Mega Edition: Prince Andrew Gets Disinvited From A Whole Host Of Events (5/14/26)
Today00:52:48Tap to summarizePrince Andrew saw his standing within the royal family collapse dramatically in the aftermath of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, and one of the clearest public signs of that fall came when he was quietly pushed aside from major royal ceremonies tied to the Order of the Garter. After years of mounting public outrage over his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and the disastrous fallout from his BBC Newsnight interview, Andrew increasingly became viewed as a liability to the monarchy itself. Reports surrounding Garter Day celebrations made it clear that senior royals and palace officials were deeply concerned about the optics of allowing Andrew to appear prominently alongside working members of the royal family during one of the monarchy’s most symbolic public events. The situation became so toxic that even ceremonial traditions like the ringing of bells and public processions became politically sensitive, with concerns that Andrew’s presence would overshadow the institution and reignite public anger about Epstein and the unanswered questions surrounding Andrew’s relationship with him.The decision to sideline Andrew from portions of the celebrations was widely interpreted as an effort by the palace to create distance between the disgraced prince and the rest of the royal family. While palace statements often framed the moves in careful diplomatic language, the reality was difficult to ignore: Andrew had become radioactive in public life. Critics argued that the monarchy spent years protecting him before finally realizing the Epstein scandal had permanently damaged his public image beyond repair. Once a senior royal with military honors, international influence, and a central role in royal ceremonies, Andrew was reduced to an embarrassing presence whose attendance at public events risked drowning out everything else. The exclusion from Garter Day festivities became symbolic of his broader exile from royal life — a visible reminder that the Epstein scandal did not merely tarnish Andrew’s reputation, but fundamentally altered his place inside the monarchy itself.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
Transcribe →Mega Edition: Alan Dershowitz Hits The Circuit To Talk About Jeffrey Epstein (5/13/26)
Today00:42:44Tap to summarizeAfter Jeffrey Epstein’s death in 2019, Alan Dershowitz rapidly became one of the most visible public defenders of the broader Epstein narrative on television, podcasts, radio shows, and opinion programs. Rather than quietly distancing himself from a scandal that had consumed much of the public conversation, Dershowitz aggressively inserted himself into the media cycle, appearing across cable news networks and talk shows to defend his own reputation, attack accusers, criticize journalists, and frame himself as a victim of false allegations connected to Epstein’s crimes. Time and again, he positioned himself as both legal analyst and participant, blurring the line between objective commentary and personal damage control. Critics have long argued that Dershowitz’s media blitz was less about uncovering truth and more about managing fallout from his own years-long association with Epstein, especially as court documents, flight logs, testimony, and civil litigation continued drawing renewed attention to the social and legal network surrounding Epstein after his death.What has frustrated many observers is that Dershowitz never truly disappeared from the conversation. Years later, he still regularly appears on television, podcasts, and political talk programs discussing Jeffrey Epstein, the investigations, the release of court files, and the motivations of Epstein’s accusers and critics. Instead of treating the matter with restraint, Dershowitz has often approached the media campaign with a combative posture, repeatedly revisiting old grievances while portraying himself as unfairly targeted by the public and press. To critics, the spectacle has come to symbolize one of the most uncomfortable aspects of the Epstein saga: the ability of powerful, well-connected figures to remain fixtures in elite media circles despite longstanding public controversy surrounding their relationship with Epstein. The result is a strange dynamic where one of Epstein’s most famous former defenders continues to occupy airtime discussing the scandal almost as if he were merely a detached observer rather than someone deeply intertwined with the story itself.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
Transcribe →All Roads To Full Jeffrey Epstein/Ghislaine Maxwell Transparency Lead Directly To The NPA
Today00:15:13Tap to summarizeIn November 2020, lawyers representing a Jeffrey Epstein victim filed a legal motion demanding that the U.S. Department of Justice release previously concealed information related to Epstein’s secret 2007 non-prosecution agreement. The motion centered around a troubling gap in documentation—specifically, missing emails from then-U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta’s office during the period when the controversial plea deal was negotiated. Victims’ attorneys argued that these missing records could reveal undisclosed communications, potential misconduct, or improper coordination between Epstein’s defense team and federal prosecutors.The legal team emphasized that the absence of this material undermined public trust and cast doubt on the government’s narrative surrounding Epstein’s prosecution. “I think it calls into doubt everything that we've been told about the case,” said one of the attorneys, urging the DOJ to come clean about the full extent of its dealings with Epstein. The motion underscored the growing belief among survivors and their advocates that the original agreement—which allowed Epstein to avoid federal charges and protected unnamed co-conspirators—was not just flawed, but potentially the product of behind-the-scenes corruption or manipulation that still has not been fully disclosed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Lawyers for Epstein victim seek 'previously concealed information' from Justice Department - ABC NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
