Latest / The Epstein Chronicles / Mega Edition: The Sprawling Investigation Into Epstein In The United States Virgin Islands (8/24/26)
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. Finally,
- 0:05Speaker 1: somebody down in the US Virgin Islands is saying what
- 0:09Speaker 1: everybody should be saying, and that is, why is the
- 0:12Speaker 1: US Virgin Islands going after the banks before going after
- 0:17Speaker 1: the local politicians and lawmakers who helped facilitate all of
- 0:21Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein's bullshit. Now you can go after the banks
- 0:24Speaker 1: as well. I'm completely on board with that, But why
- 0:27Speaker 1: are you going to ignore the real five hundred pound
- 0:30Speaker 1: gorilla in the room, which is the fact that Jeffrey
- 0:32Speaker 1: Epstein was allowed to set up shop on this island.
- 0:37Speaker 1: And there's no excuse for it. No matter what anyone
- 0:40Speaker 1: says about how the Virgin Islands was a victim here
- 0:44Speaker 1: and how the Virgin Islands was manipulated by Epstein, I
- 0:48Speaker 1: don't buy any of that. If the banks were enabling
- 0:52Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein, and if the banks were on board with
- 0:55Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein, then so were the politicians at the time
- 0:58Speaker 1: who were running things in the Virgin Island. Now, obviously
- 1:01Speaker 1: that doesn't mean the population of the Virgin Islands. The
- 1:04Speaker 1: people of the Virgin Islands are as sickened by all
- 1:07Speaker 1: of this as we are. But like the rest of us,
- 1:10Speaker 1: they're stuck with shitty politicians and shitty lawmakers who really
- 1:14Speaker 1: don't care about people who have been victimized by scombags
- 1:17Speaker 1: like Jeffrey Epstein. And I've said it from the very
- 1:21Speaker 1: beginning with Denise George and her cash grab here, and
- 1:24Speaker 1: I'll continue to say it forever. Denise George is no
- 1:28Speaker 1: hero here and the Virgin Islands certainly shouldn't have been
- 1:32Speaker 1: entitled to one hundred and five million dollars. Today's article
- 1:37Speaker 1: is from the Virgin Island Daily News headline VII files
- 1:42Speaker 1: lawsuit against JP Morgan in Epstein case while ignoring local
- 1:46Speaker 1: politicians who benefited. And this is an opinion piece that
- 1:51Speaker 1: was sent to the paper by former local politician Janelle
- 1:56Speaker 1: Surraw Dear editor, in real response to the Office of
- 2:01Speaker 1: the Attorney General lawsuit against JP Morgan relative to the
- 2:05Speaker 1: estate of Jeffrey Epstein's lawyers for the Financial Institution noted
- 2:09Speaker 1: the following in their motion on February first to dismiss
- 2:14Speaker 1: Indeed as a law enforcement agency USVII United States, Virgin
- 2:18Speaker 1: Islands had access to much more. Along with the investigative
- 2:22Speaker 1: advantage of physical proximity to Epstein's crimes. USVII did nothing
- 2:28Speaker 1: to stop Epstein during this period, notwithstanding the fact that
- 2:32Speaker 1: he registered with the USVII as a Tier one sex offender.
- 2:36Speaker 1: To the contrary, during the same period, USVI granted Epstein
- 2:40Speaker 1: and his business lucrative privileges and massive tax incentives. And
- 2:46Speaker 1: when everybody was freaking out that Denise George got shown
- 2:49Speaker 1: the door, I just shrugged my shoulders and kept it
- 2:51Speaker 1: moving because I knew that she wasn't some kind of
- 2:55Speaker 1: protagonist on this stage. She wasn't somebody that's out here
- 2:59Speaker 1: trying to get justice. Her whole entire gig was trying
- 3:03Speaker 1: to secure that bag. Folks, from day one, it was
- 3:06Speaker 1: never about holding anyone responsible. It was never about holding
- 3:09Speaker 1: anyone to account. It was about taking some money and running.
- 3:15Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more. Our government is a filing claims
- 3:19Speaker 1: against this financial institution while turning a blind eye to
- 3:22Speaker 1: some local officials who may have personally benefited from mister Epstein.
- 3:28Speaker 1: Let us put a few facts on the table. The
- 3:30Speaker 1: chair of the Economic Development Authority EDA must sign off
- 3:34Speaker 1: on all benefit documents. Who was the chair of the
- 3:38Speaker 1: EDA at that time? Our President, Governor was after the
- 3:42Speaker 1: chair signs the benefit document, it is forwarded to the
- 3:46Speaker 1: governor for his signature. Who was the governor, Governor John P.
- 3:50Speaker 1: DeJong Junior, who was the EDC beneficiary Southern Trust Company
- 3:55Speaker 1: owned by mister Epstein, and who managed said company, the
- 3:59Speaker 1: former first Lady, missus Cecial DeJong. And this has always
- 4:03Speaker 1: been my biggest problem. All of these people who benefited
- 4:06Speaker 1: from Jeffrey Epstein's behavior, they have some audacity, in some
- 4:11Speaker 1: nerve to try and reach their hand in the pot
- 4:13Speaker 1: again and get more money. So Denise George, this whole
- 4:18Speaker 1: entire bullshit sicco investigation that they have going on is
- 4:23Speaker 1: just that bullshit. It was never meant to hold anyone
- 4:26Speaker 1: accountable and instead was nothing more than a pure cash grab.
- 4:32Speaker 1: If we were to dive deeper, there appears to be
- 4:34Speaker 1: a conflict of interest. How could a governor whose wife
- 4:38Speaker 1: manage the operations of Southern Trust Company sign the benefit
- 4:42Speaker 1: document without that being a conflict of interest? By Governor
- 4:46Speaker 1: DeJong signing such, it gives the appearance that he enriched himself. Oh,
- 4:50Speaker 1: it's not an appearance. All of these people down there
- 4:53Speaker 1: in the Virgin Islands that had their handout getting money
- 4:56Speaker 1: from Epstein. They enriched themselves and in turn they helped
- 5:00Speaker 1: Tim abused those girls. Maybe not physically, but they enabled
- 5:04Speaker 1: that abuse by looking the other way. Epstein has contributed
- 5:09Speaker 1: to political campaigns of various senatorial, gubernatorial and congressional candidates.
- 5:15Speaker 1: Within the local Democratic Party. His attorney and local base
- 5:19Speaker 1: in the Virgin Islands were the ones holding major fundraisers
- 5:23Speaker 1: for the incumbent. Unequivocally, a political culture was fostered within
- 5:28Speaker 1: the local Democratic Party of the Virgin Islands that allowed
- 5:32Speaker 1: mister Epstein to remain unchecked in exchange for his sponsorship
- 5:36Speaker 1: and financial contributions. Bing bang boom. That goes right to
- 5:41Speaker 1: the heart of it. Folks, everybody that was benefiting from him,
- 5:46Speaker 1: they were all willing to look the other way continue
- 5:49Speaker 1: to get that money, even though they knew what he
- 5:52Speaker 1: was up to. And down in the Virgin Islands especially,
- 5:56Speaker 1: we've heard from people who work in the airport, who
- 5:59Speaker 1: come who have come forward and said, look, we knew
- 6:02Speaker 1: what was going on, but what can we do about it.
