Ghislaine Maxwell And Her Initial Roster Of Witnesses During Her Trial
When Judge Alison Nathan ordered the defense to submit its potential witness roster before trial, Maxwell’s lawyers presented a sprawling list of over 30 witnesses, some of them overseas, including former assistants, social friends, employees, and at least one member of Epstein’s inner circle like Eva Andersson-Dubin (the former Miss Sweden and wife of billionaire Glenn Dubin). The list even included several individuals who had been named in press reports or depositions as having seen Epstein’s conduct firsthand. The defense also proposed “character witnesses” meant to paint Maxwell as a victim of selective prosecution and an unfair press, and they floated calling experts in psychology, law enforcement procedure, and even media ethics. But when the trial began, almost the entire roster evaporated. Out of more than 30 potential names, only nine actually took the stand, and many of those offered procedural or character evidence rather than firsthand accounts.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein And The Cash Grab Against His Estate
Since Jeffrey Epstein’s death in 2019, his estate has faced a flood of lawsuits from victims, governments, and financial institutions seeking accountability for the massive sex-trafficking operation he built. Multiple women filed civil suits within weeks of his death, alleging they were sexually abused as minors and lured into Epstein’s network under false pretenses. The U.S. Virgin Islands’ Attorney General also sued the estate in 2020, accusing it of operating a “criminal enterprise” from Epstein’s private islands. That case ended in 2022 with a $105 million settlement — one of several massive payouts that drained what was once a $650 million estate. Victims’ lawyers accused the estate’s executors of slow-walking claims and hiding documents to limit exposure, while federal lawmakers demanded access to Epstein’s records, ledgers, and calendars to uncover who else was involved.As the civil claims mounted, two of Epstein’s closest advisers — lawyer Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn — were sued for allegedly aiding and abetting the trafficking operation, marking a rare step in holding the inner circle accountable. The estate also became entangled in lawsuits with banks like Bank of America and Bank of New York Mellon over their financial ties to Epstein’s accounts, deepening the controversy around how his operation was sustained for so long. By 2024, the executors admitted that the estate was running low on funds after paying settlements and legal costs, only to later receive a massive tax refund that swelled its assets again — sparking outrage that Epstein’s associates could still profit. Years later, the estate remains a legal battleground symbolizing how deep, durable, and well-protected Epstein’s empire truly was.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Sam Bankman Fried, Ghislaine Maxwell And The Lawyer Who Represented Them Both (10/20/25)
Sam Bankman-Fried raised eyebrows when he hired Mark Cohen, the same attorney who represented Ghislaine Maxwell during her high-profile sex-trafficking trial. Cohen, a former federal prosecutor and co-founder of the law firm Cohen & Gresser, was part of Maxwell’s defense team that argued she was being scapegoated for Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes. Bankman-Fried brought Cohen on to lead his defense following his arrest in late 2022, a move that immediately sparked comparisons between the two notorious cases — both involving allegations of manipulation, power, and privilege shielding elites from accountability.The decision was strategic, not coincidental. Cohen’s expertise lies in navigating complex federal prosecutions involving massive evidence and global attention — precisely what Bankman-Fried faced in his FTX fraud case. His partner, Christian Everdell, another veteran of the Maxwell defense, also joined the SBF legal team. The pairing signaled that Bankman-Fried’s defense would mirror Maxwell’s in tone and sophistication, emphasizing procedural scrutiny and reasonable-doubt tactics over moral argument — a calculated legal strategy to counter the government’s sweeping narrative.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein And The Vanishing Video
During late July 2019, Epstein was found semi-conscious in his cell with marks on his neck in what authorities called his first suicide attempt. Surveillance footage from outside his cell, recorded on July 22–23 of that year, was said to capture the event or circumstances around it. However, prosecutors later disclosed that the footage “no longer exists” — it was lost or deleted, purportedly due to a technical or clerical error involving preservation of video from the wrong tier.The disappearance of that video has been heavily criticized by legal observers, investigators, and conspiracy theorists alike. The fact that evidence from a highly significant incident—one that could bear on the conditions of Epstein’s incarceration and safety protocols—cannot be accounted for raises serious questions about record-keeping, digital evidence chain of custody, and the transparency of prison surveillance systems.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Man in Epstein's Cockpit: Larry Visoski’s 2009 Deposition (Part 15) (10/20/25)
