A lawsuit has been filed by multiple survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse, against the U.S. government and the government of the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI), alleging that officials in both governments enabled and facilitated Epstein's sex-trafficking activities.The suit against the U.S. government, filed in New York, claims that the FBI failed to adequately investigate credible tips about Epstein's activities from 1996 to 2006, allowing him to continue abusing young women and girls. The plaintiffs assert that the FBI's negligence permitted Epstein to operate his sex trafficking ring with impunity, failing to protect victims and prevent further exploitation.Additionally, the lawsuit against the USVI government alleges a wide-ranging conspiracy involving high-ranking officials who are accused of actively aiding Epstein. The plaintiffs claim that from 2001 to 2019, USVI officials provided Epstein with a secure base to run his sex-trafficking operation by offering him special treatment through laws, infrastructure, and governmental support. Named in the suit are former First Lady Cecile de Jongh, former Governor John de Jongh, former Governor Kenneth Mapp, former Senator Celestino White, former Attorney General Vincent Frazer, and others. The complaint includes detailed allegations of financial and political favors exchanged between Epstein and these officials, which allegedly facilitated his criminal activities and obstructed justice​. The government of the United States Virgin Islands (USVI) is attempting to dismiss the lawsuit filed by survivors of Jeffrey Epstein by shifting the blame to the survivors and emphasizing the significant settlement they already received from Epstein's estate. The USVI's defense focuses on two main arguments:Previous Settlement and Compensation: The USVI argues that the survivors have already been compensated through a settlement with Epstein's estate, which totaled more than $100 million. They contend that this previous compensation should mitigate or eliminate further claims against the government.Legal Defenses and Sovereign Immunity: The USVI also asserts that the lawsuit should be dismissed based on sovereign immunity and other legal defenses. They argue that the claims against them are barred by statutes of limitations and that the plaintiffs have not established a valid legal basis for holding the government liable for Epstein's actions.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jane Does' Epstein Complaint Has No Merit, Should Be Dismissed, V.I.

Vanuit het niets werd het Nijmeegse Nexperia deze oktober wereldnieuws. De maker van zeer simpele chips – niet meer waard dan een paar cent per stuk – bleek ineens een cruciale speler te zijn in de mondiale autosector. Autofabrikanten, van Volkswagen en Honda tot Ford, raakten anderhalve maand geleden in paniek toen Nexperia geen chips meer kon leveren. De reden: het bedrijf was van de ene op de andere dag onderwerp geworden van een knetterende ruzie tussen Den Haag en Peking. Hoe de auto-industrie met deze sluimerende crisis omgaat, hoor je van redacteur mobiliteit Hans de Jongh. Lees: Hoe een Nijmeegs chipbedrijf wereldnieuws werd Peking reageerde furieus. Meteen stelde de Chinese regering een verbod in op de export van chips die Nexperia in China laat maken. Dat was geen loos gebaar. In de plaats Dongguang staat met afstand de grootste fabriek van Nexperia. Daar worden ook de chips gemaakt waar de auto-industrie niet zonder kan. Bert van Dijk, die voor het FD de chipsector volgt, vertelt wat deze crisis ons zegt over de afhankelijk van China. Lees: Nexperia-debacle illustreert hoe groot afhankelijkheid van China (nog) is En de paniek beperkte zich niet tot autoproducenten. Toen hun plotseling opgestoken kopzorgen waren doorgedrongen tot de politiek was de opwinding compleet, in Den Haag, maar meer nog in Berlijn, Brussel en Washington. Binnen een week was Nexperia wereldnieuws.

