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.com

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.com

Mark Epstein, brother of Jeffrey Epstein, has consistently expressed skepticism regarding the official account of his brother's death. He has questioned the swift conclusion by authorities that Jeffrey's death was a suicide, pointing to initial death certificates listing the cause as "pending" and highlighting irregularities in the investigation. Mark has referenced observations from forensic pathologist Dr. Michael Baden, who noted unusual fractures in Jeffrey's neck more consistent with homicidal strangulation than suicide. These concerns have led Mark to believe that the investigation into his brother's death was insufficient and that the possibility of foul play was prematurely dismissed. Additionally, Mark Epstein has criticized statements from officials, such as then-Attorney General William Barr, who labeled the death a suicide shortly after it occurred. He argues that despite acknowledged lapses in prison protocols and the presence of irregularities, attributing the death solely to bureaucratic failures is inadequate. Mark's persistent doubts have been fueled by the lack of comprehensive answers from the Department of Justice and other authorities, leaving him and the public with unresolved questions about the true circumstances surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's death.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

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. This building has long been rumored to be a place where Jeffrey Epstein and Jean Luc Brunel house trafficked girls, but very little has been disclosed about the inner workings.to contact me:In our second article...Thersa Helm is one of the women who was abused by Jeffrey Epstein. She is also one of the most vocal when it comes to his associates getting away with their alleged crimes. Now, in the wake of the document dump she is once again speaking out.In this episode, we hear from Theresa Helm about the document dump and how this new found interest in Epstein and his horrible crimes could catapult us closer to justice.bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

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)

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.com

We talk about date nights at home, and what we should do about our recent parking tickets.

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-epstein-chronicles--5003294/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-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

​In the days leading up to his death, Jeffrey Epstein exhibited a complex and seemingly contradictory state of mind. Despite facing serious charges and the prospect of a prolonged prison sentence, Epstein reportedly denied having suicidal thoughts and appeared confident about his situation. He described his life as "wonderful" and expressed no intention of self-harm, even while under suicide watch.   So, how did he end up dead?Following Jeffrey Epstein's highly suspicious death in August 2019, Attorney General William Barr became the subject of intense scrutiny, with many alleging he played a role in a cover-up to protect powerful individuals linked to Epstein. As the head of the Justice Department, Barr oversaw the Bureau of Prisons, which was responsible for Epstein's detention at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC). Critics questioned how such a high-profile inmate, who had reportedly been on suicide watch just days prior, was able to die under such dubious circumstances, including the alleged malfunctioning of security cameras and the guards' failure to conduct routine checks. The rapid declaration of suicide as the official cause of death, despite forensic inconsistencies such as Epstein's hyoid bone fracture—a common indicator of strangulation—led to widespread skepticism. Given Barr's history, including his father's connection to Epstein through hiring him at the Dalton School, and his prior role in minimizing scrutiny over elite figures, suspicions grew that his Justice Department deliberately mishandled the investigation to suppress damaging revelations.In response to these allegations, Barr publicly condemned the failures at MCC, calling them a “perfect storm of screw-ups” rather than an orchestrated cover-up. He ordered internal investigations by the FBI and the Justice Department's Inspector General, which ultimately upheld the suicide ruling. However, many found Barr's explanation unconvincing, particularly given his previous role in facilitating leniency for powerful figures in legal matters. His insistence that Epstein's death was a result of incompetence rather than conspiracy did little to quell speculation, especially as key evidence, such as security footage, was either missing or unusable. Some critics pointed to the swift dismissal of the guards involved as a means to close the case without deeper scrutiny. Barr's handling of the case remains a subject of controversy, with many believing that his role was not just oversight but active damage control to protect Epstein's powerful associates from exposure.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Queen Elizabeth II's unwavering loyalty to Prince Andrew became one of the most glaring blind spots of her reign. Even as the Epstein scandal engulfed her son, forcing him out of royal duties and dragging the monarchy into global humiliation, she continued to shield him with public and private support. From quietly allowing him to keep privileges to reportedly helping fund legal settlements, her steadfastness toward Andrew stood in sharp contrast to the measured distance the palace often kept with other family controversies. For many observers, it was a sign of maternal instinct overriding political judgment — the Queen's deep affection for her son blinding her to the damage his behavior inflicted on the Crown's reputation.This loyalty, however, created friction within the family, especially with then-Prince Charles. Charles, ever mindful of the monarchy's survival and public image, saw Andrew as a liability who needed to be sidelined swiftly and decisively. His push for a tougher line clashed with the Queen's reluctance to cast her son adrift, causing a rift between mother and heir. The tension revealed an underlying difference in their approaches to the institution: the Queen led with loyalty to family, while Charles prioritized protecting the Crown at any cost. The fallout from Andrew's disgrace exposed not only Andrew's recklessness but also the strain it placed on the monarchy's leadership during a critical moment of transition.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Sarah Kellen Vickers has long been described as one of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's closest lieutenants, playing a role that survivors say went far beyond that of an assistant. Court testimony and depositions portray her as the gatekeeper at Epstein's Palm Beach home — the person who scheduled appointments, ushered girls in and out, and kept meticulous records of who was coming and going. Several survivors alleged that she not only arranged their encounters but also prepared massage tables, handed out oils, and sometimes participated in abuse herself. This has led many to view her as a key facilitator in Epstein's operation, someone who knew exactly what was happening and actively smoothed the process.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

