Morning Update: A Trip Around The Jeffrey Epstein Headlines (9/10/25)
The latest batch of Jeffrey Epstein revelations strips away any remaining illusion that his crimes were carried out in isolation. Congress’s release of his “birthday book” revealed not only grotesque sketches and disturbing memorabilia but also affectionate notes from world leaders, celebrities, and power brokers who once insisted they barely knew him. A novelty check joking about Epstein “selling” a woman to Donald Trump, UK Ambassador Peter Mandelson’s “best pal” message, and illustrations trivializing abuse all point to a culture where Epstein’s depravity wasn’t hidden—it was normalized, celebrated, and even turned into party humor.At the same time, financial institutions like JPMorgan Chase enabled him with staggering impunity, processing over $1 billion in transactions for Epstein long after his conviction. The picture is clear: elites wrote the notes, signed the checks, drew the cartoons, and laundered the money. Survivors were left voiceless while those in power toasted a predator. The birthday book isn’t just a scrapbook; it’s a mirror, reflecting the true faces of the people who laughed with Epstein while he destroyed lives, and it reminds us that in their world, we were never invited to the party.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Scotty David And The Juror Controversy During The Ghislaine Maxwell Trial (9/10/25)
During Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial, Juror #50, Scotty David, became the focus of controversy after he publicly revealed that he was a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. He admitted that he had not disclosed this information during the jury selection process, where potential jurors were asked if they or close relatives had experienced sexual abuse. His admission raised questions about whether he had misled the court and whether his personal history could have influenced deliberations. Given that Maxwell’s charges directly involved sex trafficking and abuse of minors, critics argued his presence on the jury might have compromised her right to a fair trial.Maxwell’s defense team quickly filed motions for a retrial, asserting that David’s failure to disclose his background tainted the integrity of the proceedings. While David claimed he had “skimmed” the juror questionnaire and did not intend to withhold information, the issue sparked intense debate over juror honesty, screening procedures, and the possible impact of personal experience on impartiality. Ultimately, Judge Alison Nathan ruled that his omission was not intentional and denied the retrial request, but the episode remains one of the most controversial aspects of Maxwell’s case, raising lingering doubts among some observers about the fairness of her conviction.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Day 24 Of The Ghislaine Maxwell Trial (9/10/25)
The Ghislaine Maxwell trial, held in late 2021 in federal court in New York, centered on her alleged role as Jeffrey Epstein’s co-conspirator in a sex trafficking ring that preyed on underage girls for over a decade. Prosecutors accused Maxwell of grooming minors, gaining their trust, and then facilitating or participating in their abuse at the hands of Epstein between 1994 and 2004. The government’s case included testimony from four women, some of whom described in painful detail how Maxwell recruited them as teenagers under the guise of mentorship or financial assistance, only to manipulate them into sexual encounters with Epstein. Flight logs, photographs, and household staff testimony were used to place Maxwell at various Epstein properties and show her long-standing involvement in his lifestyle and operations.Maxwell’s defense team attempted to cast her as a scapegoat, arguing that she was being punished for Epstein’s crimes following his 2019 death in federal custody. They challenged the credibility of the accusers, questioned their motives, and pointed to the time gaps between the alleged crimes and the trial. Ultimately, the jury found Maxwell guilty on five of six federal charges, including sex trafficking of a minor, and not guilty on one count of enticing a minor to travel for illegal sex acts. The conviction marked a rare moment of accountability in a case that had long been plagued by cover-ups, prosecutorial failures, and elite protection. It also opened the door to further scrutiny of Epstein’s network, although many key figures remain untouched.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Virginia Roberts Father And His Comments On Prince Andrew And Jeffrey Epstein
Sky Roberts, Virginia Giuffre’s father, voiced strong doubts about the official conclusion that his daughter’s April 25, 2025 death was a suicide. He told the Daily Mail that “there’s no way she did that,” insisting that “somebody got to her.” Roberts described Virginia as resilient, determined, and still very much invested in her advocacy, stating she had “so much to live for.” He also reaffirmed the credibility of her allegations against Jeffrey Epstein and his associates, pointing to her successful settlement with Prince Andrew as evidence of wrongdoing. Additionally, he confirmed the authenticity of the now-famous photograph showing Virginia with Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell, saying she had sent him the original long before her accusations became public.Beyond disputing the suicide ruling, Roberts emphasized how his daughter should be remembered for her strength and her mission to help survivors of sexual abuse and trafficking. He spoke of how she had turned her trauma into a driving force for justice, building a foundation and dedicating herself to giving others a voice. Roberts said her legacy must not be overshadowed by the circumstances of her death, calling for deeper scrutiny of what really happened and reminding the public that Virginia’s work remains a beacon for countless survivors who saw her as proof that the powerful could be held to account.