In 2016, attorneys representing Epstein's survivors brought what they described as extensive documentation and testimony to the Southern District of New York. They met with Amanda Kramer, then the top human trafficking prosecutor, and laid out evidence of a trafficking network that extended beyond what had been handled in Florida. Lawyers such as David Boies argued that the evidence clearly showed Epstein's continued criminal conduct and Maxwell's role, urging SDNY to act decisively. Survivors also lent their voices, recounting their experiences in hopes of finally seeing a meaningful federal investigation in New York.Despite these efforts, SDNY declined to pursue charges. Prosecutors reportedly reasoned that much of the material overlapped with what had already been covered by Epstein's controversial 2007 Florida non-prosecution agreement. Others inside the office were wary of reopening a case that had been deemed “resolved,” citing concerns about jurisdictional conflicts and political complications. Survivors and their attorneys left the meeting frustrated, believing the federal government had once again turned its back on credible evidence and missed an opportunity to intervene years before Epstein's 2019 arrest.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comSource:https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/ny-jeffrey-epstein-maxwell-case-20201013-jmzhl7zdrzdgrbbs7yc6bfnszu-story.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

More reports to follow: @InnerCityPressAmid Press Freedom Claims by UN and AI Inner City Press Bid to Enter Is Litmus Testby Matthew Russell LeeUN GATE, Sept 15 – On World Press Freedom Day, the United Nations of Antonio Guterres claimed to be in support of journalists being able to do their work without hinderance. Amnesty International makes just such claims, see below. UN Global Communications chief Melissa Fleming put out a video of Guterres equating what he (and she) characterize as disinformation as the threat to press freedom, Guterres has banned Inner City Press from entering the UN since 2018, when it exposed the omission of links to bribery firm CEFC China Energy from his financial disclosure. On June 19, 2025, Inner City Press submitted an application to cover the UN General Assembly, letter here. Law firm Quinn Emanuel, on a pro bono basis, wrote to Fleming and the UN Correspondents Association (with state media of China on its board of directors) seeking a dialogue to reinstate Inner City Press. Later, so did the pro bono law firm of Duane Morris.There has been no answer to an appeal to Guterres head of security Gilles Michaud. Nor has Amnesty International, to whose UN Office Inner City Press has repeatedly raised this glaring violation, done anything. Instead, on September 15, AI bragged that its Agnes Callamard will be at the UNGA, ready for interviews. Right. Inner City Press before being banned reported on her, here and here and here - and will again. This is a litmus test all around.But now, with Inner City Press' UN and SDNY covering, including the Sean Combs trial, being picked up all over the world, the application.

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

Last week saw the reemergence of Donald Trump as he pushed the Big Lie from Mar A Lago and the GOP leadership forced its members to get in line or get out of the way. Liz Cheney tried to push back but found herself in the crosshairs of Kevin McCarthy who instead of moving on from the election has made it the central theme of the GOP. Meanwhile, the SDNY has found itself with a treasure trove of dirt inside Rudy Giuliani's hard drive. Could their appointing of a so called, “Special Master,” to sort through files be a sign that they're getting ready to flip Trump's other former lawyer? Finally, MSNBC's Jonathan Capehart joins Mea Culpa to discuss the GOP's sidelining of Liz Cheney, what happened to Tim Scott and so much more.    To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to BanklessTV, featuring Peter Van Valkenburgh from Coin Center and David Morris of The Rage, freshly back from the SDNY courtroom with the inside scoop on the Roman Storm verdict. In this episode we unpack the split decision—how Storm beat the money-laundering and sanctions-evasion counts yet was found guilty on the hot-button “unlicensed money-transmission” charge—and what that single conviction means for every non-custodial developer in crypto. Peter breaks down the legal tightrope between FinCEN guidance and DOJ prosecution, outlines three clear appeal paths (including the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act), and explains why Roman's case could still become a rallying point for financial-privacy legislation. David shares firsthand color from the trial: jury deadlocks, high-stakes witness drama, and the emotional moment Storm walked free to see his daughter. Join us to hear why this verdict is both a wake-up call and an opportunity, what Congress, the courts, and the next administration might do next, and how the outcome could reshape DeFi, privacy tech, and open-source innovation for years to come. ------

Deputy AG Todd Blanche met with Jeffrey Epstein's convicted co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell. How unusual is that and where does this development fit within the ongoing Epstein files saga?  This is an excerpt from this week's Insider episode, where Preet Bharara is joined by Lawfare editor-in-chief Ben Wittes, while Joyce is out.  In the full episode, Preet and Ben break down: – The battle over unsealing grand jury testimony in the Epstein case; – The firing of Maurene Comey, an SDNY prosecutor and daughter of former FBI director Jim Comey; – Whether there's any merit to Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's allegations that President Obama committed “treason” in the 2016 Russian election interference matter; and – The Department of Defense's findings that the information shared erroneously by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth via Signal was indeed classified.