Het nieuwe jaar staat voor de deur. En daarmee ook nieuwe belastingregels. Wat betekenen die voor het nettosalaris? En op welke dingen moet je extra alert zijn? Samen met arbeidsmarktredacteur Lien van der Leij kijken we vooruit naar wat er in het nieuwe jaar anders wordt. De Nederlandsche Bank komt met een alarmerende oproep aan pensioenfondsen: beleg niet té veel in de Magnificent Seven. De grootste techbedrijven ter wereld domineren de groeicijfers op de beurs door de opkomst van AI. Het risico bestaat echter dat AI een zeepbel is. Als pensioenfondsen zich hier te veel aan blootstellen, brengt dat risico’s met zich mee voor de pensioenen. Redacteur-pensioenen Maaike Noordhuis vertelt erover. Een totaalverbod op verbrandingsmotoren voor de Europese auto-industrie is van de baan. Na 2035 mogen fabrikanten nog benzine- en dieselauto’s maken, mits de emissies met 90% dalen en de rest wordt gecompenseerd. Als Europese fabrikanten aan een aantal voorwaarden voldoen, mogen zij na 2035 alsnog een beperkt aantal auto’s met een verbrandingsmotor produceren. Transportredacteur Hans de Jongh vertelt welke voorwaarden dat zijn.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jeffrey Epstein tried to manipulate the laws governing sex-offender oversight and age-of-consent enforcement in the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI) — in a way that would benefit him personally. According to court filings and public reporting, a powerful figure in the territory's government, Cecile de Jongh (then-First Lady of the USVI), allegedly approached Epstein for his approval on draft legislation intended to govern sex-offenders. She purportedly sent him a version of a proposed bill and asked: “Will it work for you?” Epstein then made edits favorable to his freedom of movement and privacy — for example limiting how the law would track or publicize who he stayed with, and how long he was abroad. That proposed legislation never became law; but the attempt itself shows how Epstein used political influence inside the USVI to try to reshape laws in his favor.The broader allegation is that this legal tampering was part of a quid-pro-quo relationship between Epstein and high-ranking officials in the territory, who reportedly accepted his money, tax-breaks, and other favors while looking the other way as Epstein ferried in under-age girls to his private island, Little Saint James. Through that influence over legislation and local governance, Epstein allegedly sought to water down oversight and monitoring — effectively giving him greater freedom to move girls in and out of the territory without drawing attention. This manipulation of the law helped create a permissive environment for his broader sex-trafficking and abuse network in the USVI.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The defense reiterates its position that the Second Amended Complaint (SAC) should be dismissed based on prior arguments made by the defendant and co-defendants.Should the SAC not be dismissed, including for reasons of improper venue, the defense asserts that the case should be transferred to the District of the Virgin Islands (D.V.I.), where it would be more appropriately handled.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.610915.178.0.pdf

In the case Doe 1 et al. v. Government of the United States Virgin Islands et al., No. 1:23-cv-10301-AS, defendant Cecile de Jongh filed a reply in support of her motion to dismiss and/or strike the plaintiffs' First Amended Complaint. In her reply, de Jongh argues that the plaintiffs' allegations are insufficient to establish a legal claim against her. She contends that the complaint lacks specific factual allegations linking her to the alleged misconduct and fails to meet the required legal standards for the claims asserted. De Jongh also asserts that certain portions of the complaint are irrelevant or prejudicial and should be stricken from the record. She requests that the court dismiss the claims against her or, alternatively, strike the specified portions of the complaint.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.610915.160.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Former U.S. Virgin Islands Governor John de Jongh Jr. has filed a memorandum in federal court seeking to dismiss, transfer, or strike the lawsuit brought by five anonymous women identified as Jane Does 1-5, who accuse the Virgin Islands government and several current and former officials of enabling Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking network. De Jongh argues that the Southern District of New York lacks jurisdiction, asserting he has been a resident of the U.S. Virgin Islands for decades and has no substantial ties to New York that would justify the case being heard there. He also claims he was improperly served at a Manhattan address where he says he does not reside or maintain control, insisting the lawsuit should be dismissed or moved to the Virgin Islands, where the alleged conduct occurred.The memorandum further contends that even if the court finds jurisdiction proper, the claims against De Jongh should still be thrown out because they are barred by prior settlement releases signed by Epstein's victims as part of earlier agreements with his estate. He argues that the complaint fails to allege specific wrongful acts committed by him and maintains that any actions connected to Epstein occurred while he was serving in his official capacity, which he says grants him legal immunity. De Jongh also asks the court to strike portions of the complaint as irrelevant and prejudicial, describing them as inflammatory rather than grounded in fact. The filing adds another layer to the expanding legal fight over what government officials knew— and failed to stop—while Epstein operated in the Virgin Islands.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Cecile de Jongh, former First Lady of the U.S. Virgin Islands, admitted in court filings that she stayed at Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan apartment in 2017 while undergoing knee-replacement surgery. According to the reporting, she explained the stay as a matter of convenience because the apartment offered an elevator and close proximity to the hospital. However, the acknowledgment has intensified scrutiny over the long-standing relationship between Epstein and political leadership in the Virgin Islands, raising questions about the nature and depth of the ties between Epstein and the territory's most influential public figures.The stay is part of a broader pattern documented in lawsuits and financial records that show de Jongh maintained an extensive working relationship with Epstein for years, including serving as a key facilitator for his business and political interests in the Virgin Islands while her husband was governor. She has been accused in court filings of acting as a conduit for Epstein's influence over legislation, helping secure visas for young women associated with him, and requesting tuition support for her children. These details further fuel allegations that Virgin Islands officials not only tolerated Epstein's presence but actively helped maintain the conditions that allowed him to operate unchecked for decades.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