Transcribe →Rumors Of A Relationship Between Prince Andrew And Ghislaine Maxwell Are Reignited
Today00:16:32Tap to summarizeThe persistent rumors of a romantic relationship between Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew have been reignited by the forthcoming book The Rise and Fall of the House of York by royal biographer Andrew Lownie. In the book, Lownie presents testimony from insiders and former friends of the Duke of York who claim Maxwell and Andrew shared more than just a social friendship. According to the book, the two were romantically involved, with some sources describing them as “an item” during the 1990s. Maxwell, Lownie writes, was obsessed with status and saw Andrew as both a romantic target and a royal stepping stone. Their relationship, according to these accounts, was well known among those in their inner circles—casting doubt on the prince’s repeated insistence that he barely knew her.These claims put Prince Andrew’s public denials under fresh scrutiny and deepen the sense that he was far more involved with the Epstein-Maxwell operation than he’s admitted. If Maxwell and Andrew were romantically entangled, it suggests that he wasn’t just a royal caught in the wrong company—but a man emotionally and personally tied to Epstein’s chief accomplice. This complicates his attempts to distance himself from the scandal, particularly in light of the settlement he paid to Virginia Giuffre. Lownie’s revelations don’t just challenge the official narrative—they threaten to obliterate it, exposing the possibility that the prince’s entanglement with Maxwell was neither incidental nor peripheral, but intimate, calculated, and deeply compromising.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew Had 'Affair' With Ghislaine Maxwell: Book - NewsweekBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Today00:14:56Tap to summarizeAllegations have circulated that Jeffrey Epstein financially supported the education of children connected to Cecile de Jongh, including claims that he covered tuition costs. These claims generally stem from broader scrutiny of Epstein’s financial relationships in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where he maintained significant business and personal ties. As part of that scrutiny, questions have been raised about whether payments tied to Epstein were directed toward educational expenses for individuals within de Jongh’s family, potentially as part of a wider pattern of financial influence.Cecile De Jongh has denied the allegations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
Transcribe →The Push To Refurbish Ghislaine Maxwell's Image Kicks Into Overdrive
Yesterday00:15:41Tap to summarizeGhislaine Maxwell is not a misunderstood socialite or a victim of circumstance—she is a convicted child trafficker who played a central role in one of the most grotesque abuse networks in modern history. Despite overwhelming evidence, multiple survivor testimonies, and a guilty verdict, there is a growing effort—from media figures like Greg Kelly to outlets like Newsmax—to subtly rehabilitate her image, casting her as either a reformed figure or a potential source of truth. This revisionism is not only insulting to survivors, but it also signals a broader campaign to erase accountability and soften the reality of what Maxwell did. Her actions weren’t peripheral—they were essential to the machinery of Epstein’s exploitation, and any attempt to paint her as anything less than complicit is an act of betrayal.The Department of Justice floating the idea of using Maxwell as a cooperative witness only compounds the insult, suggesting the same system that failed to protect victims for years now wants to prop up one of their abusers as an instrument of justice. This is not accountability—it’s legacy management dressed in a badge. Anyone involved in this whitewashing campaign, whether in government or media, becomes an enabler by default. The line is clear: you either stand with the survivors and the truth, or you stand with the cover-up. And if you choose to rehabilitate Ghislaine Maxwell in any form, you’ve chosen your side—and it is not justice.to contact me:bbbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
Transcribe →Jeffrey Epstein, Treasury Officials, and the Early Cryptocurrency Questions Around Iran (Part 2) (5/13/26)
