Morning Update: A Trip Around The Jeffrey Epstein Related Headlines (9/25/25)

Newly disclosed U.S. congressional records show that Prince Andrew was listed as a passenger on Jeffrey Epstein’s private plane on May 12, 2000, traveling from Teterboro, New Jersey, to Palm Beach, Florida. In a related “general ledger,” Andrew is referenced as having paid $200 for “massage, exercise and yoga” services in February 2000 — the same amount Epstein’s victims have said they were paid for massages linked to abuse. The documents also place Andrew on Epstein’s jet in later years, including 2002 and 1999 trips to the U.S. Virgin Islands, with his name appearing multiple times in the flight logsThough Andrew has consistently denied any improper conduct, the revelations are intensifying calls from U.S. officials to subpoena him to testify, alongside several other high-profile figures named in the released materials. The documents, part of over 8,500 records surrendered by Epstein’s estate, also reveal connections between Epstein and prominent public figures such as Elon Musk, Steve Bannon, and Peter Thiel — with potential meetings and visits to Epstein’s island documented in his calendar logs.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Andrew ‘flew on Jeffrey Epstein’s jet and received massages’Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

A newly proposed bill in the New Mexico legislature seeks to launch a formal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged activities at Zorro Ranch, establishing what proponents call a “truth commission” with subpoena power to force document production rather than relying solely on voluntary disclosure. State Representative Andrea Romero has announced plans to introduce the measure in January, contending that the commission should uncover the “truth about what went on” in Santa Fe County—even if some alleged offenses now fall outside existing statutes of limitations.  The proposal also includes provisions to change state law in order to allow victims whose claims might otherwise be time-barred to come forward and seek some form of recourse. While the mechanics are still being drafted, the initiative reflects growing pressure in New Mexico to revisit the legacy of Epstein’s ownership of the ranch and the lingering shadow his crimes cast over local communities.A newly surfaced People report highlights an internal FBI memo from September 2008 confirming that Jeffrey Epstein “provided information to the FBI as agreed upon.” The memo, tied to his 2007 non-prosecution agreement, undercuts later statements by FBI Director Kash Patel, who claimed Epstein was never a source. The document closed out a subfile on Epstein’s alleged asset forfeiture and suggested prosecutors found utility in his cooperation even as they opted not to pursue broader charges at the time. This revelation has reignited debate over how much intelligence Epstein offered and whether his cooperation shielded him from more serious exposure.The Epstein estate has delivered a new batch of unredacted documents to the House Oversight Committee, including calendars, call logs, cash ledgers, and message books, adding to earlier releases such as Epstein’s will, his 2007 non-prosecution agreement, and his infamous “birthday book.” While the Committee has pledged to redact victims’ names before any public release, the handover intensifies bipartisan pressure for full transparency, with Democrats pushing to expose all connections and Republicans warning against selective publication. The disclosures have deepened scrutiny of Epstein’s networks and raised fresh questions about the powerful figures named within.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New Mexico lawmaker to propose investigation into Epstein's Zorro RanchEpstein estate turns over new documents - POLITICOJeffrey Epstein Provided Information to FBI: Internal MemoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the Epstein scandal unleashed a wave of internal turmoil in the Trump administration, as aides scrambled to contain political damage once Trump’s name began surfacing in Epstein-related files. What began as attempts to weaponize Epstein connections against rivals morphed into a defensive posture as Trump and his advisers found themselves under pressure from their own base and from Congress. The administration was plagued by missteps: Attorney General Pam Bondi’s sudden distribution of “Epstein Files: Phase 1” binders to conservative influencers backfired, communication lines within the White House frayed, and high-level figures — including Bondi, Deputy Director Dan Bongino, and others — clashed over strategy and messaging.As the controversy deepened, conflicting impulses roiled the White House: some sought transparency to placate critics, while others pushed to suppress further disclosures. leaks, finger-pointing, and unforced errors intensified the chaos.

The relationship between Prince Andrew and King Charles III has long been fraught, but it grew far more contentious in the wake of Andrew’s association with Jeffrey Epstein. After the disastrous 2019 BBC “Newsnight” interview, Andrew was forced to step back from public duties, and Charles was widely reported to have been the driving force behind sidelining his younger brother to protect the monarchy’s image. Their tensions deepened when Charles, then Prince of Wales, allegedly pushed Queen Elizabeth II to strip Andrew of his military titles and patronages, moves Andrew resisted but ultimately could not stop.Since Charles’s accession to the throne, the rift has only widened. Charles has refused Andrew any return to public life and has moved to reduce Andrew’s role within the family, even limiting his use of royal residences like Royal Lodge. Andrew, meanwhile, has reportedly chafed at his brother’s firm stance, feeling abandoned and marginalized. What emerges is a relationship marked by power struggles and mistrust, with Charles prioritizing the survival of the monarchy’s reputation over family loyalty, and Andrew left isolated as a disgraced figure still fighting for relevance.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Former U.S. Virgin Islands Attorney General Denise George aggressively pursued a civil racketeering (CICO) investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s operations in the territory, focusing on how he used his private island, banks, and shell companies as part of a trafficking network. As part of that effort, she issued a wide wave of subpoenas targeting some of the most powerful players connected to Epstein’s financial web, including banking giants like JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank, as well as figures tied to his estate and charitable foundations. George sought extensive records on accounts, transfers, and relationships that could demonstrate not just Epstein’s individual crimes but a broader pattern of institutional complicity.The scope of her subpoenas rattled both Wall Street and political elites, because it suggested her office was building a case that Epstein had not acted alone—that there were enablers and beneficiaries. Critics allege that her firing in early 2023 by the Virgin Islands’ governor, announced just days after she filed suit against JPMorgan, was directly connected to her aggressive tactics. While she is no longer in office, her investigations laid the groundwork for ongoing litigation by the Virgin Islands government, which has since extracted large settlements from banks and forced disclosures that continue to reveal how deep Epstein’s financial ties ran.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Juror #50, identified publicly as Scotty David, became a focal point of controversy after Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial. Before the trial, on his juror questionnaire, he answered “no” when asked if he or any close relation had ever been the victim of sexual abuse. But after the verdict, David gave interviews saying he had been sexually abused as a child, and that during jury deliberations he shared parts of that experience to help other jurors understand how memory and trauma work—insisting his personal history informed their view of witness testimony.Maxwell’s defense seized on those revelations, demanding a new trial on the grounds that David’s omission and his post-trial statements suggested bias and a failure of the Court’s vetting process. In response, Judge Alison Nathan held a hearing, granted David immunity to answer questions, and ultimately ruled that his misstatement was an “inadvertent mistake” (not a deliberate lie) and did not prove that he was unable to be fair or had tainted the verdict. The appellate court later agreed, rejecting the retrial request, concluding that David’s presence on the jury did not, under law, amount to a violation of Maxwell’s right to a fair jury.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
