The Women Still Living With the Fallout of Jeffrey Epstein’s Criminal Empire (5/16/26) · The Vault: The Epstein Files

Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
0:02
Epstein Chronicles. Over the past year or so, there's been
0:06
this misconception among some people that Glainne Maxwell was being
0:12
unfairly targeted and treated as a proxy for Jeffrey Epstein.
0:17
And if you don't know the case, I could see
0:20
how people could believe that you have all these big names,
0:23
all these famous, powerful people, and only Glayne Maxwell goes
0:27
to prison. That doesn't seem right, and you would expect
0:30
other people to also be sitting in prison. But one
0:36
thing about Glayne Maxwell that people need to understand is
0:39
that she was just as devious, just as disgusting, and
0:44
even more dangerous, according to the survivors, than Jeffrey Epstein himself.
0:49
And that's why I find it reprehensible to even talk
0:52
about having Glainne Maxwell released from prison. There's no basis
0:57
for that. There's no reason that she should be given mercy.
1:03
She was found guilty by a jury of her peers,
1:06
and not for just some little, you know, rinky ding crime,
1:10
crimes against children, human trafficking, and she's lucky she only
1:15
got charged with that because she should have been charged
1:17
with RICO. So today we have an article from the
1:20
Times and the headline I've interviewed dozens of Epstein victims.
1:25
There's one person they still fear. This article was authored
1:29
by Josie and Zor. In late January, the name of
1:32
one of Jeffrey Epstein's victims appeared buried in the Epstein files.
1:36
The woman's name had been left unredacted, exposing her identity
1:41
to the world. The woman, whom I will call Francesca, had,
1:45
in the decade since her abuse, gone on to marry,
1:48
start a family, and forge your new life of anonymity.
1:53
And this is what I talked about previously. A lot
1:55
of the people that were caught up in this, they've compartmentalized,
1:59
they've moved, they've hidden it because they know there's never
2:04
gonna be any kind of justice for them. And then
2:08
they see what's going on now, and why would they
2:10
come forward. It's all just a big hoax, right. Jeffrey
2:14
Epstein didn't really do anything wrong, I mean not really.
2:19
He was just a guy that you know, was a
2:21
bit perverted, that's all that is. And what do you
2:24
mean kids, they were seventeen. That's the kind of bullshit
2:29
excuse that we're hearing from people about Jeffrey Epstein. And
2:33
I've said it once and I'll say it a million
2:34
more times. Even if you don't believe that Epstein was
2:38
trafficking vast numbers of girls all over the world, which
2:42
I don't believe, by the way, how could you possibly
2:46
not believe that he was raping and molesting dozens of
2:50
high school age girls, because he most certainly was. And
2:54
as far as you know trafficking girls, there were select
2:58
people that girls were traffic too, but he wasn't. Heidi Flices.
3:02
And I've told you guys that from the very beginning.
3:05
There's a lot of bs going on right now with
3:07
this story, a lot of untruths, and a lot of
3:10
it's by design. That's why they put all of that
3:13
salacious shit in the files to be released, so that
3:17
people would start questioning it, all of it. Oh, this
3:20
is just so fanciful cannibals turning people into beef jerky
3:24
and eating them. Now, of course, if you already have
3:28
an interest in, you know, moving whatever narrative forward, then yeah,
3:32
you're gonna buy into that, or you're gonna push that
3:35
narrative because you think it's hurtful. But the reality is
3:41
that's not a narrative that anyone's gonna buy. And that's
3:43
not a narrative that there's any proof to back up.
3:47
Oh sure, the guy talked about beef jerky and Epstein
3:50
had a ton of it. Oh he's a cannibal. Turns
3:52
out the chef actually owned a restaurant called Cannibal. My
3:58
point is, there's so much really hear that you don't
4:01
have to go on a fishing expedition to try and
4:03
make shit up. She was furious the US Department of
4:08
Justice had promised to protect survivors of Epstein's sex trafficking
4:12
ring by concealing their names. But above all, she was
4:15
terrified of Glenn Maxwell. And I have heard this from
4:19
numerous women about how terrifying Maxwell really was and how
4:23
it was Maxwell who passed down discipline. And this is
4:27
from multiple people in my years reporting on Epstein and Maxwell,
4:33
his girlfriend and enabler and co conspirator and fellow child
4:37
abuser and bipudal serpent. You mean, I have interviewed dozens
4:42
of survivors. I had never planned to publicly identify Francesca,
4:46
but I was curious to see if she would speak
4:48
about her time with the couple. Who learned teenage girls
4:52
from difficult backgrounds with friendship, money gifts, and the promises
4:56
of help building their careers. After weeks of messaging Francesco
5:00
over What's that, she agreed to speak on the phone.