On today's episode, it's a special crossover where I sat down with Ian de Jongh on his podcast, Bite-Sized Dental Marketing. We had a wide-ranging conversation on burnout, business ownership, team building, and what it really takes to thrive in today's version of dentistry. I shared how a traumatic baseball injury shifted my path toward dentistry, and how entrepreneurship became a core part of that journey.   We covered why burnout is so common in the profession, how dentists often create businesses that become prisons, and why systemization and extreme ownership are non-negotiables for long-term success. From staffing shortages to private equity trends, this episode hits on the real challenges—and opportunities—facing dentists right now.

Jeffrey Epstein was able to secure political cover in the U.S. Virgin Islands through a combination of money, influence, and strategic alliances with elected officials. Court filings and investigative reports show that he funneled donations to politicians like Delegate Stacey Plaskett and leveraged his relationship with Cecile de Jongh, the former First Lady of the USVI, to shape local politics and policy in his favor. Epstein even enlisted de Jongh to help him track which politicians to support, while he quietly pushed for changes to sex-offender monitoring laws that would make it easier for him to move young women in and out of the territory. Despite his conviction, he continued to receive lucrative tax incentives and regulatory leniency, illustrating how deeply entrenched his influence was across the island's power structure.The cover extended beyond donations into active suppression of accountability. Former Attorney General Denise George secured a $105 million settlement from Epstein's estate and sued JPMorgan Chase for enabling his trafficking network, only to be abruptly fired shortly after filing the lawsuit. That firing, combined with legal dismissals in lawsuits alleging government complicity, reinforced suspicions that the USVI's political establishment protected Epstein for years.

Jeffrey Epstein was able to secure political cover in the U.S. Virgin Islands through a combination of money, influence, and strategic alliances with elected officials. Court filings and investigative reports show that he funneled donations to politicians like Delegate Stacey Plaskett and leveraged his relationship with Cecile de Jongh, the former First Lady of the USVI, to shape local politics and policy in his favor. Epstein even enlisted de Jongh to help him track which politicians to support, while he quietly pushed for changes to sex-offender monitoring laws that would make it easier for him to move young women in and out of the territory. Despite his conviction, he continued to receive lucrative tax incentives and regulatory leniency, illustrating how deeply entrenched his influence was across the island's power structure.The cover extended beyond donations into active suppression of accountability. Former Attorney General Denise George secured a $105 million settlement from Epstein's estate and sued JPMorgan Chase for enabling his trafficking network, only to be abruptly fired shortly after filing the lawsuit. That firing, combined with legal dismissals in lawsuits alleging government complicity, reinforced suspicions that the USVI's political establishment protected Epstein for years. While Epstein used the islands as his base of operations, the government that should have policed him instead appeared to enable him, providing the façade of legitimacy that allowed his crimes to continue unchecked.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

