Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
- 0:03Epstein Chronicles. When it comes to Jeffrey Epstein and his
- 0:07criminal empire, there is no doubt that it's stretched around
- 0:11the globe, and some of those locations are a lot
- 0:14more well known than others. And one of the areas
- 0:18where Jeffrey Epstein and his buddy Jean Luke Brunel were
- 0:22most active is down in Central and South America. And
- 0:28now we have girls coming out from Brazil and other
- 0:32areas talking about what they went through when they were
- 0:36recruited by Jeffrey Epstein and his criminal empire. And when
- 0:40it comes to South America and Central America, I think
- 0:43there's a whole last story that still hasn't been uncovered,
- 0:47and I think a lot of the women from this
- 0:50area are going to start coming forward and talking about
- 0:53what happened. And in this article, in fact, we're going
- 0:56to hear from an Epstein survivor, a woman named Amanda Ungaro,
- 1:02who says that she saw miners sitting on Jeffrey Epstein's
- 1:05lap and alleges that a modeling agent tried to place
- 1:08drugs in her bag on a two thousand and two
- 1:11flight from Paris to New York. This article was published
- 1:14by Old Globo and the headline Brazilian X model describes
- 1:19Epstein's flight. There were about thirty girls, beautiful and very young.
- 1:24This article was authored by Natasha Robero. Amanda Ungaro was
- 1:30seventeen when she boarded Jeffrey Epstein's private jet, known as
- 1:34the Lolita Express, on a flight from Paris to New
- 1:37York in June of two thousand and two. At the time,
- 1:41the financier's crimes were not yet public, and the first
- 1:44accusations would emerge in two thousand and five. Incorrect, Remember
- 1:49the first accusations came from Maria Farmer in nineteen ninety six. Now,
- 1:54those accusations were not public at the time, so that
- 1:57much is true. But we have to make sure that
- 2:00we keep the record straight. There is so much going
- 2:02on here, there's so much to keep in line, so
- 2:06much to keep in order, that we have to make
- 2:09sure that even the little facts are lined up right.
- 2:13We'll leave the bullshitting and the nonsense to people like
- 2:16Candace Owens and Ian Carroll. In an interview with oh Globo,
- 2:20the former model described scenes aboard the aircraft that she
- 2:24said reflected the vulnerability of very young girls, many of
- 2:28them between fourteen and sixteen. And remember the deposition that
- 2:32we went through from missus Vasquez where she was talking
- 2:36about all these girls from Central and South America that
- 2:40were being brought through mc squared and then being abused
- 2:44in places like New York. This all leads right back
- 2:47to that, right, and it corroborates what she was saying.
- 2:50There were about thirty girls on the plane. I found
- 2:53it very strange Angarro had said they looked more like
- 2:57students than models, beautiful and very young, but not with
- 3:01the model profile. Well that's because they weren't models. What
- 3:04Brunel would do is he'd go through the countryside in
- 3:07places like Brazil, little villages, whatever, and then offer these
- 3:11girls and their parents a whole bunch of money. Hey,
- 3:14let your daughter come to America, become a model, and
- 3:17you guys are going to be rich. But the reality
- 3:21is a lot of these girls would come to America
- 3:23and they never got any modeling opportunities. Instead, they were abused,
- 3:28they were kept hostage basically, and they were left at
- 3:31the mercy of Jeffrey Epstein and Jean lu Bruneau. And
- 3:35I think evidence like this just goes directly to that point,
- 3:38and I think, considering all the circumstantial evidence that we have,
- 3:42it's rather obvious what was going on when it comes
- 3:45to Epstein and South America. Aungaro, now forty one, spoke
- 3:51to O Globo after returning to Brazil following her deportation
- 3:55from the United States, where she had lived from two
- 3:58thousand and two twenty twenty five. Originally from Landrina in
- 4:04southern Brazil. She accused the father of her son, an
- 4:07Italian businessman Paulo Zampoli, of using his influence in Washington
- 4:13to trigger her arrest by US immigration authorities amid an
- 4:16ongoing custody dispute over their fifteen year old son. Well,
- 4:21isn't that name familiar? Isn't that the man that people
- 4:24have said hooked up Malania and Donald Trump? Funny that
- 4:28his name's involved here, too, huh. I know, though, I know,
- 4:31just another coincidence, right. Zampoli, who was in a nearly
- 4:37two decade relationship with Angaro, currently serves as Special Envoy
- 4:42for Global Partnerships in the Trump administration and is a
- 4:46longtime associate of Donald Trump, and his name appears dozens
- 4:49of times in documents related to the Epstein case released
- 4:53by the US Department of Justice. He founded the modeling
- 4:56agency ID Models, which Epstein frequently vised, visited in New York,
- 5:01and the two attempted to acquire Elite Model Management in
- 5:05two thousand and four. Imagine having all these Epstein adjacent
- 5:08people in your administration if you were the president of
- 5:12the United States. That sounds like something out of like
- 5:15a movie, right or a book. But unfortunately that shit's reality.
