- 0:00Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace, Breaking news tonight.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Message to Bondie, Pam Bondie, the US Attorney General release
- 0:15Speaker 2: the files, the Jeffrey Epstein files in case you need clarification, Bondie, you.
- 0:22Speaker 3: Promised, now deliver. I'm Nancy Grace. This is Crime Stories.
- 0:27Speaker 2: I want to thank you for being with us, joining
- 0:30Speaker 2: me now an all star panel to make sense of
- 0:32Speaker 2: what we are learning. Tonight, Dylan Howard is with US
- 0:36Speaker 2: investigative journalist and author of Epstein Dead Man, Tell No Tales.
- 0:39Speaker 3: But first I'd like you to listen to this.
- 0:43Speaker 4: What you're going to see hopefully tomorrow is a lot
- 0:48Speaker 4: of flight logs, a lot of names, a lot of information.
- 0:51Speaker 4: But it's pretty sick what.
- 0:54Speaker 3: That man did.
- 0:55Speaker 4: A source had told me where the documents were being
- 0:59Speaker 4: kept southern to strict of New York's shock. So we
- 1:02Speaker 4: got them all by, hopefully all of them Friday at
- 1:05Speaker 4: eight am, thousands of pages of documents. I have the
- 1:07Speaker 4: FBI going through them. Director of Patel is going to
- 1:10Speaker 4: get us a detailed report as to why the FBI
- 1:15Speaker 4: withheld all of those documents.
- 1:17Speaker 2: From my friends at Fox twenty five, Dylan Howard, that
- 1:20Speaker 2: was Pam Bondy, the US Attorney General, promising, and I've
- 1:26Speaker 2: got so many clips of her promising out the Ying Yang,
- 1:30Speaker 2: promising the release of the Epstein files, and at that
- 1:33Speaker 2: point blaming the hold up on the Southern District of
- 1:36Speaker 2: New York, which I accepted. I accepted that at the
- 1:38Speaker 2: time I had no reason to disbelieve her or to
- 1:41Speaker 2: believe a nefarious intent on anyone's mind, anyone including the
- 1:47Speaker 2: Southern District. But now, really, she just referred to thousands
- 1:53Speaker 2: and thousands and thousands of pages of files, and now
- 1:57Speaker 2: we're being told there's nothing in there. Were not releasing them.
- 2:00Speaker 2: If there's nothing in there, why not release them? Mister Howard, Well,
- 2:04Speaker 2: this is.
- 2:04Speaker 5: A cover up of epic proportions, and not just because
- 2:08Speaker 5: of the national discord over the last week. That is
- 2:12Speaker 5: President Donald Trump's alleged ties to Jeffrey Epstein's No, we've
- 2:16Speaker 5: known that for decades, and we've known that they had
- 2:18Speaker 5: a friendship leading up to Epstein's two thousand and five
- 2:22Speaker 5: investigation in Florida. Now, Trump obviously campaigned on a desire
- 2:28Speaker 5: for transparency. This is the antithesis of it. The reality
- 2:33Speaker 5: was that what was released in that so called phase
- 2:36Speaker 5: one of epstein files being dumped on the American public
- 2:40Speaker 5: was nothing new. What we know is that there are
- 2:44Speaker 5: tens of thousands of documents related to Epstein that the
- 2:49Speaker 5: Southern District of New York, a division of the Department
- 2:54Speaker 5: of Justice, and the FBI are refusing to release. How
- 2:59Speaker 5: do we know that because one of the news outlets
- 3:01Speaker 5: that I own, Radar Online, first sued in twenty seventeen
- 3:08Speaker 5: the FBI for a full and frank disclosure of these
- 3:12Speaker 5: documents related to that two thousand and five case in Florida.
