Mega Edition: Jeffrey Epstein And The Sprawling Nature Of His Operation (6/18/26) · The Vault: The Epstein Files

0:01
Speaker 1: So, like I said, This article is from Sputnik News
0:04
and the headline Norwegian journalists admit to receiving death threats
0:08
after Epstein related articles. Again, the author of this article
0:13
is Igor KU's Netsov. The Norwegian newspaper DN earlier revealed
0:21
a close relationship between Turry rod Larsen and Jeffrey Epstein
0:25
that included money, loans, donations, and debt, which ultimately led
0:31
to rod Larsen's resignation and cast a shadow over the
0:34
International Peace Institute he had been sharing as well. It
0:38
should another one of these so called institutions that's wrapped
0:44
up with Jeffrey Epstein, Another one of these so called
0:48
places where people like this inhabit that has a relationship
0:54
with Jeffrey Epstein. Folks, it goes deep. And this is
0:58
just the stuff that's been on. Imagine all the stuff
1:02
that has not been uncovered. Imagine all the stuff that
1:05
nobody even knows about yet. And I am sure there
1:09
are plenty and plenty and plenty more relationships that Jeffrey
1:13
Epstein had with people in these sorts of positions that
1:17
we don't know anything about. And hopefully, as this trial
1:22
continues to get closer and there's more interest in this case.
1:28
We'll get a little bit more of a deeper dive
1:30
from the fourth estate and the clowns that inhabit it.
1:39
After a number of publications about the relationship between disgraced
1:43
financier and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and Norwegian politician and
1:48
former UN Secretary General Terry Rod Larsen, DN journalists have
1:55
received death threats. I mean, really, it's like, I don't
2:01
even understand any of that. At this point. The cat
2:05
is out of the bag. Look, I get it when
2:07
people are breaking news, like if you're breaking news about
2:11
a case like this, or you're breaking news about a
2:14
case like the Panama Papers or anything that is concerning
2:20
elite or powerful, dangerous people, Yeah, that's that's dangerous water
2:26
to be swimming in. But when you're just commentating on
2:29
a story, when you're just following the story, well you
2:34
shouldn't expect stuff like this, right, But I guess they
2:37
were getting a little too deep. They might have they
2:40
must have hit a nerve. They might have gotten to
2:42
a point where people involved were getting very, very uncomfortable
2:47
and they thought, hey, you know what, maybe maybe we'll
2:50
rattle them out of their tree. Maybe we'll scare them
2:54
a little bit. Let's send them a couple of messages.
2:59
So it could be desperation as well. Right, people know
3:04
that these journalists are getting too close. And even if
3:07
the threats don't have any teeth, just the just just
3:10
implying that the threat is there is enough to scare
3:13
some people off. Journalists guard alter Holme and Tory Gerstad
3:21
said an internal report they had received several threats by
3:24
phone and email. I mean, really, by phone and email?
3:28
Speaker 2: Huh?
3:30
Speaker 1: Don't people have anything else better to do? I mean, finally,
3:34
some reporters are digging a little bit deeper in this case,
3:38
and they're the ones who are getting the threatening phone calls.
3:41
They're the ones who are getting the threatening messages. Funny
3:46
how that works. In one of the telephone conversations, the
3:51
voice allegedly said you are an e fing c And
3:55
when I say see, I mean the word that you
3:57
folks over the pond love to use so much. You
4:00
have people coming after you. One of the emails said
4:03
be prepared. I would be scared if I were you.
4:07
Another one asked the reporter to send regards to a
4:10
family member rus Bolton. The Lanisters send their regards. I mean,
4:18
we've been through the ringer here of folks. Let's not
4:21
forget the so called guy dressed up in the ninja
4:24
outfit out in the bushes in front of Jeffrey Epstein's
4:26
who was supposedly a Gambino made man. I mean, you know,
4:30
I've heard a lot of far fetched fairy tales during
4:35
our covering of this case, but that certainly was a zinger,
4:40
and this is ringing of the same. In my opinion,
4:45
I don't know if these threats have any teeth behind them.
4:48
Obviously you got to take it seriously if you're a reporter,
4:51
but would I would guess that it's probably somebody just
4:56
trying to throw them off the trail, get them a
4:58
little scared, have them, you know, focusing on other stories
5:03
as opposed to this one. There were many phone calls
5:09
with harassing content and then this email. And when a
5:13
threatening person also involves family members, it makes the case
5:17
extremely serious. DNS News editor Johnny Yanni Johansen told The
5:23
News Portal Media twenty four. The editor emphasized the seriousness
5:27
of these threats. All right, hey, look they would know
5:29
better than me, right, I'm just some some moron commentating
5:34
on the story. You know, maybe these threats are credible, right,
5:38
and again they definitely should be taken serious, as in,
5:42
you know, if you're the person being threatened, I would
5:45
always take it serious, to be honest with you, you never know. Look,
5:49
we're in a world where there are extremely damaged people
5:55
living amongst us. There are extremely broken people mentally that
6:01
are sharing our airror that are around us all the time.
6:04
I mean, just take a look at these people that
6:06
go on these murdering sprees, shooters, people that stat whatever how,
6:11
whatever method, and it's quite clear that there are a
6:16
lot of people that need immediate mental help. We believe
6:27
that threats like these are completely unacceptable and something we
6:31
take very seriously. Working with sharp issues and covering conflict
6:35
field issues is demanding in itself. No one should have
6:39
to endure harassment and threats in connection with the journalistic work.
6:43
Johanson said, Look, I agree with that. I you know,
6:46
I totally agree with that. Nobody should be harassing anybody, Honestly,
6:50
Nobody should be sending Maxwell's people of bazillion emails, none
6:54
of that stuff. You want to talk about it, you know,
6:58
it's on social media. Whatever, Yeah, cool, go for it.
