Podcasts about Grand jury

This episode begins with Mary and Andrew digesting the 2-1 decision from the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals halting the Trump administration's ability to use the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan nationals accused of being members of Tren de Aragua. Andrew calls the administration's recent arguments “outlandish” before moving to the questionable legality of the U.S. military's deadly boat strike last week – an unprecedented action which left eleven dead. Next, they move to Monday's Supreme Court decision undoing limits set by a lower court on how ICE conducts immigration raids. Plus, a federal judge issues a win for Harvard University on the topic of frozen and terminated funds. Further reading:  The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals' ruling on Trump's invocation of the Alien Enemies Act to deport VenezuelansAnd a reminder: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

One of the biggest concerns whenever a grand jury is empaneled is the secrecy in which it operates. With the defense not being able to be present during the presentation of evidence, things are tilted from the very start. However, in some cases, the state feels that a Grand Jury is the proper path to travel.In this episode, we take a look at the decision to use a grand jury to indict Bryan Kohberger and what that might mean for transparency as we move forward.(commercial at 7:45)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Community kept in the dark with secret Kohberger grand jury | Idaho StatesmanBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

After a Labor Day weekend that saw a judge halt the Trump administration's attempt to deport dozens of Guatemalan children already loaded onto airplanes, Andrew and Mary had planned to start their conversation there. But just this morning, Judge Charles Breyer ruled the administration cannot deploy U.S. military to carry out law enforcement operations, as this violates the Posse Comitatus Act. Andrew and Mary provide historical context for the act and walk us through the rationale of this latest ruling. Then, they take a beat on moves to oust two more Trump appointed U.S. Attorneys in California and Nevada who have yet to be congressionally approved. And last up, they review several big cases on tariffs, Lisa Cook, and cuts to foreign aid.Further reading:  Here is Judge Thomas T.

The signing of HB 117 by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis marks a significant development in the quest for transparency and justice concerning Jeffrey Epstein's criminal activities. The legislation, effective from July 1, 2024, permits the release of grand jury documents under specific conditions: if the subject of the inquiry is deceased, the investigation involved sexual activity with minors, the testimony was previously disclosed by court order, and the state attorney is notified​ ​In 2006, the Palm Beach Police Department investigated Jeffrey Epstein for his abuse of underage girls. Despite evidence and a strong case for multiple felony charges, the State Attorney's office chose to present the case to a grand jury rather than pursuing direct charges. This decision resulted in sealed grand jury testimonies, protecting the details of Epstein's actions and those involved from public scrutiny​ Governor DeSantis emphasized the necessity of public knowledge regarding Epstein's case, stating that wealth and status should not shield individuals from justice. The release of these documents aims to expose those who participated in or enabled Epstein's criminal activities, addressing the long-standing demands for transparency and accountability​Victims of Epstein's abuse, such as Haley Robson, have voiced their support for the legislation, hoping it will bring closure and justice. Robson, who spoke at the signing ceremony, highlighted the pervasive impact of Epstein's crimes and the lenient punishment he received. The release of these documents is seen as a step towards understanding the full scope of Epstein's network and the systemic failures that allowed his activities to persist​.Legislative DetailsKey Provisions of HB 117:Applicability: The legislation applies to cases where the subject of the grand jury inquiry is deceased, the investigation involved sexual activities with minors, and where prior court orders disclosed some of the testimony​ (FLGov)​.Public Disclosure: The law allows for the public release of grand jury documents, ensuring that the details and individuals involved in Epstein's case are brought to light.Implementation: Upon the law taking effect, petitions for the release of the documents can be filed. Governor DeSantis assured that the process would be expedited to avoid unnecessary delays​ (Court TV)​.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Florida judge calls Epstein the "most infamous pedophile in American history" following transcripts release - CBS Miami (cbsnews.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Second Circuit Court of Appeals' ruling that cleared the way for the release of Jeffrey Epstein's Florida grand jury documents was a landmark moment in the long fight for transparency. The court essentially rejected the government's attempts to keep the lid on crucial records that could shed light on how Epstein's 2006 case was handled and, more importantly, how the infamous 2007 Non-Prosecution Agreement was engineered. By greenlighting their potential release, the judges signaled that the public interest in understanding the inner workings of Epstein's sweetheart deal outweighed the government's habitual reliance on secrecy. It was a rare rebuke to the Department of Justice, which has consistently dragged its feet or outright resisted efforts to expose its complicity in protecting Epstein.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein Docs - DocumentCloud

It's a rare occurrence when a grand jury refuses to indict a case that a prosecutor urges them to indict. Yet Donald Trump's US Attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeanine Pirro, had grand juries tell her N0, they would NOT indict two protestors for assaulting police officers. In fact, those grand juries told here no FOUR TIMES!One of the protestors threw a sandwich at an officer and another reportedly stepped between a scuffle with officers who were trying to detain someone due to the person's immigration status.The grand jury sits as the conscious of the community and evaluates the evidence presented by the prosecutors to determine if there is enough evidence to indict someone on a felony charge.