5:02
She told me how she was recruited by the couple
5:05
in the nineties when she was just fifteen. She said
5:08
that she fell lulled into a false sense of security
5:11
by Maxwell, a friendly, middle aged woman with a Yorkshire
5:15
Terrier named Max and a clip British accent. Well, Maxwell
5:19
was a huge part of making these girls feel comfortable.
5:23
The whole entire normalization process was led and controlled by
5:28
none other than Glenn Maxwell. She was the one that
5:31
made sure that all of that happened. And when one
5:34
of the girls quote unquote stepped out of line, it
5:36
was Maxwell who was there to discipline them. Then one
5:41
day she stopped replying to me, I probably sound like
5:44
one of those conspiracy people, but if you knew them,
5:46
there's nothing at all that I would put past them.
5:49
Francesca told me in March, I wish I were more
5:52
confident that nothing bad will come of speaking, she said
5:55
in a final message. And that's how a lot of
5:58
them feel and to people out there, it might be
6:01
no big deal. Well, come forward, tell your story. You're
6:05
not the one that has to live it. You're not
6:07
the one that has to go home and look at
6:09
your family, your kids and explain what happened. But unfortunately
6:13
that's the position that a lot of these women have
6:15
now found themselves in, where they have to explain what
6:19
happened to them, instead of the DOJ pursuing people that
6:23
were involved. Years on from her abuse, Francesca is among
6:29
scores of Epstein's survivors who still live in fear of
6:32
repercussions from their time with Epstein and Maxwell. Epstein's long dead,
6:37
while Maxwell's sixty four, is four years into a twenty
6:40
year of federal sentence for sex trafficking. Even so, victims
6:44
still live in fear of her influence. Well, especially now,
6:49
imagine being one of these girls and seeing the way
6:52
Maxwell's been treated by Blanche and by Trump and Bondie
6:55
before them. I'd be scared too. Don't think Alaane Maxwell's
7:01
going to go on a revenge tour if she gets
7:02
out of prison. The prospect of Maxwell being pardoned by
7:06
the Trump administration first raised last year after she agreed
7:10
to speak with Todd Blanche, then Deputy Attorney General, has
7:14
had further chilling effects on survivors thinking of coming forward,
7:19
Just as I predicted, Why would you want to come
7:22
forward if you're not going to be listened to If
7:26
it looks like the people who are supposed to be
7:28
pursuing justice are standing in the way of it. Not
7:31
exactly confidence inducing is it? To this day, the shadow
7:39
of Maxwell's abuse looms large over her alleged victims. That
7:43
abuse has been extensively documented in civil lawsuits and during
7:47
her twenty twenty one criminal trial, when a courtroom heard
7:51
how the British former socialite used power, money and influence
7:55
to silence and control her victims. I guess all of
7:58
that was just vs right. Everything we heard during the
8:01
child ah nonsense, None of it happened, Glaigne Maxwell, She's
8:05
being wrongly accused. Francesca, who was not from the US,
8:11
said she was worried that Maxwell may be able to
8:13
somehow affect her right to remain here, believing that Maxwell
8:17
retains influence over the media and those in power. She
8:21
even questioned whether Maxwell was really in prison. Look, there's
8:25
a lot of people that have asked that question. I
8:28
think she's in prison. I don't think that there's some
8:31
kind of, you know, gigantic, behind the scenes scam going
8:36
on where Maxwell is not in that jail or that facility.
8:41
But even so, she shouldn't even be there, Glayne Maxwell
8:45
should be back at Tallahassee. Julie K. Brown, the Miami
8:49
Herald journalist who's reporting on Epstein prompted federal authorities to
8:53
reopen their criminal investigation into the sex offender, recently speculated
8:58
without evidence that Maxwell associates may have been behind recent
9:02
leaks of emails between Epstein and Andrew mount buntin Winsor,
9:06
who has denied any wrongdoing. Yeah. I don't know about that.