In his October 2009 deposition, taken during the Jeffrey Epstein v. Bradley Edwards defamation lawsuit, longtime Epstein pilot Larry Visoski described his decades of employment under Epstein and the routine nature of his work. Questioned by victims’ attorney Bradley Edwards, Visoski confirmed that he had flown Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and numerous guests—some of them prominent figures—across Epstein’s properties in New York, Florida, New Mexico, and the Virgin Islands. Represented by Critton & Reinhardt, Visoski repeatedly emphasized that his duties were strictly professional: piloting aircraft, maintaining schedules, and ensuring safe transport. When pressed about the ages of female passengers, he claimed he never knowingly flew minors and denied witnessing any sexual activity or misconduct aboard Epstein’s planes.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

From Courtroom to Chalet: The Secret Bond Between Epstein and His Prosecutor Matt Menchel (10/20/25)
Matthew I. Menchel, once the Chief of the Criminal Division at the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida, played a pivotal role in shaping the 2007–2008 non-prosecution agreement that spared Jeffrey Epstein from serious federal charges. As the FBI gathered overwhelming evidence against Epstein for trafficking and abusing underage girls, Menchel’s office instead negotiated a secret plea deal that granted Epstein and his co-conspirators broad immunity. Reports later revealed that Menchel had blocked early efforts to arrest Epstein and failed to disclose a prior romantic relationship with one of Epstein’s defense attorneys, Lilly Ann Sanchez—a glaring ethical lapse identified by the Department of Justice’s internal review. His influence within the Miami office made him a key architect of what became one of the most infamous legal failures in modern U.S. history, a betrayal of both the victims and the principles of equal justice.Now, newly surfaced documents have reignited outrage by revealing that Menchel’s connection to Epstein may have gone far beyond the courtroom. Evidence of ski trips, dinners, and personal contact between the two men paints a damning picture of proximity and favoritism that directly undermines any claim of impartiality. If true, these revelations transform an already scandalous case into a full-blown indictment of prosecutorial integrity, suggesting the man charged with holding Epstein accountable was instead socializing with him. For the victims, and for a public already disillusioned by power’s protection of predators, these details are not just shocking—they confirm what many suspected all along: justice in Epstein’s case wasn’t blind. It was bought, brokered, and betrayed from within.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein had dinners with a top Florida prosecutor on his case, docs showBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Why Won't The BOP Or The DOJ Offer Any Clarity On The Ghislaine Maxwell Transfer? (10/20/25)
The Metropolitan Police (London) have opened an active investigation into allegations that Prince Andrew, Duke of York in 2011 asked one of his taxpayer-funded protection officers to dig up personal information on Virginia Giuffre, who accused him of sexual abuse when she was under 18. According to reports, the bodyguard was allegedly given Giuffre’s date of birth and U.S. Social Security number by the prince, with the aim of finding a criminal record or other damaging material. The police have stated they are “actively looking into” the claims, though so far it is not publicly confirmed whether the officer complied with the request.These revelations come amid wider turmoil for Prince Andrew and the monarchy: he has recently stepped back from some royal titles, including giving up the “Duke of York” style. The allegations raise serious questions about misuse of police resources and the role of protection officers in alleged smear campaigns. The family of Virginia Giuffre (who died by suicide earlier this year) and campaigners are calling for further action, including stripping the prince of his remaining titles, and for parliamentary scrutiny of how the settlement he made with Giuffre and his relationship with convicted sex-offender Jeffrey Epstein have been handled.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:London police investigating report Prince Andrew asked officer to dig up "dirt" on Virginia Giuffre - CBS NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jeffrey Epstein And The Leon Black Emails (10/20/25)
According to newly reported emails between Jeffrey Epstein and Leon Black, Epstein pressed Black with aggressive financial demands for years, particularly around 2015 to 2016. Epstein repeatedly insisted on annual payments of roughly US$40 million for providing tax-and-estate-planning services, seeking an upfront US$25 million plus multiple US$5-million bi-monthly installments. He chastised Black’s children and financial advisers, calling them incompetent and saying that their actions had created a “really dangerous mess.”While Black had engaged Epstein for advisory services and reportedly paid over US$150 million over a period of time, the correspondence underscores how Epstein sought to impose unusually high compensation and used personal attacks and pressure tactics. Black maintains that Epstein’s role was limited to legitimate financial work, and investigations (such as the independent review by law firm Dechert LLP) found no conclusive wrongdoing by Black, though substantial payments and tax-planning strategies remain under scrutiny from the U.S. to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein sent nasty emails to Apollo founder Leon Black demanding millions of dollarsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
