During the civil lawsuit filed by Virginia Giuffre against Prince Andrew, the Duke’s legal team was widely mocked for appearing to scrape the bottom of the barrel in search of credible character witnesses. Instead of producing anyone with real moral...

And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. At this point, we know that Prince Andrew and his legal team will literally grab on to whatever kind of debris is in the wreckage area and attempt to cling on to it with this new article we're going to read tonight. It just slams home that fact. Anybody who would think it's a good idea to try and use Kevin Spacey as a character witness or as a witness to try and make it seem like he was the one who invited Ghislaine Maxwell on the tour of Buckingham palace is not a winning strategy. It is. It defies reason, folks, that these people that are making this kind of money to defend Prince Andrew would continue on this path. I mean, Kevin Spacey, that's like being a serial killer. Insert serial killer here and then using like Jeffrey Dahmer or John Wayne Gacy as an example or as, you know, somebody who is a character witness for you, somebody who is supposed to be believable or a good person. I mean, we're talking about Kevin Spacey here. Somebody who is obviously right in the same boat as these other sick bastards. Somebody who has a ton of bad news around them as well. In fact, let's take a look at some of the things that Kevin Spacey is being accused of. Kevin Spacey has been one of Hollywood's biggest stars, but faced scandal after claims he sexually assaulted Star Trek actor and Anthony rapp, who was 14 at the time. All right, so this is the guy Prince Andrew is going to call up there to, to be his witness. Oh, yeah, it was me who brought Ghislaine Maxwell to the Palace. Meanwhile, we know all of the other times that she's been there. We know all of the other times that they've spent together. So this whole narrative here is just, it's, it's almost unbelievable that they try and pitch it to us. The pair were both in Broadway shows and met at a party in 1986 where Rapp told Buzzfeed. My impression when he came into the room was he was drunk. He picked me up like a groom Picks up a bride over the threshold. But I don't like squirm away initially because I'm like, what's going on? And then he lays on top of me. He was trying to seduce me. I don't know if I would have used that language, but I was aware that he was trying to get with me sexually. 14 years old and this is the guy you're going to call as a character witness, huh? The Queen must be besides herself right now. Can you imagine? I mean, again, if this was my mom, forget it. I would have had every wooden spoon in the neighborhood broken over my ass already. She would have dragged me to the FBI to speak to the FBI. And God forbid I brought up some other scuzzbag and tried to use him as an excuse or a witness. I would have never been able to walk again. On the day Rapp made his allegations, Spacey came out as gay and apologized to the actor saying, I honestly do not remember the encounter. It would have been over 30 years ago. But it's cool because it's over 30 years ago. And you know, since it's so long ago, your behavior is cool. It's acceptable that you were trying to assault a 14 year old boy. Very acceptable. And also it's funny that he would say that he doesn't remember the encounter. Oh yeah, I'm sure you don't remember. It sounds familiar, doesn't it? Who else doesn't remember their encounter? But if I did behave then as he describes, I owe him the sincerest apology for what would have been deeply inappropriate drunken behavior. But if I did, it's always if this, that, this, that. Dude, you did it. Just admit it, man. And this is the guy, remember, that we're going to talk about in this article that Prince Andrew is going to use as a witness or somebody to say that he's the one who invited Ghislaine Maxwell to the Palace. Just keep this all in mind. Keep this whole outline of who Kevin Spacey is framed in your mind as we continue to dig into this article In a second. Others have since come forward with more claims of sexual misconduct, including Heather Unruh, who alleged her 18 year old son was sexually assaulted by The Star in 2016. A civil lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice after it was revealed Unruh deleted text off her son's phone before giving it to the police, while a criminal assault charge was also dropped. I, I mean, because it was Kevin Spacey, that's why it was dropped, because the dude has some money. But these, these boys who were Abused by him. Ah, no big deal. Just get on with your life. Go rub some dirt on it. It's also obscene to me, man. And then the fact that even. We're even here, right, that Prince Andrew would even be thinking about using this guy as a witness or whatever is just. It's. It's disgusting. Documentary filmmaker