9:11
I have to disagree with that. I don't think Olaine
9:14
is gonna throw Andrew under the bus. I just don't
9:18
think that's gonna happen. Brown wrote on her substack that
9:22
Maxwell could have intended the documents to send a message
9:25
that this is what is at stake if she remains
9:27
in prison. The theory, which has not been substantiated, is
9:32
that Maxwell might hold similar documentation implicating prominent figures, including
9:36
Donald Trump, who in February this year told reporters I
9:40
have nothing to hide. I've been exonerated. I have nothing
9:43
to do with Jeffrey Epstein. The DOJ has described the
9:46
claims against Trump as untrue and sensationalist, and there's no
9:51
doubt that there is a lot of that, and a
9:53
lot of people who have no idea what they're talking
9:55
about have made a lot of assertions and a lot
9:59
of vacuisationations that just aren't true. Out of more than
10:05
a thousand identified survivors of Epstein, only about a dozen
10:09
have ever come forward publicly, with many citing fear of
10:13
Epstein's living associates and co conspirators. Well, that's a valid fear.
10:19
I mean, they're still powerful enough that they're obscuring what's
10:22
going on. And how powerful do you think they have
10:25
to be to keep this shit under wraps. I mean,
10:28
we're talking about a war in Iran, fucking aliens, really,
10:33
and nobody is paying attention that it's all of distraction
10:36
from this. Okay, I guess, go on with your bad selves.
10:40
Tell me some more about that moron, Chud the Builder
10:43
or some of these other idiots that call themselves influencers.
10:47
Quit making dumb people famous. I spoke to one lawyer
10:51
who represents a number of survivors who said he had
10:53
been approached by women for legal counsel. They pulled out
10:57
after reports that Maxwell may be offered clemency. And that
11:01
was all part of it, right, all part of the
11:04
gigantic cover up that is underway, and the fact that
11:07
people refuse to see it or acknowledge it because of
11:10
their politics is disgusting. Last summer, Maxwell agreed to be
11:16
interviewed by Blanche. A week later, Maxwell was transferred from
11:19
her Florida jail to a low security prison camp in Texas,
11:23
an unprecedented move for a convicted sex offender with more
11:27
than ten years left on their sentence. The Trump administration
11:31
offered no explanation. Victims feared it was a sign that
11:35
they could be working on a deal to release her.
11:39
Imagine all these people out here who yelled and screamed
11:41
about Epstein this and Epstein that before Trump became president.
11:45
Now those very same people are like f Epstein. F
11:48
the survivors, Screw what happened. It's all fake, all because
11:52
the person that's in charge of their political party told
11:54
them to. And keep in mind, these are the same
11:57
people that run around calling everybody a cuck. Pretty sure
12:01
that they'd be sitting in that chair if Donald Trump
12:03
asked them to. David Oscar Marcus, Maxwell's lawyer told Politico
12:11
in an interview last month that he believed there was
12:13
a good chance his client would ultimately receive clemency, a
12:17
power available solely to Trump, who has not ruled out
12:20
the prospect, of course not. Got to take care of
12:24
his peeps, right, got to make sure that Glaine the
12:26
Gremlin gets hooked up. God forbid. She told the story
12:30
or two about when they used to hang out. Republican
12:34
representatives on the House Oversight and Reform Committee said in
12:37
late April that they had split opinions whether the President
12:40
should have pardon Maxwell, so she would cooperate with their
12:43
investigation into Epstein. Okay, perfect, great, Which Republicans put your
12:49
name to it? I'm sure it was that moron Anna
12:52
Pauline a luna, Right, she had to be involved in
12:56
some way. How about her dumbas come out out and
13:00
saying that the CIA raided the DNI the other day?
13:03
Never happened. I told you that lady was a liar.
13:08
I can sniff these people out from a mile away,
13:10
and the stank coming off a luna is punging as hell.
13:15
Gleae Maxwell must never receive a pardon or clemency, the
13:19
Democratic Representative Raga Krishna Morthy told an Oversight Committee hearing
13:24
on Tuesday. Maxwell has shown no remorse and taking no
13:27
accountability for her role in Epstein's abuse network. Well, no,
13:31
she's the victim, don't you know, Glean Maxwell's the victim,
13:36
Not the girls, not us, you know, society in general,
13:41
but Glenn Maxwell. Francesca, who is from Eastern Europe, claimed
13:46
that Epstein was able to arrange visas for her and
13:48
her parents, who are now settled in the US. She
13:51
feared coming forward could lead to them being deported. At
13:55
what point are people going to start realizing that there
13:58
was a vast amount of immigration fraud taking place and
14:02
somebody had to help them do that. They couldn't do
14:04
that themselves. What Epstein walked into I ins and started
14:08
whipping up passports and shit by himself. Stop it? Who
14:12
helped them and why and what did they gain from it?
