Howard Lutnick and the Jersey Boys Scandal: The Day Cantor’s Dream Collapsed (Part 1) (10/2/25)

Howard Lutnick and the Jersey Boys Scandal: The Day Cantor’s Dream Collapsed (Part 1) (10/2/25)

In 2011, Cantor Gaming stormed into Las Vegas with the swagger of Wall Street, led by Howard Lutnick at the helm of the parent company Cantor Fitzgerald and Lee Amaitis running the Nevada operation. Known for pioneering mobile sports wagering and accepting unprecedented high-limit bets—sometimes as large as $500,000—Cantor positioned itself as the cutting edge of sports gaming. To many, it looked like a revolution: bettors flocked to its books at the M Resort and beyond, drawn by the promise of action other operators wouldn’t touch. But behind the gloss of innovation, Cantor became entangled in one of the largest illegal betting scandals in modern history. The so-called “Jersey Boys,” an East Coast ring with deep ties to organized bookmaking, infiltrated the operation through Cantor executive Michael “The Computer” Colbert. With Colbert as their insider, the crew laundered millions through Cantor’s system, exploiting the company’s appetite for volume and its disregard for traditional risk limits.


The scheme collapsed in 2012 when Colbert and more than two dozen associates were arrested in a sweeping FBI crackdown. Nevada regulators soon levied one of the largest fines in state history—$5.5 million—citing Cantor’s lack of oversight. Amaitis stepped down in 2016, his reputation scarred, while the Cantor brand itself was rebranded as CG Technology in a failed attempt to shed its baggage. By 2020, the company was sold to William Hill, its ambitions of dominating Las Vegas reduced to a cautionary tale. The Jersey Boys scandal not only crippled Cantor but reshaped the entire sports gaming industry, ushering in stricter compliance, tighter wagering oversight, and a lasting reminder that unchecked ambition and Wall Street arrogance could topple even the flashiest of innovators.

The Billionaire’s Gatekeeper: How Les Wexner Handed Jeffrey Epstein the Keys to Power (Part 1) (9/8/25)

The Billionaire’s Gatekeeper: How Les Wexner Handed Jeffrey Epstein the Keys to Power (Part 1) (9/8/25)

Jeffrey Epstein’s relationship with Les Wexner was not just financial—it was the foundation of Epstein’s rise from a mysterious money manager to a figure embedded in the world of extreme wealth and power. Wexner, the billionaire founder of L Brands and longtime CEO of Victoria’s Secret, granted Epstein unprecedented access to his fortune, his homes, and his reputation. Epstein was given power of attorney over Wexner’s finances, a level of trust so unusual it raised questions about the true nature of their bond. This arrangement allowed Epstein to control massive sums of Wexner’s wealth, acquire luxury properties, and build the image of legitimacy he later used to lure victims and cultivate influence..Yet Wexner has long insisted that he, too, was deceived by Epstein, claiming that Epstein stole money and betrayed his trust. That narrative, however, collapses under scrutiny. Maria Farmer’s testimony places abuse at Wexner’s heavily guarded Ohio estate, and Epstein’s use of Wexner’s assets—such as the Manhattan townhouse he effectively gifted him—suggests far more than a duped investor. The fact that Wexner enabled Epstein’s ascent, while escaping the same level of media and legal accountability as other Epstein associates, underscores how wealth and influence insulated him. Their relationship was not incidental; it was the keystone that transformed Epstein from a grifter into a predator with access to the corridors of power.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Mega Edition: Day Number 8 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-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

One Of Ted Bundy's Survivors Discusses The Similarities Between Her Attack And Moscow

One Of Ted Bundy's Survivors Discusses The Similarities Between Her Attack And Moscow

Ted Bundy (1946-1989) was an infamous American serial killer who gained notoriety during the 1970s. He was born Theodore Bundy in Burlington, Vermont, and his early life appeared relatively normal. Bundy was regarded as charming, intelligent, and well-spoken, which enabled him to manipulate and deceive those around him.Bundy's criminal activities started in the early 1970s when he embarked on a series of violent crimes, primarily targeting young women. He would often approach his victims in public places, feigning injury or using other ruses to gain their trust before overpowering and abducting them. Bundy's exact number of victims remains uncertain, but it is estimated that he murdered and sexually assaulted at least 30 young women in several states, including Washington, Oregon, Utah, and Colorado.His killing spree came to an end in 1978 when he was arrested in Florida. Bundy initially acted as his own defense attorney and attempted to manipulate the legal system and escape conviction. However, he was eventually found guilty of multiple murders and sentenced to death.Bundy's case gained extensive media attention due to his good looks and charismatic demeanor, which contrasted with the heinous nature of his crimes. This garnered him a significant following and made him one of the most notorious and studied serial killers in history.During his incarceration, Bundy provided limited information and occasionally confessed to additional murders, but the full extent of his crimes remains unknown. He was executed in the electric chair at Florida State Prison in 1989, ending the life of one of America's most infamous serial killers. Bundy's case continues to be the subject of interest and study in the fields of criminology and psychology.In this episode, we hear from one of the survivors of Ted Bundy's murder spree at the sorority house located on the Florida State University campus and how it reminds her of the murders in Moscow.(commercial at 7:49)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ted Bundy survivors see eerie similarities between their gruesome attacks and Bryan Kohberger’s alleged rampage (msn.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
