Mega Edition: Leon Black And His Political Donations And The Claims Of A Set up (10/4/25)

Leon Black, billionaire cofounder of Apollo Global Management, was for years a heavyweight political donor, spreading money to both Democrats and Republicans. In 2016 alone, he poured in more than $590,000 across campaigns and committees, with large sums going to both parties’ super PACs—$250,000 to the Democratic-aligned Senate Majority PAC and $150,000 to the Republican-aligned Congressional Leadership Fund. His donations continued into later cycles, but the amounts dropped sharply once his connections to Jeffrey Epstein became public, with watchdogs noting a steep decline in his political spending after 2020.

When it came to his personal scandals, Black has claimed he was the one being targeted rather than the perpetrator. After Guzel Ganieva filed her 2021 lawsuit alleging sexual assault and coercion, Black fired back that the allegations were “fiction” and part of an extortion scheme. He launched counterclaims of defamation, insisted he had proof in the form of texts and calls, and argued that he was the victim of a calculated conspiracy meant to “destroy” him through litigation and media pressure. Black’s stance has consistently been that he was set up—framed as both a financial and reputational hit job orchestrated by opportunists who saw him as a target.

Why Didn't Cy Vance  Prosecute Jeffrey Epstein

Why Didn't Cy Vance Prosecute Jeffrey Epstein

Jeffrey Epstein was protected by many, many different people throughout his life. From politicians to law enforcement, it seems that no matter where the dice landed for Epstein, he never crapped out. One of the offices that should have been all over Epstein and his behavior is the New York State Prosecutors office that was led by Cy Vance. Yet Epstein was able to dictate his terms and do as he pleased. The question is...why? to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.vox.com/2019/7/11/20690320/jeffrey-epstein-new-york-manhattan-nypdBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell And The UK Accusation

Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell And The UK Accusation

In the UK, allegations against Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell centered on claims that they trafficked and exploited young women on British soil, further expanding the scope of their international abuse network. Virginia Giuffre alleged she was trafficked to London in 2001, where she was photographed with Prince Andrew at Maxwell’s Belgravia townhouse, a picture that became one of the most damning symbols of the scandal. Maxwell, with her British social connections, was accused of acting as Epstein’s recruiter and facilitator, using her influence and status to introduce him into elite UK circles while allegedly procuring girls for abuse.These accusations shook the British establishment, dragging royalty and prominent figures into the fallout as questions mounted over how Epstein and Maxwell were able to operate so openly within high society. Both were accused of leveraging the UK as a playground for their trafficking ring, exploiting power, wealth, and connections to silence scrutiny. The allegations not only placed Andrew in the spotlight but also ignited criticism of British institutions that had enabled or ignored Epstein and Maxwell’s activities, turning the scandal into an enduring stain on the UK elite.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Vicky Ward And The New Yorker

Vicky Ward And The New Yorker

Vicky Ward has also spoken about how her reporting on Jeffrey Epstein was later pitched to The New Yorker, but the magazine ultimately declined to pursue the story in depth. Ward has suggested that despite the seriousness of the allegations she uncovered, the piece never gained traction within that outlet, reflecting the same pattern she faced at Vanity Fair—powerful figures like Epstein being shielded by editorial caution and institutional hesitance. For Ward, it was another instance where the truth about Epstein was sidelined, leaving his predatory behavior hidden behind layers of influence and reputation management.The failure of The New Yorker to move forward with her material has since drawn scrutiny, especially as Epstein’s crimes became undeniable years later. Critics argue that such editorial decisions allowed Epstein to continue exploiting victims while the media, knowingly or not, became complicit in protecting his image. Ward herself has characterized these experiences as emblematic of the broader problem: wealthy, well-connected men could lean on their power to keep journalists and publications from exposing them. In hindsight, the missed opportunity by The New Yorker is seen as part of a troubling media pattern that delayed accountability and enabled Epstein’s longevity.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Diddy And His Letter To Judge Subramanian (10/3/25)

Diddy And His Letter To Judge Subramanian (10/3/25)

