The Moscow Murders and More

​Bryan Kohberger's defense team has recently filed motions to suppress certain evidence ahead of his August 11, 2025, trial for the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students. A former FBI special agent characterized these efforts as attempts to create an "illusion" of a weak prosecution case, aiming to influence potential jurors. The defense sought to exclude terms like "psychopath" and "sociopath" from the trial, a request partially granted by Judge Steven Hippler, who ruled such labels require expert validation. Additionally, the defense's motion to omit Kohberger's 2020 essay on crime scene handling was denied, and the judge indicated that the 911 call from the victims' roommate would likely be admitted, albeit possibly in a redacted formThe defense also argued that prosecutors were delaying discovery, a claim undermined when they acknowledged receiving all requested materials. Experts suggest these tactics aim to delay proceedings and cast doubt on the prosecution's case. Former FBI agent Jonathan Gilliam noted that the defense appears more focused on portraying the prosecution's case as insufficient rather than asserting Kohberger's innocence. Similarly, former D.C. homicide detective Ted Williams observed that the defense is employing a strategy of challenging various aspects of the case, hoping to find elements that might resonate with the jury.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger case: Fmr FBI agent says defense is trying to create 'illusion' | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Bill Barr's deposition before Congress on Jeffrey Epstein was a masterclass in calculated deflection. While Barr insisted that Epstein's death was “absolutely” suicide, he conceded that the prison surveillance system had “blind spots”—a detail that conveniently leaves just enough room for speculation without providing definitive answers. His reliance on flawed or incomplete camera footage, combined with his dismissal of alternative forensic perspectives, came off less like transparency and more like institutional damage control. Instead of holding the Bureau of Prisons accountable, Barr's narrative positioned the failures as unfortunate but inconsequential, a stance that fails to satisfy the public demand for clarity.Just as troubling was Barr's evasiveness when pressed about Donald Trump's knowledge of Epstein. He admitted to having spoken with Trump about Epstein's death but couldn't recall when one of those conversations occurred—an astonishing lapse considering the gravity of the matter. His reasoning that “if there were more to it, it would have leaked” was not only flippant but dismissive of the very real history of suppression, obstruction, and selective disclosure that has defined the Epstein saga. By leaning on institutional trust in a case defined by betrayal of that very trust, Barr's testimony did little more than reinforce suspicions that the Department of Justice has long been more concerned with containment than accountability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Barr-Transcript.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein were quick to condemn Kash Patel's claim that there was “no credible evidence” of Epstein trafficking victims to anyone but himself. They pointed out that the public record alone undermines Patel's statement. Virginia Giuffre's sworn depositions, the Maxwell trial testimony, and multiple FBI interview summaries (FD-302s) make direct references to high-profile individuals. Survivors also reminded the public that members of Congress, including Rep. Thomas Massie, have already stated in hearings that victims named more than 20 powerful men—including billionaires, politicians, and a prince—to whom they were trafficked.They accused Patel of either ignoring or deliberately minimizing the mountain of corroborating evidence. Beyond official court documents and sworn testimony, survivors criticized him for deferring to prior DOJ conclusions without releasing the raw FBI reports or victim statements. They demanded transparency in the form of unsealed FD-302s, noting that nothing in Epstein's controversial non-prosecution agreement prevents their disclosure. Survivors said Patel's statement not only insults them but perpetuates the cover-up, and they called for immediate accountability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein Survivors Blast FBI Director Kash Patel For Claiming 'No Credible Information' Financier Trafficked Women to OthersBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The story of Alexander Acosta and Kash Patel reveals how two different stages of the Jeffrey Epstein saga were managed by institutions more interested in containment than justice. Acosta, as U.S. Attorney in 2008, has long been portrayed as the architect of Epstein's sweetheart plea deal, but in reality he acted as a middleman executing a decision sanctioned by Main Justice. The immunity clause that protected Epstein's co-conspirators was not his invention; it was authorized at higher levels of the DOJ. Acosta ultimately became the convenient scapegoat, forced to resign years later and repeatedly grilled by Congress, while the true architects of Epstein's leniency remained untouched and hidden from public view.Patel's more recent denial before Congress that there was “no credible evidence” Epstein trafficked girls to others represents the next phase of institutional failure. His statement directly dismissed sworn survivor testimony and years of documented evidence, effectively signaling that the FBI had no interest in exposing Epstein's wider network. Instead of closing the book, Patel reignited demands for transparency, with lawmakers and survivors calling for the release of sealed FBI interview files. Together, Acosta and Patel's roles illustrate how the system managed Epstein's case: first by gutting prosecution, then by narrowing investigation, both times protecting the powerful while leaving survivors unheard.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