7:01
But in my humble opinion, I really don't see the
7:05
point in harassing people and sending email and doing all
7:08
of that jazz. It doesn't move the needle right you
7:10
want to talk about it, Educate some more people about
7:13
what's going on. Hell, start a podcast whatever it may be,
7:17
a blog, whatever it is. But I think that's more
7:21
of a productive outlet than firing off nasty, snarky emails.
7:25
Speaker 2: Nevada State Bank has been serving Nevada's business communities for
7:29
over sixty years. This full service bank understands the needs
7:32
of Nevada businesses, taking pride and offering personalized banking services
7:36
for every business owner, whether they run a small business
7:39
or a large corporation. This is just one of the
7:42
reasons why Nevada businesses trust Nevada State Bank for their
7:45
financial needs. Learn more at nsbank dot com. Slash business.
7:54
Speaker 1: Threats against journalists are ugly attempts to stop our critical journalism,
7:58
and then it is all the more important that we
8:01
continue to cover the events the way we would do otherwise.
8:05
The revelations in this complex case and the consequences they
8:08
have had are something we are very proud of. She said, Hey,
8:12
good for you, and I'll always stand up and applaud
8:15
anyone who's willing to take on the so called elite.
8:18
It takes a lot of courage to get up there
8:21
and write articles about these people. If it was easy,
8:27
all of the scoundrels in the American legacy media would
8:30
be doing it. But they, again, they can't be bothered.
8:33
They have better things to do, like engage in tribalism.
8:39
The newspaper string of revelations about the close relationship between
8:43
Rod Larsen and Epstein have had repercussions both in Norway
8:47
and internationally. When we were talking about this originally, I
8:51
knew that this story was going to blow up. I mean,
8:54
you have an ex head of the un involved with Epstein.
8:59
Don't you think that this story deserves more play? And
9:01
don't you think when you look at the whole big
9:04
picture and you put all of those pieces together, it's
9:07
almost impossible not to understand the scope of this at
9:10
this point. And if you are engaging in that, you know,
9:14
acting like nothing was going on here, like this is
9:17
all overblown or anything like that, chances are you're engaging
9:21
in cognitive dissonance at this point, because the evidence is
9:24
there folks, anyone who's willing to see the evidence in
9:27
this case, it's right there laid out for you. Again,
9:31
this isn't a case that was happening two weeks ago.
9:35
This has been going on for decades, and there is
9:38
an ample paper trail to follow if the legacy media
9:44
is willing to get into the muck. Dan earlier established
9:51
that Rod Larson had borrowed money from the financier Pedophile
9:54
in twenty thirteen, and that the New York based International
9:58
Peace Institute, which he had chared between two thousand and
10:01
four and twenty twenty, received donations from foundations affiliated with Epstein.
10:08
And we know that hustle already right. Epstein would play
10:11
the middle man. It would be his money, but it
10:13
would go through somebody else. That way, they wouldn't have
10:16
the stench of Jeffrey Epstein on them. But we're hip
10:19
to that by now. And Lawrence Lessig and his op
10:26
ed over at the Harvard Crimson yesterday pretty much just
10:30
admitted the whole entire scam. Furthermore, Rod Larson personally owed
10:37
Epstein one hundred and thirty thousand dollars, which he himself
10:41
called a serious misjudgment. Again, folks, remember, of all the
10:45
people in the world that this dude's hanging out with
10:48
all the rich people in the world. Jeffrey Epstein's the dude.
10:51
You go and get one hundred and thirty large from
10:54
what Epstein's alone, shark. Now he's putting money out on
10:57
the streets like he's Christopher Molta Santi. Give me a
11:02
break with this guy. I swear when people are like
11:05
you know, if I had a time machine, I'd go
11:07
back to If I had a time machine, I'd go
11:10
back to when this moron was teaching at Dalton and
11:13
I'd out them then show up with all this evidence.
11:16
Remember like back to the future when Biff showed up
11:19
with the sports almanac. That's what I would do. I'd
11:22
show up from the future with all of the news
11:23
clippings and give them to the people at Dalton. Nip
11:28
this shit right in the bud. I mean, enough is enough. Already,
11:36
following the revelations, Rod Larson resigned as president of IPI
11:41
and the Office of the Auditor General has opened a
11:43
full investigation into the Foreign ministries relationship with IPI. So
11:49
again we have another nation state opening an investigation to
11:53
people who were involved with Epstein. And you know what happens,
11:57
inevitably when these investigations get open, even when they're piss
12:01
poor investigations, more is turned up. Look at leone Black.
12:09
I know there's people that think that this dude is
12:11
untouchable teflon Don style, but that is not the case.
12:14
He's in serious jeopardy here, folks, serious jeopardy, especially considering
12:20
that these prosecutors, well, they like to go after that
12:24
big game, don't they. Rod Larsen is most known for
12:31
his role in the negotiations that led to the Oslo
12:34
Peace Accords in the nineties, which were the first ever
12:37
agreements between Israel and the Palestinian Liberation Organization. So, for
12:44
those of you who don't remember, that was some monumental
12:46
stuff when that happened. I remember being real young, you know,
12:50
just a little kid, twelve years old, thirteen years old,
12:53
and I remember when the Oslo piece of chords were occurring,
12:57
and it was a move the needle moment. It felt
12:59
like right, two bad things just pretty much stayed the same.
