Jeffrey Epstein's' Estate And The Allegations That They Stonewalled Survivors · The Epstein Chronicles

0:00
Speaker 1: This article is from Abcnews dot Go dot com. The
0:04
author of the article is James Hill. Headline. Survivor's attorney
0:09
accuses Epstein a state of attempts to stonewall lawsuit. An
0:15
attorney for a woman who claims to be the first
0:17
known child sex abuse survivor of Jeffrey Epstein and Elaine
0:20
Maxwell is accusing the legal team representing Epstein's estate of
0:24
withholding evidence and attempting to prevent the testimony of a
0:28
key witness. According to a letter sent to the judge
0:31
overseeing her lawsuit on Wednesday, that should chuck nobody. Like
0:36
I just said in the opening statement, Darren Endyke and
0:40
con both should be nowhere near this case. And I
0:44
have a funny feeling that if prosecution pursues this case
0:48
the way that they should, in a very robust and
0:53
aggressive manner, then they could add they'd have no other
0:56
choice but to bring Indike in as well for questioning.
1:00
At the very least under oath. This man was involved
1:05
in all sorts of financial transactions for Epstein and the
1:09
rest of these morons, so he was facilitating a money
1:14
laundering ring. How is he still part of the estate,
1:21
How is he acting as an executor. This behavior flies
1:27
in the face of fairness, professionalism, and much needed justice,
1:31
wrote Robert Glassman, the lawyer for the accuser who filed
1:35
the suit under the pseudonym Jane Doe. According to the letter,
1:39
attorneys for the estate have failed to turn over a
1:41
single page of evidence in the three months since being
1:44
served with three trial requests. That's what they've done from
1:48
the beginning in this case, when it comes to Jeffrey
1:51
Epstein and the people that are in his circle or
1:55
were in his circle, they have attempted to delay, they
1:59
have attempted to muddy the waters, and they have attempted
2:02
to drag their feet every single step of the way.
2:08
And you see that same strategy continuing here, and they're
2:11
attempting to get away with it again. Let's hope that
2:15
they get a taste of reality. Like their good friend
2:17
Gilaine did. The estate miss to previously agreed upon deadline
2:24
to begin producing documents in the possession of the estate
2:27
that contained Doe's name and information, Glassman wrote, and heclaimed
2:31
they abruptly called off a scheduled deposition of Darren Endyke,
2:35
one of the estates co executors and a longtime lawyer
2:38
for Epstein and his affiliated companies more than that friend confidant,
2:45
not somebody that just has a business relationship with him,
2:49
just a working relationship. As much as I think Epstein
2:52
is the scum of the earth, I believe that everybody
2:55
is entitled to legal defense, right, but this went way
2:59
beyond that. This is a man who was facilitating things
3:02
for Jeffrey Epstein by participating in the financial crimes. The
3:11
estate is engaging in an obstructionist litigation tactics intended to
3:15
stonewall and deprive Jane Doe of plainly relevant discovery. Glassman
3:20
wrote in asking for a conference with the court, it
3:24
is clear that absent court intervention, the Epstein estate will
3:27
not comply with its basic discovery obligations. And again that's
3:33
part for the course.
3:34
Speaker 2: With these people.
3:35
Speaker 1: They will try and do whatever they can to make
3:38
sure that this goes all the way down to the
3:41
eleventh hour. They don't want a timely trial, they don't
3:45
want to produce discovery because then their scummy ass clients
3:49
will have to answer for their behavior. So let's drag
3:53
our feet a little bit, Let's wait longer, let's ask
3:57
for a delay, all in hopes that they can somehow
4:00
either a find a loophole or b find somebody to
4:04
help them wiggle off the hook. Doe has already turned
4:11
over more than one hundred and ninety pages of documents
4:13
to the estate earlier this month, according to the letter,
4:17
but balked at the estate's request for what Glassman called
4:20
largely irrelevant and quite frankly outrageous information from Doe. Glassman
4:28
claimed that among the requests were documents referencing any and
4:32
all medical procedures and consultations she has ever had throughout
4:36
her lifetime, including while she was a minor, even if
4:40
such medical care was unrelated to Jeffrey Epstein's alleged abuse
4:43
of her. This is what happens when you have a
4:48
guy like Darren and Dyke and you have con in there, Okay,
4:51
Indyke especially, this guy's no better than the rest of
4:55
this criminal organization. In fact, he's right up there with
4:57
the core four right underneath them, in my opinion, in
5:00
the command structure, and in fact, in some other ways,
5:03
this man would basically be the CONSIGLIERI. If we want
5:07
to continue with our mob talk, obviously that's what you
5:10
would have to talk about. This guy as right, something
5:13
like that, Jeffrey Epstein's question, Guy, Hey, can I do this?
