For years, the Epstein story has been defined as much by the people who never seem to face meaningful scrutiny as by the two people who actually went to prison. That is why Thomas Massie's decision to name fourteen alleged Epstein co-conspirators on the floor of Congress matters. The list includes Jes Staley, Leon Black, Les Wexner, David Copperfield, Thomas Pritzker, Glenn Dubin, Jean-Luc Brunel, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Lesley Groff and several figures tied to the modeling industry, all of whom intersect with Epstein through money, banking, social access, scheduling, introductions, testimony or allegations. Staley's extensive relationship with Epstein, Black's massive payments for financial advice, Wexner's extraordinary decision to place sweeping financial authority in Epstein's hands, and Groff's years spent managing Epstein's daily affairs all continue to raise questions about how much the people around him knew and why so many of those questions remain unresolved. Other names, including Copperfield, Pritzker, Dubin and Andrew, surface in testimony, investigative records or allegations that have kept pressure on authorities to explain what was investigated and what was not.What emerges is a pattern that has become impossible to ignore: highly sophisticated people repeatedly claim they saw very little, knew very little and understood even less while continuing to do business with Epstein, socialize with him or allegedly help bring women into his orbit. Those explanations become even harder to stomach after Epstein's 2008 conviction, when his status as a sex offender was public and any continued relationship with him became a conscious choice. Massie's list now puts fresh pressure on the Justice Department to stop treating these names like background noise and start confronting the money, communications, travel, introductions and testimony connected to each of them.

Thomas Massie Accuses Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor of Sex Crimes in the United States (9/3/26)

Rep. Thomas Massie used a speech on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives to accuse Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor of committing sex crimes in the United States and to argue that he should be investigated and, if warranted, prosecuted. Massie named Andrew while calling out a broader group of people he described as alleged co-conspirators or participants in Jeffrey Epstein's network, saying the Justice Department had failed to deliver meaningful accountability. He tied his remarks to the continued fight over millions of Epstein-related records that remain unreleased and said exposing more of that material could help survivors and force federal authorities to act. Massie's remarks were especially pointed because he made them under congressional privilege, allowing him to state the accusation from the House floor while pressing the DOJ to pursue the underlying allegations rather than leave them buried in civil litigation and document dumps.The allegation centered on claims long made by Virginia Giuffre, who said Epstein trafficked her to Andrew for sex on multiple occasions when she was 17, including at Epstein's Manhattan townhouse and on Little Saint James in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Andrew has repeatedly denied sexually abusing Giuffre and denied wrongdoing, and he settled her civil lawsuit in 2022 without admitting liability. What made Massie's speech significant was that a sitting member of Congress was no longer treating Andrew merely as an embarrassing Epstein associate; he was publicly framing him as someone who should face direct criminal scrutiny in the United States. Massie also used the moment to argue that the government's handling of the Epstein files remains incomplete, saying millions of documents are still being withheld and suggesting that naming powerful figures publicly may be one of the only ways to pressure the Justice Department into taking further action.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is accused of 'committing sex crimes in the US' by congressman | Daily Mail Online

Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, reportedly visited Jeffrey Epstein twice in 2009 while he was serving his Florida jail sentence for soliciting a minor for prostitution. The visits allegedly took place at the Palm Beach office Epstein used during his controversial work-release arrangement, which allowed him to leave jail for hours each day. Emails released by the Justice Department and reported by The Telegraph described Ferguson contacting Epstein during a Florida layover and arranging to meet him, including references to his driver picking her up and her bringing charity-related documents. The office was tied to the Florida Science Foundation, a company Epstein used as the basis for his work-release setup.The emails also showed Ferguson writing warmly to Epstein, calling him a “dear spectacular and special friend,” thanking him for looking after her, and continuing to discuss contact and assistance from him despite his conviction. The revelations added to earlier scrutiny over Epstein helping Ferguson financially, including the previously reported £15,000 payment she later called a “gigantic error of judgment.” The damaging part is the timing: Epstein was not merely a disgraced financier at that point, he was actively serving a sentence connected to a minor, yet Ferguson still allegedly met with him through a work-release loophole that has since become one of the most notorious examples of how Epstein received special treatment.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Sarah Ferguson visited Epstein TWICE at office for a bogus firm he set up while he was serving prison sentence for child sex offence | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Epstein Survivors Urge Leon Black to Fully Cooperate With Congress (9/3/26)