13:07
In nineteen ninety three, Rod Larson was appointed Ambassador and
13:10
Special Advisor for the Middle East Peace Process to the
13:13
Norwegian Foreign Minister and the following year became the United
13:18
Nations Special Coordinator in the Occupied Territories. It makes me
13:23
feel gross even saying that the occupied territories. I mean,
13:27
we're talking about in Israel, the occupied territories. We're talking
13:31
about Iraq, the occupied territories. I mean, take your pick
13:36
of countries in the Middle East. At this point, this
13:41
is not the first financial scandal involving Rod Larson. In
13:46
nineteen ninety six, Rod Larson resigned as Deputy Prime Minister
13:50
in the Jaglind Cabinet following revelations about his stock trading
13:55
as he failed to claim a prophet of NKA six
13:59
hundred thousand dollars. I think they're their money in uh
14:03
Norway is called krollers, I believe, but six hundred thousand dollars,
14:08
six hundred thousand of their dollars in Norway of the
14:10
NK is sixty three thousand dollars in American on his
14:16
tax return and avoided paying any taxes on it. Of
14:20
course he did. All of these guys avoid paying their taxes.
14:23
I'm sure all of you in America know what tomorrow is, right,
14:26
that's right, pay the irs day. Everyone's favorite day, isn't it.
14:32
But if you're rich, yeah, it doesn't matter. No big deal.
14:35
That's not a day you care about because you're so
14:37
busy using loopholes and avoiding your taxes throughout the year
14:40
that when the time comes actually pay up. Eh, No
14:43
big deal, You've already got the books cooked and the
14:46
loopholes jumped through. However, following his resignation, he returned to
14:54
the UN and again became Under Secretary General. Convicted se
15:00
Fella Jeffrey Epstein was charged with human trafficking and sexual
15:03
exploitation of miners, but died in a prison cell on
15:07
the on August tenth, twenty nineteen, while awaiting trial on
15:11
sex trafficking charges. Allegedly, dozens of women accused him of
15:16
abusing them as miners. Epstein's partner and alleged co conspirator,
15:21
fellow all around scusbag and child abuser, Keelaan Maxwell, currently
15:26
stands accused of aiding and abetting the abuse. Oh end
15:30
of par taking in that abuse as well. Let's make
15:33
sure we drive that home at every single opportunity. As
15:38
for rod Tory Larson, well, the fun and the questions
15:47
for you, my friend, have just begun. If you'd like

16:10
the links that go with this episode can be found
16:13
in the description box to everybody who has donated. What's up, everyone,
16:17
and welcome to another episode of the Epstein Chronicles. Well, well, well,
16:23
we have another royal to add to the roles of
16:26
Jeffrey Epstein's friends, and this time it comes in the
16:29
form of the Swedish Royal. And that Swedish royal is
16:33
Princess Sophia, and she's the wife of Prince Carl Philip,
16:38
who is third in line to the Swedish throne. So
16:41
we're not talking about some minor royal here, whatever that
16:45
might mean. We're talking about somebody that's in the line
16:47
of succession, right, somebody that's very, very close to power,
16:51
and somebody that's never answered for their time with Jeffrey Epstein. Now, look,
16:56
nobody's saying that she was involved in grooming or bringing
17:00
girls to Jeffrey Epstein, but she's never explained why she
17:03
was with him, what she was doing with them and
17:06
how she ended up in his orbit. And when you
17:08
can't or won't answer basic questions, people are going to
17:12
start filling in the gaps. Right, she's not answering because X,
17:15
Y and Z she did this, She did that. She's
17:18
somebody who's guilty. And that's why I've said from the
17:20
beginning that these people should get out ahead of this stuff.
17:23
If you know you were hanging out with Epstein, you
17:25
need to assume that people are going to find out,
17:28
So you should get ahead of it and let people
17:30
know what the deal is before we have to drag
17:32
it out of you. But the problem is these people
17:34
get outed and then they start running, they start hiding,
17:37
They have amnesia, They act like they have no idea
17:39
who Jeffrey Epstein was when the truth is relatively apparent
17:43
to anyone following along. And for me, at this point,
17:47
if you're going to lie about even knowing the dude,
17:49
then I have to assume that you're lying about a
17:51
whole lot. So today we have an article from the
17:54
US Sun and the headline Royal scandal. Royal princess curiously
17:59
vanishes amid Rock Epstein revelations after the ex lingerie model
18:03
was invited to Pedo Island. This article was authored by
18:08
Juliana kruz Lima. The Nobel Prize banquet in the Swedish
18:13
capital glittered as usual on Wednesday night, but one chair
18:16
stayed curiously empty. Yeah, she didn't want to answer any questions.
18:20
Can you imagine the loud ass grown within the Swedish
18:23
royal family hearing about this shit? Oh that's all, we
18:26
need our own version of Prince Andrew. But the female kind.
18:30
Princess Sophia is no fringe royal. As the wife of
18:34
Prince Karl Philip, the son of King Carl the sixteenth
18:38
Gustaf and third line to the Swedish throne, she sits
18:42
at the heart of the monarchy's public image. She is
18:45
normally a guaranteed presence at royal showpieces, but was nowhere
18:48
to be seen at the banquet. The Royal court had
18:52
already announced on November twenty ninth that Sofia would skip
18:55
the Noble gala to look after her ten month old daughter,
18:58
Princess Anez. Oh, yeah, because I'm sure she doesn't have
19:01
a gaggle of people to do that. Nanny's wet nurses
19:05
or I guess as they call them over there, oh, pairs.
19:08
I'm sure there's a whole host of people to take
19:10
care of the kid. And the reason she didn't show
19:13
up is because she didn't want to answer questions. That's
19:16
why she didn't show up. Press spokesman Johann Tegel said
19:21
at the time, Princess Sophia is still looking after Princess Ainez,
19:24
who is still very young, but her unusual absence also
19:28
comes as explosive new revelations about her past ties to
19:32
Jeffrey Epstein surface this week, and they run from it.
19:36
The amount of people who run from this shit is
19:38
just wild. If you didn't do anything wrong and you
19:41
just got caught up because you were in the party
19:43
scene or whatever, people are going to understand that, especially
19:46
if it's before he was convicted. People are going to understand, Hey, look,
19:51
there were people around that had nothing to do with
19:53
his crimes, and probably people that had no idea what
19:56
he was up to. So I have no doubt that
19:59
there's peopeople out there that were around him that really
20:02
had no clue as to the scope of what Epstein was. Sure,
20:06
they thought he was probably weird, and they knew he
20:08
liked younger type girls, but to the level of what
20:13
he was up to, I highly doubt it, not for everybody,
20:17
especially these younger girls. I highly doubt that Jeffrey Epstein
20:20
had this princess as part of this scheme of the plot.