- 6:04Speaker 1: The local government's in on it. We must be honest
- 6:10Speaker 1: about this discussion. This background calls into question the true
- 6:14Speaker 1: reason Governor Bryan fired his attorney General Government House has
- 6:19Speaker 1: said that Brian fired George over concerns of inaction on
- 6:22Speaker 1: local issues at the AG's office. Bryant, in recent interviews
- 6:27Speaker 1: with another publication, confirmed that was part of what led
- 6:31Speaker 1: to her dismissal while seeking distance from the Epstein saga. Now, look,
- 6:36Speaker 1: I don't find mister Brian to be a good guy either.
- 6:39Speaker 1: I find him to be corrupt. I find the whole
- 6:41Speaker 1: entire operation down here, in fact, to be corrupt. And
- 6:45Speaker 1: that's my biggest problem. All of these people are jockeying
- 6:48Speaker 1: down here like there's an actual good guy on the stage,
- 6:51Speaker 1: and there is not. First and foremost, you know, I
- 6:54Speaker 1: can't have an Attorney General that's launching civil suits that
- 6:57Speaker 1: I don't know about. The governor said in the art
- 7:00Speaker 1: What does that even mean? Yes you can, you're the governor.
- 7:03Speaker 1: What the hell do you have to do with a
- 7:05Speaker 1: civil suit that's being brought by a prosecutor. Sit down,
- 7:09Speaker 1: shut up, and collect your stolen money. I, personally, and
- 7:14Speaker 1: I'm sure many other Virgin Islanders alike, don't like our
- 7:18Speaker 1: name being associated with Jeffrey Epstein and child pornography. You know,
- 7:22Speaker 1: why are we going down that rabbit hole? And the
- 7:25Speaker 1: irony to me was, you know, four years ago, everybody
- 7:28Speaker 1: was scrambling not to have been on Jeffrey Epstein's receiving
- 7:31Speaker 1: end of donations. Now we're suing him for the same
- 7:34Speaker 1: dirty money. That seems a little awkward, right, I mean,
- 7:37Speaker 1: that's inconsistent, and I just want us to get away
- 7:40Speaker 1: from that. That's not the light we want to be
- 7:42Speaker 1: seen in. If we never mentioned Jeffrey Epstein again, it
- 7:45Speaker 1: would be good for me. Yeah, it sure would be,
- 7:47Speaker 1: considering you were one of his boys, You scumbag. Now,
- 7:52Speaker 1: don't get it twisted. I'm not saying that there wasn't
- 7:55Speaker 1: scumbaggery by Governor Bryan here. There was, but I think
- 8:01Speaker 1: it is a bridge too far to try and act
- 8:03Speaker 1: like Denise George is some sort of champion. Brian also
- 8:09Speaker 1: said that he never met Epstein, but acknowledged it was
- 8:13Speaker 1: likely that some residents knew what was going on at
- 8:16Speaker 1: Epstein's little Saint James private Island within our local political arena.
- 8:21Speaker 1: We have turned a blind eye to Epstein because we
- 8:24Speaker 1: too benefited from his sex trafficking enterprise. To put it bluntly,
- 8:29Speaker 1: the Virgin Islands of the United States aided and abetted
- 8:33Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein, that's without question. And the author of this article,
- 8:38Speaker 1: like I said, was Janelle Sorah. She is a former educator,
- 8:43Speaker 1: senator and a candidate for lieutenant governor in the US
- 8:47Speaker 1: Virgin Islands. But she summed it up correctly. All of
- 8:51Speaker 1: these people involved here, from Governor Brian, the old politicians
- 8:55Speaker 1: who were in charge of facilitating all of this for Epstein,
- 8:59Speaker 1: they have some of audacity in some nerve to think
- 9:01Speaker 1: that they're going to secure a bag, and the fact
- 9:04Speaker 1: that they've already been able to get one hundred and
- 9:06Speaker 1: five million dollars out of all of this just blows
- 9:09Speaker 1: my mind. What about all of those unnamed girls that
- 9:13Speaker 1: were abused by Epstein that don't have any of the
- 9:15Speaker 1: publicity that some of the more well known survivors have,
- 9:20Speaker 1: so there should be no money left over for them
- 9:22Speaker 1: because the US Virgin Islands had to come in and
- 9:24Speaker 1: get one hundred and five million dollars. I just don't
- 9:28Speaker 1: find that to be right, and I don't think it's
- 9:31Speaker 1: a good look. If you're interested in getting justice, that's
- 9:35Speaker 1: one thing. But if you're going to sit here and
- 9:38Speaker 1: try and secure that bag, and then Thumber knows that
- 9:41Speaker 1: justice at the same time, Well, we're going to have
- 9:43Speaker 1: a problem with that. And that's what's happening down here
- 9:46Speaker 1: in the US Virgin Islands. Everybody knew what was going on.
- 9:50Speaker 1: Everybody knew that Jeffrey Epstein was coming to that island
- 9:53Speaker 1: to molest people, and the local politicians at the time
- 9:57Speaker 1: they didn't do shit to stop it. In fact, they
- 10:00Speaker 1: look the other way while their palm was out. And
- 10:03Speaker 1: now they have the audacity to try and act like
- 10:06Speaker 1: they're entitled to some money. That's just insane to me,
- 10:10Speaker 1: and they shouldn't be entitled to another dime. In fact,
- 10:13Speaker 1: anybody who helped Jeffrey Epstein, anybody who helped enable Jeffrey Epstein,
- 10:18Speaker 1: and anybody who was involved with him on this island previously,
- 10:21Speaker 1: they should be investigated. And if they were involved in
- 10:24Speaker 1: any kind of financial malfeasance or other crimes, they should
- 10:29Speaker 1: be prosecuted. Unfortunately, we all know that's never going to occur.
- 10:33Speaker 1: All right, folks, Well that's gonna do it for this one.
- 10:36Speaker 1: All of the information that goes with this episode can
- 10:39Speaker 1: be found in the description box. When Gilaane Maxwell was
- 10:44Speaker 1: first arrested and she was charged with the crimes that
- 10:47Speaker 1: she was charged with. I said that I doubt that
- 10:50Speaker 1: those will be the only charges that she sees throughout
- 10:54Speaker 1: this prosecution. Well, today we come to find out that
- 10:58Speaker 1: Gilaine Maxwell is investigat, also under investigation in the US
- 11:03Speaker 1: Virgin Islands for her participation in Jeffrey Epstein's criminal enterprise
- 11:09Speaker 1: and sex trafficking ring. Now, if you take a look
- 11:14Speaker 1: at R Kelly and you take a look at Nexium,
- 11:18Speaker 1: you see that both of those groups enterprises have been
- 11:24Speaker 1: charged with RICO. Now you look at all of the
- 11:27Speaker 1: evidence in those cases, and then you look at the
- 11:29Speaker 1: evidence in the Jeffrey Epstein case and the Maxwell case,
- 11:33Speaker 1: and there is zero way you can get to any
- 11:36Speaker 1: point without saying to yourself, how in the hell is
- 11:41Speaker 1: the Gilean Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein enterprise not slapped with
- 11:45Speaker 1: RICO already? Well, my opinion, it's coming, folks. The second
- 11:52Speaker 1: they start naming other co conspirators and other people are
- 11:56Speaker 1: being arrested, well, then they're going to slap them with
- 11:59Speaker 1: the steering charges. In my opinion, especially considering that R.
