What's up everyone, and welcome to another episode of the Epstein Chronicles. Ever since the Jeffrey Epstein fiasco began, people have been asking questions about Jeffrey Epstein's so called ties to the CIA. Now, a lot of the conversation around Jeffrey Epstein's ties to the CIA has been washed out recently by all these voices talking about the Mossad angle. And while the Mossads certainly had a place at the table, they weren't the ones preparing the dish that was the CIA. And Jeffrey Epstein and his ties to the CIA are very, very apparent. And some people still want to act like Epstein had nothing to do with intelligence, had nothing to do with the CIA, and was just some kind of lone sicko predator. But that's not the case. And, and I think that there is ample evidence out there to point us in the direction, at the very least, that Jeffrey Epstein was being run as an asset. And in my opinion, his handlers weren't some foreign boogeyman. We have our own scumbags right here in the good old USA who wrote the book on how these operations are supposed to go down. So today we have an article from Radar Online and the headline jeffrey Epstein boasted, I'm never going to be prosecuted as former bodyguard Claim sex predator was protected by CIA and his close friend Trump. And this is from Jeffrey Epstein's former bodyguard. This article was authored by Ryan Brunati. There may have been a major reason Jeffrey Epstein continued to avoid the law and any sort of harsh punishment he was protected by by the CIA. At least that's what his former bodyguard claimed RadarOnline.com can reveal. And we've heard this from the bodyguard previously. And this bodyguard was an ex UFC fighter and he ended up becoming a bodyguard for Jeffrey Epstein. And he's had some very interesting things to say every time he talks about Jeffrey Epstein and what Jeffrey Epstein was up to. Zinoviev said, you don't know who you're messing with and you need to be really careful. Edwards told Palmeri for her podcast series Broken Jeffrey Epstein. You were on Jeffrey Epstein's radar and somebody that Jeffrey pays a lot of attention to which is not good. You don't want to be on Jeffrey's radar. Well, yeah, if the dude's a CIA cutout. Last thing you want, right? Talk about destroying your life. I mean, these people have a lot of different ways that they can wreck you. Upload some shit on your computer. If you, you know, plant some on you, say that you're a terrorist, whatever it might be. And that's one of the biggest intimidation factors used by people like Jeffrey Epstein, according to pal Mary Edwards responded. And I said, well, give me some examples. I mean, who am I messing with? And that's when he looked across the table and whispered three letters. CIA. And look, I've been telling you folks for how long now that that's the power behind this. And I don't think it's like Langley, right? Not the people in the offices that sat down and were like, you know what? We're gonna run an operation and we're gonna have Jeffrey Epstein be the man who is the functioning component of it. I don't believe that happened. I think it's some kind of black operation. You know, the same thing that they were doing when they were bringing drugs into America. That kind of something that's being run off the books. And I think that's where Jeffrey Epstein came in at first as a money man, right? A bundler. But once they realized what they had, his proclivities and the kind of shit he was into, and once they knew that, they knew they hit pay dirt. And from there, the operation bloomed. Zinoviev, a Russian born UFC fighter, drove Epstein around for almost five years during the height of the trafficking operation. And he recalled his first assignment in 2008 during the criminal's brief detention, 13 months at the Palm Beach County Jail with work release was to visit the CIA headquarters in Virginia. And this is very inconvenient to the people that want to push the narrative that this is a Mossad operation. And just to be clear, like I've said from the jump, nobody's absolving the Mossad here, but they're not the key component, and nobody's going to gaslight me into believing that they are. The CIA set the table. The CIA served the meal. Now, the Mossad might have been at the dinner, but they're not the host. According to Edwards, Zinoviev told him it was there. Epstein would attend classes for a week as the only private citizen in the room. At the end of the class, someone handed him a book with a handwritten note inside. Does any of this shock anybody or does anybody dispute this? I certainly don't. This is exactly what we've heard from Jump Street. And Zinoviev's story has remained consistent from the very beginning. Why would he lie? Especially about the CIA? What does he have to gain from that? Zenoviev was told not to read it and to only deliver it to Epstein behind bars. Everybody there knew who he was. He's an important person. And I said, is he in the CIA? Edwards recalled from their conversation. Zenoviev replied, I don't know. Look, he was not in the CIA. Jeffrey Epstein was a free agent. This was a man that was not beholden to any flag or any state. And he certainly wasn't loyal to any country. He was an information broker. Point blank, period. That's what he did. He created these dossiers on powerful people and then he kept them as kompromat material. And if that dossier could be useful to this government or that, Epstein would gladly step in for a price. However, according to former CIA officer John Cipher, the Agency can't use Americans unless they volunteer information and theorized Epstein may have been a hyper fixer. Someone with connections who can get into anywhere. But added Epstein, which have been too risky to touch because of his background. Oh, well, a CIA officer is telling us that he has no skin in the game, huh? Doesn't want to protect the agency or whatever kind of operation they might be running. These are the same people that denied that the CIA was involved in bringing crack to America. If they say there's no record, don't believe them. Cipher told the attorney. In 2008, Epstein pleaded guilty to state charges of solicitation of prostitution and solicitation of prostitution with a minor under the age of 18. He was given a slap on the wrist and sentenced to 18 months in a minimum security facility. Only did 12, by the way. And I don't even know if you can call it serving jail time. Under the agreement, Epstein would be under a work release arrangement in which he returned to the jail to sleep at night. Imagine your cousin Joe getting the same kind of deal. Imagine anyone you know getting that kind of deal. Only Jeffrey Epstein gets that kind of deal. And don't say it's about the money. Diddy didn't get that deal. R. Kelly didn't get that deal. Young thug didn't get that deal, but Jeffrey Epstein did. Oh, and by the way, all those people I just mentioned, they all got hit with rico. Guess who didn't get hit with rico. That's right. Our good friend Egdic Epstein. If Epstein was indeed working with the CIA, which his former attorney Alan Dershowitz denied, the lawyer said he would have gone to the government and said, you know, he's an intelligence agent. Don't prosecute him. Oh, I'm sure that didn't happen in the back room, Alan. I kept my underpants on. Dershowitz.

