Gone But Not Forgotten: Mekayla Bali

In her interview with The Times, Denise George portrayed herself as the lone crusader working for the people of the U.S. Virgin Islands who would not be intimidated by the legacy of Jeffrey Epstein. She described the private island known as “Hell Island” and the systemic abuse of young women that took place there, and explained how her office pursued justice for the victims even while facing massive political and financial pressure.In her Bloomberg interview, George reflected on her aggressive legal strategy, including suing JPMorgan Chase & Co. for allegedly enabling Epstein’s trafficking network, and how her termination as Attorney General followed soon after. She discussed the settlement reached by the Virgin Islands in connection with Epstein’s estate, stressed the importance of holding financial institutions accountable, and made clear that her firing was closely tied to the high-stakes legal battles she waged.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Terrance Williams, a 27-year-old father of four, disappeared in Naples, Florida, on January 12, 2004, after his car broke down and he was last seen with Collier County Sheriff’s Deputy Steven Calkins. Calkins claimed to have dropped Williams off at a Circle K, but no evidence supports this, and similar discrepancies arose when Calkins was connected to the disappearance of Felipe Santos, an undocumented immigrant, three months earlier under nearly identical circumstances. Both men were last seen alive in Calkins' custody, and despite failed polygraph tests and inconsistent statements, no criminal charges have been filed against him. Terrance’s mother, Marcia Williams, has fought tirelessly to keep the case in the public eye, but nearly two decades later, both cases remain unsolved. Despite ongoing investigations and renewed interest, neither man has been found, leaving their families seeking justice and closure.(commercial at 8:48)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In June 1972, five-year-old Adrien McNaughton disappeared without a trace during a family fishing trip at Holmes Lake, Ontario, sparking one of Canada’s largest manhunts. Despite extensive search efforts involving hundreds of volunteers, police, and military personnel, no evidence of Adrien was ever found. Over the years, various theories emerged, including that he got lost in the wilderness or was abducted, but no definitive answers surfaced. The case was revisited in 2016 through the popular podcast Someone Knows Something, which reignited public interest but still provided no resolution. In 2019, remains found near the lake were initially suspected to be Adrien's, but tests ruled them out. To this day, Adrien McNaughton’s disappearance remains one of Canada’s most haunting unsolved mysteries, leaving his family and the nation with more questions than answers.(commercial at 7:47)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s unpublished memoir The Billionaire’s Playboy Club recounts her recruitment into Jeffrey Epstein’s world as a 16-year-old working at Mar-a-Lago, where she says Ghislaine Maxwell lured her in with promises of opportunity and travel. The manuscript describes how she became trapped in Epstein’s orbit, allegedly forced into sexual encounters with powerful men, including Prince Andrew, and ferried across his properties in New York, Florida, and the Virgin Islands. Giuffre paints a detailed picture of coercion, psychological manipulation, and the disturbing normalization of exploitation within Epstein’s high-society circle.In this episode, we begin our journey through that memoir.   to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Virgina Giuffre Billionaire's Playboy Club | DocumentCloudBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Federal authorities allege that the ring busted for running illegal sports and card-games used highly advanced and coordinated cheating technology. In the poker portion of the scheme, underground high-stakes games were manipulated using rigged shuffling machines that secretly read the deck’s cards and transmitted which players held strong hands to an off-site operator, who then signaled a co-conspirator at the table (called the “quarterback” or “driver”) to direct bets accordingly. Devices included poker tables equipped with hidden X-ray cameras beneath the felt to identify face-down cards, chip trays with built-in analyzers/cameras, decoy cellphones to relay information, and decks marked so that only accomplices wearing special lenses or glasses could see the marks.In the sports-betting arm of the investigation, insiders harvested and sold non-public information about professional basketball players’ injuries, playing time, and game-day decisions. Players or coaches allegedly tipped off conspirators to when they would sit out or exit early due to an injury, creating prop-bet opportunities. Wagers were placed accordingly on unders or player performance outcomes, using insider info to create a virtually guaranteed edge. The two schemes overlapped, involving organized-crime networks, professional athletes, and complex laundering of ill-gotten proceeds.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:How mafiosi and NBA stars used rigged card shufflers, X-ray tables and secret contact lenses in poker scamBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Prince Andrew’s downfall is one of the most humiliating collapses in modern royal history. Once celebrated as the Queen’s proud, battle-tested son, he’s now the monarchy’s biggest embarrassment—stripped of his titles, frozen out of public life, and quietly told to stop using “Duke of York” in any official capacity. His friendship with Jeffrey Epstein destroyed his reputation, and that infamous BBC interview finished the job. The “I don’t sweat” defense, the “Pizza Express in Woking” excuse, and the tone-deaf denial turned him into a global punchline. Now, even within his own family, he’s a ghost—technically still a prince, but one without purpose, honor, or credibility. The palace’s silence speaks louder than any statement: Andrew is done.Historically, plenty of dukes have fallen from grace—some lost their heads, some lost their thrones—but none have been publicly humiliated like Andrew. His disgrace didn’t come from war or treason but from arrogance and entitlement in the age of social media, where every lie is immortal and every excuse becomes a meme. The monarchy has erased him one step at a time, preserving the crown while letting him fade into oblivion. He’s not the Duke of York anymore—he’s the Duke of Nowhere, condemned to live out his days as a cautionary tale about power, privilege, and the price of believing you’re untouchable.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