- 12:04Speaker 1: Kelly was being prosecuted by the Eastern District in New York,
- 12:08Speaker 1: and we know that the SDNY is usually even more
- 12:14Speaker 1: draconian than the Eastern District. So you would think that
- 12:18Speaker 1: the sdn Y would be all over Rico already. But
- 12:23Speaker 1: with Gilean Maxwell being under investigation in the Virgin Islands
- 12:27Speaker 1: as well, in this coming to light, it just lends
- 12:30Speaker 1: more credence to the fact that there are going to
- 12:33Speaker 1: be more charges for her and for whatever co conspirators
- 12:38Speaker 1: they round up. Our article today is from Bloomberg dot Com.
- 12:43Speaker 1: The headline is Gilean Maxwell is also under investigation in
- 12:47Speaker 1: the US Virgin Islands. The author of this article, Tom Metcalf,
- 12:54Speaker 1: Gillane Maxwell is also under investigation by the US Virgin
- 12:57Speaker 1: Islands for her alleged participation and Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking operation.
- 13:03Speaker 1: So that means there is another investigation that's running parallel
- 13:08Speaker 1: to the one that is going on by the Southern District.
- 13:12Speaker 1: This is what I called for New Mexico as well.
- 13:14Speaker 1: It's nice to see that the Virgin Islands are getting
- 13:16Speaker 1: involved here. I would like to see concurrent state investigations
- 13:20Speaker 1: running at the same time as these federal investigations. Let's
- 13:25Speaker 1: throw the book at these people, folks. The Caribbean Territory
- 13:31Speaker 1: gave notice of its investigation in a court filing Friday
- 13:34Speaker 1: in which it seeks to intervene in a lawsuit she
- 13:37Speaker 1: filed against Jeffrey Epstein's estate. The socialite co conspirator, child
- 13:43Speaker 1: abuser all around scusbeg sued earlier this year seeking reimbursement
- 13:47Speaker 1: for legal fees she was incurring, claiming Epstein had repeatedly
- 13:52Speaker 1: promised her that he would support her financially, and we
- 13:56Speaker 1: went over all of that. We've covered that before. Elaine
- 14:00Speaker 1: Maxwell said that Epstein was going to pay for all
- 14:03Speaker 1: of her legal fees no matter what she said. She
- 14:05Speaker 1: had it in rioting blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
- 14:08Speaker 1: So she sued the estate looking for those legal fees.
- 14:13Speaker 1: The Islands Department of Justice is investigating Maxwell's participation in
- 14:17Speaker 1: Epstein's criminal sex trafficking and sexual abuse conduct. According to
- 14:23Speaker 1: the July tenth filing, It is also using the case
- 14:26Speaker 1: to subpoena Maxwell, a process the government said she has
- 14:29Speaker 1: evaded since March. So not only are they that, not
- 14:34Speaker 1: only they have her under investigation, they're going to use
- 14:37Speaker 1: the power of subpoena to make her appear in court
- 14:40Speaker 1: via digitally or whatever it may be, but Glaine Maxwell's screwed, folks.
- 14:45Speaker 1: She's in big trouble here. Is This is a significant
- 14:50Speaker 1: situation for her, and it's only going to complicate things
- 14:53Speaker 1: even more. The government's need to intervene is further fueled
- 14:59Speaker 1: by maxwell inappropriate use of the Virgin Islands courts to
- 15:02Speaker 1: seek payment and reimbursement from the Epstein criminal enterprise, while
- 15:07Speaker 1: she circumvents the service of process of government subpoenas related
- 15:11Speaker 1: to her involvement in that same criminal enterprise. The filing states, Wow,
- 15:17Speaker 1: they're letting her have it here with this one, Boys
- 15:19Speaker 1: and girls, She's gonna She's looking at some serious trouble here.
- 15:23Speaker 1: There's no doubt about it. She has not only the
- 15:28Speaker 1: SDNY digging deep, but now in the Virgin Islands it's
- 15:33Speaker 1: no longer a matter of just civil this is a
- 15:36Speaker 1: criminal matter. And they have subpoena power here just like
- 15:40Speaker 1: any other district, and they can call whoever they want
- 15:43Speaker 1: to come and testify. So it's gonna be very interesting
- 15:47Speaker 1: to see where this ends up. It's gonna be very
- 15:49Speaker 1: interesting to see just how hard the Virgin Islands goes
- 15:54Speaker 1: after a prosecution here. Epstein was a resident of the
- 15:59Speaker 1: Virgin Islands for more than twenty years and own two islands,
- 16:03Speaker 1: Little Saint James and Great Saint James, which the government
- 16:06Speaker 1: said it's seeking to claim as part of its legal effort.
- 16:09Speaker 1: And there is the rub folks. The Virgin Islands and
- 16:15Speaker 1: their elected officials played a huge part in facilitating Jeffrey
- 16:19Speaker 1: Epstein's crimes by giving him all sorts of permits for
- 16:24Speaker 1: his banks, giving him all sorts of leeway down there.