20:23
But that's not the point. The point is this woman
20:26
has known for all these years she was friends with Epstein,
20:29
that she was at Epstein's house, that she was around,
20:32
and she ran from it. She never came forward. She
20:35
waited until she was outed by the emails. And like
20:38
I said in the opening, when you do that, you
20:40
leave a lot of room for people to criticize you
20:42
and to ask what the hell you knew, when you
20:45
knew it, and why you didn't say anything sooner. Decades
20:49
old emails and palace admissions appeared to now dragger into
20:53
the global fallout of the Epstein files. According to the
20:56
German outlet Build, the Swedish court has now publicly a
21:00
knowledged what had circulated only in whispers. Officials told the
21:04
newspaper Daggin's Nader, Princess Sophia met the person in question
21:09
a few times about twenty years ago, a few times.
21:12
Is it okay? What were you doing there? How were
21:15
you introduced to him. Why were you there? What did
21:18
you see? You know, basic questions that all of us
21:20
would have to answer if we were ever caught up
21:22
in this kind of shit. People like her, they just hide.
21:26
I'm gonna go watch my kid. No big deal, nobody's
21:27
gonna press me. She's out here. Using the Prince Andrew's strategy.
21:33
She was introduced to the person in question several times
21:36
around two thousand and five. Introduced to the person in
21:39
question several times. Well, you're introduced one time, and then
21:42
after that it becomes a decision, right Like, I'm not
21:46
gonna knock somebody. If you're at a party and somebody
21:49
walks up to you at somebody else's house and they're
21:51
with Epstein and they're like, hey, this is Jeffrey Epstein,
21:53
blah blah blah, that means you're introduced to them when
21:57
you go to their house multiple times. A little bit
22:00
more than being introduced, means that you have some kind
22:03
of relationship, whether it's you know, a friendly relationship or
22:07
something more. I have no idea, but some kind of
22:09
relationship was present back then. Sofia Helkvist wasn't yet a princess,
22:15
but a lingerie model, reality TV personality and aspiring actress
22:19
navigating New York's night life? What does that even mean?
22:22
Navigating New York's night life? So she was a party girl,
22:26
a lingerie model, right in Jeffrey Epstein's willlhouse. Did she
22:30
ever work for mc squared? What did she know about
22:33
Jean Luke Brunel? What did she know about Faith Kates?
22:35
What did she know about the whole industry? How about
22:37
Gerald Marie? These are questions she should probably answer, These
22:43
are questions she probably won't. She was allegedly being promoted
22:47
into elite circles by businesswoman Barbara and Baum, another person
22:52
that Epstein really had a lot of connections with one
22:55
thousand percent. So this goes a lot deeper than they're
22:58
letting on. I think it's a lot more than This
23:01
woman was just at Jeffrey Epstein's house. What was she
23:04
doing there? Why was she there? And what did she
23:06
do once she got there? Because I highly doubt you
23:09
were over there for your conversational skill. Newly leaked emails
23:14
published by nonprofit site d doos secrets dot com and
23:17
are reported by the Swedish news outlet dagens Nyer reportedly
23:21
show end Bomb pitching her directly at Epstein, this is Sophia,
23:25
aspiring actress. Maybe you'd like to meet her. Epstein allegedly
23:29
took the bait. His reply from the Caribbean read, I'm
23:32
in the Caribbean. Does she want to come for a
23:34
couple of days. I'll send a ticket. The email suggests
23:38
he even offered Sofia and a friend acting school placements,
23:42
invitations the Palace insists were never accepted. I don't know
23:45
if I believe that. I truly don't know if I
23:47
believe it. From what we've learned about Prince Andrew and
23:51
how the Royals take care of this shit, I highly
23:54
doubt that we're getting the truth from the Swedish Royals either,
23:57
and I think this has the potential to really blow
23:59
up in the Swedish royal family's face Builder reports one
24:04
of Sophia's alleged encounters with Epstein took place at a
24:07
dinner party at his Upper east Side mansion. Other messages
24:11
show epstein assistant chasing Nbomb for updates. Jeffrey wonders what
24:15
really happened with Camilla? Did you tell her she has
24:18
a ticket to New York anytime she wants, Mbomb replied,
24:22
clarifying Epstein meant Sophia, the little beautiful, dark haired girl
24:26
who had her friend Camilla with her. Camilla now says
24:29
she wants nothing to do with suggestions that they showed interest. Oh,
24:33
I'm sure, I'm sure you just want to hide from it.
24:36
But guess what that shit's done. There's no more hiding.
24:39
The survivors can't hide from what happened to them. Society
24:43
can hide from what happened to us. So you're not
24:45
going to hide for being part of it, even if
24:47
it was just a little small part. You're gonna have
24:49
to answer for it. Sorry, No more hiding behind your
24:52
titles when the shit comes down. Now that you've been
24:56
out it, it's time to answer some questions, she told
25:00
dagans Nier. Thank god, you know when the truth has
25:03
come out. I was twenty two years old. It's really
25:06
unpleasant to think what could have happened. He probably mostly
25:09
wanted to throw out an offer to show that he
25:11
could and had power and money. Officials say the meetings
25:15
happened before Epstein's two thousand and eight conviction, and that
25:18
Princess Sophia has neither applied for nor attended any form
25:23
of acting training. Well, okay, cool, why did you go
25:27
there multiple times? If he was such a creep, if
25:30
everything was so uncomfortable, why did you go there multiple times?