During a House Judiciary Committee hearing in September 2025, Ranking Member Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) moved to subpoena the CEOs of four major banks—JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Bank of New York Mellon, and Deutsche Bank—for “suspicious activity reports” these banks allegedly filed related to Jeffrey Epstein and his associates. The motion claimed that roughly $1.5 billion in transactions tied to Epstein had been flagged as suspicious.However, in a narrow vote (20-19), Republicans on the committee led by Chairman Jim Jordan moved to table the motion—effectively killing it—so the subpoena did not proceed. Only Rep. Thomas Massie broke ranks with his party to support the subpoena. The blocking of the subpoena came amid broader efforts by Democrats to force more disclosure about Epstein's financial transactions through banks, as well as the handling of Epstein files by law enforcement.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:GOP shuts down House Democrats' move to subpoena Jeffrey Epstein banksBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Washington has long perfected the art of political theater, where outrage is loudly paraded before cameras only to evaporate when accountability is required. On the campaign trail, fiery speeches about corruption and justice come easy—rhetoric designed for applause, not action. Yet when those same figures sit under oath, the fire dies out, replaced by carefully hedged statements and dismissive legal jargon. It's not about uncovering truth; it's about protecting power.That's the script Kash Patel followed to the letter. After crowing about Epstein's crimes for political gain, he turned around and downplayed survivor testimony as “not credible” when speaking before the Senate. The hypocrisy couldn't be clearer. What once served as an applause line became an inconvenient truth, quickly discarded in favor of denial. The mask slipped, the act collapsed, and what was revealed was not a defender of justice but yet another operator shielding the powerful under the guise of credibility.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Mark Middleton, a former aide to President Bill Clinton, was found dead on May 7, 2022 at Heifer Ranch in Perryville, Arkansas. Authorities ruled his death a suicide, noting that he was discovered hanging from a tree with an extension cord around his neck and a shotgun wound to his chest. His family later confirmed that he had been battling depression, which had worsened in the months before his death. They also sought to have photos and videos from the scene sealed to protect their privacy.Despite the official ruling, Middleton's death sparked widespread speculation and conspiracy theories because of his political connections, particularly his past ties to Clinton. Questions were raised about the details of the scene, including conflicting reports about the presence of a weapon. Some used the case to fuel the so-called “Clinton body count” narrative, though investigators found no evidence of foul play. The controversy highlighted how high-profile political associations can transform personal tragedy into public suspicion, with unanswered questions and internet chatter overshadowing the official findings.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Jeffrey Epstein was able to evade real justice in Florida through a combination of wealth, connections, and a deeply compromised legal system that bent over backward to accommodate him. In 2008, despite overwhelming evidence that he had sexually abused dozens of underage girls, Epstein secured a non-prosecution agreement (NPA) with DOJ. This sweetheart deal allowed him to plead guilty to minor state charges—soliciting prostitution from a minor—while avoiding federal charges that could have put him away for life. The deal was struck in secrecy, without informing Epstein's victims, in blatant violation of the Crime Victims' Rights Act. Instead of facing true consequences, Epstein was sentenced to just 18 months in a county jail, where he was granted work release for 12 hours a day, six days a week, allowing him to return to his office and continue his life of luxury. Even within jail, he received special treatment, reportedly having his own private wing and access to amenities most inmates could only dream of.Beyond the legal system's corruption, Epstein's ability to avoid justice was reinforced by his powerful network, which included high-profile politicians, business moguls, and celebrities. Florida prosecutors initially identified at least 36 underage victims, yet law enforcement's pursuit of him was deliberately stifled. Acosta later admitted that he was told to “back off” because Epstein “belonged to intelligence,” a cryptic remark that only fueled speculation about deeper government entanglements. The failure of the justice system was not just a legal oversight but a calculated betrayal of Epstein's victims. Law enforcement, prosecutors, and