  Speaker 1: What's up everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
• 0:03
  Epstein Chronicles. In this episode, we're gonna first start with
• 0:08
  a quick email, and then after that email, I have
• 0:11
  a few things to say about it. So this is
• 0:14
  an email that has to do with the alleged co
• 0:17
  conspirators of Jeffrey Epstein back in July of twenty nineteen. Now,
• 0:23
  of course we know that the DOJ closed the case
• 0:26
  out and said there was no co conspirators whatsoever, and
• 0:28
  that Jeffrey Epstein was just some loan weirdo, and of
• 0:31
  course we know at the time there were bs and us.
• 0:34
  But now here's a receipt from redacted to redacted subject
• 0:40
  co Conspirators, date Sunday, July seventh, twenty nineteen. When you
• 0:49
  get a chance, can you give me an update on
• 0:50
  the status of the ten co conspirators? Do we need
• 0:53
  redacted to head out? Unredacted? The reply email redacted does
• 0:59
  not need to head out. We made contact with redacted
• 1:01
  last night in New York. Contact was made with redacted
• 1:04
  and redacted. Attempts were made to redacted and Brunel. Redacted
• 1:09
  is confirmed to live in New York but was away
• 1:12
  for the holiday weekend. We did not have a good
• 1:15
  address for or redacted, but attempt was made at a
• 1:17
  residence in New York. Attempts to maxweller being made in
• 1:21
  Boston today. Redacted will be approached in Florida and redacted
• 1:25
  in New York, but haven't as of yet. I do
• 1:29
  not know about Ohio contacting Wexner. All right, So that's
• 1:33
  the email from the FBI in New York to the
• 1:36
  attorneys at the SDNY. And now I want you to
• 1:39
  keep that in mind when you're thinking about how the
• 1:41
  DOJ recently told us that there were no co conspirators
• 1:45
  and that the case was over and the case was closed.
• 1:48
  Remember Dan Bongino and Cash Betel telling us that. Remember
• 1:52
  the administration telling us that. And look, I know it's
• 1:55
  going to come as a shock because this is certainly
• 1:57
  the most transparent administration in the history of the country.
• 2:01
  But they lied to you. Jeffrey Epstein was never just
• 2:04
  a loan predator, and the time has long come for
• 2:08
  Jeffrey Epstein's co conspirators to be held accountable. And one
• 2:12
  of the ugliest tricks in this phase of the Epstein
• 2:14
  cover up is the calm way the DOJ pretended the
• 2:17
  past never existed. They spoke as if records did not exist.
• 2:21
  Subpoenas never went out, and names never crossed desks. Early
• 2:25
  investigators documented a network, not a solo act. Agents, reference recruiters, facilitators, schedulers, financiers,
• 2:34
  and protectors. We're not talking about gossip here, folks. We're
• 2:37
  talking about case build up. Then July twenty twenty five
• 2:41
  arrived with a press ready smile and a clean lie,
• 2:44
  and the lie said that there were no co conspirators.
• 2:47
  The lie said that Epstein acted alone. The lie asked
• 2:51
  the public to forget years of sworn statements, and the
• 2:54
  lie assumed no one was paying attention. When prosecutors say
• 2:59
  that there's no COCD spiters, they're not making a mistake.
• 3:02
  They're making a choice. And that choice requires ignoring investigative notes,
• 3:06
  grand jury leads, and parallel probes. It requires treating Maxwell
• 3:10
  as an anomaly instead of a node. It requires pretending
• 3:14
  logistics assembled themselves. It requires pretending money moved without hands,
• 3:19
  and it requires pretending victims arrived without coordination. And we
• 3:24
  all understand that decisions reflect priorities, and the priority here
• 3:28
  was closure without accountability. The DOJ wants the public to
• 3:32
  picture a predator who woke up one day and ran
• 3:35
  a multinational trafficking operational loan. They want you to imagine planes, properties, staff,
• 3:40
  and schedule as spontaneous events. They want you to believe
• 3:44
  that introductions happen by magic. They want you to believe
• 3:48
  that silence was a coincidence. They want you to believe
• 3:52
  that banks missed obvious red flags by accident. They want
• 3:56
  you to believe that prosecutors never saw the patterns. They
• 4:00
  want you to believe that witnesses misremembered the same facts.
• 4:04
  They want you to believe that investigators were confused by clarity.
• 4:08
  They want you to believe power had nothing to do
• 4:11
  with outcomes. And they want you to believe all of
• 4:14
  this without laughing, because anybody following along knows that the
• 4:19
  early case files did not read like a loan offend
• 4:21
  or a profile. They read like a map. Names appeared
• 4:24
  repeatedly across jurisdictions, phone numbers overlapped, travel record synced payments,
• 4:30
  clustered staff rolls, repeated access points. Matched survivors described the
• 4:35
  same pipelines, and pipelines do not build themselves. Ten Co
• 4:40
  Conspirators was not a rumor. Pulled from thin air. It
• 4:43
  was an investigative floor, not a ceiling. Leads expanded as
• 4:48
  victims spoke. Leads expanded as financial trails were traced. Leads
• 4:53
  expanded as emails were reviewed, and leads expanded as immunity
• 4:57
  deals were discussed. Leads exis because crimes of scale require infrastructure,
• 5:03
  and infrastructure requires people. People leave evidence. Evidence is only
• 5:09
  ignored when ignoring is the goal, and the DOJ trying
• 5:13
  to close the case. In twenty twenty five was sold
• 5:15
  as finality, and of course, finality is convenient when exposure
• 5:20
  is expensive. Finality is useful when litigation threatens reputations. Finality
• 5:26
  comms institutions that prefer quiet. Finality comforts donors, boards, and executives.