More than a dozen survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell publicly urged billionaire Leon Black to fully cooperate with the House Oversight Committee as lawmakers prepared to question him about his relationship with Epstein. In a letter released ahead of Black's scheduled deposition, the survivors called on him not only to appear, but also to comply with congressional subpoenas demanding records, including nondisclosure agreements in his possession. Black paid Epstein tens of millions of dollars for what he has described as tax and estate-planning services, and that enormous financial relationship has made him one of the most important figures in Congress's renewed investigation. The survivors argued that Black's use of NDAs deserved particular scrutiny because those agreements could help clarify the nature of his dealings with Epstein and others in Epstein's orbit.The pressure on Black was already escalating on Capitol Hill. House Oversight Chairman James Comer had threatened to hold him in contempt if he failed to cooperate, while Black had previously denied knowing about Epstein's broader criminal conduct until the 2019 sex-trafficking charges, despite acknowledging that he knew Epstein had pleaded guilty in 2008 to charges involving a minor. Rep. Thomas Massie also named Black from the House floor while calling for the Justice Department to investigate Epstein associates more aggressively. The survivors' message was therefore straightforward: Black's immense financial dealings with Epstein, his possession of potentially relevant agreements and his acknowledged knowledge of Epstein's 2008 conviction make full transparency necessary. They warned that if Black continued withholding records or resisted the committee's demands, Congress should use every enforcement tool available to compel his cooperation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein survivors urge billionaire Leon Black to cooperate with House panel | Jeffrey Epstein | The GuardianBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Rep. Thomas Massie escalated his push for accountability in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal by naming 14 people on the House floor whom he described as Epstein “co-conspirators” who should be investigated and potentially prosecuted. The names included Jes Staley, Leon Black, Les Wexner, David Copperfield, Lapo Elkann, Tom Pritzker, Glenn Dubin, Frédéric Fekkai, Edoardo Teodorani, Jean-Luc Brunel, Daniel Siad, Ramsey Elkholy, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, and Lesley Groff. Massie's statements were allegations made in Congress, not criminal findings, and several of those named have never been charged with crimes connected to Epstein. Still, his speech placed renewed focus on the wider network of wealthy businessmen, financiers, employees, social figures and associates who surrounded Epstein, and on the question of whether federal authorities adequately investigated everyone who may have played a role in his operation.At the same time, Massie launched a discharge petition aimed at forcing a House vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act II, legislation designed to strengthen the disclosure requirements Congress imposed in 2025. The proposal would give Epstein survivors, state and local prosecutors and members of Congress greater power to obtain unredacted federal records and sue the attorney general when they believe documents have been improperly withheld, concealed, delayed or redacted. Members of Congress would be entitled to request complete records, while victims could seek files concerning themselves and prosecutors could obtain information necessary for ongoing criminal investigations. Massie and other supporters maintain that the Justice Department continues to withhold millions of pages or maintain unjustified redactions despite the original transparency law, while DOJ insists it complied after releasing roughly 3.5 million pages along with thousands of videos and images. Massie now needs 218 House signatures on the discharge petition to bypass leadership and force the legislation onto the floor for a vote.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Thomas Massie Names 14 People as Epstein ‘Co-Conspirators,' Moves to Force House Vote | Law Commentary