Tony Montana, that's hilarious. Claims Spacey groped his penis in the Coronet Pub in Los Angeles in 2003, while Roberto Cavus, a former actor at the Old Vic Theater, said that he had fended off two unpleasant advances made by the Star in 2008, which bordered on harassment. And just to circle back for a second here, you notice how when he gets busted for this, he comes out and says, oh, I'm gay. Like that's an excuse. Like, this is the kind of behavior gay people engage in. We know it's not. Gay people are normal, just like the rest of us. They just happen to like somebody or love somebody else. It's nothing more crazy than that. It's nothing more deeper than that. Okay, come out and say you're a gay man to try and use that as a defense. That's gross and offensive to a whole entire community of really good people. Harry Dreyfuss, the son of actor Richard, also claimed Spacey groped him when he was 18 years old. Spacey has also been accused of a number of sexual assaults in England between 1996 and 2013, including one claim he performed a sex act on someone asleep. Police have handed over their investigation to prosecutors, who will decide whether to charge him. Spacey has denied the accusations. Oh, I'm sure he has. And it's funny. They turned it over for the police to investigate. Yeah, I'm sure that's gonna go a long way. I'm sure the police are really gonna investigate this. All the way to the nines, huh? Come on, man. Kevin Spacey as a character witness. What's next? You're gonna bring up. Oh, I don't know. Insert Dictator here as the human rights chairman. All right, so I just wanted to touch on the. The Kevin Spacey outline here real quick before we actually dive into the article. So this is an article from the Daily Mail, and it was authored by Nick Enoch. Prince Andrew wants disgrace actor Kevin Spacey to help him clear his name by telling juror and Virginia Roberts sex assault lawsuit that Ghislaine Maxwell was his guest during guided tour of Buckingham palace in 2002. Prince Andrew allegedly wants disgrace actor Kevin Spacey to help clear his name by telling A jury in the Virginia Roberts sex assault lawsuit that Ghislaine Maxwell was Spacey's guest during a guided tour of Buckingham palace in 2002. We know that's BS. We know that's a lie. We know that's garbage, but this guy's gonna sit here and attempt to run this kind of yap on us. A photo taken during the private tour, which was organized by the Duke, shows Maxwell and Spacey smiling as they sit on the Queen's and Prince Philip's coronation thrones. Andrew had invited Spacey for the tour of the palace. Ghislaine Maxwell came with him, not as a guest of Andrews, a source told the Sun. Oh, no. But was she? Again, this is so hilarious to me, honestly, it's really ridiculous. But he was at your daughter's wedding. He was at the. The 2000 Jubilee. He was at all of these other events. Ghislaine Maxwell had a run of the palace, but just on this occasion, she was, you know, she. You want us to believe that she was Kevin Spacey's guest? Kevin Spacey's plus one? What are you doing hanging out with all of these molesters, all of these human traffickers, all of these sick bastards, Andrew? I don't know one person that abuses women or children. You're in a whole room full of them. Every single time you walk into a room, it seems like the tour which showed Maxwell and the American Beauty actor larking around in the throne room, was arranged for former US President Bill Clinton, who was a friend of Spacy and other VIPs. So again, another guy who's accused of being a sexual abuser. I mean, were they going for, like, the Guinness World Book of Records for the most sexual abusers in a room at the same time? Because there has to be some kind of record that they're looking to set with all of this scum together. The Duke of York wants to distance himself from Maxwell, who is set to be sentenced on sex trafficking crimes on June 28. That is not going to happen. We're going to continue to pound home the point that Ghislaine Maxwell was not only great friends with Jeffrey Epstein, she was great friends with Prince Andrew. And in fact, she was greater friends with Prince Andrew than she might have been with Epstein. To start out, her and her and Andrew were tight, real tight. And we've heard also that they might have been, you know, involved in a bit of a tryst. We've heard the same about Ghislaine Maxwell and Bill Clinton. Kind of a pattern being established Here. No. The source added, if Kevin can convince a jury he he was the crucial link with Ghislaine rather than Andrew, it distances the Prince from her somewhat, and that's crucial. Boy, again, talk about clinging on to the wreckage around the downed ship. This isn't going to help you. Did you just not hear what I just read about Kevin Spacey? Do you think the court doesn't know that about him? So you're just gonna trot this guy up there and