5:16
Speaker 2: What should we do about that? Hey?
5:17
Speaker 1: Can I get some advice on this legal issue? And
5:20
it was up to Indyke to find out how to
5:22
finesse all of that. It was up to Indyke to
5:24
find out how to facilitate all of that, and for
5:29
him participating in Jeffrey Epstein's crimes for that reason, Darren
5:35
Endyke must be subpoenaed, must testify, and must be questioned.
5:44
Bennett Moskowitz, a lawyer for Indyke and Richard Kahn, the
5:48
estate's co executors, declined to comment on the allegations raised
5:51
by Glassman's by Glassman when reached Wednesday by ABC News.
5:56
Speaker 2: And that's just telling right there alone.
5:57
Speaker 1: The executors of the estate had to go out and
6:00
lawyer up themselves because there's such dirt bags that they
6:04
know the slap back from the rubber band is on
6:08
its way to crack them. These people are gross disgusting.
6:16
Speaker 2: Almost not even human.
6:22
Speaker 1: But in a response filed in court Thursday, and a
6:24
state attorney called Glassman's letter very premature and a misrepresentation
6:29
of what had occurred. Of course, it's always a misrepresentation.
6:32
Oh no, no, that's not what mister you know what
6:35
we thought here, mister Kahn thought here, what mister Endyke
6:38
thought here. No, it's not okay, it is not a misrepresentation.
6:47
These executors in this estate have made a habit of
6:51
not turning over documentation when required, of making the judge
6:54
force their hand and dragging.
6:57
Speaker 2: Their feet the whole way.
7:04
Speaker 1: The estate claims that indikex deposition was taken off the
7:07
calendar to allow time for Maxwell's lawyer, who had just
7:10
entered the case, to confer with all parties about setting
7:13
new schedules and contend and contended that the production of
7:17
documents in their possession was being held up only because
7:21
Doe's lawyers had yet to agree to a confidentiality order,
7:25
which must occur before we produce documents that referred to Doe,
7:29
who filed this case anonymously by her real name. And
7:33
I think that's something that's pretty important that's buried in
7:36
that paragraph is the fact that the estate claims that
7:40
Indyke's deposition was taken off the calendar to allow time
7:43
for Maxwell's lawyer, who had just entered the case, entered
7:47
the case. Why was Why is Maxwell's lawyer in the case.
7:50
Maybe because of the suit that she was going to
7:52
bring against the estate for them to pay for her
7:55
or is Maxwell's lawyer just pilfering around hoping to get
8:00
information to help with her defense. Every single door must
8:05
be kicked in, every rock turned over, and every tree
8:13
must be given a good shake when it comes to
8:15
this case. That is for missus, That is for Doe's benefit,
8:22
wrote a state lawyer, Mary Grace Metcalf. Glassman told ABC
8:26
News Thursday that he hadn't agreed to delaying Indyke's deposition
8:29
and that he sees no need for a confidentiality agreement
8:33
to predict the identity of his client because there is
8:36
a prior court order which deals with that. And again,
8:39
that's what they're trying to do. They'll try and make
8:41
these assertions right when they know clearly they're not in
8:44
the right, and they'll force the judge to decide. That way,
8:48
they buy themselves more time, they can solidify their defenses,
8:52
and they can be involved in whatever sort of sordid
8:54
activities they think are going to help them behind the scenes.
9:00
We're interested in taking this case to trial and getting
9:03
the evidence that we need in order to prepare the
9:05
case for that time, Glassman said, and it appears that
9:09
they're more interested in sitting in their offices, writing letters
9:12
and objecting to everything that we're trying to do. Glassman
9:15
just fired them up right here with that statement. He
9:20
just told the estate that he is ready to go
9:22
to trial and bring this.
9:24
Speaker 2: Before a jury.
9:25
Speaker 1: That is the absolute worst thing for Jeffrey Epstein's associates,
9:30
the worst thing for his estate, and it most certainly
9:33
is not going to be a good situation for Indiker Khan.
9:37
Can you imagine getting that Jerry summons and sitting on
9:40
that jury pool and learning all of this stuff that
9:43
we know, just the circumstantial stuff that we're privy to.