Pam Bondi effectively placed responsibility for the Justice Department's troubled handling of the Epstein files on Todd Blanche when she testified before House investigators in May 2026. Bondi said she did not personally conduct the document review and repeatedly emphasized that Blanche had been “in charge of the process and the entire release of the Epstein files.” She acknowledged that redaction errors occurred, including failures involving sensitive survivor information, while distancing herself from the mechanics of how the review and release were carried out. Democratic lawmakers came away from the questioning saying Bondi was clearly pointing to Blanche as the official responsible for the mistakes, although Bondi later pushed back publicly and insisted she was not trying to blame him. Even so, the transcript showed her drawing a clear line between her own role and Blanche's, praising him personally while simultaneously identifying him as the person who managed the process that produced the botched redactions, incomplete disclosures and broader controversy surrounding the release.Epstein survivors have been even more direct in blaming Blanche. After meeting with him in July 2026, more than two dozen accusers urged senators not to confirm him as attorney general, describing the meeting as an exercise in deflection and saying he showed no remorse for a release process that exposed survivors' names, identifying information and deeply personal material while other names remained redacted. Annie Farmer called Blanche abrasive, condescending and intentionally noncommittal, while other survivors said the meeting felt like a box-checking exercise arranged only because his confirmation was in jeopardy. They also criticized his handling of Ghislaine Maxwell, his apparent reluctance to pursue additional investigative leads and what they saw as a broader failure to center survivors in decisions about the Epstein records. Taken together, Bondi's testimony and the survivors' statements put Blanche at the center of the Epstein-files fiasco from two very different directions: his former boss identified him as the official overseeing the release, while the people most directly harmed by Epstein accused him of mishandling that responsibility and then failing to meaningfully answer for it.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Jane Doe 1 asked a federal court to allow her to remain anonymous while pursuing a lawsuit tied to Jeffrey Epstein, arguing that forcing her identity into the public record would expose her to exactly the kind of harm the case was meant to address. Her lawsuit alleged that personally identifying information connected to Epstein survivors was improperly disclosed in recent Justice Department releases, and she said that exposure had already led to anonymous calls, threats to her safety, damage to her professional reputation and renewed emotional trauma. In seeking to proceed under a pseudonym, Jane Doe 1 argued that the highly sensitive nature of the allegations, combined with the risks attached to being publicly identified as an Epstein survivor, outweighed the usual presumption that civil litigants should appear under their real names.The court agreed, finding that Jane Doe 1 had demonstrated a reasonable fear of serious harm if her identity were publicly disclosed. The judge noted that cases involving sexual assault and abuse could justify anonymity when disclosure risked additional trauma, embarrassment or threats, and concluded that those concerns outweighed any immediate prejudice to the defendants. Jane Doe 1 was therefore permitted to continue litigating under a pseudonym for the time being, although the defendants could later ask the court to reconsider if they showed that her anonymity unfairly interfered with their ability to defend the case. The ruling gave her a measure of protection while the lawsuit moved forward and underscored the continuing fight over survivor privacy in the latest wave of Epstein-related litigation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

For years, the Epstein story has been defined as much by the people who never seem to face meaningful scrutiny as by the two people who actually went to prison. That is why Thomas Massie's decision to name fourteen alleged Epstein co-conspirators on the floor of Congress matters. The list includes Jes Staley, Leon Black, Les Wexner, David Copperfield, Thomas Pritzker, Glenn Dubin, Jean-Luc Brunel, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Lesley Groff and several figures tied to the modeling industry, all of whom intersect with Epstein through money, banking, social access, scheduling, introductions, testimony or allegations. Staley's extensive relationship with Epstein, Black's massive payments for financial advice, Wexner's extraordinary decision to place sweeping financial authority in Epstein's hands, and Groff's years spent managing Epstein's daily affairs all continue to raise questions about how much the people around him knew and why so many of those questions remain unresolved. Other names, including Copperfield, Pritzker, Dubin and Andrew, surface in testimony, investigative records or allegations that have kept pressure on authorities to explain what was investigated and what was not.What emerges is a pattern that has become impossible to ignore: highly sophisticated people repeatedly claim they saw very little, knew very little and understood even less while continuing to do business with Epstein, socialize with him or allegedly help bring women into his orbit. Those explanations become even harder to stomach after Epstein's 2008 conviction, when his status as a sex offender was public and any continued relationship with him became a conscious choice. Massie's list now puts fresh pressure on the Justice Department to stop treating these names like background noise and start confronting the money, communications, travel, introductions and testimony connected to each of them.