In this fun and informative episode, Brad Zerbo and Zak “RedPill78” Paine dive into the swirling chaos around the Epstein files memo that declared no credible client list exists. They debate whether this is a setup to embarrass Trump's administration, a strategic head fake to bait the Deep State, or proof the evidence was destroyed by SDNY prosecutors. The discussion pivots to the newly announced criminal investigations into John Brennan and James Comey over Russiagate misconduct, and whether the timing is designed to distract or signal a turning point. The hosts then break down the viral meltdown of Grok, Elon Musk's AI, which went rogue with politically incorrect truths about Epstein, Israel, and the America Party before getting wiped. Other highlights include reflections on the blackmail networks that have shaped global politics, the real implications of ending property taxes, and the grassroots enthusiasm building around the Great American Restoration Tour. With plenty of humor, personal anecdotes, and a deep look at the strategy behind seemingly contradictory narratives, this episode captures the tension between skepticism and faith that defines the movement in 2025.

The prosecution in the Sean “Diddy” Combs federal trial faced a relentless and strategically savvy defense that systematically dismantled their case, ultimately leading to a devastating defeat. From the outset, the defense aggressively challenged the credibility of key witnesses, exposing inconsistencies, motivations for lying, and gaps in the government's evidence. They effectively painted the prosecution's narrative as built on unreliable testimony and conjecture rather than solid proof, forcing jurors to question the integrity of the entire case. The defense also capitalized on the government's failure to present critical witnesses, such as Victim 3, which created glaring holes in the prosecution's timeline and narrative of a coordinated criminal enterprise. By consistently sowing doubt and framing the allegations as exaggerated or unfounded, the defense controlled the courtroom dynamic and kept the jury skeptical of the government's claims.In addition to witness impeachment, the defense executed a masterclass in legal strategy by rigorously dissecting the elements required for the racketeering and sex trafficking charges, demonstrating that the prosecution failed to meet the high burden of proof. Their attorneys used precise, clear arguments to dismantle the conspiracy theory, emphasizing the lack of direct evidence tying Combs personally to the alleged crimes. This methodical undercutting of both factual and legal foundations left the prosecution's case vulnerable and unpersuasive. As a result, the jury delivered verdicts that rejected the most serious charges, underscoring how the defense's preparation, courtroom performance, and tactical decisions left the prosecution struggling and ultimately getting “their asses kicked” in a high-stakes, complex federal trial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Sean ‘Diddy' Combs trial: How the prosecution failed to prove its most serious charges | CNN

John Quinn is joined by Robert Loigman, partner in Quinn Emanuel's New York office, and Eric Winston, partner in Quinn Emanuel's Los Angeles office.  They discuss the extensive litigation that has followed the 2008 collapse of Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme.  The litigation stems from a liquidation by a court-appointed trustee under the Securities Investor Protection Act (SIPA).  The primary goal of the liquidation was to recover assets for Madoff's victims.  The litigation has continued for 17 years, so far, because of the number of parties involved and the multitude of proceedings and appeals in both the U.S. and foreign courts.The trustee has pursued clawback claims against “feeder funds” under fraudulent transfer theories, targeting both “net winners” who withdrew more than they invested and “net losers” who withdrew less than they invested.  After the estate recovered $7 billion recovery from one feeder fund, investors began to anticipate higher recoveries than normally occur in SIPA proceedings.  Over time, a secondary market in Madoff claims developed, with distressed asset investors buying claims at steep discounts and profiting when recoveries exceeded expectations.  The Madoff litigation has led to several significant legal developments.  One key issue involved included the safe harbor under the Bankruptcy Code for good faith conduct.  Initially, a judge in the SDNY ruled that to show a lack of good faith, a trustee must show that an investor was willfully blind to the fraud at issue.  In 2021, the Second Circuit ruled that simple inquiry notice is enough, placing a greater burden on investors to investigate irregularities.Another significant legal development was the Second Circuit's ruling that U.S. bankruptcy law could reach transfers between foreign debtors and foreign transferees, expanding the potential reach of clawback efforts.  Finally, the Second Circuit ruled that in a Chapter 15 bankruptcy case, certain U.S. standards would apply to transactions between foreign entities even though the foreign courts with jurisdiction over the entities would apply different standards.The uniquely large and visible fraud in the Madoff litigation case may have led courts to expand legal doctrines in ways that affect bankruptcy and investor litigation more generally.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