- 3:17Speaker 5: At the time, Nancy, we were stonewalled. Believe it or not,
- 3:21Speaker 5: the Southern District of New York invoked Jeffrey Epstein's privacy
- 3:26Speaker 5: rights over those of the dozens of victims at the
- 3:30Speaker 5: center of that case in Florida. Then Epstein dies. Was
- 3:35Speaker 5: it suicide or was it murder? Still, the Southern District
- 3:40Speaker 5: of New York wouldn't release the files. Fast forward to
- 3:44Speaker 5: last year and a US judge in the Southern District
- 3:49Speaker 5: hands down a verdict against the news outlet, Radar Online
- 3:54Speaker 5: the news. The verdict there was that the information containing
- 3:57Speaker 5: those files could jeopardize any potential appeal of Epstein's accomplice
- 4:02Speaker 5: Gislaying Maxwell. Well, that is now under appeal, and what
- 4:06Speaker 5: is evident in now recently filed appeal is that there
- 4:10Speaker 5: are more than eleven thousand documents that have not been
- 4:13Speaker 5: released to the public around this child sex trafficking ring.
- 4:19Speaker 5: And one must ask themselves at this hour is the
- 4:24Speaker 5: rights of Jeffrey Epstein and Gislaying Maxwell being protected over
- 4:29Speaker 5: those of what the DOJ has now said are more
- 4:33Speaker 5: than one thousand victims of the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking ring.
- 4:39Speaker 2: I'm very curious as to why the documents are not
- 4:44Speaker 2: being disclosed now. Dylan Howard, you suggest a nefarious relationship
- 4:49Speaker 2: between Trump and Epstein. Many celebrities take photos that later
- 4:55Speaker 2: they wish they hadn't taken. Photos alone. Do not decay
- 5:01Speaker 2: wrongdoing on behalf of Trump. But I will tell you
- 5:05Speaker 2: what is a smoking gun to me? We were told
- 5:10Speaker 2: the documents would be released. Now we're being told there's
- 5:15Speaker 2: nothing to see. If there's nothing to see, why not
- 5:20Speaker 2: release them? Who if anyone is being no.
- 5:24Speaker 3: Naty, I'm not go ahead, please.
- 5:26Speaker 5: No Nazi. I'm not suggesting an afarious link between Trump
- 5:29Speaker 5: and Epstein. What I'm saying is that there has been
- 5:31Speaker 5: a search for an afarious link between Trump and Epstein.
- 5:35Speaker 5: But I think that it obscures somewhat the real crux
- 5:38Speaker 5: of the matter here, and that is that there is
- 5:41Speaker 5: significant intelligence in the hands of the Department of Justice
- 5:45Speaker 5: and the FBI that has not been released to the
- 5:48Speaker 5: American people. And we know that through various motions that
- 5:53Speaker 5: have been put forward in various civil cases in which
- 5:56Speaker 5: the SDNY the Southern District of New York has argued
- 6:00Speaker 5: that the release of those Epstein files could quote reasonably
- 6:04Speaker 5: be expected to interfere with a potentially.
- 6:09Speaker 2: I've never seen prosecutors so worried about the interests of
- 6:16Speaker 2: a convicted felon. I eat Julane Maxwell. And this goes
- 6:21Speaker 2: back to before Bondie. The promise that these documents would
- 6:25Speaker 2: be released and that any co conspirator would be prosecutor
- 6:29Speaker 2: goes all the way back to Attorney General William Barr.
- 6:33Speaker 6: This case will continue on against anyone who was complicit
- 6:39Speaker 6: with Epstein. Any co conspirators should not rest easy.
- 6:44Speaker 2: Yeah, that's my friends at CBS, And apparently all of
- 6:48Speaker 2: the allergic co conspirators are in fact resting easy tonight
- 6:54Speaker 2: because apparently the files are not going to be released.
- 6:59Speaker 2: I've never seen anything like it, and all my years
- 7:03Speaker 2: of investigating and prosecuting, let's just remind everyone what this
- 7:08Speaker 2: case is about. Listen to Virginia Jiffry, one of the
- 7:12Speaker 2: five individuals who allegedly committed suicide connected to the Epstein case.
- 7:18Speaker 3: You said, take off your clothes.