Don't you have somebody to sue over a pierogi? However, those were similar words Epstein told Edwards during an alleged conversation in 2008 during the same time Edwards was trying to overturn the sweetheart deal. I'm never going to be prosecuted, epstein said, according to Edwards. You know, Trump was my friend, my close friend. And you know, Bill Barr is his boy. Well, we know that Darth Barr is not exactly the arbiter of truth. Not exactly what I would call a reliable narrator. Huh? So if I was somebody who had ties to Donald Trump or Bill Barr and I was in trouble, I'd think that they'd be coming through with the homie hookup as well. I mean, why not, right? The president, 79, has done all he can to separate himself from Epstein, using all types of distractions, telling the media to focus on Bill Clinton and even blaming his loyal supporters for pushing the story. And look, I agree we should be looking at Bill Clinton. He had a lot to do with Jeffrey Epstein, as I've said a million times. But we can chew gum and walk at the same time. And there's plenty of time to look at Trump, plenty of time to look at Clinton, plenty of time to look at Bill Gates, plenty of time to look at everybody. The problem is that the administration and the DOJ said they're not doing that anymore. And by doing that, they have opened this can of worms and the whole last thing could have been avoided by just being transparent. They didn't have to release everything at once, but give us a, you know, plan, a timeline on what's going on. Instead we got libs of TikTok, D.C. drano, Mr. Pressler, and the rest of the people with the white binders and that stupid ass sideshow that they did at the White House. So not only has there been a bunch of mismanagement here, it's been misstep after misstep and they just keep doubling down. It's amazing to watch. You think with all the blowback, they'd be like, you know what, we better reevaluate what we're doing here. We better take a step back and try and figure out how to get this information out in a way that's going to be helpful to the public. But instead, what did he do? Attack the supporters, Call people, you know, all kinds of names, the whole thing. And that might go over great with the base, but what about everybody else? Because like I've said a million times now, President Trump didn't win the election with just MAGA alone. There was a lot of independents that jumped ship and voted for Donald Trump, and a lot of those people voted for him because they thought he was going to be transparent. They thought he was going to tell the truth when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein. And now those folks feel like the old bait and switch has been pulled on them and that they've been lied to. And what could be such a gigantic secret that they're willing to have this much turmoil in the administration? Well, in my opinion, the world finding out that Jeffrey Epstein was being run by the American government would certainly be a secret that the government wants to keep. And in my opinion, there is nothing that they won't do to make sure that that occurs. And I think we're seeing that play out right here in real time once again. But as far as Jeffrey Epstein being a CIA asset, I don't think there's any doubt. And while I don't know if we're ever going to have a smoking gun, I think there's plenty of circumstantial evidence that leads us to that point. So, like usual, we're going to continue swimming through this muck, looking for some clarity as we continue to peel the layers of the Jeffrey Epstein onion back one by one. All of the information that goes with this episode can be found in the in the description box.

Host: Bobby Capucci
Date: April 14, 2026
In this hard-hitting episode, Bobby Capucci investigates the persistent theory that Jeffrey Epstein operated as an asset for U.S. intelligence, specifically the CIA, rather than being merely a "lone sicko predator." Drawing on new claims from Epstein’s former bodyguard, Capucci explores how Epstein evaded prosecution for years and how his elite connections—including politicians, intelligence agencies, and high-profile friends—may have shielded him from accountability. The podcast breaks down the reported revelations, analyzes their implications, and delivers Capucci’s signature no-holds-barred commentary.

This episode of The Epstein Chronicles collates explosive claims about Epstein’s untouched status and unpacks the credibility and implications of his reported CIA connections, primarily through the lens of his former bodyguard's account. Capucci challenges listeners to see beyond sanitized mainstream depictions, arguing methodically that substantial circumstantial evidence suggests Epstein was an American intelligence asset. He condemns governmental secrecy and pledges to persist in exposing the deeper, darker truths underlying the Epstein case—regardless of political affiliations or elite power structures.