Yesterday00:23:21Tap to summarizeA recent investigation by Drop Site News claims that Jeffrey Epstein was consulted by officials within the U.S. Treasury Department during the Obama administration as policymakers grappled with the growing role of cryptocurrency in sanctions enforcement and negotiations involving Iran. According to the report, Treasury officials sought Epstein’s perspective on emerging technologies like Bitcoin and blockchain at a time when concerns were growing about how digital currencies could be used to evade U.S. sanctions or finance illicit activity. The article argues that Epstein’s involvement reflected his deep connections within elite financial and political circles, even after his 2008 conviction in Florida. The report also frames Epstein as someone attempting to position himself at the intersection of finance, intelligence, geopolitics, and emerging technology, particularly as cryptocurrency began reshaping global financial systems.The investigation further ties the discussion to broader concerns about Iran’s use of cryptocurrency to bypass Western sanctions and move money outside traditional banking systems. The article notes that Iranian-linked entities, including groups tied to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, have increasingly relied on crypto infrastructure and foreign exchanges to conduct transactions shielded from U.S. enforcement mechanisms. Against that backdrop, the report portrays Epstein’s interactions with Treasury officials as part of a much larger and more complicated web involving sanctions policy, blockchain technology, global finance, and geopolitical maneuvering. The piece also situates these revelations within Drop Site’s larger series examining Epstein’s alleged connections to intelligence figures, foreign governments, and international financial networks.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein Advised U.S. Treasury on Crypto During Obama’s Iran Sanctions PushBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Transcribe →The Investigation Into Jeffrey Epstein Expands In New Mexico And Colombia (5/13/26)
Yesterday00:13:54Tap to summarizeThe investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s activities in both Colombia and New Mexico has expanded dramatically in recent months as newly released files and renewed public pressure have forced authorities to revisit areas that critics say were ignored or minimized for years. In Colombia, a court has now ordered immigration authorities to turn over travel and entry records connected to both Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell after questions intensified surrounding their ties to former Colombian president Andrés Pastrana and other elite figures in the country. Newly released DOJ files reportedly contain references to meetings, flights, and visits involving Epstein’s network in Colombia, including claims that Maxwell traveled there multiple times and interacted with politically connected individuals. Colombian journalists and investigators have increasingly pushed for transparency, arguing that Epstein’s reach into Latin America may have been far deeper than previously acknowledged and that the public deserves access to the full scope of those connections.Meanwhile, in New Mexico, the long-neglected focus on Epstein’s Zorro Ranch has exploded into a full-scale state-level investigation involving law enforcement searches, a legislative “truth commission,” subpoena powers, cadaver dogs, drones, and renewed criminal inquiries. Authorities in New Mexico reopened investigations after millions of newly released Epstein files contained fresh allegations tied to the ranch, including accusations of trafficking, abuse, and claims that potential burial sites may exist on or near the property. Critics have pointed out that unlike Epstein’s Manhattan mansion or Little Saint James, Zorro Ranch was never properly searched during the height of the federal investigations, despite repeated allegations from survivors who said abuse occurred there. Now, state investigators, lawmakers, and outside legal teams are attempting to piece together decades of activity at the ranch, with officials openly acknowledging that the scope of what occurred in New Mexico may have been far larger than originally understood.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein files: Colombia court orders full disclosure about visits by Epstein, MaxwellNew Mexico lawmakers want answers about what happened at Epstein's Zorro RanchBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
Transcribe →House Democrats Hold Palm Beach Field Hearing on Jeffrey Epstein Investigation (5/13/26)
Yesterday00:12:14Tap to summarizeToday’s field hearing in Palm Beach is being held by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee as part of the broader congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, his criminal network, and the institutional failures that allowed him to operate for years in Palm Beach County. The hearing is taking place near Epstein’s former Palm Beach mansion and is centered heavily on survivor testimony, expert witnesses, and renewed scrutiny of the infamous 2008 non-prosecution agreement that allowed Epstein to avoid federal charges while serving an unusually lenient county jail sentence with work release privileges. Ranking Member Robert Garcia has framed the hearing as an effort to revisit “ground zero” of the scandal and examine how local prosecutors, federal authorities, and powerful institutions failed to stop Epstein even after extensive allegations had already surfaced publicly.The hearing is technically a “shadow field hearing,” meaning it is being conducted by the minority party rather than as a formal full committee proceeding, so witnesses are appearing voluntarily and there is no subpoena power or sworn testimony requirement. Still, Democrats are using the event to keep public pressure on the broader Epstein investigation, especially amid ongoing disputes over the release of Epstein-related files and accusations that authorities minimized or contained the scope of the scandal for years. Several lawmakers and survivors are expected to focus on Palm Beach’s role in the original investigation, the recruitment of underage girls in the area, and the long-running failures of accountability surrounding Epstein and his associates.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
