• 0:00
  Speaker 1: What's up everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Epstein Chronicles. Yo, the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family's
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: problems continue to get worse, and now all of the
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: messages that Prince Andrew exchanged with Glenn Maxwell and Jeffrey
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: Epstein have been ordered to be preserved. And for Prince Andrew,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: that's terrible news. That's the kind of news that's certainly
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: going to keep you up at night because that's the
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: kind of news that eventually leads to an indictment. And
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: considering all of the other things that are hanging over
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Andrew's head right now, certainly not the best news that
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: he's ever received. And if you were wondering why he's
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: using his daughters to try and get back in the
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: graces of the royal family, I'm sure this is one
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: of the reasons why. So today we have an article
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: from International Business Times and the headline every message they
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: exchange ex Prince Andrews communications with Epstein and Maxwell locked
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: down by prosecutors. This article was authored by Rhea Pathak.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Former Prince Andrew's long running links to Jeffrey Epstein have
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: come under renewed scrutiny after US prosecutors moved to preserve
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: what investigators believe could be the full record of the
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: communication with the disgraced financier and convicted sex trafficker Glene Maxwell.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: That could be very, very damning And if the UK
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: authorities are serious about justice when it comes to Andrew,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: that's the kind of shit that could send you on
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: a very long vacation if you get my drift, and
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: we're not talking about a vacation down to Arabia. According
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: to reports, the sweeping evidence preservation orders issued to major
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: technology and travel companies prevent the deletion of emails, messages,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: and digital records connected to Andrews's reported visits to Epstein's
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: New Mexico ranch. All authorities continue their criminal investigation. And look,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now, he was at that ranch.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Not only Virginia told me, but other sources while I
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: was down in New Mexico. So he can't even try
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: and wiggle his way out of it. Now, he'll downplay
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: it and maybe he'll have another excuse for us. Oh,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I was at the local text mes place. I have
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: no idea I was at Roberto's. Was it me? Although
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Andrew faces no charges, the latest move is a watershed
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: moment in the years long inquiry. What do you mean
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: he faces no charges. We don't know what he faces
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: and what he does in face. Yet this man is
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: under investigation. And while I have my doubts about how
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: far it's gonna go, I'm willing to wait and see.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Let's see what happens. Let's see who they go after,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Let's see who they talk to, Let's see where it
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: all goes. The investigation took a fresh turn after new
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Mexico Attorney General Raoul Torres issued evidence preservation notices till
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: more than two dozen companies, including Google, WhatsApp, Yahoo, American Express,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: and Expedia. According to reports, investigators want to ensure communication
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: connected Depstein's or a ranch remain intact before routine data
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: attention policies can erase them. Yeah. I don't know about routine,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: but I will tell you this, the more information you
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: can get your hands on, the better you're going to
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: be because you can't rely on the DOJ. So if
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: I was New Mexico, I'd be looking to get my
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: hands on the raw data so I could go through
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: it with my investigators and see what's what. And it's
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: crazy that I even have to say that. Imagine having
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: that little confidence in the DOJ. Now, Look, it's never
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: been perfect, right, but at least previously under most administrations,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: it's strived for independence. It wasn't the legal arm of
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: the sitting president, but that that's what it is. Now.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: The DOJ has no desire to find out what happened
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: when it comes to Epstein. They have one desire, and
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: one desire only to move on. And of course the
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: big monkey in the wrench, the fly in the ointment,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: is you, because you refuse to move on. But the department,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: that's what they want. The last thing they want to
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: do is talk about this. They'd rather talk about literally
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: anything else. One source familiar with the investigation told the
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: media that because Epstein communicated with Andrew through Gmail, prosecutors
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: are seeking to preserve every message that they ever exchanged.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Now are they going to be successful? I don't know.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Maybe I'm not too hip on how the servers work.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: How long is that information held for? Is it kept indefinitely?