Grisham (24-0471): U.S. District Court Strikes Down New Mexico's 7-Day Firearm Waiting Period A federal court last week granted final judgment holding New Mexico's week-long mandatory firearm waiting period law unconstitutional. On August 31, 2026, U.S. District Judge James Browning issued final judgment in Ortega v. Grisham, declaring New Mexico's 7-day mandatory waiting period on firearm purchases unconstitutional under the Second Amendment. The ruling follows an August 2025 Tenth Circuit decision that found the post-background-check delay an impermissible burden on the right to keep and bear arms; the state's appeal was denied. The law, enacted in 2024 by the Democrat-controlled legislature at the request of Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham (D), was challenged by the NRA, Mountain States Legal Foundation, and National Shooting Sports Foundation. The Gist: The decision applies statewide to all firearm purchases in New Mexico, eliminating the 7-day waiting period that had been required after a background check cleared. Impact: The ruling reinforces post-Bruen Second Amendment scrutiny by invalidating a state law that delayed exercise of a constitutional right for law-abiding citizens, setting precedent within the Tenth Circuit against similar cooling-off periods. Bottom Line: New Mexico's 7-day firearm waiting period is no longer in effect; the court held that “a right delayed is a right denied.” "Major Incident" at ATF: Did Russian Hackers Just Get The Registry? – Legally Armed America YouTubeVideo | "Major Incident" at ATF A Russian-linked ransomware group called Qilin just listed the ATF on its dark-web leak site, prompting the Justice Department to formally designate the incident as a statutory "major incident" and notify Congress.

Mega Edition: Jeffrey Epstein, Larry Nassar And Their Unexplained Connection (8/31/26)

There was an eerie institutional parallel between Jeffrey Epstein and Larry Nassar even though the two men operated in completely different worlds. Both were serial sexual predators whose abuse continued after authorities and powerful institutions had received credible warnings, and in both cases the FBI became a central part of the eventual accountability story. In Nassar's case, the Justice Department inspector general found that FBI officials failed to respond to abuse allegations with the urgency required, made fundamental investigative errors and failed to alert other authorities, allowing Nassar to remain a threat for months afterward. Epstein survivors later made strikingly similar allegations, arguing that federal authorities had received information about Epstein's conduct, failed to adequately investigate or stop him, and thereby allowed additional women and girls to be harmed. The oddest symbolic connection came when a purported letter from Epstein to Nassar surfaced in a government Epstein-file release, only for the Justice Department to later say the letter was fake, an episode that further blurred two already notorious stories about institutional failure.The survivors' lawsuits followed remarkably similar logic. Nassar survivors argued that the FBI had a duty to respond once it learned what he was doing, failed to do so competently and should therefore be held responsible for the abuse that occurred after those failures. The Justice Department ultimately agreed to pay $138.7 million to resolve 139 claims arising from the FBI's handling of the Nassar allegations. Epstein survivors have pursued the same basic theory against the federal government: that agents received warnings and information about Epstein, failed to act adequately, and left victims exposed to a predator who continued operating for years. In both cases, the lawsuits shifted attention away from the perpetrators alone and toward the institutions that had opportunities to intervene but allegedly failed to use them. That is what makes the comparison so powerful: Nassar and Epstein were different predators in different environments, but their survivors ended up asking essentially the same question of the FBIto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Thomas Massie Names 14 Epstein Co-Conspirators on the House Floor (9/1/26)