- 7:20Speaker 7: I had these little girl undies on, like little hearts
- 7:23Speaker 7: on them, I remember, and they were laughing at that
- 7:26Speaker 7: because they liked that the younger you look, the better
- 7:29Speaker 7: it is. It turned into it turned very sexual, and
- 7:33Speaker 7: it was abused straight away from both of them. I
- 7:37Speaker 7: had been a runaway and I had been abused before.
- 7:40Speaker 7: So to have this, you know, ability to get educated
- 7:44Speaker 7: and do something with my life, I thought I was
- 7:46Speaker 7: turning around.
- 7:46Speaker 2: That's for my friends at Miami Harold and ITV News
- 7:49Speaker 2: and Lifetime Dylan Howard, That's what this case is all about.
- 7:54Speaker 2: The trafficking and exploitation of what we now believed to
- 7:58Speaker 2: be thousands of little girls. Now, why on God's green
- 8:03Speaker 2: Earth would we not want to release files about the
- 8:07Speaker 2: desecration and the victimization of little girls entirely correct?
- 8:12Speaker 5: Nancy, at the very heart of This lies a very
- 8:16Speaker 5: deep and disturbing question. If Jeffrey Epstein was operating a
- 8:20Speaker 5: child's sex ring, was he doing it for his own
- 8:22Speaker 5: sexual proclivities or was he doing it for a perhaps
- 8:26Speaker 5: far more nefarious cause. And I think the answer lies there.
- 8:31Speaker 5: As you pointed out, there are dozens of individuals whom
- 8:34Speaker 5: have been linked to Jeffrey Epstein, but their names never
- 8:37Speaker 5: been revealed as part of this so called client list. Now,
- 8:42Speaker 5: something else that Virginia Duffrey said, of course, she committed
- 8:46Speaker 5: suicide earlier this year, was left in a diary that
- 8:49Speaker 5: she wrote, and she said that she used to be
- 8:54Speaker 5: filmed by Epstein's hidden cameras. And what we've learned is
- 8:59Speaker 5: that Epstein's various properties dotted throughout the United States and
- 9:04Speaker 5: his so called Orgy Island, had cameras in every room.
- 9:10Speaker 5: They fed back into a central computer room where a
- 9:14Speaker 5: classic blackmail and honeytrap operation was being run. That according
- 9:20Speaker 5: to various sources whom I've spoken to over the course
- 9:23Speaker 5: of the last decade.
- 9:24Speaker 2: And your point is that those videos exist and they.
- 9:28Speaker 3: Have not been released.
- 9:30Speaker 2: And speaking of video, now rearing its ugly head is
- 9:36Speaker 2: the accusation that the jail video has been edited from
- 9:43Speaker 2: the night of Epstein's death. His own brother refuses to
- 9:49Speaker 2: call it a suicide.
- 9:51Speaker 8: Listen to this challenging ag Bondi's claim of one minute
- 9:54Speaker 8: of Epstein prison video is missing due to a daily reset.
- 9:58Speaker 8: Wired reports the video was cut together in Adobe Premiere
- 10:02Speaker 8: pro from two video files. If true, this contradicts the
- 10:06Speaker 8: Justice Department claimed that footage was raw. Metadata from the
- 10:10Speaker 8: raw Epstein prison video shows approximately two minutes and fifty
- 10:13Speaker 8: three seconds were removed from one of two stitched together clips,
- 10:18Speaker 8: and the cut starts right at the missing minute.
- 10:24Speaker 9: Jeffrey Epstein, is it true, sir, that you have what's
- 10:32Speaker 9: been described as an egg shaped.
- 10:37Speaker 10: Form?
- 10:38Speaker 11: Vague in definite and I'm going to give you the
- 10:40Speaker 11: first one in, mister Peuterman that these types of questions
- 10:44Speaker 11: are not only argumented, but directly in a manner to
- 10:47Speaker 11: embarrass mister Epstein. If you continue with this type of question,
- 10:51Speaker 11: I will join the deposition.