• 5:32
  Finality protects careers built on restraint. Finality is not justice.
• 5:38
  Justice demands naming participants. Participants were deliberately left unnamed. Calling
• 5:44
  Epstein alone predator narrows the blast radius. Narrow stories protect
• 5:49
  wide interest, and wide interest include money, influence, and access.
• 5:54
  Access is the currency of elite crime. Access requires gay keepers,
• 5:59
  and gay keepers are co conspirators by function, and of
• 6:04
  course function matters more than labels. Right because labels were
• 6:08
  carefully chosen to minimize harm. Harmed institutions mattered more than
• 6:12
  the harm to the survivors. And in my opinion, that
• 6:16
  priority choice defines this cover up because the DOJ did
• 6:20
  not lack tools. They had RICO, they had conspiracy statutes,
• 6:24
  they had financial crime frameworks, they had cooperating witnesses, they
• 6:28
  had years, they had leverage. They used restraint where aggression
• 6:33
  was warranted, and instead of a policy that was proactive,
• 6:37
  they chose a policy that favored containment. Now, compare the
• 6:41
  restraint in this case to how other cases are charged.
• 6:45
  Compare the appetite for sweeping narratives elsewhere. Compare the willingness
• 6:49
  to stack counts. Compare the eagerness to flip associates. Compare
• 6:54
  the timelines, and the disparity is obvious. And obvious disparities
• 6:59
  demand that X explanation, and the DOJ has offered none
• 7:03
  worth accepting, saying there were no co conspirators. Rewrite survivor testimony.
• 7:09
  Survivors described to recruiters. Survivors describe drivers, They described schedulers,
• 7:14
  They described watchers. They described enablers who normalize the abuse.
• 7:18
  They describe consequences for refusal, and these accounts aligne across years,
• 7:24
  and that alignment was probative, and that evidence was sidelined.
• 7:29
  I mean, did the financial institutions interact with a ghost
• 7:33
  or did they interact with a network? Did Epstein's transactions
• 7:36
  process themselves? Compliance failures cluster around relationships, and these relationships
• 7:42
  repeat because they are profitable, and that profit insulated participants
• 7:47
  from the scrutiny, and that scrutiny threatened stability. Stability was protected.
• 7:53
  The official narrative asked for trust after breach, but we
• 7:57
  all know that trust is not restored by omission, trusted
• 8:00
  through disclosure. But disclosure would expose uncomfortable names, and those
• 8:05
  names would lead to depositions, and of course those depositions
• 8:09
  would lead to documents, and the documents, well, they lead
• 8:12
  to accountability, and we all know that's the last thing
• 8:15
  they want. The DOJ has framed the end as responsible governance,
• 8:21
  but responsibility without transparency is theater. Followed through requires courage,
• 8:26
  and like morality, that's in short supply. So understand that
• 8:30
  when they use the phrase no co conspirator, they're using
• 8:33
  it as a legal eraser. They hope that it wipes
• 8:36
  away duty to pursue, that it wipes away a duty
• 8:39
  to explain that the smudges are the remaining contradictions. Scrutiny
• 8:44
  was treated as hostility, and hostility was used to shut
• 8:47
  the doors. And of course, the media briefings repeated the
• 8:51
  talking points, and those talking points traveled faster than facts.
• 8:56
  Facts require time. Time was denied. Now deny well that
• 9:00
  favors those with resources, and the resources shape the narratives.
• 9:05
  The memory becomes official. There is nothing accidental about erasing
• 9:09
  co conspirators. Accidents do not coordinate across agencies, so what
• 9:14
  remains is a record full of gaps, and gaps tell
• 9:17
  stories when filled with context, Systems point to protection, and
• 9:22
  protection points to complicity. The DOJ chows a narrow ending
• 9:26
  to avoid a wide reckoning. A reckoning would expose how
• 9:30
  abuse scaled, and they know that scaling requires partners, and
• 9:34
  partners require trust. Trust requires mutual benefit. A mutual benefit
• 9:40
  binds conspirators. Binding creates that durability, and the durability explains longevity.
• 9:46
  So saying that the federal governments lying about co conspirators
• 9:49
  is not hyperbole. I think it's a plain description of
• 9:52
  conflicting records. Record show pursuit of multiple actors statements denied
• 9:57
  those pursuits existed. Both can't be true. The choice of
• 10:01
  which to believe is moral, Believing the closure rewards evasion,
• 10:05
  believing the record honors reality. And for anyone still pretending
• 10:10
  this was about prudence or limits, Explain the select of blindness.
• 10:14
  Explain how investigators can see scaffolding and call it coincidence.
• 10:18
  Explain how repeated names become noise. Explain how silence becomes
• 10:23
  policy without signature. Explain how prosecutors forget their own paper trails.
• 10:28
  Explain why the safest outcome always aligns with the most
• 10:31
  powerful interests. Explain why the victims are asked to compress
• 10:34
  their experiences into a fairy tale about one man. Explain
• 10:38
  why the word network became taboo overnight. Explain why accountability
• 10:44
  was treated like a contagion. Explain why truth was managed
• 10:48
  instead of pursued. This story doesn't end because a press release.
• 10:52
  As it does, It continues every time someone notices the
• 10:55
  mismatch between the records and the rhetoric. It continues when
• 10:59
  people refuse to swallow the lone predatory myth. It continues
• 11:03
  when survivors refuse erasure. It continues when documents surface despite resistance.
• 11:10
  It continues when institutions realize silence no longer guarantee safety.
• 11:15
  It continues because lies decay under repetition, And it continues
• 11:19
  because power miscalculated our endurance. And it continues because the
• 11:25
  facts were never buried, only ignored. All of the information