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.com

​Denise George, a seasoned attorney from the U.S. Virgin Islands, served as the territory's Attorney General from 2019 until her dismissal in December 2022. During her tenure, she was recognized for her unwavering commitment to justice, notably leading significant legal actions against the estate of Jeffrey Epstein.In early 2020, George filed a civil enforcement lawsuit against Epstein's estate under the Virgin Islands' Criminally Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (CICO). This legal action aimed to hold Epstein's estate accountable for alleged criminal activities, including human trafficking and sexual exploitation within the Virgin Islands. Her efforts culminated in a settlement in November 2022, wherein the estate agreed to pay the Virgin Islands over $105 million and half of the proceeds from the sale of Little St. James, Epstein's private island.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson's association with Jeffrey Epstein has been scrutinized due to serious allegations. Virginia Giuffre, an accuser of Epstein, testified that she was directed by Epstein and his associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, to engage in sexual activities with Richardson while she was underage. Richardson's name appeared multiple times in Epstein's flight logs, indicating he traveled on Epstein's private jet. These connections raise concerns about Richardson's involvement with Epstein's illicit activities. Richardson has denied these allegations, stating through a spokesperson that he never met Giuffre and was unaware of any inappropriate conduct by Epstein. Despite these denials, the documented interactions between Richardson and Epstein, including campaign contributions from Epstein to Richardson's political endeavors, cast a shadow over Richardson's judgment and associations. The extent of Richardson's involvement with Epstein remains a subject of public concern, highlighting the need for transparency and accountability among public officials.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

This is the second sermon in the four-week series with Jim Gates.

The Ghislaine Maxwell trial, held in late 2021 in federal court in New York, centered on her alleged role as Jeffrey Epstein's co-conspirator in a sex trafficking ring that preyed on underage girls for over a decade. Prosecutors accused Maxwell of grooming minors, gaining their trust, and then facilitating or participating in their abuse at the hands of Epstein between 1994 and 2004. The government's case included testimony from four women, some of whom described in painful detail how Maxwell recruited them as teenagers under the guise of mentorship or financial assistance, only to manipulate them into sexual encounters with Epstein. Flight logs, photographs, and household staff testimony were used to place Maxwell at various Epstein properties and show her long-standing involvement in his lifestyle and operations.Maxwell's defense team attempted to cast her as a scapegoat, arguing that she was being punished for Epstein's crimes following his 2019 death in federal custody. They challenged the credibility of the accusers, questioned their motives, and pointed to the time gaps between the alleged crimes and the trial. Ultimately, the jury found Maxwell guilty on five of six federal charges, including sex trafficking of a minor, and not guilty on one count of enticing a minor to travel for illegal sex acts. The conviction marked a rare moment of accountability in a case that had long been plagued by cover-ups, prosecutorial failures, and elite protection. It also opened the door to further scrutiny of Epstein's network, although many key figures remain untouched.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

