Prosecutors Say That Victim Number 3 Has Vanished And She Might Not Testify Against Diddy

Bill Barr’s deposition before Congress on Jeffrey Epstein was a masterclass in calculated deflection. While Barr insisted that Epstein’s death was “absolutely” suicide, he conceded that the prison surveillance system had “blind spots”—a detail that conveniently leaves just enough room for speculation without providing definitive answers. His reliance on flawed or incomplete camera footage, combined with his dismissal of alternative forensic perspectives, came off less like transparency and more like institutional damage control. Instead of holding the Bureau of Prisons accountable, Barr’s narrative positioned the failures as unfortunate but inconsequential, a stance that fails to satisfy the public demand for clarity.Just as troubling was Barr’s evasiveness when pressed about Donald Trump’s knowledge of Epstein. He admitted to having spoken with Trump about Epstein’s death but couldn’t recall when one of those conversations occurred—an astonishing lapse considering the gravity of the matter. His reasoning that “if there were more to it, it would have leaked” was not only flippant but dismissive of the very real history of suppression, obstruction, and selective disclosure that has defined the Epstein saga. By leaning on institutional trust in a case defined by betrayal of that very trust, Barr’s testimony did little more than reinforce suspicions that the Department of Justice has long been more concerned with containment than accountability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Barr-Transcript.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Todd Blanche’s CNN interview about his sit-down with Ghislaine Maxwell has been met with skepticism for good reason. Blanche framed his conversation with her as an exercise in transparency, but his insistence that it was “impossible” to determine if she was credible rang hollow, especially given the mountain of contradictions and lies Maxwell has already told under oath. Instead of pressing her on the details of Epstein’s network, Blanche largely leaned into a narrative that it was up to the “public” to decide, effectively punting the DOJ’s responsibility to establish facts. For someone in his position, such hedging looks less like neutrality and more like avoidance.What makes it worse is Blanche’s background and the circumstances. As a former Trump lawyer, his presence raises red flags about conflicts of interest, and the softball nature of his questions only fuels suspicion that this interview was more about optics than accountability. Maxwell’s transfer to a cushier, low-security facility right after this sit-down only adds to the perception that she is still receiving special treatment in exchange for selective cooperation. The entire spectacle looks less like a hard-nosed inquiry into one of the biggest sex-trafficking conspiracies of the modern era, and more like a carefully stage-managed charade designed to protect the powerful.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Blanche breaks silence on meeting with Ghislaine Maxwell: 'Impossible' to say if she was credible - ABC NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In Britain, a state visit by Donald Trump was jolted when activists projected massive images of Trump and Jeffrey Epstein onto the walls of Windsor Castle. The stunt, which British police quickly shut down, resulted in four arrests on charges of “malicious communications.” Photos of the projection spread globally within minutes, hijacking the carefully staged optics of a royal ceremony and forcing Epstein’s name back into headlines through spectacle and shock.Across the Atlantic, a federal judge in Manhattan ruled against unsealing the identities of two women once described as potential co-conspirators in Epstein’s network. Prosecutors never charged the women, and the court argued disclosure would expose them to unnecessary harm. The decision reignited frustration among survivors and transparency advocates, who see secrecy as another barrier to accountability, ensuring that questions about who enabled Epstein remain unanswered.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell’s proffer session with the DOJ was less about truth and accountability and more about performance and deceit. The entire premise of a proffer is simple: you trade truth for a chance at leniency. But Maxwell didn’t come to the table with intelligence, evidence, or leads that could help dismantle Epstein’s far-reaching web. She came armed with a rehearsed script of lies and character assassinations. She weaponized her time in that room not to aid justice, but to smear survivors who had already borne the crushing weight of humiliation in courtrooms and the press. The newly released emails now strip away any doubt about what happened—they show that Maxwell didn’t stumble or misremember. She perjured herself over and over, carefully contradicting her own sworn statements. This was deliberate, malicious dishonesty. And yet, instead of being dragged back to court with perjury charges and buried under the consequences, she was inexplicably rewarded with cushier accommodations. Sitting across from her during this travesty was none other than Deputy Director Todd “Baby Billy” Blanche, a man who should have cut the session short the moment the lies started, but who instead sat back, nodded, and let justice be mocked.The fallout from this disaster stretches far beyond Maxwell herself. For survivors, it was another betrayal layered on top of years of indifference and ridicule. They were once again slandered, this time under the very nose of the government agency tasked with protecting them. Their truth, earned through blood and tears, was tossed aside so Maxwell could preserve her own skin. For the public, the message couldn’t be clearer: the Department of Justice is not an impartial arbiter of the law, but a stage where the rich and connected get to rewrite the script in their favor. Accountability was promised, but what America got instead was a rigged performance where lies were treated as cooperation, and perjury was treated as a perk. A real justice department would have treated her dishonesty as a direct assault on the rule of law, stacking charges on her until her arrogance collapsed. But instead, Blanche and his colleagues chose complicity over courage, shielding Maxwell from consequences and exposing to everyone watching that in America, justice isn’t blind—it looks the other way when power is in the room.