The Diddy Trial: Judge Subramanian Gives The Jury Their Final Instructions (Part 7-8) (7/2/25)

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.

Washington has long perfected the art of political theater, where outrage is loudly paraded before cameras only to evaporate when accountability is required. On the campaign trail, fiery speeches about corruption and justice come easy—rhetoric designed for applause, not action. Yet when those same figures sit under oath, the fire dies out, replaced by carefully hedged statements and dismissive legal jargon. It’s not about uncovering truth; it’s about protecting power.That’s the script Kash Patel followed to the letter. After crowing about Epstein’s crimes for political gain, he turned around and downplayed survivor testimony as “not credible” when speaking before the Senate. The hypocrisy couldn’t be clearer. What once served as an applause line became an inconvenient truth, quickly discarded in favor of denial. The mask slipped, the act collapsed, and what was revealed was not a defender of justice but yet another operator shielding the powerful under the guise of credibility.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

During a House Judiciary Committee hearing in September 2025, Ranking Member Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) moved to subpoena the CEOs of four major banks—JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Bank of New York Mellon, and Deutsche Bank—for “suspicious activity reports” these banks allegedly filed related to Jeffrey Epstein and his associates. The motion claimed that roughly $1.5 billion in transactions tied to Epstein had been flagged as suspicious.However, in a narrow vote (20-19), Republicans on the committee led by Chairman Jim Jordan moved to table the motion—effectively killing it—so the subpoena did not proceed. Only Rep. Thomas Massie broke ranks with his party to support the subpoena. The blocking of the subpoena came amid broader efforts by Democrats to force more disclosure about Epstein’s financial transactions through banks, as well as the handling of Epstein files by law enforcement.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:GOP shuts down House Democrats' move to subpoena Jeffrey Epstein banksBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Former Attorney General William Barr resurfaced in the Epstein debate this week, testifying before Congress that Jeffrey Epstein’s 2019 death was “undoubtedly suicide.” Barr acknowledged severe lapses in prison security, including broken cameras and inattentive guards, but maintained that these amounted to negligence, not conspiracy. His certainty, however, reignited public skepticism, as many critics argue the unanswered questions surrounding Epstein’s death make any definitive conclusion premature.Meanwhile, FBI Director Kash Patel faced heated questioning in a separate congressional hearing about the bureau’s handling of Epstein’s files. Patel insisted the FBI has complied with all legal obligations but admitted he had not personally reviewed the materials, a revelation that angered lawmakers and survivor advocates. Democrats accused him of stonewalling to shield powerful figures, while Republicans defended his position that releasing certain documents could compromise ongoing cases.Adding further intrigue, Patel confirmed the FBI is open to investigating whether a disputed 2003 signature in Epstein’s “birthday book” belongs to Donald Trump. Trump has denied its authenticity, calling it a forgery, but Democrats quickly demanded an independent forensic review. With Barr closing the door on further questions about Epstein’s death, Patel hedging on transparency, and the Trump signature stirring new controversy, the scandal remains unresolved—continuing to haunt America’s political, legal, and social institutions six years after Epstein’s death.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

During his deposition, former Attorney General Bill Barr confirmed that Prince Andrew was always someone the Southern District of New York wanted to question in connection with the Jeffrey Epstein case. Barr explained that Andrew was regarded as a witness the DOJ hoped to interview, given the allegations raised by Virginia Giuffre and the supporting evidence investigators had compiled, such as travel and hotel records. He noted there was an ongoing “dispute” regarding Andrew’s cooperation, highlighting how prosecutors publicly stated he wasn’t cooperating, while Andrew’s camp insisted otherwise.Barr also clarified that, despite the SDNY’s interest, he did not recall ever being informed that Andrew had been officially elevated to the level of a “subject” or “target” of the investigation. In Barr’s account, Andrew remained in that gray zone of being a “person of interest” — someone the DOJ wanted information from, but not someone the department was actively moving to prosecute or extradite. This distinction reinforced how Andrew’s royal status and wealth seemed to keep him shielded from the more aggressive legal pursuit others in Epstein’s orbit faced.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew was 'at least' a witness in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, reveals former chief US prosecutor as he recalls 'zero cooperation' press conference in newly-released Epstein files | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Reports say that Musk once visited Epstein’s New York residence for about 30 minutes one afternoon, along with Talulah Riley. Musk has said the meeting was at her request, because she was curious, and that nothing inappropriate was observed—just “weird art.” He also says Epstein invited him more than once to visit his private island, an invitation Musk declinedMusk has also been vocal in demanding that files related to Epstein be made more public. He has made claims—without presenting evidence—that Donald Trump is named in still-sealed “Epstein files,” and that this is a key reason they have not been released. Musk has criticized the Trump administration for withholding them and said such transparency is important for public trust.to contact me:bobbycapucci@Protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Michael Reiter is the former Chief of Police for the Town of Palm Beach, Florida, and played a pivotal role in the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's criminal activities. Under his leadership, the Palm Beach Police Department launched a probe into allegations that Epstein was sexually abusing underage girls at his Palm Beach mansion. Reiter's team gathered substantial evidence, including witness testimonies and physical evidence, exposing a pattern of exploitation. Frustrated by what he viewed as lenient treatment of Epstein by prosecutors, including the controversial plea deal brokered by federal attorneys, Reiter took the unprecedented step of bypassing local authorities and forwarding the case to the FBI. His efforts were instrumental in bringing national attention to Epstein’s crimes, though they also highlighted systemic failures in the justice system. Reiter's actions are widely regarded as a courageous stand against powerful interests.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.
