The Company Man: Alex Acosta and the Art of The Deflection (10/19/25)

The Company Man: Alex Acosta and the Art of The Deflection (10/19/25)

In his recent testimony before Congress, former Labor Secretary and ex–U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta doubled down on his long-criticized defense of the 2008 non-prosecution agreement that allowed Jeffrey Epstein to dodge federal sex-trafficking charges and serve barely a year in a cushy county jail. Acosta told the House Oversight Committee that at the time, he believed a federal trial would have been a “crapshoot” because of what he called limited cooperation from victims and thin evidence — a claim that directly contradicts later Justice Department findings showing that dozens of victims were ready to testify. He also denied having any knowledge that Epstein would be granted work-release, despite extensive records showing the arrangement was approved during his watch. His tone was clinical and detached, as if the systemic betrayal of dozens of trafficked minors was just another bureaucratic footnote.


Lawmakers on both sides were incensed, with Democrats accusing Acosta of rewriting history and showing “zero remorse” for enabling one of the most notorious predators in modern American history. Even some Republicans privately admitted that his testimony came off as evasive and self-serving. Acosta tried to shift blame to subordinates and state prosecutors, but his own department’s inspector general previously concluded that he exercised “poor judgment” and gave Epstein a sweetheart deal that “violated the spirit of the law.” For the victims who have spent years fighting for justice, Acosta’s congressional appearance only confirmed what they already knew — that the powerful protect their own, even when it means selling out the powerless.

Jeffrey Epstein And Liquid Limited

Jeffrey Epstein And Liquid Limited

In the early 2000s, Jeffrey Epstein served as the chairman of Liquid Funding Ltd., an offshore financial entity registered in Bermuda, from November 2001 at least through March 2007. The firm was initially about 40% owned by Bear Stearns and specialized in securitizing complex debt instruments—bundling commercial and residential mortgages into AAA-rated securities. This intricate repurchase ("repo") structure obscured underlying risks and played a part in the broader collapse of Bear Stearns and the 2008 financial crisis.Though Epstein was known better for his criminal activity than his financial acumen, his leadership at Liquid Funding highlights an unusual parallel: he was not only embroiled in illicit trafficking schemes but also entwined in the darkest corners of Wall Street’s pre-crash financial engineering. Despite the potential systemic risk his firm represented, there is no record of tangible consequences—legal, financial, or criminal—stemming from his involvement in Liquid Funding. The company’s role in crisis-era finance remains part of Epstein's shadowy legacy, but the expected regulatory or legal reckoning never came.To contact me:Bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.icij.org/investigations/paradise-papers/jeffrey-epsteins-offshore-fortune-traced-to-paradise-papers/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Ghislaine Maxwell Tapes: Transcripts From Ghislaine Maxwell DOJ Interview (Part 11) (8/27/25)

On August 22, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice released redacted transcripts and audio recordings of a two-day interview it conducted in July with Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year federal prison sentence for her role in Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking ring. During the interview, Maxwell denied ever seeing any inappropriate behavior by former President Donald Trump, describing him as a “gentleman in all respects,” and insisted she “never witnessed the president in any inappropriate setting in any way.” She also rejected the existence of a so-called “client list,” countering years of speculation, and claimed to have no knowledge of blackmail or illicit recordings tied to Epstein.In addition to defending high-profile figures, Maxwell expressed doubt that Epstein’s death was a suicide, while also rejecting the notion of an elaborate conspiracy or murder plot. The release of the transcripts—handled under the Trump-era Justice Department—has stirred sharp political debate. Trump allies have framed her remarks as vindication, while critics and Epstein’s survivors question her credibility, pointing to her conviction and suggesting her words may be aimed at influencing potential clemency or political favor.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Interview Transcript - Maxwell 2025.07.24 (Redacted).pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Spa Day Or Deposition:   The DOJ And Their White Gloved Chat With Ghislaine Maxwell (Part 2) (8/27/25)

Spa Day Or Deposition: The DOJ And Their White Gloved Chat With Ghislaine Maxwell (Part 2) (8/27/25)

The DOJ’s transcripts with Ghislaine Maxwell read less like a deposition and more like a polite coffee chat, with Todd Blanche treating a convicted trafficker as if she were a misunderstood guest instead of a predator. Rather than pressing her for truth, the exchanges gave Maxwell space to “set the record straight,” validating her narrative and laundering her image into something official. The tone was soft, deferential, and absurd — serving not to expose corruption but to protect it, wrapping the cover-up in the illusion of accountability. Survivors were left silenced while Maxwell was gifted the spotlight, turning justice into propaganda.Worse still, many in the media and commentary class framed this transcript as a form of closure. Podcasters, influencers, and columnists repeated the DOJ’s narrative with an air of finality, presenting Maxwell’s statements as meaningful contributions to the record. They highlighted her composure, spoke of nuance, and positioned the exchange as a step forward. In practice, this served less as analysis and more as amplification of a managed script. By portraying the transcript as progress, these voices reinforced the perception that the matter was resolved, when in reality it functioned only to shield institutions, minimize scrutiny, and reframe a cover-up as resolution.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Morning Update:   Prince Andrew Prepares For A Brand New Epstein Storm To Come Rolling In (8/27/25)