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:'I shook Epstein's hand and asked him what my daughter would be doing': Virginia Roberts's father describes dropping her off at paedophile's mansion, meeting 'despicable' Ghislaine... and blasts Prince Andrew for showing 'no remorse' | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell According To Barry Levine
In The Spider, Barry Levine portrays Ghislaine Maxwell as far more than Epstein’s social companion — he frames her as the indispensable architect of his operation. According to Levine, she was the “glamorous front” who leveraged her elite British pedigree and high-society connections to normalize Epstein in circles of wealth and power. He argues Maxwell actively recruited young women, groomed them, and managed logistics that made Epstein’s predation function like a system. In his telling, her role wasn’t passive or peripheral; it was managerial and deliberate, making her a co-conspirator rather than a bystander.Levine also emphasizes how Maxwell operated as a bridge between Epstein and institutions of influence. He highlights how she cultivated access to royalty, billionaires, and academics, which insulated Epstein with legitimacy while expanding his reach. Levine makes the case that Maxwell was “the spider at the center of the web” just as much as Epstein himself — an enabler who understood the power structures she was exploiting and weaponized her connections to secure cover for their crimes. The book presents her not only as Epstein’s partner in crime but as the key figure who transformed his abuse into a scalable empire.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comSource:https://www.newsweek.com/ghislaine-jeffery-biography-1545135Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein And The His Financial Network Based In The Virgin Islands
Jeffrey Epstein’s offshore financial dealings were exposed in part through the Paradise Papers, which revealed his role as chairman of Liquid Funding Ltd., a Bermuda-registered company linked to Bear Stearns. The law firm Appleby, which administered Liquid Funding, operated across multiple tax havens, including the British Virgin Islands, and this connection often creates confusion about Epstein’s financial footprint there. While Appleby’s BVI presence meant that its clients could easily incorporate or shift assets through that jurisdiction, available records show Epstein’s personal offshore entities were tied more directly to Bermuda and the U.S. Virgin Islands, where he established companies like Financial Trust Company and Southern Trust.The BVI does not appear as a core base of Epstein’s corporate structures in the released data, but it factored into the broader offshore web through Appleby’s extensive operations in the territory. In other words, Epstein’s name emerges in the same investigative files that highlight BVI corruption and secrecy issues, but his direct offshore holdings were anchored elsewhere. The overlap underscores how tightly interwoven these secrecy jurisdictions are, with Bermuda, the Cayman Islands, and the British Virgin Islands all serving as nodes in the same shadow financial system that Epstein exploited.To contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.comSource:https://www.icij.org/investigations/paradise-papers/british-virgin-islands-corruption-scandal-threatens-its-dependable-tax-haven-reputation/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Former Ohio State University Wrestlers Demand An Investigation Into Les Wexner
Five former Ohio State wrestlers—who say they were victims of the late Dr. Richard Strauss—authored a letter in early February 2020, urging Ohio’s Inspector General to investigate Les and Abigail Wexner. In their five-page appeal, they request two investigations: first, into Abigail Wexner’s alleged role in Jeffrey Epstein’s assault of Maria Farmer at the Wexners’ New Albany estate; and second, into any relationship between Epstein, the Wexner family, and Ohio State University. The wrestlers specifically cite Abigail’s position as vice chair of OSU’s Board of Trustees and question why the university continues its ties with the Wexners amid such serious allegationsThe letter further emphasizes parallels between how Ohio State ignored complaints against Strauss and its handling of Epstein-related allegations. The wrestlers assert that the university has repeatedly turned a blind eye to sexual abuse and “offers only the pretense of caring,” especially given Epstein's significant contributions—including to the Wexner Football Facility—and his donor relationship with OSU. They argue that to properly address the abuse legacy and protect current and future students, the university must sever any inappropriate ties with "pedophiles and sex traffickers and those who enabled them, including both Abigail and Leslie Wexner."to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/former-ohio-state-wrestlers-call-investigation-university-s-ties-jeffrey-n1134071Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