25:33
And also, don't get caught up on the island stuff.
25:36
That wasn't the only place where people were getting abused.
25:39
Epstein was abusing people at every property he went to,
25:43
whether that was in France, whether that was in America,
25:46
or wherever the fuck the dude was. So the whole
25:49
entire island things a bit of a red herring. Of course,
25:52
the island was horrible. What was going on down there unconscionable.
25:56
But it's not the only place. So when people are like,
25:58
well I never went to the island, okay, great, what
26:01
did you see at the house, What did you see
26:03
at the ranch? What did you see when you were elsewhere?
26:06
Because it's not just the island. But they have not
26:10
explained why Sophia came into Epstein's orbit in the first place,
26:13
nor how far her mentor and BOM's role extended. The
26:18
business woman went on to attend Sofia's royal wedding a
26:21
decade later, so they stayed friends, And you would think
26:24
that if somebody introduced you to a monster like Epstein,
26:27
you wouldn't be their friend anymore, right, I know I
26:29
wouldn't be if you and I were homies and you
26:32
invited me to your house and there was some kind
26:34
of child molester there and I found out, First of all,
26:36
I'm probably punching him in the face. Second of all,
26:39
we're never talking again, and you're gonna be lucky. I
26:42
don't punch you in the face. How dare you put
26:44
me in that situation? How dare you put me around
26:47
somebody like that? But I guess these royals are built different.
26:49
I guess they just forgive everybody right. They really think
26:53
we're stupid. They think that we're just gonna believe any
26:56
kind of nonsense they throw out, and that we're just
26:58
gonna nod our heads along like a bunch of trained
27:00
seals and wait for our fish. Well, it's not gonna
27:03
happen anymore because people are now paying attention and they
27:07
understand that this was something more than just a loan
27:09
predator who was sitting around watching porn and you know,
27:13
having these disgusting proclivities. This was a man that was
27:17
completely connected and a man that was completely locked in
27:20
when it comes to some of the most powerful people
27:22
in the world, whether that's in finance, whether that's in academia,
27:26
or as we see here, part of a royal family.
27:29
Because at this point, either you're standing on the side
27:32
of transparency and accountability or you're gonna get steamrolled by it.
27:38
All of the information that goes with this episode can
27:41
be found in the description box. What's up, everyone, and
27:44
welcome to another episode of the Epstein Chronicles. Without Jean
27:49
Luke Brunel, there could have never been Jeffrey Epstein, at
27:54
least not to the level that we saw. And that's
27:57
because Jean lu Brunell was ain. He was the guy
28:02
that was bringing these girls to Jeffrey Epstein from all
28:05
of these far flung locations, whether it be South America,
28:09
Eastern Europe, or anywhere in between, and he was not
28:14
working alone. So when you see people say that Epstein
28:17
wasn't involved in human trafficking, they're lying to you. And
28:21
that's because, without a shadow of a doubt, no debate needed,
28:26
Jean Luke Brunel was providing girls to Jeffrey Epstein, and
28:30
Jeffrey Epstein in return, provided girls back to Jean Luke Brunel.
28:34
And we literally have mountains of evidence pointing to this,
28:38
but for years nobody cared, nobody wanted to look into it.
28:43
What about when Brunel went to the authorities in twenty sixteen,
28:47
said he was going to snitch on Epstein and then
28:49
what happened? Oh, that's right. He disappeared, not died, but
28:53
disappeared off the grid. No more contact with the authorities,
28:57
no more talk of flipping on Epstein. I guess is
29:00
somebody got to him. Hey, Jean Luke not a good idea.
29:06
You know who Jeffrey is, you know whose people are,
29:09
and you know the score, something along those lines. But
29:13
whenever you're talking about Jeffrey Epstein and his human trafficking pipeline,
29:18
it starts and it ends with John Luke Brunel. And
29:22
considering he's been such a key cog in what Epstein
29:25
has done over the years, does it shock you that
29:28
he quote unquote took his own life as well behind bars.
29:32
And look, I've told you from the beginning that Jean
29:35
Luke Brunell is the key to taking down Epstein, Nachlainne Maxwell,
29:39
it was always Jean Luke Brunel, These two men, they
29:44
were up to no good and that's putting it lightly.
29:47
And the amount of damage caused by Jean Luke Brunell,
29:51
by the people working with them, and by that shitty
29:54
modeling agency MC squared is just unbelievable. They were literally
30:00
bringing these girls over here, putting them at that building
30:04
at East sixty six, and then bringing them to live
30:07
with Jeffrey Epstein depending on what he was feeling. And
30:11
that's not me telling you again, that's from the Merits
30:15
of Asquez deposition that she gave in regards to what
30:18
was going on when the investigation first kicked off. And
30:23
even with all the information that she gave, with all
30:26
of the corroborating information, nobody moved on Jean lu Bruneau.
30:32
And they can't say it wasn't on their radar because
30:35
we just learned that he was almost a government informant
30:39
who was giving information about Jeffrey Epstein. So in this episode,
30:43
we have an article from International Business Times and the
30:47
headline Epstein files reveal French castles used as sex trafficking
30:52
sites while underage models sent to US for exploitation. This
30:57
article was authored by chrisnell LONGI know a chilling new
31:03
chapter in the Epstein saga has emerged as confidential court
31:06
documents revealed the scale of abuse orchestrated in France by
31:10
Jean lu Brunel. Far from acting alone, Brunel, a close
31:14
associate of Jeffrey Epstein, is shown to have run an
31:18
industrial system of exploitation, transforming luxury castles and departments into
31:24
sites of abuse. So all those people that have been
31:27
out here for the last I don't know a couple
31:28
of months telling you that Epstein was a loan operator
31:32
just doing this because he was bored and sick. They've
31:36
lied to you, and it's disgusting, and there's people out
31:41
here that are dying on the hill. Oh, Epstein wasn't
31:44
some kind of human trafficker. That's all just overblown. But
31:48
the only thing that's overblown is all the hot ass
31:51
air coming out of their mouths. Because there's no doubt
31:55
that Jeffrey Epstein was not only providing but receivings, and
32:00
I mean luxury castles and apartments into sites of abuse.