the courts all played a role in ensuring he walked free, sending a clear message that power and money could override even the most heinous crimes. It wasn't until over a decade later—after mounting public pressure and investigative journalism—that Epstein was arrested again in 2019. But by then, he had already spent years laughing at a justice system that had been complicit in shielding him from real accountability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Michael Reiter is the former Chief of Police for the Town of Palm Beach, Florida, and played a pivotal role in the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's criminal activities. Under his leadership, the Palm Beach Police Department launched a probe into allegations that Epstein was sexually abusing underage girls at his Palm Beach mansion. Reiter's team gathered substantial evidence, including witness testimonies and physical evidence, exposing a pattern of exploitation. Frustrated by what he viewed as lenient treatment of Epstein by prosecutors, including the controversial plea deal brokered by federal attorneys, Reiter took the unprecedented step of bypassing local authorities and forwarding the case to the FBI. His efforts were instrumental in bringing national attention to Epstein's crimes, though they also highlighted systemic failures in the justice system. Reiter's actions are widely regarded as a courageous stand against powerful interests.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

During his deposition, former Attorney General Bill Barr confirmed that Prince Andrew was always someone the Southern District of New York wanted to question in connection with the Jeffrey Epstein case. Barr explained that Andrew was regarded as a witness the DOJ hoped to interview, given the allegations raised by Virginia Giuffre and the supporting evidence investigators had compiled, such as travel and hotel records. He noted there was an ongoing “dispute” regarding Andrew's cooperation, highlighting how prosecutors publicly stated he wasn't cooperating, while Andrew's camp insisted otherwise.Barr also clarified that, despite the SDNY's interest, he did not recall ever being informed that Andrew had been officially elevated to the level of a “subject” or “target” of the investigation. In Barr's account, Andrew remained in that gray zone of being a “person of interest” — someone the DOJ wanted information from, but not someone the department was actively moving to prosecute or extradite. This distinction reinforced how Andrew's royal status and wealth seemed to keep him shielded from the more aggressive legal pursuit others in Epstein's orbit faced.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew was 'at least' a witness in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, reveals former chief US prosecutor as he recalls 'zero cooperation' press conference in newly-released Epstein files | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Former Attorney General William Barr resurfaced in the Epstein debate this week, testifying before Congress that Jeffrey Epstein's 2019 death was “undoubtedly suicide.” Barr acknowledged severe lapses in prison security, including broken cameras and inattentive guards, but maintained that these amounted to negligence, not conspiracy. His certainty, however, reignited public skepticism, as many critics argue the unanswered questions surrounding Epstein's death make any definitive conclusion premature.Meanwhile, FBI Director Kash Patel faced heated questioning in a separate congressional hearing about the bureau's handling of Epstein's files. Patel insisted the FBI has complied with all legal obligations but admitted he had not personally reviewed the materials, a revelation that angered lawmakers and survivor advocates. Democrats accused him of stonewalling to shield powerful figures, while Republicans defended his position that releasing certain documents could compromise ongoing cases.Adding further intrigue, Patel confirmed the FBI is open to investigating whether a disputed 2003 signature in Epstein's “birthday book” belongs to Donald Trump. Trump has denied its authenticity, calling it a forgery, but Democrats quickly demanded an independent forensic review. With Barr closing the door on further questions about Epstein's death, Patel hedging on transparency, and the Trump signature stirring new controversy, the scandal remains unresolved—continuing to haunt America's political, legal, and social institutions six years after Epstein's death.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Jeffrey Epstein was reportedly terrified of his former cellmate, Nicholas Tartaglione, a former police officer facing charges for multiple murders. Epstein's fear stemmed from an alleged violent encounter between the two while they were housed together at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in New York. Shortly before Epstein's first apparent suicide attempt in July 2019, he was found injured in his cell, and he reportedly accused Tartaglione of assaulting him. However, Tartaglione denied any involvement, claiming that he had actually tried to help Epstein and refuted allegations that he had harmed him. Given Tartaglione's background—charged with killing four men in a drug-related crime—Epstein's fear of him fueled speculation that his life was in danger behind bars, adding to the broader concerns and theories surrounding his eventual death.