- 16:28Speaker 1: And then Denise George, who is the Attorney General now
- 16:32Speaker 1: down there, thinks that she is going to seize these
- 16:36Speaker 1: islands and that money is going to go to the
- 16:40Speaker 1: Virgin Island's bank account. Sorry, that is not going to
- 16:44Speaker 1: work for me. Anything that's seized in regards to Jeffrey
- 16:48Speaker 1: Epstein goes to the estate and then is dispersed to
- 16:52Speaker 1: the survivors. No governments should get a dollar of it,
- 16:55Speaker 1: No politicians should get a dollar of it, And certainly
- 16:59Speaker 1: the Virgin Islands, who couldn't even be bothered to regulate
- 17:03Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein in the first place, they most certainly shouldn't
- 17:07Speaker 1: get any of it. David Caddy, a lawyer representing Maxwell
- 17:12Speaker 1: on the Virgin Islands, didn't immediately return a call an
- 17:15Speaker 1: email seeking comment about the investigation. Mark Cohen, a lawyer
- 17:19Speaker 1: for Maxwell in her criminal case in New York, also
- 17:22Speaker 1: didn't immediately respond to request for comment. Yeah, and I
- 17:26Speaker 1: would be surprised if we hear them with the comment
- 17:30Speaker 1: if they answer with the comment, considering how wide and
- 17:37Speaker 1: long range all of these charges are now, so the
- 17:40Speaker 1: lawyers in New York are going to have to contend
- 17:42Speaker 1: with what's going on in the Virgin Islands as well,
- 17:45Speaker 1: and this could become a really, really, really interesting situation. Maxwell,
- 17:50Speaker 1: the daughter of late British publishing tycoon Robert Maxwell, faces
- 17:54Speaker 1: multiple charges in the US, including allegations that in the
- 17:57Speaker 1: nineteen nineties she lured girls at as young as fourteen
- 18:01Speaker 1: for sexual encounters with Epstein, her former associate and lover
- 18:05Speaker 1: and co conspirator and business partner and partner running the
- 18:10Speaker 1: blackmail ring. It goes on and on, Okay, Gilaine Maxwell
- 18:13Speaker 1: was not a victim. She was not taken advantage of
- 18:15Speaker 1: by Epstein. Gilaine Maxwell had a leadership role. Gilaine Maxwell
- 18:20Speaker 1: deserves to face every single charge that the government feels
- 18:25Speaker 1: like they can make stick on her. That's right, every
- 18:27Speaker 1: last one. She has been in US custody since her
- 18:35Speaker 1: arrest this month in New Hampshire. Epstein died last year
- 18:38Speaker 1: in a federal jail in Manhattan while awaiting trial on
- 18:40Speaker 1: federal sex trafficking charges. Maxwell fifty eight is due to
- 18:45Speaker 1: enter her plea in New York on Tuesday. Her legal
- 18:48Speaker 1: team has requested she'd be freed on five million dollars
- 18:51Speaker 1: bill as she awaits her trial, but prosecutors have called
- 18:54Speaker 1: her at extreme flight risk. Yeah, you think an extreme
- 18:56Speaker 1: flight risk passports, connections all over the world, enough money
- 19:01Speaker 1: to walk into a realty office and put down you know,
- 19:04Speaker 1: a million fazzles to get a house. Yeah, she's not
- 19:08Speaker 1: a flight risk. She should just be given bail. Let
- 19:10Speaker 1: her go hang out in the lapses of luxury at home,
- 19:13Speaker 1: just post up, watch some TV, and you know, wait
- 19:17Speaker 1: for the trial to start. Absolutely not. She needs to
- 19:20Speaker 1: be remanded into the custody of the federal government and
- 19:23Speaker 1: that is where she needs to stay for the rest
- 19:25Speaker 1: of her life. Ariel Smith, Assistant Attorney General in the
- 19:30Speaker 1: Virgin Islands, didn't immediately respond to a phone call and
- 19:33Speaker 1: an email requesting comment, and I doubt that they will
- 19:37Speaker 1: when it comes to stuff like this. It's very rare
- 19:40Speaker 1: that prosecutors have anything to say. So you know for
- 19:44Speaker 1: a fact, though, that they're working double time to dig
- 19:50Speaker 1: up whatever they can to tig e Lane Maxwell to
- 19:53Speaker 1: this criminal enterprise. And now that we have these two
- 19:58Speaker 1: investigations cracking off in two different locations in the United States,
- 20:02Speaker 1: two different states where these girls, I mean a territory
- 20:06Speaker 1: in a state where these girls were trafficked over state
- 20:09Speaker 1: lines and international lines for sex trafficking, how is that
- 20:12Speaker 1: any different from what say R Kelly was doing. R Kelly, though,
- 20:17Speaker 1: got slapped with RICO and yet here we are still
- 20:20Speaker 1: waiting for Jeffrey Epstein and Gilaine Maxwell and their associates
- 20:25Speaker 1: to be slapped with a RICO charge. Hopefully it's coming,
- 20:30Speaker 1: and hopefully this is a prelude to that, because once
- 20:36Speaker 1: we hear that word thrown around in this case, once
- 20:38Speaker 1: we hear that Gilaine Maxwell is being charged with racketeering,
- 20:44Speaker 1: and once we hear that there are other co conspirators
- 20:46Speaker 1: who have been arrested who are part of the criminal conspiracy,
- 20:50Speaker 1: that's when I think we'll start hearing a lot more
- 20:52Speaker 1: about RICO charges and the significance of what's coming down
- 20:56Speaker 1: the pipe for these people, because I've seen a lot
- 20:59Speaker 1: of people talking about all these charges aren't enough, and
- 21:02Speaker 1: I agree one hundred percent the initial charges most certainly
- 21:05Speaker 1: aren't enough. They're only for a short period of time
- 21:08Speaker 1: for what Gilan Maxwell was really doing over a long
- 21:11Speaker 1: period of time. Right, So when I say initial charges,
- 21:15Speaker 1: I have always thought, and I still remain thinking this way,
- 21:18Speaker 1: that these are just the initial charges that we're going
- 21:22Speaker 1: to see. We're definitely going to see the case expand,
- 21:26Speaker 1: the scope of the case broaden, and we are going
- 21:29Speaker 1: to definitely see co conspirators charge with other crimes. The
- 21:33Speaker 1: question remains who, what and when. If you like to

- 22:02Speaker 1: and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. We've talked a
- 22:06Speaker 1: lot recently about what's going on in the US Virgin
- 22:10Speaker 1: Islands and the lawsuits that are making their way through
- 22:13Speaker 1: the system. Well, we got an update on that lawsuit
- 22:17Speaker 1: that has been filed by the United States Virgin Islands
- 22:20Speaker 1: against JP Morgan, and Judge Rakoff has said now that
- 22:25Speaker 1: he's going to allow them to amend their complaint. So
- 22:29Speaker 1: let's dive into this article from the Saint Thomas source
- 22:33Speaker 1: and let's get caught up headline VII may add charge
- 22:37Speaker 1: in JP Morgan suit over Epstein dealings, judge rules. This
- 22:41Speaker 1: article was authored by Seeing Cobb. The VI Attorney General's
- 22:47Speaker 1: Office may amend its complaint against JP Morgan Chase to
- 22:51Speaker 1: add a claim that the bank obstructed enforcement of the
- 22:54Speaker 1: Federal Trafficking Victims Protection Act in its business dealings with
- 22:59Speaker 1: a late disgraced financier, pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The judge overseeing
- 23:03Speaker 1: the case ruled on Monday, and that's the right ruling
- 23:07Speaker 1: in my opinion, one hundred percent the right ruling. You
- 23:10Speaker 1: have to let them amend the lawsuit if new evidence
- 23:14Speaker 1: has been provided or if new information has become available, right,
- 23:18Speaker 1: And that's what the judge did. In a related order,
- 23:21Speaker 1: US District Judge Judd S. Raykoff rejected a bid by
- 23:25Speaker 1: one time JP Morgan executive James jeff Staley, faced with
- 23:30Speaker 1: a third party lawsuit by his former employer, to hold
- 23:33Speaker 1: him accountable for damages should the plaintiffs prevail to have
- 23:37Speaker 1: his case heard separately. And we talked about this yesterday.
- 23:40Speaker 1: The judge was calling him a whiner and said there's
- 23:43Speaker 1: no way that he's separating the case. Staley handled Epstein's
- 23:47Speaker 1: fifty plus JP Morgan accounts and is at the center
- 23:51Speaker 1: of the Virgin Island government's complaint and another brought against
- 23:55Speaker 1: the bank by anonymous Epstein survivor, Jane do Number one,
- 23:59Speaker 1: who also filed suit against Deutsche Bank, where Epstein took
- 24:03Speaker 1: his business after Staley moved to Blue Mountain Capital in
- 24:07Speaker 1: twenty thirteen and then to Barclays Bank in twenty and fifteen.
- 24:12Speaker 1: So why does Jeffrey Epstein need fifty accounts? I mean,
- 24:15Speaker 1: shouldn't one or two be quite sufficient? But you need
- 24:18Speaker 1: fifty of them? What were you up to, Jeff Epstein?