Rep. Thomas Massie escalated his push for accountability in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal by naming 14 people on the House floor whom he described as Epstein “co-conspirators” who should be investigated and potentially prosecuted. The names included Jes Staley, Leon Black, Les Wexner, David Copperfield, Lapo Elkann, Tom Pritzker, Glenn Dubin, Frédéric Fekkai, Edoardo Teodorani, Jean-Luc Brunel, Daniel Siad, Ramsey Elkholy, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, and Lesley Groff. Massie's statements were allegations made in Congress, not criminal findings, and several of those named have never been charged with crimes connected to Epstein. Still, his speech placed renewed focus on the wider network of wealthy businessmen, financiers, employees, social figures and associates who surrounded Epstein, and on the question of whether federal authorities adequately investigated everyone who may have played a role in his operation.At the same time, Massie launched a discharge petition aimed at forcing a House vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act II, legislation designed to strengthen the disclosure requirements Congress imposed in 2025. The proposal would give Epstein survivors, state and local prosecutors and members of Congress greater power to obtain unredacted federal records and sue the attorney general when they believe documents have been improperly withheld, concealed, delayed or redacted. Members of Congress would be entitled to request complete records, while victims could seek files concerning themselves and prosecutors could obtain information necessary for ongoing criminal investigations. Massie and other supporters maintain that the Justice Department continues to withhold millions of pages or maintain unjustified redactions despite the original transparency law, while DOJ insists it complied after releasing roughly 3.5 million pages along with thousands of videos and images. Massie now needs 218 House signatures on the discharge petition to bypass leadership and force the legislation onto the floor for a vote.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Thomas Massie Names 14 People as Epstein ‘Co-Conspirators,' Moves to Force House Vote | Law CommentaryBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Jeffrey Epstein And The Biggest Sham In American Law Enforcement History (8/31/26)

Jeffrey Epstein's 2007 non-prosecution agreement remains one of the most consequential documents in the entire scandal because, despite years of litigation attacking the way it was negotiated, it was never formally rescinded. In 2019, a federal judge found that prosecutors in South Florida violated the Crime Victims' Rights Act by secretly negotiating the agreement with Epstein's lawyers without first conferring with his victims and by later misleading victims into believing the federal investigation was still active. The survivors sought extraordinary relief, including rescission of the NPA, but Epstein's death in August 2019 fundamentally changed the posture of the case. The district court ultimately declined to void the agreement, and the survivors' broader effort to obtain relief under the CVRA was later rejected on appeal. The Justice Department itself eventually concluded that Alex Acosta exercised poor judgment in resolving the investigation through the NPA, but it did not declare the agreement invalid. The result is a deeply unusual legal reality: a deal negotiated in secrecy, found to have been handled in violation of victims' rights, and condemned even within the Justice Department still remains part of the legal record rather than having been formally erased.That reality has become even harder to reconcile with newly surfaced evidence showing that federal prosecutors themselves documented repeated breaches of the agreement by Epstein. A June 2009 letter from then-acting U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Sloman described several violations and referenced five separate warnings, including Epstein's failure to meet plea deadlines, interference with victim notification, resistance to efforts to identify additional victims, and false or threatening representations involving his work-release eligibility. The NPA expressly provided that a breach of even one condition allowed the United States to terminate the deal and prosecute Epstein and potentially others covered by its protections. Yet prosecutors never exercised that option. Epstein continued enjoying the central benefit of the bargain, immunity from federal prosecution in South Florida, while the government acknowledged internally that it was not receiving the finality, cooperation and other benefits it expected. So even after victims challenged the agreement, a judge found their rights had been violated, the Justice Department criticized how the deal was handled, and prosecutors' own records showed Epstein repeatedly breached it, the NPA was never formally voided. That is precisely why it remains such a powerful symbol of the extraordinary latitude Epstein received from the federal justice system.to ocntact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Pam Bondi effectively placed responsibility for the Justice Department's troubled handling of the Epstein files on Todd Blanche when she testified before House investigators in May 2026. Bondi said she did not personally conduct the document review and repeatedly emphasized that Blanche had been “in charge of the process and the entire release of the Epstein files.” She acknowledged that redaction errors occurred, including failures involving sensitive survivor information, while distancing herself from the mechanics of how the review and release were carried out. Democratic lawmakers came away from the questioning saying Bondi was clearly pointing to Blanche as the official responsible for the mistakes, although Bondi later pushed back publicly and insisted she was not trying to blame him. Even so, the transcript showed her drawing a clear line between her own role and Blanche's, praising him personally while simultaneously identifying him as the person who managed the process that produced the botched redactions, incomplete disclosures and broader controversy surrounding the release.Epstein survivors have been even more direct in blaming Blanche. After meeting with him in July 2026, more than two dozen accusers urged senators not to confirm him as attorney general, describing the meeting as an exercise in deflection and saying he showed no remorse for a release process that exposed survivors' names, identifying information and deeply personal material while other names remained redacted. Annie Farmer called Blanche abrasive, condescending and intentionally noncommittal, while other survivors said the meeting felt like a box-checking exercise arranged only because his confirmation was in jeopardy. They also criticized his handling of Ghislaine Maxwell, his apparent reluctance to pursue additional investigative leads and what they saw as a broader failure to center survivors in decisions about the Epstein records. Taken together, Bondi's testimony and the survivors' statements put Blanche at the center of the Epstein-files fiasco from two very different directions: his former boss identified him as the official overseeing the release, while the people most directly harmed by Epstein accused him of mishandling that responsibility and then failing to meaningfully answer for it.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: If Systemic Breakdown Was Responsible For Epstein's Death, Where Are Reforms? (8/31/26)