- 10:52Speaker 9: Immediately, sir. According to the Police Department's probable cause affidavit,
- 10:58Speaker 9: one witness described your is oval shaped and claim when
- 11:04Speaker 9: it was thick towards the bottom but was thin and
- 11:07Speaker 9: small towards the head portion and called it egg shaped.
- 11:10Speaker 9: Those are not my words.
- 11:11Speaker 2: I apologize Jeffrey Epstein's deposition that we got our mints on. Now,
- 11:17Speaker 2: who in the world would have seen his penis and
- 11:21Speaker 2: be able to describe it in such elaborate detail. It's
- 11:27Speaker 2: referred to in police documents as a witness, which, of
- 11:31Speaker 2: course that witness.
- 11:32Speaker 3: Is a victim.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Who else would be speaking to police to describe Epstein's genitalia.
- 11:40Speaker 2: That would be one document in the many, many thousands
- 11:45Speaker 2: of documents that we are being denied. Now, if there's
- 11:51Speaker 2: nothing in the files, why aren't they being released? BONDI
- 11:57Speaker 2: promised they would be released, yet now abrupt about face.
- 12:02Speaker 2: Much of the suspicion of the government at this juncture
- 12:07Speaker 2: has to relate to videos, videos specifically taken in the
- 12:14Speaker 2: homes of Epstein around the world, flight logs where he
- 12:18Speaker 2: would apparently faery celebrities, millionaires, and more, back and forth
- 12:25Speaker 2: to his so called Lolita Island where underage girls perform
- 12:31Speaker 2: sex acts. But in my mind, I'm concerned more so
- 12:37Speaker 2: about the video from behind jailhouse walls the night Epstein died. Now,
- 12:46Speaker 2: keep in mind there are five suicides connected to the
- 12:52Speaker 2: Epstein investigation. Who are they number one, obviously Epstein number two,
- 12:59Speaker 2: his French counterpart, the French Epstein who was accused and
- 13:05Speaker 2: behind bars on supplying under age girls.
- 13:09Speaker 3: Who else, Virginia's You're Free?
- 13:12Speaker 2: And two other Epstein victims, all who could have testified.
- 13:19Speaker 2: So there's a spate of suicides connected to the Epstein case.
- 13:24Speaker 2: Like in Russia, whenever someone speaks out, they end up
- 13:30Speaker 2: jumping off of a balcony or they're seriously poisoned. And
- 13:34Speaker 2: we talk about Russia. There are five suicides connected to
- 13:42Speaker 2: the Epstein case. How much more does the government expect
- 13:46Speaker 2: us to believe? And I'm not a conspiracy theorist. I've
- 13:50Speaker 2: been on the side of law enforcement since they murdered
- 13:54Speaker 2: my fiance decades ago.
- 13:57Speaker 3: But this is clearly wrong. Let's talk about that jailhouse video.
- 14:01Speaker 8: Listen in a deep dive into the metadata embedded in
- 14:03Speaker 8: the video presented to the American people as quote. Raw
- 14:07Speaker 8: Wired published analysis indicating the file was assembled from at
- 14:11Speaker 8: least two different source cliffs saved multiple times over a
- 14:14Speaker 8: period of more than three hours on May twenty third,
- 14:17Speaker 8: twenty twenty five. The file was then created at four
- 14:20Speaker 8: forty eight pm and last modified at eight sixteen PM
- 14:24Speaker 8: the same day and uploaded to the Justice Department's website,
- 14:27Speaker 8: where the edited clip is presented as raw footage.
- 14:31Speaker 2: Dave matt Crime Stories investigative reporter who has poured through
- 14:35Speaker 2: countless documents and interviews. Dave Matc We first heard that
- 14:40Speaker 2: there was a glitch in the video recording system where
- 14:45Speaker 2: Epstein was housed behind bars.
- 14:48Speaker 3: There were a lot of glitches that.