- 24:21Speaker 1: And what was your buddy Jeff Staley doing with you?
- 24:24Speaker 1: The cases have been consolidated for trial purposes by Raycoff,
- 24:28Speaker 1: and in Monday's ruling, he dismissed Staley's claims that the
- 24:32Speaker 1: court's deadlines for discovery and the trial date would create
- 24:35Speaker 1: an undo burden. However, he did modify the pre trial schedule,
- 24:40Speaker 1: adding an additional seven weeks for discovery by Staley's attorneys
- 24:43Speaker 1: to July eighteenth, But he's not moving the trial date.
- 24:47Speaker 1: Raycoff has been pretty adamant about that. He wants this
- 24:50Speaker 1: trial to kick off on October twenty third, and he
- 24:53Speaker 1: doesn't want to hear any bs about it. And for Staley,
- 24:56Speaker 1: this guy has some nerve. He's had all of these
- 24:59Speaker 1: years to prepare or tangible defense for when the walls
- 25:02Speaker 1: come closing in. And this is all the guy can
- 25:04Speaker 1: come up with. Oh, I need some more time, lafungul
- 25:07Speaker 1: more time. You've had plenty, and you have high powered
- 25:10Speaker 1: lawyers all over the place. Have them take care of it.
- 25:13Speaker 1: That's basically what the judge told them. The trial date
- 25:16Speaker 1: of October twenty third already extended six weeks from the
- 25:20Speaker 1: original date of September fifth to accommodate Staley remains unchanged.
- 25:25Speaker 1: Rakeoff ruled, so he gave them that little bit in
- 25:27Speaker 1: the beginning, And of course it's never enough for a
- 25:30Speaker 1: guy like Staley. Let's kick the can down the road
- 25:32Speaker 1: a little bit more and let's try and get some
- 25:34Speaker 1: more time to figure out a way to get off
- 25:37Speaker 1: the hook. That's all it's about, right, more time, more time,
- 25:40Speaker 1: more time. And you see it with these rich people
- 25:43Speaker 1: all the time. Anytime they're in trouble, somehow miraculously they
- 25:47Speaker 1: get their case suspended, or it's going to be later
- 25:50Speaker 1: on down the road, whatever it might be. But this
- 25:53Speaker 1: time Staley has run out of real estate and Rakeoff
- 25:56Speaker 1: ain't having it. JP Morgan had opposed the VI government's
- 26:01Speaker 1: motion to amend its complaint, which Racoff had allowed to
- 26:04Speaker 1: proceed on one count that JP Morgan Chase knowingly benefited
- 26:09Speaker 1: from participating in a sex trafficking venture in violation of
- 26:14Speaker 1: the Federal Trafficking Victims Protection Act or TVPA, in an
- 26:18Speaker 1: order March twentieth regarding the bank's motion to dismiss the cases.
- 26:23Speaker 1: So there were other accusations made, but after hearing the
- 26:27Speaker 1: preliminaries and going over the case, Judge Rakoff decided that
- 26:32Speaker 1: only this count would proceed. But this is a biggie here, folks,
- 26:36Speaker 1: is a big count. Now. Do I want the full
- 26:39Speaker 1: monty and a million counts dropped on these suns of bitches?
- 26:41Speaker 1: Of course, but at least this very serious charge hung around.
- 26:46Speaker 1: In his ruling Monday, Raykoff agreed with the Bank that
- 26:49Speaker 1: the government could have included the obstruction charge when it
- 26:53Speaker 1: filed its initial complaint on December twenty seventh, and then
- 26:56Speaker 1: amended that complaint on January tenth. The same time, However,
- 27:01Speaker 1: there does not appear to be a good reason to
- 27:04Speaker 1: deny the USVII the leave that it seeks, the judge wrote,
- 27:08Speaker 1: noting that many of JP Morgan's arguments simply rehash points
- 27:12Speaker 1: it made against Doe's obstruction claim, and that the usvi's
- 27:16Speaker 1: other claims which the court rejected when it denied in
- 27:20Speaker 1: part the bank's motion to dismiss the cases. So look,
- 27:25Speaker 1: they wanted to go back and rehash their arguments as
- 27:28Speaker 1: to why this shouldn't happen, but Judge Raykoff just wasn't
- 27:31Speaker 1: having it. And now JP Morgan and Jess Staley are
- 27:35Speaker 1: going to be tethered together throughout this whole entire ordeal.
- 27:39Speaker 1: The usvii's delay in pleading an obstruction claim did indeed
- 27:43Speaker 1: deny JP Morgan an opportunity to attack that claim in
- 27:48Speaker 1: its motion to dismiss, But JP Morgan's response to this
- 27:51Speaker 1: motion suggests that it would not have made any credible
- 27:55Speaker 1: arguments that were not already before the court, Rakoff ruled.
- 27:59Speaker 1: So what he's saying, even if they made these arguments
- 28:02Speaker 1: to him, and this was submitted at the beginning, he
- 28:06Speaker 1: still would have ruled in favor of the USVII government
- 28:10Speaker 1: and allow them to amend their complaint for the foregoing reasons.
- 28:15Speaker 1: The Court hereby grants the usvi's motion to amend its complaint.
- 28:20Speaker 1: The usvii's second amended complaint will hereafter be the operative
- 28:24Speaker 1: complaint in this case, he wrote. As for Staley, Raykov said,
- 28:29Speaker 1: he essential to the allegations against JP Morgan, and therefore
- 28:33Speaker 1: it makes no sense to hear the bank suit against
- 28:36Speaker 1: him separately. One hundred percent. Let's just get it all
- 28:40Speaker 1: tied up in a nice little bow, and let's get
- 28:42Speaker 1: things moving. And you know what would be real nice
- 28:45Speaker 1: if we saw some criminal complaints come out of all
- 28:47Speaker 1: of this. Do I have any faith that we will
- 28:49Speaker 1: see that? No, I don't, but it would be nice,
- 28:52Speaker 1: right Imagine somebody actually being held responsible for their role
- 28:56Speaker 1: in Jeffrey Epstein's criminal enterprise. Boy, that would be a change.
- 29:01Speaker 1: Though not always identified by name, Staley is a key
- 29:04Speaker 1: figure in the allegations made in the plaintiff and co
- 29:07Speaker 1: plaintiff's complaints, as well as the sole defendant named in
- 29:11Speaker 1: the third party complaint filed by the defendant, JP Morgan
- 29:14Speaker 1: Chase Bank North America. Ray Cooff wrote, regardless of any
- 29:19Speaker 1: putative severance, he and the facts relating to him will
- 29:23Speaker 1: therefore be a prominent focus of the trial of the
- 29:27Speaker 1: underlying case between plaintiff Jane do One co plaintiff, the
- 29:31Speaker 1: Government of the United States Virgin Islands, and JP Morgan.