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-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Even from behind bars, Ghislaine Maxwell continues to staunchly defend Prince Andrew, displaying a brazen disregard for the gravity of her own convictions and the overwhelming evidence against her. In a 2022 interview from prison, Maxwell audaciously claimed that the infamous photograph showing Prince Andrew with his arm around Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein's most prominent accusers, is "fake," despite its widespread acceptance as genuine. This blatant attempt to discredit a victim not only undermines the experiences of countless survivors but also highlights Maxwell's unrepentant nature and her willingness to perpetuate falsehoods to protect her powerful associates.Furthermore, Maxwell's expressed sympathy for Prince Andrew, referring to him as a "dear friend" and stating she "feels so bad" for him, is a glaring example of her continued manipulation and deflection. By portraying Andrew as a victim suffering due to his association with her, Maxwell attempts to elicit public sympathy for a man who has been credibly accused of sexual misconduct, thereby minimizing the severity of the allegations against him. This tactic not only insults the intelligence of the public but also serves to retraumatize survivors by elevating the concerns of the accused over the suffering of the victims. Maxwell's unwavering defense of Prince Andrew from her prison cell is a stark reminder of her persistent allegiance to the powerful, even at the expense of justice and truth.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mark Epstein, the brother of Jeffrey Epstein, has been one of the most vocal figures challenging the official narrative surrounding his brother's death. He has repeatedly questioned the circumstances of Jeffrey Epstein's alleged suicide, citing inconsistencies in the official reports and demanding transparency from authorities. Mark has pointed to the fact that his brother's injuries—most notably the hyoid bone fracture—were more consistent with homicide than suicide, according to forensic experts such as Dr. Michael Baden, who was hired by the Epstein family to conduct an independent examination. Additionally, he has expressed frustration over the lack of clear surveillance footage from Epstein's jail cell, the unusual staffing shortages at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) on the night of his death, and the suspicious failure of the guards to check on him at scheduled intervals. To Mark, these irregularities suggest foul play rather than the simple case of suicide the government has put forward.His calls for a deeper investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's death have fueled broader public skepticism, as many believe Epstein's extensive network of powerful associates had every reason to silence him. Mark Epstein has called for the release of all available evidence, including unredacted autopsy reports, prison logs, and surveillance footage, arguing that the truth has been deliberately buried. He has accused the authorities of failing to provide a satisfactory explanation and has demanded a congressional inquiry into what he sees as a cover-up. Despite the official ruling of suicide by the New York City medical examiner, Mark and others continue to push for an independent investigation, arguing that the case was closed too quickly and without sufficient scrutiny. His persistent demands highlight the lingering doubts surrounding Epstein's death, reinforcing the belief that the truth remains hidden behind a wall of political and institutional protection.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/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-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In 2017, Jeffrey Epstein supposedly threatened to expose an extramarital affair between Bill Gates and a Russian bridge player named Mila Antonova in order to force Gates to reimburse Epstein for tuition Epstein had paid for Antonova's software coding school. The source claims that Epstein used this knowledge of the affair as leverage after Gates had declined to join a philanthropic fund Epstein was trying to set up.Gates' representatives have disputed some of the characterization, saying that Gates never had any financial dealings with Epstein in that context, and that the idea of “blackmail” has been framed through accounts from sources familiar with the matter. Gates has publicly said that it was a mistake to associate with Epstein, that he thought Epstein might help with global health philanthropy, and he regrets giving him credibilityto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/idaho-university-murders-live-more-than-one-suspect-may-be-at-large-in-the-slayings-of-four-students/ar-AA14cJKhBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Leslie Groff, a former executive assistant to Jeffrey Epstein, is alleged to have been a central figure in facilitating his criminal enterprise. Groff is accused of managing Epstein's daily operations, including scheduling appointments and arranging travel, some of which allegedly involved underage girls. Survivors of Epstein's abuse have identified Groff as a gatekeeper who ensured Epstein's access to his victims, highlighting her role in maintaining the infrastructure that enabled his predatory behavior. Critics argue that her administrative skills were weaponized to serve Epstein's illicit activities, raising serious concerns about the extent of her complicity in his crimes.Defenders of Groff suggest that she may not have fully understood the scope of Epstein's criminal activities, claiming she operated under a professional facade and followed orders without questioning their implications. However, critics contend that her long-term association with Epstein and her active management of his personal affairs indicate at least a willful ignorance, if not direct knowledge, of his abusive conduct. Groff's role, whether seen as that of an unwitting accomplice or a deliberate enabler, underscores the systemic nature of Epstein's criminal network, where trusted aides played pivotal roles in insulating him from scrutiny and perpetuating his exploitation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