In his four-page letter to Judge Arun Subramanian, Sean “Diddy” Combs expressed deep remorse and accepted full responsibility for the pain he caused others, especially his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and another former partner. He admitted that his past behavior was rooted in selfishness, drugs, and excess, and directly confronted the violence caught on video, saying the images “play over and over in my head.” He acknowledged being “dead wrong” for putting his hands on someone he claimed to love, framing the letter as both a confession and an appeal for forgiveness.Combs also portrayed his time in jail as a turning point — physically, mentally, and spiritually. He wrote that he had become sober for the first time in decades, entered therapy, and acted as a mentor to fellow inmates. In asking the judge for mercy and leniency, he pledged that he would not reoffend and would commit himself to living as a peaceful, nonviolent, drug-free man, as well as a better father and son. His request was positioned as a plea for a “second chance” to demonstrate that he could change his life moving forward.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.628425.527.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Morning Update:   A Trip Around The  Jeffrey Epstein Related Headlines  (10/3/25)

The Morning Update: A Trip Around The Jeffrey Epstein Related Headlines (10/3/25)

October 3, 2025, turned into another reminder that Jeffrey Epstein’s ghost still looms large over politics, culture, and public life. On the National Mall, a guerrilla statue of Donald Trump and Epstein holding hands was reinstalled, sparking outrage, laughter, and confusion from passersby while reigniting conversations about Epstein’s ties to the powerful. Across the Atlantic, Hartlepool Council voted unanimously to strip Lord Peter Mandelson of his “Freedom of the Borough” honor, citing his associations with Epstein as incompatible with the town’s values—a stinging rebuke for the former Labour heavyweight in his old political stronghold. Both stories underscored the theme that proximity to Epstein remains a toxic liability, even years after his death.Meanwhile, in Washington, Rep. Jimmy Gomez added a dose of satirical flair with a parody movie poster titled “Forgetting Jeffrey Epstein,” a direct jab at Trump that spread rapidly across social media. Critics dismissed it as childish, while supporters praised it as a cultural weapon that keeps the scandal in circulation. Taken together, the statue, the borough vote, and the meme illustrate how Epstein’s legacy refuses to fade, resurfacing in art, politics, and public ridicule. The powerful may beg for the world to “move on,” but cultural memory—and a heavy dose of sarcasm—keeps dragging Epstein’s shadow back into the spotlight.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Diddy Trial:   What To Expect During Diddy's Sentencing Hearing (10/3/25)

The Diddy Trial: What To Expect During Diddy's Sentencing Hearing (10/3/25)

At today’s sentencing hearing, prosecutors will be pushing for a much longer prison term, pointing to the seriousness of the charges, the harm done, and the wider pattern of behavior they say was laid out at trial. The defense, meanwhile, will argue for a shorter sentence, framing Diddy’s time already served, his public fall from grace, and efforts to show remorse as reasons the judge should go lighter.The hearing itself is expected to feature impact statements from victims, a personal address from Diddy, and possibly materials meant to highlight his family and philanthropic work. The judge will have to balance those competing pictures—on one side, a powerful entertainer accused of using that power to exploit others, and on the other, someone seeking leniency at the end of a career now in ruins. The final decision could fall anywhere between near-time served and a lengthy stretch in federal prison.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Sean 'Diddy' Combs faces sentencing after conviction on prostitution-related charges  - ABC NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Octopus Grows Tentacles: PROMIS, Maxwell, Mossad, and Epstein’s Network (Part 2) (10/3/25)

The Octopus Grows Tentacles: PROMIS, Maxwell, Mossad, and Epstein’s Network (Part 2) (10/3/25)

The PROMIS software scandal and the Jeffrey Epstein case, while separated by decades and context, share strikingly similar hallmarks. PROMIS began as a prosecutorial tool but was allegedly modified by intelligence services like Mossad to include backdoors, enabling covert surveillance when installed in foreign governments and financial institutions. Robert Maxwell, the British media tycoon and suspected Mossad operative, was said to have played a major role in distributing this compromised software worldwide. His involvement linked media, finance, and espionage, and his mysterious death only deepened suspicions. PROMIS thus became emblematic of how intelligence agencies use front men, plausible enterprises, and legal suppression to conceal operations while extracting information and leverage from their targets.Epstein’s operation followed a parallel structure. Through Ghislaine Maxwell — Robert Maxwell’s daughter — the same networks of access and intelligence may have carried forward into a different form of compromise: sexual blackmail rather than software surveillance. Epstein’s properties were wired for monitoring, his connections spanned politics and finance, and his prosecution was undermined by plea deals and sealed files, much like PROMIS inquiries were stifled by classified reports and redactions. In both scandals, powerful people were protected, evidence was obscured, and key figures died under suspicious circumstances. The echoes between PROMIS and Epstein suggest not isolated scandals but a recurring playbook of intelligence tradecraft: fronts, leverage, secrecy, and coverups designed to protect those at the very top.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