- 29:35Speaker 1: Under these circumstances, it would make no sense to sever
- 29:38Speaker 1: the case against Staley, the judge ruled. He also noted
- 29:42Speaker 1: that Staley is represented by a four hundred attorney law firm,
- 29:46Speaker 1: Williams and Connolly of Washington, d C. Recognized as one
- 29:50Speaker 1: of the world's premier litigation firms, and expressed doubt that
- 29:54Speaker 1: the timeline will present the burden. Indeed, the former CEO's
- 29:58Speaker 1: lead attorney is Brendan's Sullivan Junior, who represented Lieutenant Colonel
- 30:03Speaker 1: Oliver North in the wake of the Iran Contra scandal
- 30:07Speaker 1: of the late nineteen eighties, as well as the lacrosse
- 30:10Speaker 1: players in the Duke University rape case, among many other
- 30:14Speaker 1: high profile cases. Both DOE and the VI government alleged
- 30:18Speaker 1: that Staley enjoyed a profound friendship with Epstein, a convicted
- 30:22Speaker 1: sex offender pedophile whose main residence was Little Saint James,
- 30:26Speaker 1: his private estate located just off Saint Thomas. According to
- 30:30Speaker 1: court documents, that relationship continued up until Epstein's death by
- 30:35Speaker 1: apparent suicide in August twenty nineteen in his New York
- 30:38Speaker 1: City jail cell, where he was being held on federal
- 30:42Speaker 1: human trafficking charges. Those charges stemmed from an investigation into
- 30:47Speaker 1: Epstein's controversial two thousand and eight non prosecution agreement with
- 30:52Speaker 1: federal prosecutors in Florida, under which he pled guilty to
- 30:56Speaker 1: state charges of soliciting and procuring a minor for prostitution,
- 31:01Speaker 1: despite evidence that dozens more girls were involved. Yeah, literally dozens.
- 31:06Speaker 1: That's not hyperbole either, dozens more girls. But somehow that's
- 31:09Speaker 1: the only charge that Jeffrey Epstein gets hit with. Doe
- 31:14Speaker 1: had also sought to have Staley's case severed from the
- 31:17Speaker 1: rest on the grounds that JP Morgan's true reason for
- 31:20Speaker 1: bringing Staley into the lawsuit is to harass and intimidate
- 31:24Speaker 1: not only Jane Doe, but also other Epstein victims by
- 31:28Speaker 1: forcing her to share private medical records and her most
- 31:31Speaker 1: intimate communications with one of her abusers. However, Rakoff found that,
- 31:37Speaker 1: aside from the fact that JP Morgan unequivocally denies this
- 31:41Speaker 1: unsupported accusation about Wyat suits Staley, Jane Doe one cannot
- 31:46Speaker 1: have been blind to the fact that, in bringing a
- 31:49Speaker 1: lawsuit that accuses JP Morgan of facilitating mister Epstein's alleged
- 31:53Speaker 1: sex trafficking of her and others, sensitive matters would necessarily
- 31:59Speaker 1: have to be the subject of discovery. He said. The
- 32:02Speaker 1: proper way to handle this is by making such discovery
- 32:05Speaker 1: subject to be confidential treatment. And indeed, JP Morgan represents
- 32:10Speaker 1: that it has therefore agreed to every request to make
- 32:14Speaker 1: matters confidential made by Jane Doe. Rakeoff ruled both JP
- 32:19Speaker 1: Morgan and deutsch Bank have denied wrongdoing, with JP Morgan
- 32:23Speaker 1: stating that the VI government's claims against it strained credulity. Well,
- 32:28Speaker 1: come October twenty third, we'll see about that, especially now
- 32:31Speaker 1: that Judge Rakeoff has allowed the amended complaint to go through.
- 32:36Speaker 1: And now with that fact, not only are they facing
- 32:40Speaker 1: the charge of benefiting from Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking enterprise,
- 32:45Speaker 1: they're also facing a complaint of obstruction. So that's where
- 32:49Speaker 1: things stand as of now, and I'm sure we're going
- 32:52Speaker 1: to get a lot more before October twenty third, and
- 32:55Speaker 1: when we do, it'll be added right to the catalog
- 32:58Speaker 1: and we'll keep it rolling, all right, everybody that's gonna
- 33:01Speaker 1: do it for this one. All of the information that
- 33:04Speaker 1: goes with the episode can be found in the description box.
- 33:07Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
- 33:12Speaker 1: Today we're gonna talk a little bit more about Les
- 33:14Speaker 1: Wexner and what's going on down in the United States
- 33:18Speaker 1: Virgin Islands. We know that Les Wexner has been subpoenaed
- 33:23Speaker 1: and he tried to dodge those subpoenas by having his
- 33:26Speaker 1: security run interference when the process server showed up. Well,
- 33:31Speaker 1: the judge decided, after a request from the prosecutors, that
- 33:35Speaker 1: Les Wexner could be subpoenad via mail. And that's something
- 33:39Speaker 1: that we don't see all that often. Usually when you're
- 33:42Speaker 1: getting served, you have to have the process server hand
- 33:45Speaker 1: you those papers. But when you're playing games like Les
- 33:49Speaker 1: Wexner or the way Glaine Maxwell was, these judges they're
- 33:53Speaker 1: not gonna let you get away with it. Eventually it's
- 33:56Speaker 1: gonna come to the point where they've had enough and
- 33:59Speaker 1: they'll take it to the next step and let you
- 34:01Speaker 1: get subpoena via mail. We've seen it before and I'm
- 34:05Speaker 1: sure we're going to see it again. So let's get
- 34:08Speaker 1: into this article from Inside Edition and let's see what
- 34:11Speaker 1: Chris Spargo has for us. Headline Jeffrey Epstein's staff who
- 34:16Speaker 1: say pedophile had underage girl on island and less Wexner
- 34:20Speaker 1: subpoena in the JP Morgan case. And the staff that
- 34:24Speaker 1: they're talking about here are the island managers and their
- 34:28Speaker 1: names are Miles and Kathy Alexander. All Right, onto the article,
- 34:34Speaker 1: and this article was originally published on February twenty first
- 34:37Speaker 1: of twenty twenty three. In a civil lawsuit against JP
- 34:42Speaker 1: Morgan Chase Bank, lawyers for the Virgin Islands have also
- 34:45Speaker 1: issued a subpoena for les Wexner, requesting information directly related
- 34:50Speaker 1: to the billionaire businessman's work with Epstein. Les Wexner may
- 34:55Speaker 1: finally be forced to reveal new details about his relationship
- 34:59Speaker 1: with Jeffrey Epstein. I highly doubt it. I'm sure he's
- 35:02Speaker 1: going to have to release some information, but it's going
- 35:06Speaker 1: to be curated. You really think that Less Wexner, the
- 35:09Speaker 1: King of Columbus, Ohio, is going to come into this
- 35:12Speaker 1: ill prepared without a billion dollar legal team. You already
- 35:16Speaker 1: know that they're working behind the scenes to mitigate the
- 35:19Speaker 1: fallout for their client, Les Wexner, in a civil lawsuit
- 35:23Speaker 1: against JP Morgan Chase Bank, lawyers for the government of
- 35:26Speaker 1: the US Virgin Islands have issued a subpoena for Wexner,
- 35:30Speaker 1: requesting information directly related to the billionaire businessman's work with
- 35:34Speaker 1: Epstein and why he ended his professional relationship with the
- 35:39Speaker 1: convicted pedophile. Well, he'll tell you it has to do
- 35:42Speaker 1: with Epstein stealing money from him. But I've always said
- 35:45Speaker 1: that was the cover that was put in place from
- 35:48Speaker 1: the very beginning, all right, So if you ever get nailed,
- 35:51Speaker 1: we'll say that you stole money from me, and that'll
- 35:53Speaker 1: be my cover. Pretty simple, right, but effective. Obviously effective.