9:46
Imagine you compound that with what the Feds already know,
9:51
with the case that they're building, and you're sitting on
9:54
the jury.
9:56
Speaker 2: Forget it. These dudes are in big trouble.
9:58
Speaker 1: They better figure this out, and they better appease these survivors.
10:03
Lawyers for the estate have previously asked the court to
10:06
dismiss some of Doe's claims as beyond the statue of limitations.
10:11
The lawyers for the co executors have also encouraged Doe
10:14
to participate in an alternative resolution program established by the
10:18
Epstein Estate, which launched last month after protracted delays. Yeah,
10:23
of course, Like I said, they do not want Discovery,
10:28
no matter what they say. This includes Alan Dershowitz. This
10:32
includes Prince Andrew, This includes George Mitchell, This includes Bill Richardson,
10:38
This includes Glenn Dubin. This includes Lex Wexner. None of
10:43
these people want Discovery because that is where the rubber
10:47
meets the road. Do you think it's a coincidence that
10:50
Gilain Maxwell settled out of court before Discovery with Virginia.
10:56
Speaker 2: Of course it wasn't.
10:57
Speaker 1: They all understand the stakes and they understand that if
11:00
they go to Discovery it is absolute hammer time. The
11:08
details in Doe's lawsuit, which was filed in January against
11:11
the Epstein Estate and Maxwell, are substantially similar to the
11:15
allegations pertaining to one of the three minor survivors included
11:19
in the federal charges against Maxwell, who is accused in
11:22
a six count indictment of assisting, facilitating, and contributing to
11:28
Epstein's alleged abuse of three minor girls between nineteen ninety
11:32
four and nineteen ninety seven. This is significant as well.
11:36
So if the claims are as similar as they appear
11:41
to be, not only is Jane Doe spearheading, along with Annie,
11:48
the criminal portion of Gulay Maxwell's downfall, she is now
11:53
hammering their estate as well. So, Jane Doe, if you're
11:57
listening to this podcast, by any off chance, good for you.
12:01
Way to stand up for yourself and.
12:04
Speaker 2: Go for the throat. Get it all, whatever you can
12:07
get out of these people. You have earned it. Get
12:10
it all.
12:13
Speaker 1: Jane Doe is their first known victim and subsequently abused
12:16
by Epstein and Maxwell for years as a young girl,
12:19
suffering unimaginable physical and psychological trauma and distress. Her complaints said,
12:25
I can only imagine. I can only imagine. And for
12:28
people who act like, oh, it's about the money, the
12:31
money is a small little part of what these girls
12:34
are owed by these scumbags and society as a whole,
12:37
if you want the truth of it, because all of us,
12:40
me included, everybody who ignored this story when it was
12:44
happening originally, well, I mean really, and to ignore it
12:51
after you know about what has occurred, I can't even imagine.
12:55
But what Jane Doe suffered at the hands of these
12:58
people for years. Of course, she deserves whatever sort of
13:03
compensation is coming her way. I hope it is seven
13:08
figures for all of these girls, every last one of them.
13:11
And I hope that the estate is left penniless when
13:14
it's all said and done. Maxwell pleaded not guilty to
13:18
the charges out of hearing earlier this week and was
13:21
ordered held without bail pending trial Inly pending trial in
13:25
July twenty twenty one. That trial data set for July twelfth,
13:29
twenty twenty one, a week after Maxwell's July second arrest
13:33
in New Hampshire. Her attorney filed an answer to Doe's
13:36
lawsuit denying the claims, while also noting the overlap between
13:40
the lawsuit and the criminal case against Maxwell in New York.
13:44
And now, remember the other case in Presca's court was
13:51
also delayed for a while, so there was things going
13:55
on behind the scenes that we weren't privy to. But
13:59
when Maxwell got the case delayed and it was pushed
14:04
back because of the criminal case, that is when you
14:07
really knew the writing was on the wall and that
14:10
Maxwell and the co conspirators were about to get got
14:16
and the rumbling started a few weeks before the arrest,
14:21
but they were there. There were some clear signs that
14:23
something was occurring. Miss Maxwell's denials of factual allegations in
14:30
Endo's lawsuit shall be interpreted the same as pleading not
14:34
guilty to the various counts in any criminal indictment, wrote
14:37
Laura Meninger, a lawyer who has represented Maxwell in civil
14:41
litigation for five years. And Laura Manager has been trying
14:46
to run that same kind of story with Gilaine Maxwell
14:49
since the beginning, right, and she has been unsuccessful in
14:56
her pleading with the court for the most part. So
15:01
I am not shocked to see that Gilaine Maxwell added
15:05
a couple of high profile lawyers to help steer her
15:08
clear of the charges. Hopefully in her mind right, she
15:12
wants the best lawyers possible, and that's why they brought
15:14
in Everdell and Cohen because Manager, well, she seems to
15:20
be like to be a lawyer that mainly deals with
15:24
civil litigation and not such high profile cases. But I
15:28
do believe she is taking part as part of the
15:30
team in the criminal defense as well. As you know,
15:34
when you're facing a federal indictment such as Gilaine Maxwell is,
15:37
and you have the means you usually have a pretty
15:40
big team of lawyers working on your case. So I
15:43
would not be shocked to see menager with a pretty
15:45
prominent position. But of course she won't be the one
15:49
that is the trial attorney, right, She won't be the
15:52
one that is.
