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

Howard Lutnick and the Jersey Boys Scandal: The Day Cantor’s Dream Collapsed (Part 2) (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.

Ghislaine Maxwell’s Whistleblower Silenced: Inside the BOP Cover-Up  (11/22/25)

Ghislaine Maxwell’s Whistleblower Silenced: Inside the BOP Cover-Up (11/22/25)

In a development that has raised serious questions about transparency and accountability, the Bureau of Prisons has reportedly terminated the employee who exposed Ghislaine Maxwell’s preferential treatment while in federal custody. Rather than address why a convicted sex trafficker was receiving unusual accommodations — including a relocation that has never been fully explained — officials chose instead to penalize the individual who alerted the public. The agency’s justification rests on claims of “policy violations” and unauthorized communication with the media, a defense that has done little to dispel concerns that the move was designed to suppress scrutiny rather than uphold procedure. For observers, the timing and severity of the response appear less like a personnel issue and more like a concerted effort to control the narrative surrounding Maxwell’s conditions.The decision has intensified frustration among survivors, advocates, and members of the public who have demanded answers about how and why Maxwell has been treated differently from other federal inmates. Rather than clarifying who approved her transfer, why she was granted amenities rarely afforded to prisoners, or what internal discussions led to these decisions, the focus has shifted toward silencing the whistleblower. The optics are stark: a system that has repeatedly resisted transparency in the Epstein-Maxwell case now punishing the one person attempting to shed light on it. The unresolved questions remain central: Who authorized the move? What motivated it? And why has the response to legitimate inquiry been discipline instead of disclosure? Until those questions are answered, concerns about a deepening institutional coverup will only continue to grow.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com'source:Nurse is fired after revealing Ghislaine Maxwell's VIP treatment at comfortable new federal prison where she has access to puppy | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Mega Edition: Johanna Sjoberg's Deposition In The Maxwell/Virginia Roberts Suit (Part 9-10) (11/21/25)

In her deposition in the defamation lawsuit filed by Virginia Giuffre against Ghislaine Maxwell, Johanna Sjoberg described being recruited to work for Jeffrey Epstein under the impression that it was a legitimate job opportunity. According to her testimony, she was initially hired to help with office work but was soon asked to give massages to Epstein—something she testified quickly evolved into inappropriate and unwanted conduct. Sjoberg stated that Ghislaine Maxwell played a central role in managing the household and was often present during these encounters, contributing to the atmosphere of control and pressure. Her deposition supported claims made by Giuffre and other women who alleged they were misled into situations where they were exploited.Sjoberg also testified about interactions with well-known individuals while in Epstein’s company, including an allegation involving Prince Andrew, which she said took place at Epstein’s residence. She described an incident in which Maxwell, Epstein, and others were present during a moment she considered inappropriate and unsettling. While the full extent of those interactions remains the subject of legal scrutiny and public interest, Sjoberg’s deposition contributed to the broader pattern of allegations suggesting a tightly controlled environment where young women were manipulated under false pretenses. Her account was one of several that added weight to the claims being investigated in both civil and criminal proceedings surrounding Epstein and Maxwell.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

How Did Those Closest To Epstein Side Step The Long Arm Of The Law?

How Did Those Closest To Epstein Side Step The Long Arm Of The Law?

Jeffrey Epstein’s story is about far more than one predator; it’s about the powerful network that protected him. While survivor accounts have finally come to light, the elite figures who surrounded Epstein—politicians, billionaires, academics, and global power brokers—have largely avoided scrutiny. His influence wasn’t rooted only in wealth, but in access and the willingness of institutions to shield him long after credible allegations surfaced.The failures that enabled him remain unresolved: a 2007 plea deal that granted immunity to unnamed co-conspirators, missing evidence, and a justice system seemingly designed to protect the influential at the expense of victims. Epstein’s death eliminated the one person who could have named names, leaving the broader structure untouched. Until the enablers are exposed, accountability remains an illusion.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Jeffrey Epstein And His Kind Of Scientist

Jeffrey Epstein And His Kind Of Scientist

Many powerful figures were connected to Jeffrey Epstein not by accident, but because his world provided access, influence, and a level of secrecy that appealed to elites. The piece discusses how prominent individuals across politics, business, and media continued associating with Epstein even after serious allegations were known, suggesting that they viewed the benefits of proximity—connections, financial doors opening, and social credibility—as outweighing the risks. Epstein wasn’t operating on the fringe; he was embedded in elite circles that helped legitimize him.It also emphasizes how structural protections helped shield both Epstein and those around him. Institutions with the authority to intervene often failed to act, while wealthy and influential associates had the power to suppress scrutiny and shape the narrative. The scale of elite involvement is portrayed as a key reason full accountability has never materialized: exposing Epstein fully would require exposing the network that enabled him, and that remains a threshold the system has avoided crossing.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