- 5:20And when Thomas Massey talks about this being the Epstein administration,
- 5:24that's what he means. There's so many people that were
- 5:27adjacent to Epstein, so many people that were in business
- 5:31with Epstein that are now part of this administration, that
- 5:35it's apt and it's certainly a fitting title. On Garl
- 5:39boarded Epstein's plane, accompanied by her then agent, French modeling
- 5:43scout Jean Luke Brunel. She had recently changed representation in France,
- 5:48leaving Ford Models to sign with Karen Models in Paris. Brunel,
- 5:52she said, invited her onto the jet, telling her they
- 5:55would be traveling at the invitation of a friend and
- 5:57his wife in New York. The final destination on Garro
- 6:01was scheduled to attend her first casting in the United States.
- 6:05I was scared when I saw all those girls. I thought,
- 6:08where am I? She recalled. Her discomfort did not go unnoticed. Brunell,
- 6:13who according to Justice Department files, acted as a recruiter
- 6:17for Epstein, sawtar reassure and letter to the owner of
- 6:21the plane. Let me introduce you to Jeffrey Epstein, he said,
- 6:25talk about being led to the belly of the beast. Huh.
- 6:27Instead of dumb and dumber, Brunell and Epstein were scummy
- 6:31and scummier. I mean, these two dudes together were an
- 6:35absolute nightmare. And the fact that Brunell was allowed to
- 6:38get away with that bullshit for as long as he
- 6:40did is unbelievable to me. So many people came out
- 6:45and talked about jean lu Brunel and the kind of
- 6:48piece of shitt he was for years, and nobody did
- 6:51shit about it. In fact, over there in France, they
- 6:55just ignored it all. But there were plenty of people
- 6:57who had a lot to say about what Jeanne and
- 7:00Luke Brunell was up to. Epstein approached Dungaro, asked her
- 7:04age and where she was from. Soon after, Glenn Maxwell
- 7:08his longtime associate. You mean, co conspirator, right general, all
- 7:12around scumbag fellow child abused her and bipedal serpent. Maxwell
- 7:18joined the interaction. When told Dungaro was Brazilian, Maxwell reacted enthusiastically, Oh,
- 7:25how nice that you're from Brazil. Oh I bet, I bet?
- 7:30Maxwell acted like that. We all know that Maxwell has
- 7:33never met a vulnerable girl or woman that she didn't
- 7:35want to abuse Onngaro said that she kept to herself
- 7:39throughout the flight and did not interact with other passengers. Still,
- 7:43she noticed that many of the girls appeared familiar with Epstein.