​Documents obtained by the Associated Press under the Freedom of Information Act reveal detailed insights into Jeffrey Epstein's final days at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) before his death in August 2019. These records indicate that Epstein was increasingly distressed, experiencing difficulty sleeping, and expressing fears about his safety within the facility. Despite a prior suicide attempt, he was removed from suicide watch and placed in a regular cell, a decision now scrutinized for its appropriateness. The documents also highlight significant lapses in protocol, including guards failing to perform routine checks and falsifying records to cover their negligence. Additionally, there were reports of malfunctioning surveillance cameras outside Epstein's cell, further complicating the circumstances surrounding his death. These revelations have intensified public skepticism and fueled ongoing debates about the adequacy of the measures taken to prevent Epstein's suicide.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The two guards on duty at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) the night Jeffrey Epstein died, Tova Noel and Michael Thomas, claimed to have fallen asleep and failed to check on him for several hours, despite being required to conduct routine checks every 30 minutes. Instead, they falsified records to cover up their negligence, leading to widespread speculation about whether their inaction was due to incompetence or something more sinister. Adding to the controversy, the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) report from the scene raised further doubts, as first responders reportedly found Epstein in a condition inconsistent with immediate resuscitation efforts, with rigor mortis already setting in, suggesting he had been dead for longer than officially stated. The conflicting accounts, missing surveillance footage, and the guards' suspicious behavior have fueled theories that Epstein's death was not simply a suicide, but rather a silencing operation orchestrated to protect powerful individuals implicated in his crimes.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In this 2008 case, Jane Doe No. 1 v. Jeffrey Epstein, Haley Robson, and Sarah Kellen, the plaintiff sought to have her lawsuit returned to state court after the defendants removed it to federal court. Epstein and his co-defendants argued for keeping the case at the federal level, while the plaintiff maintained that state jurisdiction was proper. The motion to remand, filed on August 18, 2008, was fully briefed with responses and replies from both sides, giving the court a complete record for review.After considering the arguments and reviewing the filings, the court issued its opinion and order remanding the matter back to state court. The judge determined that federal jurisdiction was not appropriate in this instance, meaning the claims against Epstein, Robson, and Kellen would proceed through the state court system rather than in federal court. This ruling ensured that the case would be handled under state-level legal procedures rather than federal oversight.to conctact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:USCOURTS-flsd-9_08-cv-80804-0.pdf (govinfo.gov)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Todd Blanche's CNN interview about his sit-down with Ghislaine Maxwell has been met with skepticism for good reason. Blanche framed his conversation with her as an exercise in transparency, but his insistence that it was “impossible” to determine if she was credible rang hollow, especially given the mountain of contradictions and lies Maxwell has already told under oath. Instead of pressing her on the details of Epstein's network, Blanche largely leaned into a narrative that it was up to the “public” to decide, effectively punting the DOJ's responsibility to establish facts. For someone in his position, such hedging looks less like neutrality and more like avoidance.What makes it worse is Blanche's background and the circumstances. As a former Trump lawyer, his presence raises red flags about conflicts of interest, and the softball nature of his questions only fuels suspicion that this interview was more about optics than accountability. Maxwell's transfer to a cushier, low-security facility right after this sit-down only adds to the perception that she is still receiving special treatment in exchange for selective cooperation. The entire spectacle looks less like a hard-nosed inquiry into one of the biggest sex-trafficking conspiracies of the modern era, and more like a carefully stage-managed charade designed to protect the powerful.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Blanche breaks silence on meeting with Ghislaine Maxwell: 'Impossible' to say if she was credible - ABC NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In Britain, a state visit by Donald Trump was jolted when activists projected massive images of Trump and Jeffrey Epstein onto the walls of Windsor Castle. The stunt, which British police quickly shut down, resulted in four arrests on charges of “malicious communications.” Photos of the projection spread globally within minutes, hijacking the carefully staged optics of a royal ceremony and forcing Epstein's name back into headlines through spectacle and shock.Across the Atlantic, a federal judge in Manhattan ruled against unsealing the identities of two women once described as potential co-conspirators in Epstein's network. Prosecutors never charged the women, and the court argued disclosure would expose them to unnecessary harm.