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Is there some kind of dump? And if there is,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: I would expect that Jeffrey Epstein has been a recipient
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: of it. Considering everything else that we've seen and how
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: we've learned that Jeffrey Epstein certainly was at the table
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: when it comes to these tech titans. Makes you wonder,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: doesn't it. The source also claim that the preservation order
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: extended beyond the emails to include travel records and other
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: digital communications that could help investigators reconstruct activity surrounding the
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: ranch and the people who visited it. And it might
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: be a massive investigation and a massive undertaking, but if
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: you really want to figure out what happened, you have
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: to talk to everybody that you can, every single person
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: that was ever there that you can document, right, bring
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: them all in, sit them down, and get to work.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: That's how a case is built. The preservation order come
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: as authorities continue examining allegation surrounding Epstein's eight thousand acres
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: or a ranch in New Mexico where multiple women have
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: alleged the they were groomed or abused. How many court
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: documents do we have alleging that. How many survivor testimonies
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: do we have alleging that. So, yeah, I'm going to
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: go with all of that's true. Now to the extent
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: that it was happening, I don't know. I'm not going
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: to sit here and make pretend I can tell you
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: exactly how many people were abused in Zoro Ranch or
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: what they went through, but I will tell you this,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: whatever was going on at that ranch was straight up evil,
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: and I mean that in every sense of the word.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Former ranch employees, including cleaners, administrative staff, ranch hands, and
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: senior managers, have reportedly been interviewed about visitors to the property,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: guest movements, and day to day operations. Investigators have also
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: questioned witnesses about Andrew's reported visits to the ranch. According
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: to the report, The inquiry has also interviewed one former
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: employee who allegedly drove the former prince from a local airport.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Told you years ago, and now it's all coming true,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: and unlike other people, you can just go back and
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: check my work. I told you that Andrew was at
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Doro Ranch, and the reason I knew is because Virginia
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: told me. And not only that, but when I was there,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: multiple people said that, oh yeah, Prince Andrew certainly was
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: here visiting Jeffrey Epstein down at the ranch. So is
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: it any shock that now they're finally doing an investigation
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: that's what they uncover because breaking news. I'm certainly not
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: some investigator, and when I went down there, I had
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: no problem finding people that were willing to talk. So
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: do you think that the Attorney General's office couldn't find
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: people that were willing to go on the record. Come on,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: nobody buys that. It wasn't that there was no evidence.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: The problem is there was no will. Attorney General Torres
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: said reopening the investigation had been on taken with deep
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: respect for survivors and a commitment to accountability, adding that
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: authorities continue to encouraging anyone with information about alleged abuse
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: or legal activity at the ranch to come forward. And look,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: I agree with that. If you're somebody out there that
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: has information and you're willing to come forward, I think
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: now's the time. Now. On the flip side of that,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: it's easy for me to say I'm not the one
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: that went through it. I'm not the one that has
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: to live with it, or look at my kids and say, hey, look,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: mom was abused by these disgusting animals. How do you
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: even have that conversation? How do you even bring that up?
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: How do you sit down with your child and tell
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: them that. So it's one thing for me to say
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: people should come forward, right, But it's a whole less
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: other thing for these people to actually do it, especially
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: when you have a DOJ that has no desire to
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: protect them. So where does that leave people? It leaves
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: them holding onto their secrets once again, Despite the renewed
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: focus on his communications, Andrew has consistently denied any wrongdoing
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: or knowledge of Epstein's criminal activity. The former prince settled
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Virginia Roberts civil sexual assault lawsuit in twenty twenty two
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: without admitting liability or wrongdoing, and has repeatedly said he
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: has no recollection of meeting her, despite a widely circulated
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: photograph showing them together. Yeah, I never met her. This
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: photograph's fake. Turns out, the only thing that's fake is
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: your bullshit narrative. Imagine telling somebody that that picture is fake,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: and then imagine being somebody that believes it. YO, like,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: for real? For real? What's it like? Being so gullible?
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Must be rough. Importantly, prosecutors have not accused Andrew of
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: any offense connected to the latest preservation orders. The legal
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: notices are designed to safeguard potentially relevant evidence while investigators
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: continue examining Epstein's wider network. The new Mexico attorney General's
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Office has declined to comment further, citing the ongoing criminal investigation.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: The renewed evidence preservation effort highlights that authorities continue to
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: examine Epstein's associates nearly seven years after his death in
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: a New York jail in twenty nineteen. While the investigation
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: remains active, no new charges have been announced against Prince Andrew,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: whose past relationship with Epstein continues to draw legal and
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: public scrutiny. Well, not enough of either. Not enough legal
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: scrutiny and not enough public scrutiny. But this kind of
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: information is bad for Andrew. This isn't one of those
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: oh it's reputational. This is the preservation of all messages
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: sent that have to do with Andrew when the trip
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: to Zoro Ranch, and remember he lied about it. So
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: we'll see where it all goes. And like usual, when
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: we got some more information, we'll get it added to
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: the catalog. All the information that goes with this episode
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: can be found in a description box.