15:53
Speaker 2: Going in there and arguing it out at the trial.
15:59
Speaker 1: According to dose civil complaint, she first met Maxwell and
16:02
Epstein in nineteen ninety four and as a thirteen year
16:05
old student at a music camp in Michigan. A month's
16:08
long grooming process continued, she alleges after she returned home
16:12
to Florida, where Epstein had a seaside estate on Palm
16:15
Beach Island. Doe's father had recently passed away, the complaint said,
16:20
creating an opportunity for Epstein and Maxwell.
16:23
Speaker 2: To fill the void. How often have we heard this story? Huh?
16:26
Speaker 1: How many times have Gilain Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein and
16:30
the rest of their disgusting ass co conspirators preyed upon
16:35
somebody from a disadvantaged home, somebody from a broken home
16:40
due to, like here, a death in the family, or
16:43
parents who have their own problems with drugs or alcohol.
16:46
How many times have we seen it? And it is
16:48
them o that they used continuously.
16:51
Speaker 2: Over and over and over.
16:54
Speaker 1: Again, and it is absolutely obscene. Epstein gave himself the
17:03
name of Doe's godfather, while Maxwell acted like an older
17:06
sister to her. Her complaints said, they took her to
17:08
the movies, went shopping with her, and lounged around Epstein's
17:12
estate with her. That's part of the grooming process for
17:15
those of you out there that might not understand how
17:17
that occurs. They're looking to get her to feel comfortable,
17:20
to feel safe around them, and then to normalize their behavior,
17:24
and they were very good at that. When you have
17:27
people that are naive, and most people at that age are,
17:31
and you have somebody like Elaine Maxwell that comes in
17:34
and offers comfort to these young girls, they never thought
17:36
in their wildest dreams that this well thought, i mean,
17:39
this well spoken, prim and proper lady would be involved
17:43
in any sort of abuse against them, and that was
17:46
all part of the plot. Dough now thirty nine alleges
17:51
the abuse escalated over the next few years as Epstein
17:54
and Maxwell asserted more and more control over her life
17:57
and aspirations. Stein paid for voice lessons, private high school tuition,
18:03
and even co signed the lease on a New York
18:05
City apartment for Doe and her mother, according to her complaint,
18:09
And again, that's what he would do. He would use
18:11
his money, he would use his power, and he would
18:14
offer these these girls just a little sliver of something.
18:19
And when you have never had nothing, and you've you've
18:23
been poor your whole life, well even a little bit
18:26
of nothing is better than nothing at all. Right, And
18:30
a lot of these girls will lie to Oh, you're
18:32
gonna get a job doing this, or we'll hook you
18:34
up and you'll you'll be a model for Virginia's Secret
18:38
or whatever it may be.
18:39
Speaker 2: It was all part of the grooming process.
18:42
Speaker 1: And that is why Elaine Maxwell is so so intricate
18:46
in what went on with Jeffrey Epstein's criminal enterprise. Do
18:51
not let her get off as a victim. Do not
18:53
let her get off as somebody who was just, oh uh,
18:56
a wilting lily, wilting lily, because that is not who
19:01
she was. Kilaine Maxwell had a leadership role. Klaine Maxwell
19:06
was calling the shots from behind the scenes, the shadow boss.
19:14
She claims the abuse occurred at Epstein's homes in Florida,
19:17
New York and his ranch in New Mexico, and that
19:20
she would often travel to those locations with Epstein and
19:23
Maxwell on one of Epstein's private jets. Again, New Mexico
19:27
is an absolute shit show. How is there not an
19:31
investigation going on by the State of New Mexico? Are
19:35
you people kidding me right now?
