculated about using Trump’s denials as leverage, while also claiming that Trump “knew about the girls” and even told Ghislaine to “stop.” The phrasing is damning, not just for what it says but for the world it exposes — a web of men who traded favors, secrets, and silence like currency. Both Epstein and Trump come across as creatures of the same ecosystem: powerful, reckless, and convinced the rules would never apply to them.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein mentioned Trump multiple times in private emails, new release shows | CNN PoliticsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

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.