  Today we are repeating one of our favorite conversations.  Mike spoke with the filmmakers of "Sugarcane" at Sundance 2024.  They would go on to win the Grand Jury award for Directing at that festival, and then would be nominated for the 97th Academy Awards last year.     If you enjoy this conversation, you may want to check out our "Anatomy of a scene from Sugarcane."   Kicking off our on-the-ground coverage of Sundance 2024, Julian Brave Noisecat and Emily Kassie join Mike to discuss their new film, “Sugarcane”.     In this film, they explore the legacy of the St. Joseph Mission, one of many segregated residential schools promulgated by the Canadian government run by the Catholic Church.  The stories they tell are deeply personal (both Julian's grandmother and father attended St. Joseph's) as well illustrative of a wider history of abuse within the schools.  As they explain, they deploy and reshape various filmic conventions–the Western, archival, the travel doc–in innovative ways to do justice to the lives and stories of their subject.  The result is a many-layered testament to survival despite deep, still ongoing pain.   Thanks to Amos Cochran of Edit/Score for hosting our 2024 Sundance interviews.  Edit/Score is a new music library with an innovative approach to finding music for your film.

On Monday, after Kilmar Abrego Garcia was taken into ICE custody, Judge Paula Xinis temporarily barred the Trump administration from deporting him to Uganda. Mary and Andrew begin here, reminding listeners that the origin of his case stems from a mistake made by our government. Next, they detail the questionable nature of the FBI raid on former National Security Advisor John Bolton's home and office before diving into some 30+ letters sent by Attorney General Pam Bondi to blue-leaning jurisdictions, with the aim of ending their sanctuary policies. Last up, Mary and Andrew drill down on Trump's latest executive order related to a rapidly deployable National Guard unit, as he sharpens threats to send troops into more cities.Further reading: Trump's Executive Order: ADDITIONAL MEASURES TO ADDRESS THE CRIME EMERGENCY IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIAGarrett Graff's piece Mary referred to: America Tips Into FascismAnd a reminder: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: On the front of this morning's New York Times, all the way down at the bottom of the page is a little referral box directing the reader to page C2 to read about the news that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey are engaged to be married. If you do a search for Taylor Swift on Google, or at least when I just did one, it sets off a cascade of animated confetti and some kind of floating glyph that kind of looks like the Sacred Heart of Jesus with an animated bubble above it that is shooting off hearts and seems to be saying that something, maybe the animation itself, has 93.64 million likes.

A federal judge calls out the Justice Department for requesting the release of a few dozen pages of Jeffrey Epstein material when it has 100,000 pages of files but won't release them.

The third judge has now denied the Trump administration's request to release Epstein's grand jury documents, and while it's being spun as a setback, the truth is the administration knew this was coming all along. Grand jury materials are sealed by design, and no court was going to break decades of precedent. The request was never about actually getting those documents—it was about making a move that was guaranteed to fail, so the administration could later point to the denial as proof that the system had tied their hands. In other words, the loss was baked into the strategy from the start.Now the denial has become the centerpiece of a carefully scripted narrative. The administration and its allies are out in force, claiming they sought transparency only to be blocked by the courts, painting themselves as victims of a cover-up. But the truth is, if they truly wanted the Epstein files exposed, there were other levers of power they could have pulled. Instead, they opted for a performative stunt designed to fail, knowing the denial would hand them a scapegoat. It's political theater masquerading as justice, and while the spin benefits them, the victims remain forgotten and the truth stays buried.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Judge declines to unseal grand jury material in Jeffrey Epstein case - CBS News

Is Alaska's grand jury still the people's tool for oversight, or has it become another lever of government control? In this episode of the Must Read Alaska Show, host Ben Carpenter presses Attorney General Treg Taylor on the Supreme Court's controversial move to make him the “gatekeeper” for public access to grand juries. Taylor defends new procedures, acknowledges constitutional concerns, and reveals why he intends to be a “poor gatekeeper” in order to restore public trust. Together, Carpenter and Taylor debate the balance between secrecy and transparency, the risk of runaway grand juries versus weaponized complaints, and whether only a constitutional amendment can guarantee Alaskans' right to use the grand jury to root out corruption. This hard-hitting conversation digs into whether the state's justice system protects the people — or itself.

AP correspondent Julie Walker reports a judge denies the Justice Department's request to unseal Jeffrey Epstein grand jury transcripts.