19:38
Speaker 2: Hy way? You got better things to do.
19:41
Speaker 1: What exactly is going on in New Mexico that you
19:45
can't find the time to go kicking the door at
19:47
Zoro Ranch? How many girls have to come out and
19:50
say they were abused there? How many sources have to
19:53
come forward and say this occurred, and yet on a
19:57
local level, all we get from them is, oh, we're
20:00
sharing information with the sdn Y. I don't know about you,
20:04
but if I was a local in New Mexico, I
20:07
would be demanding a state investigation into this. Epstein's system
20:14
of abuse was facilitated in large part by his co
20:17
conspirator and accomplice, Maxwell, who helped supply him with a
20:21
steady stream of young and vulnerable girls. The complaint said,
20:25
many of whom were fatherless like Jane Doe and came
20:28
from struggling families. I love that they call her a
20:31
co conspirator and accomplice here, because that is the fitting terminology.
20:35
Not socialite, okay, not ex girlfriend. Nice try setting up
20:40
the defense for them, but it's not going to cut it.
20:44
Those cases one of just a few civil actions against
20:47
the Epstein estate that are being actively litigated. Most of
20:51
the pending lawsuits have been put on hold by alleged
20:54
survivors while they submit their claims to the Alternative Resolution program.
20:58
And again, I'm all for that program, and as long
21:02
here's the thing, it really doesn't matter what any of
21:05
us think about it, as long as the as long
21:07
as the survivors are okay with what goes on when
21:10
it comes to the justice here, people getting arrested and
21:14
the compensation program, that should be all that matters to anybody, honestly,
21:19
because for so long they were told that they were liars,
21:22
they were told that none of this ever happened. And
21:25
now Jeffrey Epstein's estate is about to pay out six
21:30
hundred and fifty five million dollars to these very same
21:35
girls that they painted as liars.
21:37
Speaker 2: You know what that's called, my.
21:38
Speaker 1: Friends, That is called validation of claim. Epstein's estate is
21:45
valued at more than six hundred and fifty five million dollars,
21:48
according to a May fifth filing in probate court in
21:50
the US Virgin Islands, where Epstein owned a private island
21:53
compound that served as its primary residence since twenty ten.
21:59
The criminal indict against Maxwell is likely to further complicate
22:03
those efforts to obtain evidence and testimony necessary to pursue
22:07
her civil claims. It is expected that Maxwell will eventually
22:12
seek to pause the case, at least as it pertains
22:14
to her, while the criminal case against her is pending.
22:19
And that's pretty normal for situations like this, right, They'll
22:23
they'll suspend one of the trial, the trials obviously the
22:27
civil the civil side, and they'll continue with the criminal side,
22:30
and then after they can finish up the civil portion
22:33
of it.
22:34
Speaker 2: But again, it's not like.
22:37
Speaker 1: Elaine Maxwell was just some you know, uh passenger on
22:42
this trip, okay, And Jane Doe explains very clearly how
22:48
disgusting Glaine Maxwell was. Very clearly that Glaine Maxwell.
22:53
Speaker 2: Was part of the abuse, and.
22:57
Speaker 1: All of the evidence that has been provided also paints
23:00
the same picture. Gelaine Maxwell is looking at never seeing
23:09
the light of day again, folks. And to be honest
23:15
with you, I don't think she should this is somebody
23:22
who was involved in a reign of terror basically for decades,
23:26
and she has no remorse. In fact, it looked like
23:29
she was ready to bug out up in New Hampshire,
23:32
two hours away from the Canadian border. You mean to
23:35
tell me she has no contacts in Canada. You mean
23:39
to tell me there are no private airfields that she
23:42
could have been swooped away to and then off on
23:44
a flight back to France. That's really out of the
23:48
realm of possibility when we're dealing with people of means
23:51
such as Gilaine Maxwell. Of course it's not. Of course,
23:55
it's not so this criminal case. Her only out here
24:05
is to serve up some huge names. And when I
24:09
say out, I don't mean she's gonna get off, because
24:11
she's not gonna get a plea deal like you're thinking,
24:13
where she gives up names and she walks scott free.

24:19
this lady's in big trouble. She's facing basically life in prison,
24:24
and there is no hope on the horizon. As the
24:28
allegations continue to come hot and heavy from every corner,
24:38
I wonder, is Prince Andrew sweating or has his disease
24:47
gone away, because at this point where we are right now,
24:54
the end is near for all of these people. If