32:05
It's like something right out of a fucking horror movie.
32:07
The thirty page judicial order, dating from twenty twenty three
32:11
and previously unseen, outlines how underage models were systematically exploited
32:16
and sometimes sent to the United States for further abuse,
32:20
raising questions about how such a network could operate with
32:23
nearer total impunity. Well, not really, not when you know
32:28
the deal, not when you know who was being protected.
32:31
That was the bone. They threw him right to be
32:33
the middleman, to be an asset. They gave him a
32:36
little leeway to abuse people. But they said to him, Look, Jeffrey,
32:40
you got nailed the first time here. We got you
32:42
out of it, but now you're gonna have to get
32:44
girls from outside the United States. We can't have this
32:47
happen again, and if it does, we're gonna have to
32:49
burn you as an asset. I mean, doesn't that sound
32:53
more logical than just the fact that Jeffrey Epstein was
32:57
a sick bastard who happened to get lucky, and how
33:01
the government decided they didn't want to go after them.
33:04
That makes sense to anybody out there. The documents reveal
33:09
a disturbing logistical operation from grand castles in Normandy to
33:13
upscale Preisian apartments. Properties were specifically used to facilitate predation.
33:20
Testimony describes how victims were transported to isolated locations where
33:25
the abuse took place often during trip presented as professional
33:29
modeling assignments, and that was the theme throughout. They get
33:33
these girls, bring them to America, they'd engage in immigration
33:38
fraud to get them to you know, stay here, and
33:40
then they take their passports and they'd abuse them. Oh
33:44
sure they might get a modeling shoot, but they'll also
33:46
get some trauma that comes along with it after they
33:49
get abused by whichever one of these scumbags happens to
33:52
be there. One former model recounted being taken to a
33:58
small castle and assaulted, describing hidden passageways that allowed Brunel
34:02
to orchestrate attacks without being seen. That is some blood
34:06
and cheese type shit from House of the Dragon. Imagine
34:10
this rotten, disgusting fuck sneaking through some kind of passageway
34:13
and showing up in your bedroom while you're asleep. These
34:19
spaces were designed to intimidate, isolate, and control, creating an
34:24
environment in which Brunell's victims fell trapped and powerless. The
34:29
judicial file details repeated patterns of abuse over decades, painting
34:33
a systematic picture rather than isolated incidents. Well that's because
34:38
they weren't isolated. It was a pattern. It was an enterprise,
34:42
and it was all done at the behest of Jeffrey Epstein.
34:45
Brunell's influence extended beyond property ownership into the modeling world.
34:50
Agencies such as Karen Models and MC squared allegedly served
34:55
as talent pools where young women's careers were conditioned on
34:58
submitting to sexual demands. This is something that I've heard
35:03
time and time again, and when I talk about the
35:05
girls with know names, this is who I'm talking about, folks.
35:10
These girls were brought here, exploited and then sent back
35:13
or worse, who the fuck knows, and nobody has any
35:17
idea who any of them are. And I find that
35:20
very very concerning. And just because somebody is not from
35:24
my country doesn't mean I'm not worried about their well
35:26
being or that they were abused and taken advantage of,
35:29
especially if that shit happened inside of my country. Now
35:34
it's my problem, and since it's my problem, I'm going
35:38
to make it their problem. And until they give us
35:41
the information that's needed, the problem continues. Aspiring models were groomed, monitored,
35:49
and coerced into compliance under the guise of professional advancement.
35:54
Confiscated passports, ongoing pressure from powerful figures and a network
35:59
of international contacts reportedly enabled Brunell to operate without fear
36:03
of prosecution for years he was protected by Epstein. Jeffrey's
36:08
people extended their protection to Brunell as well. This is
36:12
not that difficult, folks, Okay, not that difficult at all,
36:16
especially when you realize that there's trillions of dollars missing
36:20
from the Pentagon's budget. Where do you think that money went?
36:24
I think it just disappeared into the air. They're using
36:28
that shit to run these black ops that nobody knows about.
36:31
And that's what Jeffrey Epstein was a CIA black op
36:35
who decided to run it. Who put it into play?
36:37
I don't know, but in my opinion from everything I've seen,
36:42
no doubt in my mind. Brunell's death in La Cente
36:45
prison in February of twenty twenty two effectively ended the
36:49
legal proceedings against them, but the newly examined court order
36:53
makes clear that the closure was administrative rather than a
36:57
reflection of the truth. The thirty page dismissal lists numerous witnesses, complaints,
37:03
and a ledge accomplices, showing a complex system of abuse
37:06
spanning more than four decades. Do you believe that he
37:10
killed himself? Brunel, I have my doubts. Man. You know,
37:14
at first I believed it, right. I thought that, you
37:17
know what, this guy was up against it and he
37:19
just killed himself. But the more I think about it,
37:22
the more we go through the information, and the more
37:24
information that becomes available, the less I'm convinced. Experts and
37:31
advocates argue that this abrupt end to the prosecution leaves
37:34
unanswered questions about the broader Epstein network in Europe. The
37:39
French document corroborates similar findings in the United States, emphasizing
37:43
that Brunell's operations were international in scope and not isolated
37:47
to Parisian or US locations. Well, who told you that?
37:51
Seven years ago? I just happened to talk to people
37:54
that knew the dude, and they all told me the
37:59
same thing. Jean lu Brunel and Jeffrey Epstein were engaging
38:05
in an international trafficking ring. Following the release of the
38:12
confidential twenty twenty three court order, French authorities have announced
38:16
a re examination of the case, signaling that justice may
38:20
yet extend beyond the fall of a single man. Well,
38:23
that would be good. Somebody needs to do it. If
38:27
the US isn't going to do it, somebody has to
38:29
do it. Chase this shit down to wherever it ends.