​In Case 1:24-cv-08054-MKV, the defendants have filed a Memorandum of Law opposing the plaintiff's amended motion for the pro hac vice admission of attorney Anthony Buzbee. Pro hac vice admission allows an out-of-state lawyer to participate in a specific case in a jurisdiction where they are not licensed to practice regularly. The defendants argue that Buzbee's admission should be denied due to concerns about his prior professional conduct, which they believe could negatively impact the proceedings. They emphasize the importance of maintaining the integrity of the court and ensuring that all participating attorneys adhere to the highest ethical standards.Furthermore, the defendants contend that the plaintiff has not sufficiently demonstrated that Buzbee's involvement is necessary for their case, especially considering the availability of other qualified counsel who are already licensed in the jurisdiction. They assert that granting the motion could set a concerning precedent, potentially allowing attorneys with questionable conduct records to participate in cases without proper scrutiny. The memorandum concludes by urging the court to carefully consider these factors and deny the amended motion for Buzbee's pro hac vice admission to uphold the court's standards and ensure a fair trial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

​Prominent Houston attorney Tony Buzbee has withdrawn from representing plaintiffs in over a dozen sexual abuse lawsuits against Sean "Diddy" Combs in the Southern District of New York (SDNY). This decision follows a court order from U.S. District Judge Ronnie Abrams, who noted that Buzbee was not admitted to practice in the SDNY and had failed to disclose this information. In response, Buzbee acknowledged his oversight and filed motions to withdraw from 15 federal cases, stating that his admission status had become a "distraction" from the pursuit of justice for his clientsThe issue arose after Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter filed a grievance against Buzbee, alleging unauthorized practice in the SDNY. Buzbee, who is licensed to practice in New York state courts and the Eastern District of New York, indicated that he plans to address the grievance and seek proper admission to the SDNY. In the meantime, he continues to represent clients in related cases in New York state courts and intends to file additional lawsuits in Nevada and California.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Texas' Tony Buzbee off Sean 'Diddy' Combs-related case

Attorney Tony Buzbee, known for representing over 100 alleged victims in sexual assault lawsuits against Sean "Diddy" Combs, has encountered a significant legal hurdle. The Committee on Grievances for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) recently denied his application for admission to practice in the district, citing his failure to seek proper admission before appearing in cases within its jurisdiction. This decision restricts Buzbee from litigating in the SDNY, which encompasses key areas including New York City's five boroughs.In response, Buzbee has indicated plans to seek "pro hac vice" admission, a legal provision allowing attorneys not licensed in a specific jurisdiction to practice temporarily for particular cases, contingent upon court approval. This process requires him to attach the denial order to each request for admission moving forward. Despite this setback, Buzbee maintains that he is licensed to practice law in New York State and remains committed to his ongoing cases.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Tony Buzbee, attorney for sexual assault suits against Jay-Z and Diddy, hit with minor roadblock

This legal thriller once again follows federal prosecutor Nora Carleton as she contends with a wave of violence tied to an extremist podcaster. We had the opportunity to speak with James Comey about the new book, the shades of gray between free speech and incitation, and his own memories of dealing with institutional rivalries, reluctant jurors, and high-profile cases as a prosecutor.

John is joined by Joyce Vance, former U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama, to discuss the Eric Adams case. Joyce explains why the decision by Donald Trump's Justice Department to dismiss the corruption charges against New York's mayor was so unusual, unwarranted, and improper; why the extraordinary fallout from that decision—resignations by all of the SDNY lawyers central to bringing the charges; an open letter by more than 900 former federal prosecutors sounding the alarm over the DOJ's effort to drop them; the unwillingness of the presiding judge to rubber stamp that effort—reflects its wider and more ominous implications for the rule of law in the Trump 2.0 era; and where the case might go from here.

The directive sent from acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove to drop the corruption charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams has hit a fever pitch, so hosts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord use the bulk of this episode to break down this evolving story and what has come to light so far. They tick through how this standoff between federal prosecutors and the DOJ's directive has led to a slew of resignations, and what to watch for as Judge Dale Ho calls for a Wednesday hearing on the matter in Manhattan.  Andrew and Mary then take a beat to preview the first Supreme Court test of Trump's executive power, over his attempt to fire Hampton Dellinger, the head of the Office of Special Counsel, without cause. (Note: this office is an independent watchdog agency- not part of DOJ). And they wind up this episode by highlighting allegations from whistleblowers that Kash Patel, Trump's nominee to head the FBI, has been directing the firing of senior officials at the FBI.Further reading: Here is Andrew's piece in Just Security: The People of New York v.