say, hey, look, you know what? Here's an idea. I got a great idea. Why don't you just get Keith Ray Neary out of jail and R. Kelly out of jail and have them come and be witnesses for you as well, you epic moron. Andrew also believes such a gifted actor and public speaker could be a very compelling asset in front of a jury. Oh, yeah, real compelling asset. As if nobody knows what Kevin Spacey's up to. You mean to tell me if you were sitting on a jury and some full trotted out Kevin Spacey and as a witness or whatever, you wouldn't choke on your peanuts? Give me a break. This guy's another sick bastard, another fellow traveler, and you want us to believe what he has to say about someone's character? Huh? Oh, yeah, sure. I'm completely sold. I am on board a hundred percent. Said nobody ever. Other men subsequently came forward alleging Spacey had made unwanted advances and sexually harassed them. Spacey has continued to deny all assault allegations. Earlier this week, Prince Andrew demanded a trial by jury. What other kind of trial is there? I mean, really a trial by judge? That's not gonna happen. I mean, if he was really bout about it and he was really the Prince of England, he would have demanded a trial by combat like Tyrion did when he was captured by the Starks. But no, of course, trial by jury. Too bad it's not the old days, right? You. You know, when, like, politicians would have a problem, they'd leave the Senate or Congress and go out back, take 20 steps away from each other, then, you know, have a duel, shoot each other or whatever. I mean, trial by jury. What other kind of trial? You're. Trial by Jerry as a hitback of accusations of rape and sexual assault made by Jeffrey Epstein, sex slave, Virginia Roberts. Now, how about Jeffrey Epstein, survivor? Virginia Roberts, sex slave. What is this, a harem in the seventh century? In his official response to claims made against him by Mr. Roberts five months ago, the Queen's son issued 41 denials rejecting all allegations of wrongdoing, but said a further 40 times that he lacks sufficient information to admit or deny other claims. I mean, it's not like he was there or anything. Not like he lived through this. How would we expect him to have any information on these claims? He wasn't there. He didn't take the picture. He had nothing to do with this. His fingers are too fat. He can't sweat. He's allergic. I mean, am I the only one that sees the ridiculousness of it all here? Am I the only one that sees what's going on here? This guy is playing big time games with everybody, okay? He's never going to admit to what happened, never going to own up. None of that's ever going to occur. The guy is. He talks about, oh, I am an honorable man. I want to do the honorable thing. He doesn't have an honorable bone in his stupid body. He also submitted 11 defenses calling for the case to be dismissed, including that Ms. Roberts claims should be barred by her own wrongful conduct and uncle. And unclean hands. What does that even mean? What they're saying is that Virginia is responsible for helping Jeffrey Epstein, you know, make things happen. You know, she shouldn't be considered a victim here because she has unclean hands. And, you know, the Prince Andrew should get off because of that. Well, we all know that she was a little kid when she was groomed. We all know that Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell molded her into that. They normalized that. They used the grooming process to get her there. And for Prince Andrew to attempt to act like that is a quality defense. To act like using what she went through as a crutch for his own depravity is a good idea. I don't think it's going to work out so well for him, folks. I really don't. His decision to go ahead with the case puts him in a contravention with the Royal Family, whose sources say are desperate. Desperate for him to settle and avoid the spectacle of a trial in New York later this year during the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations. And we already know that the Royal Family is not happy about this. They've come out and said it, or at least through sources have said that they want him to take a plea deal. They want him to get out of court, settle out of court. And it doesn't look like Andrew's gonna go that route. It looks like this dude really thinks that if he goes to a trial by jury, it's gonna end up well for him. A source said Andrew is on a collision course with the palace over this. Earlier this month, the Queen swiftly and ruthlessly forced Andrew to step down and from his remaining royal patronages and demanded he fight the case as a private citizen. Well, I wouldn't exactly say forcefully. Right. The Queen probably wasn't too happy that she had to make Andrew get rid of those titles. She loves him. That's her favorite son, according to all of the reports. So one would believe, or one would think