38:33
The investigation seeks to address the infrastructure that allowed exploitation
38:37
to become routine, from complicit modeling agencies, the high profile
38:42
international figures implicated by testimony. Judicial sources suggest that revisiting
38:49
the case could lead to renewed scrutiny of anyone who
38:52
enabled or turned a blind eye to Brunell's actions. Victims
38:56
rights groups emphasize that understanding the full network is u
39:00
to preventing future abuses and acknowledging decades of suffering. The
39:06
Epstein files, now increasingly public, are thus not only a
39:09
record of criminal behavior, but also a call to uncover
39:13
the entire system that enabled it. And I think that's
39:16
what we need to focus on, because if we uncover
39:20
that and we pull that thread, everything else is going
39:23
to come into play. And if you really want to
39:25
get to the bottom of what was going on with Epstein,
39:28
Jean Luke Brunell is a fantastic place to start. All
39:34
the information that goes with this episode can be found
39:37
in the description box. What's up everyone, and welcome to
39:40
another episode of the Epstein Chronicles, the long list of
39:44
crimes committed by Jeffrey Epstein in the UK did not
39:48
happen in a vacuum. That's the comfortable lie that they
39:51
want to tell you, the one that lets institutions pretend
39:54
that they were overwhelmed, confused, outpaced by a man who
39:58
was somehow too elusive to down. But when you trace
40:01
the movements of Jeffrey Epstein through the UK, that excuse
40:05
falls apart almost immediately. He wasn't hiding in the shadows.
40:09
He wasn't operating off the grid. He was moving through
40:12
elite social circles, hosting, attending, networking, interfacing with people who
40:17
are making themselves plugged in to the vary systems that
40:21
are supposed to detect, flag, and act on predatory behavior.
40:26
And at multiple points along that timeline, concerns were raised,
40:29
not rumors, not vague suspicions, actual red flags enough to
40:34
warrant scrutiny, enough to justify intervention. But nothing meaningful happened,
40:39
No escalation, no sustained pressure, just a quiet pattern of
40:43
dismissal that, over time starts to look less like in
40:47
competence and more like a choice. Because here's the part
40:50
that doesn't sit right when you start lining it all up.
40:53
Every time something surfaced, every time someone pushed information forward,
40:57
it didn't trigger urgency. It triggered contain pament. The response
41:02
wasn't we need to look deeper into this? Instead it
41:05
was this doesn't go anywhere. Now. They want to call
41:07
that a breakdown, but I call it a filter. And
41:10
filters don't operate randomly. They operate with intent. Whether it
41:15
was institutional hesitation, fear of reputational damage, deference to wealth
41:20
and influence, or something even more deliberate, the effect was
41:23
the same. Epstein and his criminal empire kept moving uninterrupted.
41:29
The system that should have slowed him down instead absorbed
41:31
the impact and kept him insulated. And the longer that
41:34
went on, the harder it becomes to argue that nobody
41:37
understood what he was. Now you fast forward to the present,
41:41
where pieces of the record, emails, testimonies, internal communications are
41:45
starting to surface in greater volume, and what those pieces
41:49
do is remove the benefit of the doubt because they
41:51
show awareness, they show proximity. They show that Epstein wasn't
41:55
some unknown quantity drifting through British territory. He was a
41:58
own problem that was repea needly deprioritized, and once that
42:02
becomes clear, the narrative shifts from failure to tolerance, not
42:07
because anyone stood up and said protect them, but because
42:09
the cumulative effect of an action did exactly that. When
42:14
warnings don't lead to action, they become permission, and over
42:17
the years, that permission hardens into something that looks a
42:21
lot like policy, even if it was never written down.
42:25
And that's where this stops being about Epstein alone and
42:28
starts becoming about institutional accountability, because if the same name
42:33
keeps appearing alongside ignored warnings, ignored opportunities, ignored interventions, then
42:39
you're no longer asking why didn't they catch them? You're
42:41
asking why didn't they want to? And that is a
42:44
much more uncomfortable question. It forces you to consider whether
42:48
the cost of acting socially, politically, reputationally was deemed higher
42:53
than the cost of doing nothing. And if that calculation
42:56
was made, even implicitly, then what you're looking at isn't
43:00
a failure of law enforcement or oversight. It's a failure
43:03
of will. And now that the paper trail is expanding,
43:06
now that more of these fragments are becoming visible, the
43:09
pressure shifts because you can't keep calling it coincidence when
43:13
the same outcome repeats itself under different circumstances. You can't
43:17
keep calling it oversight when the oversight consistently favors the
43:21
same person. At some point, the pattern demands to be
43:24
acknowledged for what it is, and what it suggests plainly
43:28
is that the system didn't just miss Epstein, it made
43:31
room for him. Today's article is from The Guardian and
43:35
the headline Epstein housed alleged victims in London after MET
43:39
declined to investigate him. This article was authored by Jamie Grierson.
43:46
Jeffrey Epstein how some of his alleged abuse victims in
43:49
flats in London after police in the UK decided against
43:53
investigating them, according to reports, all by design. I hate
43:57
to say it, but it's true. The cover up vast,
44:01
and the cover up runs deep, and it's not just
44:05
contained in America, and it's not just contained to London.
44:09
This is a worldwide cover up that involves so many
44:13
powerful people that it's almost hard to wrap your head around.