JP Morgan has responded to the U.S. Virgin Islands' (USVI) motion to strike several of its affirmative defenses in the ongoing lawsuit related to Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking operations. The bank argues that these defenses are crucial to demonstrate the alleged complicity of the USVI government in enabling Epstein's activities.JP Morgan contends that high-ranking USVI officials, including former First Lady Cecile de Jongh, played a role in facilitating Epstein's operations by managing his local companies and helping spread his influence throughout the government. The bank alleges that Epstein's ties with local political figures allowed him to receive favorable treatment, such as tax benefits and reduced oversight, despite his known criminal background/The USVI's motion to strike these defenses is viewed by JP Morgan as an attempt to avoid exposing the government's own culpability. Conversely, the USVI argues that the bank's defenses are baseless and are intended to deflect from its failure to act on clear signs of Epstein's criminal behavior​.(commercial at 7:20)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.610915.94.5.pdf (courtlistener.com)

In 2011, court filings from JPMorgan revealed that Jeffrey Epstein—already a registered sex offender—paid a $25,000 tuition bill at Skidmore College for one of Cecile de Jongh's children, upon her direct request via email subject‑lined “Please approve.” This was no act of charity; this was influence-peddling in plain sight. At the same time, de Jongh was coordinating policy to benefit Epstein, soliciting his input on softening a sex‑offender law to allow him freer movement within the territory. By drawing up legislation that Epstein could personally exploit while cashing in on his largesse, de Jongh blurred the line between public service and private profiteering.Moreover, the tuition payment fits into a broader pattern of de Jongh being Epstein's political and logistical conduit in the U.S. Virgin Islands. JPMorgan labeled her as his “primary conduit for spreading money and influence” within the territory, citing other ways she facilitated his trafficking network—from arranging visas to crafting cover‑class schemes.^1 The tuition bill is far less an isolated favor and far more an emblem of how Epstein weaponized connections with public officials to shield his abuse.

Shamefully, newly uncovered emails show that Cecile de Jongh—former First Lady of the US Virgin Islands—invited convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to weigh in on updates to the territory's sex offender registration laws. “This is the suggested language; will it work for you?” she reportedly wrote to Epstein in 2011, effectively soliciting his input on legislation meant to keep predators in check. Epstein responded with self-serving suggestions—like adding lenient residency exemptions—to protect his own freedom of movement. It's not just a grotesque incompetence—it reads like willful subversion from someone supposed to protect the public.Even more vile: de Jongh didn't merely dialogue with Epstein over legislature; she allegedly helped arrange visas and tailored ESL classes for young women linked to him, enabling his trafficking network. These revelations aren't isolated lapses—they reveal a deeply compromised system where powerful officials invited a predator into the law‑making process, trading public safety for personal access.

Kea Nonyana from Scope Prime breaks down the surprise in US Q2 GDP growth and unpacks what the Sarb MPC might do next in response to shifting global and local conditions. John Reade from the World Gold Council explains how central banks are cooling on the US dollar, while gold demand remains strong despite ongoing supply constraints. Brendan de Jongh from PortfolioMetrix emphasises the importance of filtering through the flood of financial news.

Cecile de Jongh, the former First Lady of the U.S. Virgin Islands and wife of ex-governor John de Jongh Jr., has faced serious allegations regarding her long-standing relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. According to court filings, she served as Epstein's office manager for nearly two decades and acted as his primary intermediary with local government officials and regulators. She allegedly helped secure favorable treatment for Epstein, including influencing legislation related to sex offender monitoring in ways that appeared tailored to benefit him. Internal emails reveal she worked directly with Epstein on proposed changes to Virgin Islands sex offender laws and personally asked for waivers on his behalf to avoid compliance requirements.Additionally, de Jongh is accused of facilitating educational opportunities for young women linked to Epstein, helping them obtain student visas and university placements in the territory. She also reportedly accepted financial benefits from Epstein, including tuition payments for her children and coverage of other personal expenses. These allegations form part of a broader picture painted by lawsuits and investigations suggesting that Epstein maintained a powerful and protected presence in the Virgin Islands, not just through financial institutions like JPMorgan, but through embedded local relationships with figures like de Jongh who allegedly helped shield him from scrutiny and legal accountability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Cecile de Jongh Files Motion to Dismiss N.Y.
