Mega Edition: Judge Preska Explains Her Plan to Unseal Maxwell/Virginia Files (11/13/25)

Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s unpublished memoir The Billionaire’s Playboy Club recounts her recruitment into Jeffrey Epstein’s world as a 16-year-old working at Mar-a-Lago, where she says Ghislaine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.

In late 2022, a plaintiff identified as “Jane Doe 1” filed a civil suit in Manhattan federal court accusing JPMorgan Chase of enabling Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking operations by facilitating his financial transactions, ignoring red flags, and providing essential services to his network. The complaint asked the court to certify the case as a class action, representing all women who were abused or trafficked by Epstein during the period when he held accounts or related financial relationships with JPMorgan (from about January 1, 1998, to August 19, 2013).On June 12, 2023, Judge Jed Rakoff granted Jane Doe’s motion for class certification under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23, officially recognizing the case as a class action.   JPMorgan later agreed to a tentative $290 million settlement with the now-certified class of Epstein survivors, a deal which was subsequently approved by the court.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In her civil racketeering (CICO) investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s operations in the U.S. Virgin Islands, former Attorney General Denise George aggressively sought detailed financial records and transactional documents to trace how Epstein’s wealth was structured, moved, and possibly laundered through shell companies, banks, and trusts. Her office subpoenaed institutions such as JPMorgan Chase, Deutsche Bank, and Citibank, demanding account statements, wire transfers, communications, and internal documents tied to more than 30 corporate entities and trusts connected to Epstein.George’s subpoenas and lawsuits did more than simply map Epstein’s money flows—they asserted that major financial players may have knowingly facilitated or concealed elements of his sex trafficking enterprise. In December 2022, she filed a federal suit accusing JPMorgan of “turning a blind eye” to Epstein’s operations and of financially benefiting from themIn her effort to dig into Jeffrey Epstein’s financial networks under the Virgin Islands’ CICO (racketeering) statute, Attorney General Denise George asked U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska to unseal and grant her access to court documents, including deposition transcripts and filings in related Epstein-linked proceedings. In September of 2020, Preska granted part—but not all—of George’s request, allowing her to review certain sealed materials while still protecting sensitive portions.This decision by Preska gave George a stronger footing in her investigation, enabling her team to follow paper trails, understand prior testimony, and press subpoenas against financial institutions with more clarity on the evidentiary landscape. At the same time, Preska maintained limitations on disclosure, balancing public interest and transparency against privacy, privilege, and security concernsto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Bradley Edwards, a longtime attorney for dozens of Jeffrey Epstein survivors, has been outspoken about Prince Andrew’s role in the Epstein saga, though he remains cautious given legal constraints. Edwards has said he believes Andrew does have relevant information about Epstein’s network and associations. He has suggested that the Prince’s connections—though not necessarily indicative of direct wrongdoing—warrant deeper scrutiny. Edwards has also reiterated that he is bound by client privilege, and so cannot disclose details if his clients have not permitted itEdwards, who has represented many of Jeffrey Epstein’s survivors, has aggressively pursued accountability not just for Epstein but for those who may have abetted or benefited from his operations. In public interviews and filings, Edwards has argued that Epstein’s transactions, travel, and relationships point to a far larger ecosystem of enabling actors—financial institutions, intermediaries, and elite figures—who must also be scrutinized. He has asserted that his clients deserve full disclosure, demanding that sealed and redacted documents be unsealed to reveal whether names of prominent figures were concealed under the veil of “privacy” or other procedural claims.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

When a prosecutor seeks to limit the alibi of a suspect, it means they are attempting to challenge or restrict the evidence or testimony that supports the suspect's claim of innocence. An alibi is a defense strategy in which the accused asserts that they were somewhere else at the time the crime was committed, thus making it impossible for them to have committed the offense.Here's a breakdown of what it typically entails:Investigation of the Alibi: The prosecutor may investigate the alibi thoroughly to determine its validity. This may involve interviewing witnesses, examining physical evidence, reviewing surveillance footage, or obtaining records that could corroborate or refute the alibi.Challenging the Alibi: If the prosecutor believes the alibi is weak or fabricated, they may seek to challenge it during the trial. This could involve presenting contradictory evidence, questioning the credibility of alibi witnesses, or arguing that the suspect had the opportunity to commit the crime despite the alibi.Motion to Limit or Exclude Alibi Evidence: In some cases, the prosecutor may file a motion to limit or exclude certain aspects of the alibi evidence from being presented in court. This could be based on legal grounds such as relevance, reliability, or procedural rules. For example, if the alibi witness has a history of dishonesty or bias, the prosecutor may argue that their testimony should be excluded.Pretrial Hearing: The judge may hold a pretrial hearing to consider the prosecutor's motion to limit the alibi evidence. Both the defense and the prosecution would have the opportunity to present arguments and evidence supporting their positions.Ruling by the Judge: The judge will make a decision based on the arguments presented and applicable legal standards. If the judge grants the prosecutor's motion, certain aspects of the alibi evidence may be restricted or excluded from the trial. If the motion is denied, the defense will be allowed to present the alibi evidence to the jury.In this episode, we head back up to Idaho to check in on the Bryan Kohberger trial and the battle over his alibi that continues to rage inside of the courtroom.    (commercial at 8:41)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Attorneys in Idaho student homicides argue for pretrial wins | Idaho StatesmanBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

We are learning more about the items that were seized when the police raided Bryan Kohberger's family home in Pennsylvania and several of the more than 60 items were concerning. When we first were discussing this new warrant, it seemed underwhelming. I think it's safe to say that things have certainly changed.(commercial at 7:12)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Knife, gun and ammunition seized from Bryan Kohberger's Pennsylvania home, unsealed warrant reveals | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