44:16
And I speculated that the MET killed these investigations back
44:20
in the day when they were happening, because they wanted
44:23
to protect Andrew, but what they did was just make
44:26
things a lot worse, not only for them but for
44:28
Andrew too, because it's all a cover up now and
44:32
I think that the cover up in the UK is
44:35
going to be unraveled. The BBC said it uncovered evidence
44:39
of four flats in Kensington and Chelsea in receipts, emails
44:43
and bank records contained within Epstein's files. Six women who
44:47
stayed in the properties have since accused the late financier
44:51
of sexually abusing them. The broadcaster said, well, the broadcaster
44:55
BBC should have done more at the time, but they
44:58
were too busy calling every body who was interested in
45:01
the story a conspiracy theorist or crazy. Well who's crazy
45:06
now because all these chickens are coming home to roost
45:09
and BBC might be breaking this story right now, but
45:12
they're about five years too late. And can you imagine
45:14
if they would have broke this story early and let
45:16
people know what was going on, and let all of
45:18
you know what was going on, Imagine the anger, imagine
45:23
the rage. But no, instead they played games, just like
45:28
here in America. Some of the women, including some from
45:32
Russia and Eastern Europe, were brought to the UK after
45:35
the Metropolitan Police decided not to investigate Virginia Roberts twenty
45:40
fifteen allegation that she had been a victim of international
45:43
trafficking to London. The BBC said all at the Queen's demand.
45:49
I know people don't want to hear that, and I
45:51
know people love the Queen, but the Queen was involved deeply.
45:56
She protected Andrew from the very beginning, all the way
46:00
up until her death, and she knew exactly the kind
46:04
of monster that Andrew was. But as far as the
46:07
met there's no way that they were ever going to
46:09
go against the Queen, certainly not now. Charles. Maybe I
46:13
don't think that Charles has built up the you know,
46:16
rapport or the love with the English people. The Queen
46:20
was beloved and people were willing to give her the
46:24
benefit of the doubt. I highly doubt that anybody wants
46:27
to give Charles the benefit of anything. So maybe this
46:30
investigation ends up having a different outcome that would be great.
46:35
Am I confident that that'll happen. I'm not. Do I
46:38
hope it will. I do, because it's something like that
46:42
that could really open the floodgates. And while I think
46:44
that there's a better chance at that happening now that
46:47
the queen is gone. I'm not very confident that it's
46:50
going to Roberts was one of Epstein's most high profile accusers,
46:54
alleging the convicted child sex offender abused and traffickeder. What
46:59
do you mean, accuser? You mean survivor, right, somebody that
47:02
was abused by Jeffrey Epstein and Jeffrey Epstein's friends. That's
47:06
what you mean, right. She claimed in a twenty twenty
47:09
one US lawsuit that Andrew mount Baton Windsor had sex
47:12
with her at a home in London in two thousand
47:14
and one when she was seventeen, after she had been
47:17
trafficked by Epstein. Mount Baton Windsor has denied the allegations.
47:22
The BBC reported various details from the files dated around
47:26
twenty eighteen and twenty nineteen after Robert's allegation, that show
47:31
Epstein corresponding with women housed in flats in affluent areas
47:36
of London. And this is something that we reported. How
47:39
did I know? I listened to the survivors they were
47:42
telling us this, and we also had anonymous people talking
47:46
about it. How the airports in the UK were being used,
47:51
how there were women being housed in London, and how
47:55
the authorities were just ignoring it. And I remember at
47:58
the time being called crazy. Well, I guess it's not
48:01
so crazy anymore, is it. In some of the exchanges
48:04
seen by the broadcaster, Epstein uses aggressive language after the
48:08
women apparently complained of the conditions. In one message, he
48:12
reportedly swears at one woman, calling her rude and accuses
48:15
her of discussing behavior, saying she was a brat who
48:19
has yet to accept responsibility. And that's right on bran
48:22
for Epstein. The guide to mean people talk trash to
48:26
people and talk down to everybody. And when it comes
48:29
to these girls, they were a commodity, right, They weren't human.
48:33
There were just another commodity for Epstein to trade. Another
48:36
message seen by the BBC reveals pictures of cute models
48:40
sent to Epstein by one of the women in London.
48:43
Epstein also reportedly paid for at least five women, many
48:46
of whom were in the UK on student visas to
48:49
study in London. Of course he did. That was a pipeline,
48:54
that was one of the stopovers, and that was his
48:57
central base. When it comes to Europe, Yifrey Epstein and
49:00
Glenn Maxwell obviously loved London, and they spent a lot
49:04
of time there. And anybody who thinks that they weren't
49:06
abusing people while they were there, they're crazy. They most
49:10
certainly were. And here's another little golden nugget. They were
49:14
engaged in immigration fraud in the UK, just like in
49:17
the United States. Now that part hasn't been reported yet,
49:21
but it's coming and I have that on a pretty
49:23
good source. Millions of documents, images, videos, and emails detailing
49:29
the activities of Epstein, who died in jail in twenty
49:33
nineteen while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges, have
49:36
been released since December last year, including documents collected as
49:40
evidence in the criminal case against them and his associates.
49:44
His associates, huh, you mean Gleann Maxwell. No criminal case
49:48
against anybody else. The files were released after the US
49:52
House of Representatives passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act and
49:56
the Senate unanimously approved it, with Donald Trump signing the
50:00
bill into law the next day. The met Police have
50:03
been contacted for comment. All right, folks, So things are
50:07
heating up over in the UK and considering just how
50:09
quickly things are moving over in Europe and how fast
50:13
the story is expanding. We're gonna launch a podcast that
50:16
deals with Epstein in Europe because I keep getting a
50:19
lot of messages from people over in Europe who want
50:22
more coverage of the story. So that's what we're gonna do.
50:26
We're gonna launch a companion podcast that deals with Epstein
50:30
over in Europe and is centered on people like Prince Andrew.
50:34
So my plan is in the next few days to
50:36
have that bad Boy launched and ready to go. And
50:39
once that happens, I'll make sure that I link that
50:41
podcast in the description box. Until then, that's going to
50:45
do it for this one. All the information that goes
50:47
with this episode can be found in the description box.