- 14:51Speaker 2: Night, weren't there, Dave mac Two guards on duty in
- 14:56Speaker 2: view of Epstein. He could see them, and they could
- 15:00Speaker 2: see him. They didn't have to watch the surveillance video.
- 15:04Speaker 2: Both of them either fell asleep or went online shopping
- 15:08Speaker 2: at the time he committed suicide. But it's not just
- 15:13Speaker 2: one minute. There's not just one minute missing from the
- 15:18Speaker 2: jail house video, is there?
- 15:20Speaker 12: Dave Mac correct Nancy that one minute that Attorney General
- 15:26Speaker 12: Bondi has been popping about the reset of the video
- 15:29Speaker 12: at eleven fifty eight fifty eight, saying that was because
- 15:33Speaker 12: it was a nineteen ninety nine system. Well, that might
- 15:37Speaker 12: be explainable if that was the only problem here. But
- 15:41Speaker 12: in total, two minutes and fifty three seconds of video
- 15:46Speaker 12: appears to have been manipulated and is missing. They're able
- 15:51Speaker 12: to go in and look at these computer programs and
- 15:53Speaker 12: how they're used. They can tell when you make a
- 15:55Speaker 12: cut in the video, and when you join two separate
- 15:58Speaker 12: pieces together. They can look see from your keyboard strokes
- 16:02Speaker 12: everything that's been done to the point where they're able
- 16:05Speaker 12: to see how this piece of video was cut, how
- 16:07Speaker 12: it was been saved. Another piece is cut and saved,
- 16:12Speaker 12: and then the two pieces are brought together. The problem
- 16:15Speaker 12: is when you do all that and then present it
- 16:17Speaker 12: as supposed raw footage.
- 16:20Speaker 2: And it was absolutely titled raw footage, raw footage which
- 16:25Speaker 2: means unedited. But you could see the jumps as we
- 16:28Speaker 2: call them in this business, the jumps video.
- 16:31Speaker 3: Is spliced together. I mean, I'm not even an expert
- 16:35Speaker 3: in that. I just know a little bit about it.
- 16:38Speaker 3: But I happen to have an expert with me right now.
- 16:41Speaker 2: Todd Shipley is joining US digital cyber crime expert, former
- 16:44Speaker 2: detective sergeant with the Reno Police, twenty five years in
- 16:49Speaker 2: elle law enforcement and author surviving cyber attack, securing social
- 16:54Speaker 2: media and protecting your home, Author of investigating Internet crimes.
- 16:58Speaker 2: It goes on and on and on. His expertise is
- 17:01Speaker 2: this helped me out?
- 17:03Speaker 3: Shipley?
- 17:03Speaker 13: Well, I think like everybody s already said, these are
- 17:06Speaker 13: not the law videos. I've looked at the both of
- 17:08Speaker 13: the videos that they provided for download, and needed video
- 17:14Speaker 13: is the original video. They both have been edited. Now
- 17:17Speaker 13: does that mean it's not the real video. No, but
- 17:19Speaker 13: they compiled both of the videos that they allowed for
- 17:23Speaker 13: release and edited them using commercial tools. So it's clear
- 17:29Speaker 13: that the state in the United States government did not
- 17:33Speaker 13: provide us with the raw video that they promised.
- 17:36Speaker 2: The disturbing aspect is that number one, the video has
- 17:42Speaker 2: been edited of that night.
- 17:43Speaker 3: That's the most disturbing aspect.
- 17:44Speaker 2: But number two that it was released to us titled
- 17:49Speaker 2: raw video.
- 17:51Speaker 3: A lot of excuses have been made about.
- 17:54Speaker 2: The glitch, but we are now detecting between two and
- 18:00Speaker 2: three minutes missing from the jail house video. Now, if
- 18:05Speaker 2: you look at that video, you see that only visible
- 18:12Speaker 2: is the elevator and stairwell leading onto that particular cell block.
