Jes Staley Goes On The Attack And New Reports Of A Cache Of Epstein Videos And Photos

The Jeffrey Epstein scandal stands as one of the most glaring failures of the American justice system, a case where victims were silenced, a secret non-prosecution agreement shielded powerful enablers, and federal custody ended in Epstein’s death under suspicious negligence. Despite civil settlements, oversight reports, and the conviction of Ghislaine Maxwell, the story remains fragmented, unresolved, and tainted by mistrust. The Department of Justice is compromised by its own history in the case, and every unanswered question deepens public suspicion. A federally appointed special counsel is the only mechanism capable of cutting through that distrust—armed with subpoena power, independence from political pressure, and the mandate to follow the evidence wherever it leads.That need is only magnified by the President’s shocking dismissal of the scandal as a “hoax.” Such rhetoric retraumatizes survivors, emboldens enablers, and corrodes faith in the rule of law. When the highest office mocks the reality of child exploitation, independence becomes not just preferable but mandatory. A special counsel would separate truth from politics, provide finality where there has only been denial, and ensure that victims receive recognition instead of erasure. Without such independence, every decision will remain suspect, every survivor’s voice overshadowed, and the system itself further discredited. The choice is stark: let denial bury justice, or appoint a special counsel to prove that no power, no denial, and no president stands above the truth.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Thomas Massie has been steadily pressing forward with his discharge petition to force a floor vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act. As of early September, he was just two Republican signatures short of the 218 needed to succeed. While Massie has managed to secure a handful of Republican allies, including figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Nancy Mace, and Lauren Boebert, most of the GOP has resisted. Party leadership and the White House have actively discouraged members from supporting Massie’s effort, favoring their own oversight mechanisms to control how and when the Epstein files might be released. This leaves Massie in a precarious spot—close enough to create serious pressure, but still vulnerable to stalling tactics within his own party.At the same time, Democrats have unified around the petition, with every member expected to sign. More importantly, the incoming Democrats from recent special elections have already indicated they will add their signatures as soon as they’re sworn in, potentially putting Massie over the top even without additional Republican support. This looming influx of Democratic votes creates a strategic safety net: even if GOP members hold back, the math still leans in Massie’s favor. In effect, the new Democratic arrivals could be the deciding factor that pushes the discharge petition across the finish line, ensuring a vote happens despite Republican reluctance.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Incoming Dems could move Thomas Massie's Epstein discharge petition over finish lineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Joseph Schnitt, a Department of Justice official, was recently caught in a sting operation by a James O’Keefe operative posing as a date on a dating app. During the secretly recorded meeting, Schnitt claimed the DOJ planned to redact Republican names from the Jeffrey Epstein files while leaving liberal names visible, fueling suspicions of political bias in the release of the documents. He also alleged that Ghislaine Maxwell’s transfer to a minimum-security prison was essentially a favor to keep her quiet, and described internal conflict between Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino over whether to release the files.After the footage surfaced, the DOJ quickly distanced itself from Schnitt’s comments, calling them “personal views based on media reports” with “absolutely zero bearing on reality.” Schnitt himself insisted he didn’t know he was being recorded and that he was speaking offhand, not offering insider information. Still, the incident embarrassed the DOJ, provided fresh fuel for critics of the Epstein cover-up, and underscored just how easily an official could spill sensitive claims in an unguarded moment.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Top DOJ Official Spills Jeffrey Epstein Cover-Up Plans to HoneytrapBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Ghislaine Maxwell trial, held in late 2021 in federal court in New York, centered on her alleged role as Jeffrey Epstein’s co-conspirator in a sex trafficking ring that preyed on underage girls for over a decade. Prosecutors accused Maxwell of grooming minors, gaining their trust, and then facilitating or participating in their abuse at the hands of Epstein between 1994 and 2004. The government’s case included testimony from four women, some of whom described in painful detail how Maxwell recruited them as teenagers under the guise of mentorship or financial assistance, only to manipulate them into sexual encounters with Epstein. Flight logs, photographs, and household staff testimony were used to place Maxwell at various Epstein properties and show her long-standing involvement in his lifestyle and operations.Maxwell’s defense team attempted to cast her as a scapegoat, arguing that she was being punished for Epstein’s crimes following his 2019 death in federal custody. They challenged the credibility of the accusers, questioned their motives, and pointed to the time gaps between the alleged crimes and the trial. Ultimately, the jury found Maxwell guilty on five of six federal charges, including sex trafficking of a minor, and not guilty on one count of enticing a minor to travel for illegal sex acts. The conviction marked a rare moment of accountability in a case that had long been plagued by cover-ups, prosecutorial failures, and elite protection. It also opened the door to further scrutiny of Epstein’s network, although many key figures remain untouched.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In April 2021, the Epstein estate became the subject of a new lawsuit brought by an individual identified only as “M.H.” The accuser, a male who worked as a high school intern for Epstein between the summer of 2013 and spring 2014, claims he was under the age of 17 when Epstein forced him into a “sexual performance.” The complaint, filed in New York state court, highlighted this as the first documented allegation from a minor male against Epstein—a significant development in the broader landscape of reported abuse and abuse patterns.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Shortly after Jeffrey Epstein’s death in August 2019, he signed a will on August 9 bequeathing his estimated $577 million fortune into a trust known as the “1953 Trust.” Critics quickly raised concerns that this late-stage move was designed to obscure the identities of beneficiaries and delay or complicate restitution efforts for survivors. The structure of the trust created an additional legal barrier—accusers would need to court’s permission to pierce the trust and prove their claims before accessing assets, potentially prolonging the process by years and limiting immediate redress.Additionally, a U.S. judge rebuked the estate for keeping Epstein’s victims uninformed about the creation and implications of the compensation fund set up in his estate. The lack of transparency surrounding the fund’s establishment and the terms imposed on claimants—including broad releases that protected Epstein’s associates—fueled accusations that the estate was prioritizing secrecy and shielding money from accusers.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Dr. Michael Baden, a veteran forensic pathologist hired by Jeffrey Epstein’s brother to oversee the autopsy, sharply criticized the U.S. Department of Justice Inspector General’s (OIG) report, which affirmed the official finding that Epstein’s death was a suicide due to “negligence and misconduct” by prison staff. Baden called the report “ridiculous” and accused investigators of ignoring key forensic evidence inconsistent with hanging—particularly multiple fractures in Epstein’s neck, such as to the hyoid and thyroid cartilage, which he asserted are exceedingly rare in suicidal hangings based on decades of experience. He emphasized that he was not consulted during the OIG’s investigation, despite his presence at the autopsy, arguing that a thorough probe would have considered these anomalies.The OIG’s report, released in June 2023, concluded that systemic failures—such as guards falsifying records, broken cameras, lack of proper inmate monitoring, and protocol breaches—enabled Epstein to take his own life. It upheld the medical examiner’s suicide ruling and found no evidence of foul play. However, Baden’s dissent, rooted in those distinct injuries and procedural exclusion, has reignited public skepticism and conspiracy theories around Epstein’s death. The divide underscores the tension between institutional conclusions and unresolved forensic questions that continue to haunt this high-profile case.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Forensic Pathologist Slams Dept.