- 7:48I'm sure they did. Unfortunately, that was the whole point,
- 7:53and they're not even talking about it yet, but it's
- 7:55gonna come out eventually that these girls were being sent
- 7:58to Epstein's house to live with them. We're talking about
- 8:02fourteen fifteen, sixteen year old girls at the townhouse on
- 8:06a rotating basis, being brought in through the pipeline that
- 8:09was set up by Jean Luke Bernel, and these girls
- 8:14were being brought to Epstein's mansion the townhouse for him
- 8:17to do with as he pleases. And all of that
- 8:21stuff is going to come out eventually, and I think
- 8:23with the drip we're seeing here, it won't be long.
- 8:27Some of them sat on his lap, stayed close, playing around,
- 8:31she said, adding that Maxwell also seemed at ease. It
- 8:35felt like they already knew each other. It didn't seem
- 8:37like a group of strangers meeting for the first time.
- 8:40Those people hadn't just met like I had. At one point,
- 8:45she said that Epstein and Maxwell went to the back
- 8:47of the plane accompanied by some of the girls. She
- 8:50didn't see them again for the remainder of the flight. Well,
- 8:53I wonder why. I wonder why she didn't see them.
- 8:58What do you think they were doing back there? Talking
- 9:00about Cabbage Patch kids? Maybe talking about the latest Pokemon cards.
- 9:06We know what those sick, degenerate bastards were doing back there.
- 9:10The unease persisted. Angaro said that she asked Brunel who
- 9:14the girls were and who the man who had introduced
- 9:17himself as the jet owner was. He said that it
- 9:21was just a friend and that the girls were models.
- 9:24She said, I was seventeen in shi. If it were today,
- 9:27I would question everything, but at the time I didn't.
- 9:31I didn't even know who Jeffrey Epstein was. And you
- 9:35know what we can't expect a seventeen year old girl
- 9:37from Brazil to know the deal, right. All these other
- 9:40adults that are around the pilots, Epstein's assistants, Epstein's friends,
- 9:45they all know better, so they should have stepped up.
- 9:49When the plane landed in the United States, Angaro and
- 9:52Brunel were among the first to get off. But before that,
- 9:56she said, she experienced another disturbing episode. Seated across from
- 10:01her on a sofa separated by a small table, Brunell
- 10:05tossed what appeared to be a small object order a
- 10:08package wrapped and transparent plastic. Put this in your bag,
- 10:13he told her, Ungaro said. She asked what it was,
- 10:17Brunel insisted. When she refused again, he threw the package
- 10:21toward her once more. His persistence, she said, made her
- 10:25suspect what it was. I realized right away that it
- 10:29was probably drug, she said, And I said, no way,
- 10:32not in my bag. And that is pretty interesting considering
- 10:36the DEA investigation that we know has been shelved. So
- 10:40was Brunel and his associates bringing drugs in as well?
- 10:43Very possible, very very possible. All I wanted was to
- 10:48get off that plane, Ungaro said, I didn't feel comfortable.
- 10:51I knew something was wrong, I just didn't know what.
- 10:54At the time, it never crossed my mind that it
- 10:57could have involved abuse. For years, Jeffrey Epstein was seen
- 11:02as a well connected financier who catered to billionaire clients
- 11:05and moved among politicians and celebrities. That image began to
- 11:10unravel in two thousand and six when he was accused
- 11:13of sexually abusing minors in Palm Beach, Florida. Despite multiple allegations,
- 11:18he was initially charged with a lesser offense of soliciting prostitution,
- 11:23a decision that drew criticism and led the FBI to
- 11:27open the federal investigation at that time of Onngaro's flight
- 11:31in two thousand and two, however, none of those allegations
- 11:35had to add surfaced. So look, it's just another story
- 11:39to add to the pile. And when you add all
- 11:41this evidence up and you look at it closely, there
- 11:44is zero doubt that Jeffrey Epstein and his network were
- 11:48superactive down in South and Central America. And considering all that,
- 11:53the only question left is just how far did the
- 11:56abuse go. All the information that goes with this episode