- 35:58Speaker 1: Considering less wex Wexner has not been called to the
- 36:01Speaker 1: carpet yet. Of particular interest to prosecutors is a payment
- 36:06Speaker 1: JP Morgan allegedly processed from an Epstein charitable organization Enhanced Education,
- 36:13Speaker 1: to Wexner in the amount of one hundred twenty four thousand,
- 36:16Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty two dollars, according to a recent
- 36:20Speaker 1: court motion filed by the lawyer for the Government of
- 36:23Speaker 1: the Virgin Islands. Inside addition, obtained a copy of that
- 36:27Speaker 1: motion and the subpoena prosecutor is issued for Wexner the
- 36:32Speaker 1: less Wexner subpoena. Lawyers for the government submitted the motion
- 36:36Speaker 1: in hopes of getting the judge to issue an order
- 36:39Speaker 1: allowing service of the subpoena to Wexner by certified mail
- 36:43Speaker 1: after his staff members allegedly blocked a court server from
- 36:46Speaker 1: delivering the document to Wexner on multiple occasions. And this
- 36:50Speaker 1: is a tactic that's used by rich people the world over.
- 36:53Speaker 1: If they don't want to get served, they'll just retreat
- 36:55Speaker 1: back into their mansion. It's private property. They'll have their
- 36:59Speaker 1: guards patrol the grounds and they won't let anybody on
- 37:02Speaker 1: the grounds, and you'll have to play a game of
- 37:04Speaker 1: cat and mouse, and hopefully you catch them when they're
- 37:07Speaker 1: going to Starbucks or maybe when they're headed out for
- 37:09Speaker 1: their alfalfa sandwich or whatever the hell these weirdos eat.
- 37:14Speaker 1: The filing claims that attempts to serve Wexner in person
- 37:17Speaker 1: on February eighth and February eleventh at his home in
- 37:20Speaker 1: Ohio failed after a court server was allegedly refused access
- 37:25Speaker 1: to the eighty five year old founder of l Brands.
- 37:28Speaker 1: A security guard allegedly would not allow the server to
- 37:31Speaker 1: access or communicate with Wexner on the first attempt, says
- 37:35Speaker 1: the filing, and the security guard allegedly prevented service again
- 37:40Speaker 1: during that second visit, according to the motion, motion to
- 37:44Speaker 1: serve Les Wexner by certified mail. An attempt to serve
- 37:48Speaker 1: Wexner at the offices of his charitable foundation also failed
- 37:52Speaker 1: on February eighth, says the court document, after the server
- 37:56Speaker 1: was blocked from physical entry and was told via intercom
- 37:59Speaker 1: that Wexat was not present and only came into the
- 38:02Speaker 1: foundation two or three times per year. Now, why would
- 38:06Speaker 1: somebody like Les Wexner be trying to avoid this? Why
- 38:09Speaker 1: wouldn't he just go and handle his business like any
- 38:13Speaker 1: of us would have to. Oh, that's right, special treatment,
- 38:16Speaker 1: I forgot. Wexner is being asked in the subpoena to
- 38:20Speaker 1: provide the prosecutors with all documents reflecting all communications with
- 38:25Speaker 1: or concerning Epstein, including, but not limited to all communications
- 38:31Speaker 1: regarding services or advice provided to you by Epstein and
- 38:35Speaker 1: your termination of Epstein, all documents reflecting or concerning all
- 38:41Speaker 1: communications with JP Morgan, Chase regarding Epstein, all documents reflecting
- 38:46Speaker 1: concerning Epstein, and introductions or payments to women from massages
- 38:52Speaker 1: or for modeling services, or regarding trafficking or sexual abuse
- 38:57Speaker 1: of women by Epstein. Lawyers for the government are also
- 39:02Speaker 1: hoping to get more information about communications between Wexner and
- 39:06Speaker 1: JP Morgan from two thousand and eight, the year that
- 39:09Speaker 1: Wexner ended his professional relationship with Epstein. According to the motion,
- 39:13Speaker 1: and again, that whole entire thing was a cover the
- 39:17Speaker 1: whole He stole money from me, the whole entire Oh,
- 39:21Speaker 1: I had no idea what Epstein was up to. All
- 39:24Speaker 1: of that was bull. You don't give somebody the keys
- 39:26Speaker 1: to the kingdom the way less Wexner gave Jeffrey Epstein
- 39:29Speaker 1: the keys to the kingdom if you don't know what's
- 39:31Speaker 1: going on. And not only that, but Epstein used those
- 39:35Speaker 1: keys to the kingdom to further his criminal enterprise and
- 39:38Speaker 1: to abuse women, all under the pretext that they're going
- 39:42Speaker 1: to get a job working for Victoria's secret It's frustrating
- 39:46Speaker 1: because this is all common knowledge to those of us
- 39:49Speaker 1: who have been following this for all of these years,
- 39:51Speaker 1: because something should have been done about this a very
- 39:54Speaker 1: long time ago. After being unable to serve Wexner, prosecutors
- 39:59Speaker 1: attempted to facility militate service through his attorneys, says the motion,
- 40:03Speaker 1: but those efforts failed as well. According to Singer, lawyers
- 40:07Speaker 1: for Wexner at the Ohio firm of Zeger, Tiggis and
- 40:10Speaker 1: Little did not respond to requests for comment. I mean,
- 40:14Speaker 1: why would they. They have nothing to say here. If
- 40:16Speaker 1: they just keep silent and keep it moving, nothing's ever
- 40:20Speaker 1: going to happen to less Wexner. Wexner told members of
- 40:23Speaker 1: his foundation that Epstein agreed to step back from the
- 40:26Speaker 1: management out of our personal finances in two thousand and seven,
- 40:30Speaker 1: shortly after prosecutors in Palm Beach County drafted a fifty
- 40:34Speaker 1: three page indictment following an investigation into claims that Epstein
- 40:38Speaker 1: solicited underage girls for prostitution. That indictment was never filed
- 40:44Speaker 1: in court, and Epstein ultimately agreed to plead guilty to
- 40:47Speaker 1: one count of solicitation of prostitution and one count of
- 40:52Speaker 1: solicitation of a minor four prostitution in two thousand and
- 40:56Speaker 1: eight as part of a deal with prosecutors. Wexner wrote
- 41:01Speaker 1: in a twenty nineteen letter to members of the Foundation
- 41:04Speaker 1: obtained by Inside Edition Digital that after Epstein stepped down,
- 41:09Speaker 1: we discovered that he had misappropriated vast sums of money
- 41:12Speaker 1: from me and my family. At that time, with his
- 41:16Speaker 1: credibility and our trust in him destroyed, Wexner said that
- 41:20Speaker 1: he immediately severed ties with Epstein. It's very convenient that
- 41:24Speaker 1: they found that money right at the time where Epstein
- 41:27Speaker 1: was under the microscope. Does anybody believe that? Honestly? Do
- 41:31Speaker 1: any of you believe that out there? It's all a
- 41:34Speaker 1: cover story, And I don't hear anybody else even talking