Ghislaine Maxwell's proffer session with the DOJ was less about truth and accountability and more about performance and deceit. The entire premise of a proffer is simple: you trade truth for a chance at leniency. But Maxwell didn't come to the table with intelligence, evidence, or leads that could help dismantle Epstein's far-reaching web. She came armed with a rehearsed script of lies and character assassinations. She weaponized her time in that room not to aid justice, but to smear survivors who had already borne the crushing weight of humiliation in courtrooms and the press. The newly released emails now strip away any doubt about what happened—they show that Maxwell didn't stumble or misremember. She perjured herself over and over, carefully contradicting her own sworn statements. This was deliberate, malicious dishonesty. And yet, instead of being dragged back to court with perjury charges and buried under the consequences, she was inexplicably rewarded with cushier accommodations. Sitting across from her during this travesty was none other than Deputy Director Todd “Baby Billy” Blanche, a man who should have cut the session short the moment the lies started, but who instead sat back, nodded, and let justice be mocked.The fallout from this disaster stretches far beyond Maxwell herself. For survivors, it was another betrayal layered on top of years of indifference and ridicule. They were once again slandered, this time under the very nose of the government agency tasked with protecting them. Their truth, earned through blood and tears, was tossed aside so Maxwell could preserve her own skin. For the public, the message couldn't be clearer: the Department of Justice is not an impartial arbiter of the law, but a stage where the rich and connected get to rewrite the script in their favor. Accountability was promised, but what America got instead was a rigged performance where lies were treated as cooperation, and perjury was treated as a perk. A real justice department would have treated her dishonesty as a direct assault on the rule of law, stacking charges on her until her arrogance collapsed. But instead, Blanche and his colleagues chose complicity over courage, shielding Maxwell from consequences and exposing to everyone watching that in America, justice isn't blind—it looks the other way when power is in the room.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In his opening statement, Patel described what he called the “original sin” of the Epstein investigation as being how Alex Acosta handled the case back in 2006. He criticized the limited search warrants used then and said they did not seize as much investigative material as they should have. Patel argued that significant portions of the case were restrained by the original non-prosecution agreement, which included provisions protecting some documents via court orders and limiting later prosecutorial or investigative access.Patel also addressed whether there is credible evidence that Epstein trafficked underage girls to other individuals (i.e. beyond himself). He said there is no credible information that such trafficking to third parties has been proven. He asserted that if he had seen such evidence, he would have pursued those charges. He emphasized that under his administration, the FBI is working to release all “credible information … legally able to do so,” while acknowledging legal limits.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Kash Patel claims no evidence Jeffrey Epstein trafficked girls to anyone but himself | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Prince Andrew came under scrutiny after documents revealed he told bankers to call Buckingham Palace when they questioned a £750,000 payment tied to him. The transaction raised compliance concerns, prompting officials to seek clarity on whether it was legitimate. Instead of offering a straightforward explanation, Andrew reportedly directed them to his Palace office, effectively leaning on his royal status to quell the inquiry.The payment's origins and purpose stirred suspicions, especially given Andrew's already controversial financial dealings and public scandals. The move highlighted how he allegedly relied on the prestige of the monarchy to shield himself from financial accountability, deepening concerns about his judgment and raising questions over whether he abused his royal position for personal protection.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Courtney Wild and Haley Robson, two women who say they were abused by Jeffrey Epstein, filed a defamation lawsuit against journalist Julie K. Brown in 2022. They argue Brown's book Perversion of Justice contained false claims that harmed their reputations. Wild says the book wrongly described her as having had intercourse with Epstein and being raped, allegations she denies. Robson, meanwhile, claims Brown portrayed her as complicit in Epstein's operations after she refused to be interviewed for the book.According to the lawsuit, Brown's reporting left both women branded in ways that distorted their roles in the Epstein saga, causing reputational damage and emotional distress. The plaintiffs allege that Brown pressured them and misrepresented facts for dramatic effect, leaving them to suffer fallout in their personal and professional lives. The case underscores the tensions between journalistic storytelling and survivor testimony in high-profile abuse investigations.Courtney Wild and Haley Robson, both survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse, wrote powerful letters to top executives at JPMorgan—among them CEO Jamie Dimon—accusing the bank of enabling Epstein's conduct by keeping him as a client for many years, despite knowing or having reason to know that there were serious abuse allegations. They ask JPMorgan to acknowledge that it benefited from the relationship (through transactions, accounts, etc.), to admit wrongdoing or mistakes, and to take steps to make amends—both to them and to other survivors. Wild and Robson frame their demand not just in moral terms but in legal and institutional accountability: that the bank should own up, not hide behind fine print or internal policies.They also stress that JPMorgan's public statements and depositions (including Jamie Dimon's) have downplayed or denied knowledge of Epstein's abuse or minimized the bank's role. In their letters, they challenge that narrative: they maintain that JPMorgan had ample warning of red flags and thus cannot claim complete ignorance. They call for transparency—release of internal documents, full cooperation, and concrete reforms—to ensure what happened with Epstein doesn't happen again under the bank's watch.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Theresa Helm has alleged that Epstein's estate has been uncooperative with survivors in terms of transparency, accountability, and compensation. She and other claimants have brought civil lawsuits against the estate, accusing it of rape, sexual battery, false imprisonment, and of perpetuating a system that allowed Epstein and his enablers to continue abusing and trafficker women and minors. Helm has called for the release of federal documents related to Epstein's cases, arguing that they are essential for understanding the full scope of what happened, who was involved, and how much oversight (or negligence) there was.She has also alleged that many survivors were recruited under false pretenses (e.g. “job interviews,” modeling, legitimate opportunities), and that the estate has not done enough to address the harms done or to compensate victims fairly. Some of the lawsuits in which she is involved (including Teresa Helm et al v. Epstein's estate) seek not only monetary damages but acknowledgment of wrongdoing, accountability for enablers, and public disclosure of records. Helm emphasizes that this is about more than money—it's about exposing structural wrongdoing and ensuring survivors' voices are heard.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:DisplayFile.aspx (vicourts.org)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The JonBenét Ramsey case is a high-profile, unsolved murder mystery that occurred in Boulder, Colorado, in 1996. JonBenét Ramsey was a 6-year-old beauty pageant contestant who was found murdered in her family's home on December 26, 1996. Her parents, John and Patsy Ramsey, reported her missing and claimed to have found a ransom note demanding $118,000.However, later that day, JonBenét's body was discovered in the basement of the Ramsey's home. She had been strangled and had a severe head injury. The circumstances surrounding the murder, including the ransom note and the fact that the family did not immediately contact the police, raised suspicions and made the case highly publicized.The investigation was marked by controversy and mishandling. Suspicion initially fell on the Ramsey family, including JonBenét's parents and her older brother, Burke. They were subjected to intense media scrutiny, but they maintained their innocence.The case was complicated by a lack of physical evidence and a ransom note that appeared to be written within the Ramsey home. Some investigators and experts suggested that an intruder might have been responsible, while others believed the family might be hiding something.The Boulder police were criticized for not securing the crime scene properly, and their handling of the case came under scrutiny.Despite years of investigation and several grand jury proceedings, no one was ever charged or convicted in connection with JonBenét Ramsey's murder.To this day, the case remains unsolved, and it continues to be a subject of public fascination and speculation, with various theories and suspects proposed over the years.In this episode, we hear from Jonbenet Ramsey's father who talks about the differences in how the Moscow Murders investigation was handled and how his daughters case was handled, and how Boulder PD had just stuffed their pride, he thinks that his daughters killer would have already been brought to justice.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:JonBenét Ramsey's dad says Idaho murders probe shines a light on failings by police in his daughter's case | The US Sun (the-sun.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The Idaho Supreme Court has granted a change of venue for Bryan Kohberger's trial, moving it from Latah County to Ada County. This decision was made after Kohberger's defense raised concerns over finding an impartial jury in the original county due to the high-profile nature of the case. Kohberger is accused of the brutal murders of four University of Idaho students in November 2022, a crime that has garnered significant media attention and community impact.In addition to the venue change, the Idaho courts have assigned District Judge Steven Hippler from the Fourth Judicial District to oversee the case moving forward. Kohberger, who has been in custody since his arrest, will be transferred to the Ada County Jail as the trial preparations continue. This move aims to ensure a fair trial by reducing local bias that could influence the outcome. The upcoming proceedings are expected to be closely watched as the legal process advances in a new jurisdiction.