14:17
Francesca told me. Glan once asked me what I thought
14:20
Epstein did, and she told me he makes very important
14:23
decisions for the world with very important people. Every important
14:27
decision in the world Jeffrey is part of it was
14:30
all about making clear to me that she and Epstein
14:33
had power to control what happens to me, and that
14:36
was definitely part of it, part of the coercion, and
14:39
part of the whole entire entrapment that they were using.
14:45
Jeffrey was evil, he was a psychopath who had no empathy.
14:48
But Ghlainne Maxwell could understand people's emotions, see their pain.
14:53
That in my mind, made her far more worse and
14:55
far scarier. And how many times have we heard it?
14:59
I mean ultiple people have said the same thing. After
15:03
Epstein's death, Francesca said, the NYPD and FBI were hounding
15:08
me to testify, but I didn't want to see my
15:10
face while she was still alive on the earth. I
15:13
never did speak. I feel like Lane's going to get
15:17
out if she's still even in And at this point,
15:19
I don't trust anything around both Jeffrey and Glaine situations,
15:24
knowing how much power over people in situations they have,
15:27
She said via text. If you can find out if
15:30
Jay is really dead or g is actually in jail,
15:33
that would be great. And look, I believe that Jeffrey
15:36
Epstein's dead, and I believe Glenn Maxwell is in jail,
15:40
but that's about as much as I believe of the
15:42
official narrative. That said, if somebody has evidence that Glenn
15:46
Maxwell's not in prison or Epstein's not dead, I will
15:50
certainly look at it. Maria Farmer, a victim of Epstein
15:54
and Maxwell who was among the first to report allegations
15:57
of abuse to the FBI in ninety six, told Tuesday's
16:00
hearing that she had been subjected to threats from Maxwell,
16:04
who said she had personally threatened to kill her. And
16:07
I've heard that from Maria herself directly to me, and
16:12
Maria has been very, very consistent with what she said
16:15
about Maxwell. Another woman who worked for Epstein in Maxwell
16:19
for over a decade told The Times last year that
16:22
she thought about speaking out publicly, but claimed to have
16:25
been worn by Maxwell back in the nineties that she
16:28
and Epstein held information on associates and employees. Well, yeah,
16:33
when you're involved in a black mel compromount ring, chances
16:36
are there's a dossier on everybody. Glene had fuck up
16:41
files on everyone that came to the houses and the island,
16:45
and if anyone ever messed up, she said she would
16:47
use it against them. The woman said. She said she
16:50
was collecting everything, and I really believe that she was,
16:54
but I guess that's just bs right. None of that
16:56
ever happened. Stop it. It's a big conspiracy, just like
16:59
you said aout. Epstein himself was a conspiracy. We were
17:04
supposed to meet out of a cafe to discuss her story,
17:06
but she never turned up. Too many people had already died,
17:11
she later told me, obliquely referring to the number of
17:13
deaths and suicides surrounding Epstein, including Epstein himself, the French
17:19
model scout Jean Luke Brunel, the victim survivor you mean,
17:24
Virginia Roberts, and the government witness Carolyn Andreano, who died
17:29
of a suspected accidental drug overdose at thirty six. The
17:34
British victim Anuska de Giorgio, who testified as an anonymous Jane,
17:39
though at Maxwell's trafficking trial alongside Andreano, only came out
17:43
publicly after Maxwell's twenty twenty two sentencing. Glenn Maxwell was
17:48
present for some of my abuse at the hands of
17:50
Jeffrey Epstein. The Georgio said. The possibility that's going around
17:55
that she might be pardoned is one of my worst nightmares.
17:58
And you would think that the DOJ would speak to
18:00
the survivors about what they think about Maxwell, right, they haven't. Instead,
18:05
they thought it would be a good idea to talk
18:07
to Glaine Maxwell instead. And look, this woman, Francesca is
18:11
just one person, but I can tell you for sure
18:15
that the vast majority of Epstein's survivors fear Glaine Maxwell.
18:20
They feared her back then and they fear her now.
18:23
And that's why there shouldn't even be a conversation about
18:25
Maxwell getting any kind of clemency. What you should get
18:29
is moved back to Tallahassee. That's what I think. So
18:33
what do you folks think? Do you think that Glaine
18:35
Maxwell is going to get that pardon from Donald Trump?
18:38
Or do you think that it's just a bunch of
18:40
talk and nothing's ever gonna come of it. Shoot me
18:42
some emails and let me know. All the information that
18:46