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Carolyn Margaret Andriano was one of the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking ring, who testified in the 2021 trial of Ghislaine Maxwell. According to accounts, she was recruited into Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion around 2001 when she was about 14 years old, and later waived her anonymity in speaking publicly about her experiences. She described how abuse and trauma during her teenage years led to struggles with addiction.She died on May 23, 2023, in a hotel room in West Palm Beach, Florida, at age 36. The medical examiner ruled her death an accidental overdose, citing a combination of fentanyl, methadone, and alprazolam.  Her mother has raised questions about the official findings, disputing that Carolyn was continuing to struggle with substance abuse at the time, and has called for greater transparencyto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mark Middleton, a former aide to President Bill Clinton, was found dead on May 7, 2022 at Heifer Ranch in Perryville, Arkansas. Authorities ruled his death a suicide, noting that he was discovered hanging from a tree with an extension cord around his neck and a shotgun wound to his chest. His family later confirmed that he had been battling depression, which had worsened in the months before his death. They also sought to have photos and videos from the scene sealed to protect their privacy.Despite the official ruling, Middleton’s death sparked widespread speculation and conspiracy theories because of his political connections, particularly his past ties to Clinton. Questions were raised about the details of the scene, including conflicting reports about the presence of a weapon. Some used the case to fuel the so-called “Clinton body count” narrative, though investigators found no evidence of foul play. The controversy highlighted how high-profile political associations can transform personal tragedy into public suspicion, with unanswered questions and internet chatter overshadowing the official findings.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein was able to evade real justice in Florida through a combination of wealth, connections, and a deeply compromised legal system that bent over backward to accommodate him. In 2008, despite overwhelming evidence that he had sexually abused dozens of underage girls, Epstein secured a non-prosecution agreement (NPA) with DOJ. This sweetheart deal allowed him to plead guilty to minor state charges—soliciting prostitution from a minor—while avoiding federal charges that could have put him away for life. The deal was struck in secrecy, without informing Epstein’s victims, in blatant violation of the Crime Victims’ Rights Act. Instead of facing true consequences, Epstein was sentenced to just 18 months in a county jail, where he was granted work release for 12 hours a day, six days a week, allowing him to return to his office and continue his life of luxury. Even within jail, he received special treatment, reportedly having his own private wing and access to amenities most inmates could only dream of.Beyond the legal system’s corruption, Epstein’s ability to avoid justice was reinforced by his powerful network, which included high-profile politicians, business moguls, and celebrities. Florida prosecutors initially identified at least 36 underage victims, yet law enforcement’s pursuit of him was deliberately stifled. Acosta later admitted that he was told to “back off” because Epstein “belonged to intelligence,” a cryptic remark that only fueled speculation about deeper government entanglements. The failure of the justice system was not just a legal oversight but a calculated betrayal of Epstein’s victims. Law enforcement, prosecutors, and the courts all played a role in ensuring he walked free, sending a clear message that power and money could override even the most heinous crimes. It wasn't until over a decade later—after mounting public pressure and investigative journalism—that Epstein was arrested again in 2019. But by then, he had already spent years laughing at a justice system that had been complicit in shielding him from real accountability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In July 2023, billionaire Leon Black, co-founder of Apollo Global Management, agreed to pay roughly $62.5 million to the U.S. Virgin Islands to resolve potential claims tied to his financial dealings with Jeffrey Epstein. The USVI had been pursuing Epstein’s estate and associates for enabling or benefiting from his trafficking network, and Black was facing scrutiny over large payments made to Epstein’s companies for so-called “financial advice.” The settlement gave Black immunity from criminal liability in the USVI and ended the possibility of a lawsuit there, though it did not include an admission of wrongdoing. Black has consistently said the payments were legitimate professional fees and that he had no knowledge of Epstein’s crimes.The deal, however, did not put all questions to rest. Around the same time, the Senate Finance Committee, led by Senator Ron Wyden, released documents showing Black paid Epstein far more than originally known—over $150 million between 2012 and 2017—sparking deeper concerns that such vast sums may have indirectly financed Epstein’s operations. The revelations intensified scrutiny not only of Black’s judgment but also of whether banks and institutions involved properly flagged or investigated the transactions. While the $62 million settlement resolved matters with the Virgin Islands, it left lingering doubts about the true nature of Black’s relationship with Epstein and whether full accountability was ever reached.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