It's been another wild week, after the D.C. Attorney General sued the government for attempting to install the head of the D.E.A. as D.C.'s emergency police commissioner. Following an emergency hearing, US Attorney General Pam Bondi backed down and re-wrote the directive. But Andrew and Mary highlight why that's just the start: it's no longer just the D.C. National Guard being deployed in the nation's capital, National Guard units from five other red states are being sent to the city, making a complicated stew of who's in charge and who has jurisdiction. Next, they weave this thread into last week's trial over whether California's National Guard performed law enforcement operations in Los Angeles, a potential violation of The Posse Comitatus Act. And with Russia and Ukraine so much in the news, Andrew offers some reflections from the 2019 Special Counsel's report that exposes Russia's long-held goal of taking over the Donbas region. And last up, Andrew and Mary fill listeners in on two DC Circuit cases that have their attention: a decision allowing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to be dismantled and another that allows Trump to withhold billions in foreign aid.And a reminder: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

Let's talk about Trump's Epstein grand jury move failing and why....

When “War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength” we are living in an era of alternate facts. Mary and Andrew apply this Orwellian concept to what's happening this week, after President Trump cited section 740 of the Home Rule Act to federalize the DC police force and send in the national guard to the nation's capital. They detail how the president was able to do this and why Congress will be the ultimate arbiter of this move. Then, they highlight some litigation befitting this theme, with Judge Breyer's trial starting this week on the use of the national guard in Los Angeles, and some decisions including not to unseal grand jury testimony in the Ghislaine Maxwell case, plus an Appeals court blocking contempt proceedings in JGG. Last up, Andrew and Mary take a look at Judge Henderson's opinion in the OMB case and why it deserves more attention than it's received. Further reading: Here is President Trump's letter to Congress citing section 740, courtesy of the New York Times.And some exciting news: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

Ouch! Amy and T.J. go beyond the headlines, and after reading through Judge Paul Engelmayer’s 30 page ruling, there is so much more to hear! The judge eviscerates the Trump administration for misleading the public by suggesting there is anything new or incriminating to unseal in the grand jury testimony surrounding Ghislaine Maxwell. He goes so far as to say he ALMOST released the sealed testimony just to expose the farce coming directly from the government.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In breaking news, a federal judge has not only blasted the Trump Administration for misleading the American Public about their failure to release the Epstein Files in their entirety, but has also vindicated the 1000s of sex abuse victims who have been ignored by the Trump Administration, while reminding the public of the heinous and depraved sex abuse crimes Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of to set the record straight. Michael Popok takes a deep dive into Judge Englemayer's brand new order denying Trump's efforts to redefine the “files” as the Grand Jury materials, and preventing their release at the same time.

A federal takeover in D.C. as the President moves to take control of the city's police force, with the plan to send in hundreds of national guard troops to fight crime. A federal judge rejected the government's request to unseal Grand Jury records in the criminal case of Ghislaine Maxwell, writing that the request could be seen as an illusion of transparency instead of actual transparency. Trump tries to manage expectations for his highly-anticipated summit with Putin, as the two leaders are expected to meet in Alaska this Friday to discuss ending the war in Ukraine. Luke Broadwater, Susan Glasser, David Drucker, Barbara McQuade, Bharat Ramamurti, Brendan Greeley, and David Kirkpatrick join The 11th Hour this Monday night.

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – New York Attorney General Letitia “Big Tish” James faces intense scrutiny as a grand jury probes her actions against Donald Trump. Subpoenas link her to alleged mortgage fraud and investigations into the NRA. Critics point to political motives, highlighting contradictions between her sworn statements and accusations she makes against others in high-profile legal battles...

AG Pam Bondi just sawed both legs out from under Trump in a new Federal Court filing: (1) she concedes that there is a “great public interest” in the Epstein Files caused in part by her office's own 2 page “close out” memo from early July; and (2) that there is nothing in the Grand Jury materials that consist of only 2 TOTAL witnesses (both law enforcement not conspirators or victims) that the public hasn't already seen. Michael Popok of Legal AF takes a hard look at the new filing and the judge's order and why this blows up Trump's whole series of ‘denials and attempts to make the Epstein Scandal and his role in it go away.

Accountability or weaponization? That's the question Andrew and Mary tackle in their 150th episode together, starting with the distraction of the Office of the Special Counsel's investigation into Jack Smith for possible Hatch Act violations. In other DOJ related matters, they give some context to the Trump administration's continued battle to keep Alina Habba, a Trump ally, as New Jersey U.S. Attorney, just as The Legal Accountability Center filed bar complaints against lawyers who have represented Trump's White House in court. In another sideshow, Andrew and Mary break down what to make of a report on the “Clinton Plan” emails, declassified amid the Epstein controversy. And last up, they detail the decision out of the 9th Circuit Court which upheld a pause on ICE raids in California.  Further Reading: Here is the piece Andrew and his colleague Ryan Goodman wrote for Just Security in October 2024: Refuting the Latest Baseless Attacks Against Special Counsel Jack SmithHere is the 9th Circuit Court decision on ICE Raids: Appeal from the United States District Court for the Central District of California And some exciting news: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.