Morning Update: Prince Andrew Prepares For A Brand New Epstein Storm To Come Rolling In (8/27/25)

A memoir titled Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, written by Virginia Roberts Giuffre with journalist Amy Wallace, is scheduled for posthumous release on October 21, 2025, from Alfred A. Knopf (with Penguin Random House involved in audio and ebook editions). The 400‑page manuscript was completed prior to Giuffre’s death by suicide in April 2025, and she had conveyed—via an email to Wallace dated April 1—that it was her “heartfelt wish” for the book to be published regardless of the outcome. Publishers describe the memoir as an unsparing and powerful narrative of trafficking, abuse, and survival, rigorously fact-checked and legally vetted, aimed at spotlighting systemic failures in human trafficking enforcement and championing justice and awareness.Of particular note, Nobody’s Girl includes “intimate, disturbing, and heartbreaking new details” about Giuffre’s experiences with Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and other high-profile individuals—including Britain's Prince Andrew. This marks her first public discussion of Andrew since their 2022 out-of-court settlement, which reportedly involved a multi-million‑dollar payment. In doing so, the memoir is expected to reignite scrutiny and media attention on the allegations Andrew has long denied, resurrecting his central role in a scandal many believed had faded from the headlines.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew struggling as Virginia Giuffre memoir set for release: expert | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Maxwell's House:  The Rise And Fall Of Robert Maxwell (8/27/25)

Maxwell's House: The Rise And Fall Of Robert Maxwell (8/27/25)

Robert Maxwell, born Ján Ludvík Hyman Binyamin Hoch, was a British media proprietor, investor, and Member of Parliament. He was born on June 10, 1923, in Czechoslovakia (now part of Ukraine) to Jewish parents. Maxwell's early life was marked by the turmoil of World War II, during which he fought for the British Army.After the war, Maxwell started building his business empire, primarily in the publishing industry. He acquired Pergamon Press in 1951, which became the foundation of his media holdings. Over the years, Maxwell expanded his business interests into newspapers, including the acquisition of the Daily Mirror Group in 1984, making him one of Britain's most prominent media moguls.Maxwell was known for his flamboyant lifestyle and charismatic personality, often attracting both admiration and criticism. He was a Member of Parliament for the Labour Party from 1964 to 1970, representing Buckingham.However, Maxwell's business practices came under scrutiny, particularly concerning his use of employee pension funds to finance his various ventures. His companies' financial dealings were often opaque, and there were allegations of fraud and embezzlement.In 1991, Maxwell's empire came crashing down when he mysteriously disappeared while sailing on his yacht, the Lady Ghislaine, near the Canary Islands. His body was later found in the Atlantic Ocean, and the circumstances of his death remain controversial. Investigations revealed that Maxwell had been involved in massive financial fraud, with his companies being heavily indebted. The collapse of his empire led to significant financial losses for investors and employees.In this episode we once again pull the curtain back on the House Of Maxwell and get a glimpse of what's inside.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Inside Ghislaine Maxwell's tragic family life: From media tycoon father who died in the Atlantic and the millionaire siblings who suffered bankruptcy, divorce and early death as disgraced socialite appeals against her sex trafficking conviction | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition:   JP Morgan Responds To The USVI's Motion To Strike Affirmative Defenses (Part 3-4) (8/26/25)

Mega Edition: JP Morgan Responds To The USVI's Motion To Strike Affirmative Defenses (Part 3-4) (8/26/25)

JP Morgan has responded to the U.S. Virgin Islands' (USVI) motion to strike several of its affirmative defenses in the ongoing lawsuit related to Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking operations. The bank argues that these defenses are crucial to demonstrate the alleged complicity of the USVI government in enabling Epstein’s activities.JP Morgan contends that high-ranking USVI officials, including former First Lady Cecile de Jongh, played a role in facilitating Epstein’s operations by managing his local companies and helping spread his influence throughout the government. The bank alleges that Epstein’s ties with local political figures allowed him to receive favorable treatment, such as tax benefits and reduced oversight, despite his known criminal background/The USVI's motion to strike these defenses is viewed by JP Morgan as an attempt to avoid exposing the government's own culpability. Conversely, the USVI argues that the bank’s defenses are baseless and are intended to deflect from its failure to act on clear signs of Epstein's criminal behavior​.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.610915.94.5.pdf (courtlistener.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