anyway, that she wasn't happy about this. So the whole ruthlessly and swiftly. Yeah, swiftly. About three years, four years too late, five years too late. So not too swiftly. Okay. Andrew has not officially responded to the 73 point civil claim as his lawyers almost immediately had not officially responded to the 73 point civil claim as his lawyers almost immediately applied to a New York judge for it to be thrown out. That was dismissed earlier this month, meaning he now needs to formally answer the accusations against him, including claims that Ms. Roberts was trafficked to him by his friend, pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and forced to have sex with the Duke on three occasions when she was 17. And we all know that he is forcefully denying all of this. And you have to be, you know, reaching at whatever's around you so you don't drown if you're calling on Kevin Spacey to be a character witness. She says this amounts to rape, sexual assault and battery as she seeks unspecified damages, thought to be in the millions of pounds. Andrew's aid admissions were limited to information already public, such as he is a US citizen and resides UK citizen and resides at Royal Lodge in Windsor Estate. So again, he didn't give us anything in that response, right? Nothing. We didn't know. He. He didn't provide anything new. He admits his walk with Epstein in Central park in 2010 and staying at the pedophile's Manhattan mansion on the same trip, both caught on camera. But in his rebuttal of Ms. Roberts complaint, Andrew denies he ever sexually abused her and refuses to admit or deny his assertion that she was Epstein's victim. I mean, wow, he won't even give her that. He won't even admit that Virginia Roberts was abused by Jeffrey Epstein, even with all of the evidence that we have, even though she's been paid out by the estate, even though, I mean, really, that's the kind of obtuse jerk off we're dealing with when we're talking about the Prince of Nothing. He even, quite remarkably, given photographic evidence of the relationship over the years, denies being a close friend of Epstein's girlfriend and now convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell. Andrew's legal team also reject Ms. Roberts accusations that he refused to cooperate with US authorities in their investigations of Epstein and his co conspirators despite officials claiming he has done just that. And I posted an episode yesterday detailing this. The Department of Justice came out and said this dude wasn't cooperating. I mean, what more do they want? He hasn't cooperated, he hasn't done his honorable duty and that's just where we're at. Those are the facts Andrew makes clear he continues to dispute. Ms. Roberts is a resident in the state of Colorado, which allows her to bring the case in the US now. A 38 year old mother of three, she lives in Perth, Australia and has understood Andrew's legal team is still intent to pursue this. In a bid to get the case thrown out. MailOnline has contacted Kevin Spacey and Buckingham palace for comment. Well, you know that they're going to try and get it thrown out and it shows you honestly how weak their defense is. This is what they're going to hang their hats on again, technicalities, loopholes. It's not about innocence because they know if they go that route they're in big trouble. Andrew has no evidence to help him along the way here. All the evidence that we've seen so far is evidence pointing directly against him. So when you're using Kevin Spacey as your life preserver, as somebody that you want to bring in front of a jury, I'm of the opinion that you are good and screwed. All right folks, that's gonna do it for this morning's update. I'll probably probably be back later on at some point with another episode. We'll see where the day leads us. But as usual, there will be some context episodes coming your way. Alright folks, hope everybody has a great night.

Host: Bobby Capucci
Date: May 14, 2026
In this episode, Bobby Capucci scrutinizes the latest desperate legal maneuverings by Prince Andrew, particularly the reported attempt to call disgraced actor Kevin Spacey as a character witness in Andrew’s ongoing legal battle with Virginia Roberts (Giuffre). Capucci breaks down the absurdity and implications of relying on someone with Spacey’s scandalous background to support Andrew’s narrative, using a recent Daily Mail article as a framework for his characteristic, hard-hitting analysis of the Epstein case’s wider net of elites and enablers.
[00:31-05:40]
Capucci opens the episode lambasting Prince Andrew’s legal team for considering Kevin Spacey – himself accused of serial sexual abuse – as a character witness.
Quote:
"Anybody who would think it's a good idea to try and use Kevin Spacey as a character witness... is not a winning strategy. It defies reason, folks, that these people... would continue on this path."