(commercial at 8:45)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger judge announces new location for Idaho murders trial | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Many critics inside and outside Parliament argue that Starmer showed poor political judgment by appointing Mandelson as UK Ambassador to the US despite known associations with Jeffrey Epstein. Leaked emails revealed Mandelson had defended or supported Epstein after his 2008 conviction, and expressed views questioning that conviction. Although some of these connections had long been reported, additional content and its extent were only fully disclosed after Mandelson's appointment. Opponents say Starmer should have immediately known that such red flags made the appointment untenable. The delay in reacting — first defending Mandelson, then firing him once the media published further revelations — has amplified the accusations of weak oversight and lack of risk assessment.Within the Labour Party, there's growing frustration over what many see as Starmer's misreading of both optics and substance. Backbenchers and senior MPs have called for full transparency about the vetting process: what he was told, when, and by whom. Opposing parties are demanding apologies to Epstein's victims, and some suggest that if Starmer cannot adequately account for these failures, his position could become unsustainable — especially if the controversy damages Labour's standing in upcoming local elections. The controversy feeds into a broader narrative among critics that Starmer has repeatedly made questionable appointments, and lacks decisiveness and political sharpness when warning signs emerge.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Keir Starmer breaks silence over Mandelson sacking: ‘Had I known then what I know now, I'd have never appointed him' | The IndependentBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The House Oversight Committee has received hundreds of pages of new material from Jeffrey Epstein's estate following congressional subpoenas. These include Epstein's will, the infamous 2008 non-prosecution agreement, entries from his longtime address book, and a heavily redacted “birthday book” that Ghislaine Maxwell compiled for Epstein's 50th birthday in 2003. The book contained messages, photos, and drawings from associates, sparking scrutiny because of one note signed “Donald” alongside a crude sketch, which Democrats say points to Donald Trump. Trump has flatly denied it, calling the note fake and politically motivated.The estate said it redacted names and identifying details of minors and private individuals to protect victims. It also emphasized it does not possess a so-called “client list” of people involved in Epstein's sex-trafficking crimes, despite years of speculation. The handover reflects growing congressional pressure, led by Rep. James Comer and the House Oversight Committee, to uncover what Epstein's records reveal about his finances, associates, and possible political connections.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein estate turns over more documents to House committeeBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The Epstein scandal continues to resurface through new waves of headlines, each one pulling different corners of power back into the spotlight. Donald Trump has filed a $15 billion defamation lawsuit against The New York Times, accusing it of maliciously tying him to Epstein through disputed documents and reporting. At the same time, Melania Trump secured a rare retraction and apology from The Daily Beast after it published claims—based on Michael Wolff's commentary—that she was introduced to Donald through Epstein's world. Both stories underscore how volatile and litigious the Epstein narrative remains, especially when it brushes against the Trump family.Meanwhile, on Capitol Hill, Congressman James Comer has vowed to release any Department of Justice or Epstein estate documents tied to Prince Andrew, promising the American public full transparency. The files are said to include correspondence, travel logs, and testimonies that could reignite scrutiny of Andrew's dealings with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Buckingham Palace, which has spent years shielding Andrew from the worst fallout, is bracing for renewed scandal, while survivor advocates welcome the promise of sunlight after decades of secrecy. The potential publication of these files signals that the Epstein story remains unfinished and still capable of shaking global institutions.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Jeffrey Epstein's operation cannot be understood through the lens of a traditional sex trafficking ring. Unlike figures such as Heidi Fleiss, Epstein wasn't in it for monetary gain or running a transactional enterprise. His network operated on two levels: the first was driven by his personal compulsions, where he targeted vulnerable high school girls in Palm Beach and New York to satisfy his own deviance. The second level was more strategic—trafficked women, often brought in by Ghislaine Maxwell or Jean-Luc Brunel, were used as leverage, positioned before powerful men in Epstein's properties to entangle them in compromise and silence.This dual structure transformed his crimes into something far more insidious than prostitution or trafficking-for-profit. Epstein weaponized abuse itself, turning victims not only into prey but into tools of influence. The men who participated weren't mere clients—they became co-conspirators, drawn into a system where their indulgence bound them to Epstein's web of secrecy and power. In this sense, Epstein's empire was less about sex as commerce and more about sex as control, creating a machinery of corruption that blurred every line between victim, perpetrator, and accomplice.