The Justice Department's explanation for Jeffrey Epstein's death rests on the claim that a sweeping systemic breakdown occurred inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center: guards failed to conduct required rounds, records were falsified, Epstein was left without a cellmate, staffing was inadequate, supervision failed, and surveillance systems were defective. Yet if those failures were truly broad enough to explain how one of the most consequential federal detainees in modern history died behind bars, they should have triggered an equally broad response. Instead, there was no unmistakable national overhaul of federal detention practices, no transparent accounting of responsibility up the chain of command, no comprehensive public proof that staffing, suicide-prevention, surveillance, and supervisory failures were permanently corrected, and few consequences proportional to the scale of the disaster...That absence of reform does not by itself prove Epstein was murdered, but it badly weakens the government's credibility. The DOJ cannot use chronic understaffing, ignored procedures, malfunctioning equipment, and falsified records to explain his death while allowing many of those same problems to persist years later. “Systemic breakdown” has become a convenient way to spread blame so widely that almost no one is held meaningfully responsible. The government acknowledged enough institutional failure to defend its conclusion, but not enough to force the institution to change. Until there is full transparency, measurable reform, and serious accountability, the official explanation will continue to look less like a resolved case and more like a demand that the public simply trust the same system that failed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

A woman identified in the Epstein files as Jane Doe 4 is reportedly “staying off the grid” and living in fear of retaliation from the Trump administration, according to a relative who spoke to The Guardian. Jane Doe 4 gave four FBI interviews in 2019 after Epstein's arrest, alleging that Epstein abused her in the 1980s and that Donald Trump sexually assaulted her when she was between 13 and 15 years old. Trump and the White House have denied the allegations, calling them “completely baseless” and unsupported by credible evidence. The FBI did not bring charges tied to Jane Doe 4's claims, and there is no indication the bureau continued investigating after her 2019 interviews, which ended after she told agents she believed she was being followed.The handling of Jane Doe 4's files has become a flashpoint in the fight over the Epstein records because the Justice Department released some records but still has not produced handwritten FBI interview notes from her sessions. A federal judge ordered acting Attorney General Todd Blanche to produce unredacted versions of already released Epstein files by July 2 or explain why they cannot be released, and also ordered the DOJ to turn over interview notes related to Jane Doe 4's allegations. The controversy has intensified because Blanche, Trump's former personal attorney and nominee for permanent attorney general, oversaw the DOJ's Epstein files release, which critics say exposed victim information, withheld millions of documents, and mishandled politically sensitive material. Victims' advocates argue Jane Doe 4 should not have to keep coming forward and that the DOJ should be responsible for taking her FBI testimony seriously and releasing the records required under the Epstein transparency law.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Alleged Epstein victim and Trump accuser living in fear of retaliation, relative says | Jeffrey Epstein | The GuardianBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