— Bobby Capucci [00:38]
Capucci lists allegations against Spacey (notably Anthony Rapp’s accusation) and highlights the hypocrisy and cognitive dissonance of seeking credibility from a man equally mired in scandal.
Memorable Analogy:
"That's like... using... Jeffrey Dahmer or John Wayne Gacy as... a character witness ... someone who is supposed to be believable or a good person."
— Bobby Capucci [01:10]
Recalls Spacey's infamous public apology and coming out after allegations, criticizing this as a deflection that unfairly involved the LGBTQ community.
[05:41–10:00]
Capucci details multiple claims against Spacey, including incidents involving minors and young men (referencing cases in both the US and the UK), and how many were dropped or not pursued because of technicalities or deleted evidence.
Quote:
"Because it was Kevin Spacey, that's why it was dropped, because the dude has some money. But these boys who were abused by him... just get on with your life. Go rub some dirt on it. It's also obscene to me, man."
— Bobby Capucci [07:51]
Criticizes Spacey’s use of his sexuality as a shield and underscores that his behavior is not representative of any community.
[10:01–17:24]
Capucci transitions into discussing the Daily Mail article:
"Prince Andrew wants disgrace actor Kevin Spacey to help him clear his name by telling jurors... that Ghislaine Maxwell was Spacey's guest during a guided tour of Buckingham Palace in 2002."
Capucci calls this narrative “BS” and “garbage,” reminding listeners of Maxwell’s deep royal connections and presence at numerous events with Andrew, making denials of closeness unbelievable.
Quote:
“Ghislaine Maxwell had a run of the palace, but just on this occasion... you want us to believe she was Kevin Spacey's guest? Kevin Spacey's plus one? What are you doing hanging out with all of these molesters, all of these human traffickers?”
— Bobby Capucci [12:40]
Notes the tour was organized for Bill Clinton, another figure facing allegations—a gathering Capucci sarcastically suggests could win “the Guinness World Book of Records for the most sexual abusers in a room at the same time.”
[17:25–25:30]
“If Kevin can convince a jury he was the crucial link with Ghislaine rather than Andrew, it distances the Prince from her somewhat, and that's crucial.”
— Cited by Bobby Capucci [15:40]
"This is what they're going to hang their hats on again—technicalities, loopholes. It's not about innocence because they know if they go that route they're in big trouble."
— Bobby Capucci [23:45]
[25:31–29:12]
"For Prince Andrew to attempt to act like that is a quality defense... using what she went through as a crutch for his own depravity is a good idea. I don't think it's going to work out so well for him, folks."
— Bobby Capucci [26:30]
[29:13–32:00]
[32:01–34:00]
“When you're using Kevin Spacey as your life preserver, as somebody that you want to bring in front of a jury, I'm of the opinion that you are good and screwed.”
— Bobby Capucci [33:36]
"It defies reason, folks, that these people... would continue on this path." — [00:38]
"That's like using... Jeffrey Dahmer... as a character witness for you..." — [01:10]
“What are you doing hanging out with all of these molesters, all of these human traffickers, all of these sick bastards, Andrew? I don't know one person that abuses women or children. You're in a whole room full of them.” — [12:40]
"This is what they're going to hang their hats on again—technicalities, loopholes. It's not about innocence..." — [23:45]
"When you're using Kevin Spacey as your life preserver... I'm of the opinion that you are good and screwed." — [33:36]
Bobby Capucci delivers the episode with his trademark incredulity, dark humor, and directness, never shying away from blunt analogies or pointing out the absurdity of the legal and social maneuvering by the elite players in the Epstein saga. His tone is both scathing and engaging, laced with sarcasm as he denounces attempts to subvert justice through technical defenses and untrustworthy character witnesses.
Summary useful for catching up:
If you missed the episode, Capucci’s main message is clear: Prince Andrew’s defense is running on fumes if they’re thinking of relying on someone as tainted as Kevin Spacey to vouch for him. The episode unpacks not only the legal absurdity of this gambit, but also the broader, deeply troubling patterns of elite impunity that defined the entire Epstein case—and continues to frustrate survivors and those seeking accountability.