- 41:36Speaker 1: about that. The fact that he gave Epstein this money
- 41:40Speaker 1: with the intent of saying that the money was pilfered
- 41:44Speaker 1: if shit went south is a pretty standard move when
- 41:48Speaker 1: you're talking about people like this. It's all about plausible deniability, right, Oh, yeah,
- 41:53Speaker 1: we were friends. Oh he worked for me, but that's
- 41:55Speaker 1: as far as it went. But the reality is, we
- 41:58Speaker 1: know that's not the truth. Wexner is not the only
- 42:02Speaker 1: one of Epstein's former associates being asked to provide documents
- 42:06Speaker 1: to lawyers for the Virgin Islands. Miles and Kathy Alexander,
- 42:10Speaker 1: the couple who managed Epstein's private island Little Saint James
- 42:14Speaker 1: from nineteen ninety nine to two thousand and seven, have
- 42:17Speaker 1: also been subpoenaed in the case and asked to sit
- 42:20Speaker 1: for a deposition. According to subpoenas obtained by Inside Edition Digital,
- 42:25Speaker 1: Kathy and Miles are both being asked to provide lawyers
- 42:29Speaker 1: with documents communications and agreements related to your employment by
- 42:35Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein, including but not limited to, one employment and
- 42:39Speaker 1: severance agreement, two non disclosure agreements, three all payments in
- 42:45Speaker 1: any form received from or on behalf of Jeffrey Epstein
- 42:50Speaker 1: for all communications with Jeffrey Epstein. Gallaine Maxwell, Bella Kleine,
- 42:55Speaker 1: Daphne Wallace, Harry Beller, Leslie Groff, Sarah Kelle, Sarah Kensington
- 43:01Speaker 1: or Sarah Vickers all the same person by the way,
- 43:04Speaker 1: Erica Keller, Hall's Richard d conn And or Darren k
- 43:08Speaker 1: Endyke And that's basically the inner circle right there, and
- 43:12Speaker 1: all of the people that were helping him make moves
- 43:14Speaker 1: financially or otherwise Miles Alexander subpoena. Kathy said in a
- 43:20Speaker 1: twenty eleven interview with Daily Mail that she had been
- 43:23Speaker 1: suspicious about the ages of the girls who arrived on
- 43:26Speaker 1: the island from the start. I saw some girls who
- 43:29Speaker 1: I thought were very young, looking about sixteen or seventeen easily,
- 43:34Speaker 1: and it bugged me because I have a daughter, and
- 43:37Speaker 1: although she was in her twenties, I didn't like the
- 43:39Speaker 1: idea that another woman's child was in that situation. I
- 43:42Speaker 1: didn't feel comfortable about it, Kathy said in that interview. Yeah,
- 43:46Speaker 1: but you kept working for him, right. You didn't do
- 43:48Speaker 1: anything to stop it, did you. They looked like they
- 43:51Speaker 1: had stepped out of an underwear catalog. They walked around
- 43:54Speaker 1: with very few clothes on, or lounged around by the
- 43:57Speaker 1: pool with nothing on. It was like that most of
- 44:00Speaker 1: the time. I was concerned about their ages. A few
- 44:03Speaker 1: of them looked very young, and I couldn't help but
- 44:05Speaker 1: wonder if their mothers knew where they were. Now, keep
- 44:09Speaker 1: this in mind, folks, when we're talking about all of
- 44:11Speaker 1: the people who visited this island. This was commonplace on
- 44:15Speaker 1: the island. These girls lounging around top lists, no clothes,
- 44:19Speaker 1: on scantily clad and if everybody else is recognizing that
- 44:23Speaker 1: these girls are very young looking, you need to tell
- 44:26Speaker 1: me that none of these bozos who went to the
- 44:29Speaker 1: island were hip to it. Of course they were, but
- 44:32Speaker 1: guess what, they didn't care. And the only time they
- 44:35Speaker 1: ever care is when they get exposed. Her husband, Miles,
- 44:39Speaker 1: said in the same interview that he had actual proof
- 44:42Speaker 1: of one underage girl being on the island. One was
- 44:45Speaker 1: definitely underage, but she had a letter of consent from
- 44:48Speaker 1: her parents and was under the guardianship of a model agency,
- 44:53Speaker 1: said Miles, folks, I don't know how much more I
- 44:56Speaker 1: can stress the fact that these modeling agencies are not
- 45:00Speaker 1: good for your children. There is not enough gold on
- 45:02Speaker 1: this planet that you could give me to leave my
- 45:05Speaker 1: child in the care of any modeling agency anywhere in
- 45:09Speaker 1: the world. He also said in the interview that this
- 45:13Speaker 1: underage girl arrived on the island during his first day
- 45:16Speaker 1: working as the manager of the Little Saint James property. Now,
- 45:20Speaker 1: if that's your first day, why did you stick around?
- 45:23Speaker 1: If I show up to work and there's an underage
- 45:26Speaker 1: girl running around with a bunch of other scantily clad women,
- 45:29Speaker 1: your boys getting on the first boat off the island
- 45:33Speaker 1: and getting out of Dodge and reporting what he saw.
- 45:36Speaker 1: The attorneys for the Virgin Islands are assuing JP Morgan,
- 45:39Speaker 1: arguing in court papers that the bank helped fund and
- 45:43Speaker 1: conceal Epstein's alleged sec trafficking ring. JP Morgan knew, including
- 45:48Speaker 1: at the highest level of the bank, that Epstein was
- 45:51Speaker 1: an extremely high risk client. Between two thousand and five
- 45:55Speaker 1: and twenty and thirteen, there were reports that Epstein sexually
- 45:59Speaker 1: abused women and girls. Reads the filing. In two thousand
- 46:03Speaker 1: and eight, Epstein played guilty to sexual offenses and registered
- 46:07Speaker 1: as a sex offender. Despite JP Morgan's acknowledgment that it
- 46:11Speaker 1: needed to closely monitor Epstein, JP Morgan ignored numerous red
- 46:16Speaker 1: flags and failed to comply with federal banking regulations until
- 46:20Speaker 1: years later, after JP Morgan was no longer benefiting from
- 46:24Speaker 1: Epstein's business. JP Morgan has moved to have the case dismissed.
- 46:29Speaker 1: In court papers, the bank cut ties with Epstein in
- 46:32Speaker 1: twenty thirteen, and we know that that failed. They weren't
- 46:36Speaker 1: able to dismiss the case and the case is moving forward.
- 46:39Speaker 1: But this gives you a little bit more of a
- 46:41Speaker 1: look into the games that these fuckers are playing, and
- 46:44Speaker 1: all the dancing around, all the avoidance. This is what's
- 46:48Speaker 1: been going on for decades, and finally, at least some
- 46:52Speaker 1: of them are getting called to the carpet. The question
- 46:54Speaker 1: is when's it going to be time for Les Wesner
- 46:58Speaker 1: to dance to the tune the prosecutors are playing. All right, folks,
- 47:03Speaker 1: that's going to do it for this one. All of
- 47:05Speaker 1: the information that goes with the episode can be found
- 47:08Speaker 1: in the description box.