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Prince Andrew is the ultimate cautionary tale of wasted privilege. He was born with every advantage imaginable—castles, titles, taxpayer-funded luxury, and a job description so easy it bordered on parody: wave, cut ribbons, attend parades, and stay out of scandal. That's all it would have taken to coast quietly into old age as a harmless relic of the monarchy. But instead, Andrew chose arrogance, sleaze, and stupidity. From clinging to Jeffrey Epstein after his conviction, to babbling about sweat conditions and Pizza Express alibis on Newsnight, to humiliating himself with excuses that became memes, he torched his reputation with breathtaking incompetence. Where A Bronx Tale's Sonny mourned wasted talent, Andrew embodies wasted privilege—proving that even the most cushioned life can collapse when handled by a fool.Now stripped of duties and titles, Andrew haunts royal estates like a ghost, exiled by the very institution built to protect him. He isn't remembered as a naval officer, a duke, or even “the Queen's favorite son”—he's remembered as a global punchline. His disgrace isn't Shakespearean tragedy but slapstick farce: a man who could have lived in effortless dignity but instead chose degeneracy and delusion. His legacy is forever tied to sweatless denials, pizza defenses, and the Epstein scandal—his crown of privilege melted down into a crown of mockery.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Sarah Ransome alleged that Jeffrey Epstein kept or claimed to keep sex tapes involving powerful men such as Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, Richard Branson, and Donald Trump. In emails and exhibits later unsealed in court, she claimed that recordings existed of sexual acts on Epstein's properties, and that these tapes were used for leverage or blackmail. She suggested she either had access to some of this material or believed it existed, and pointed out that people in Epstein's orbit lived in fear that such videos could surface.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Survivors and victims allege that 301 East 66th Street, a New York City condominium building tied to Jeffrey Epstein, was used as a hub in his trafficking network. Various witnesses say that people involved in coordinating, recruiting, or facilitating abuse—like Sarah Kellen, Nadia Marcinkova, Adriana Ross, and others—had access to or worked out of units in that building. They've also claimed that underage girls were housed in multiple apartments there, sometimes several girls to a unit, and that the building served not merely as living quarters but as a location for parts of the abuse to take place.Victims also say the building was part of a broader system of control and deception. It's alleged the ownership structure was opaque, providing a way to obscure who precisely was responsible for what went on inside. Some have claimed they were brought there under false pretenses (job offers or modeling opportunities), groomed, and then coerced into sexual activity. The claims include that Epstein—or people in his orbit—used the building to conceal the scale of the abuse and maintain oversight (staff, security, transport) so that the trafficking could continue with fewer questions.Teresa Helm gave an exclusive interview the Mirror recently and in the interview she talks about the time she stayed at Jeffrey Epstein's building at 301 E. 66th street.

Nadia Marcinkova's role in Jeffrey Epstein's world is complicated, and her story is more nuanced than the headlines often suggest. Recruited as a teenager, she was quickly absorbed into Epstein's circle and presented to some victims as his “sex slave” — even referred to by Epstein as his “Yugoslavian sex slave” in a disturbingly casual way. Multiple survivors alleged that she both participated in and facilitated abuse, which paints her as a perpetrator in some accounts. Yet at the same time, the age at which she was first brought under Epstein's influence raises serious questions about whether she was herself a victim — manipulated, groomed, and coerced into normalizing abuse until she became part of the machinery.This dual role — simultaneously appearing as both a survivor of exploitation and, later, as someone implicated in perpetuating it — has made her story one of the most difficult to untangle. Unlike others who were clearly in positions of power, Marcinkova's trajectory blurs the line between agency and coercion. After Epstein's death, she reinvented herself professionally, founding an aviation company, distancing her public image from the scandal. But the unresolved questions about her early recruitment, her complicity, and whether her actions were those of a willing participant or someone shaped by years of grooming highlight the tragic complexity of Epstein's network, where victimhood and culpability were often forced to coexist.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