- 18:18Speaker 2: Doctor Dwayne Hendrix joining me, former Associate Warden in MDC,
- 18:23Speaker 2: former Senior Warden, US Department of Justice. It goes on
- 18:27Speaker 2: and on and on. Author, who are you see it?
- 18:30Speaker 2: Say it sees it? Doctor Hendrix?
- 18:33Speaker 3: Where's the video?
- 18:36Speaker 2: I see the video of the elevator and the stairwell
- 18:39Speaker 2: that would indicate anyone coming in.
- 18:41Speaker 3: Or off the cell block.
- 18:42Speaker 2: But what about the people already on the cell block,
- 18:47Speaker 2: the inmate neighbors and others on the cell block.
- 18:51Speaker 3: Where's the video.
- 18:52Speaker 14: Well that They should have various angles in that special
- 18:55Speaker 14: housing unit to show pretty much all the doors within
- 19:00Speaker 14: that unit. Each each institution is mandated to record at
- 19:05Speaker 14: least fifteen days prior anything that goes on in that unit.
- 19:10Speaker 14: So when the investigator show up, showed up the after
- 19:13Speaker 14: Action team, they should have been able to see all
- 19:15Speaker 14: the footage from the prior fifteen days on that special
- 19:20Speaker 14: housing unit. Now, in terms of the branch, I.
- 19:25Speaker 2: Hear you talking about the fifteen days prior to Epstein's death.
- 19:30Speaker 2: I'm talking about that, not that's all I want. All
- 19:32Speaker 2: I'm seeing is a door in the elevator. What about
- 19:36Speaker 2: the other inmates? Hendrix, where's the you alluded to other angles.
- 19:44Speaker 14: They should have been recording and the staff and facilities,
- 19:47Speaker 14: those communication technicians. If there were any issues with those cameras,
- 19:52Speaker 14: they that should have been they should have been aware
- 19:54Speaker 14: of that. Now when the after Action team came, I
- 19:57Speaker 14: think the After Action team came within a few after
- 20:00Speaker 14: mister Epstein's death. That would have been something that would
- 20:03Speaker 14: have been talked about immediately and right away. So I
- 20:08Speaker 14: would beg to think in an after action import from
- 20:12Speaker 14: the incident of his death or his apparent suicide, that
- 20:16Speaker 14: would have been something that would have been definitely a
- 20:19Speaker 14: major part of that investigation. So that's where that information
- 20:24Speaker 14: will come from.
- 20:30Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace.
- 20:35Speaker 2: Joining me now is Joseph Scott Morgan. He is Professor
- 20:38Speaker 2: forensics Jacksonville State University, author of Blood Beneath My Feet,
- 20:42Speaker 2: and he is a star of a hit podcast, Body
- 20:44Speaker 2: Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan.
- 20:47Speaker 3: Jo Scott, thank you for being with us.
- 20:49Speaker 2: Don't you find it a tiny bit of coincidence that,
- 20:52Speaker 2: according to experts I put on the stand, it takes
- 20:56Speaker 2: a human between two and three minutes to die of
- 20:59Speaker 2: asphyxiation or less or less than two to three minutes,
- 21:04Speaker 2: and the glitch in the video.
- 21:08Speaker 3: Is about three minutes. Doesn't that bother you?
- 21:10Speaker 15: Of course it does, and i'd I've worked diks in
- 21:14Speaker 15: jails over the course of my career in Atlanta and
- 21:16Speaker 15: New Orleans, and one of the things that we talk
- 21:20Speaker 15: about when we are investigating disks within correctional facilities, is
- 21:25Speaker 15: who observed them, When was the last time they were
- 21:27Speaker 15: seeing what are the points of observation relative to this,
- 21:32Speaker 15: Because this is what it breaks down to, is that
- 21:34Speaker 15: the government at this point in time is the caretaker
- 21:38Speaker 15: of these individuals. They have assumed that role and they
- 21:42Speaker 15: did not have eyes on this individual during this period
- 21:45Speaker 15: of time. There has to be door to door accountability
- 21:49Speaker 15: for every second. And from a death investigation perspective, this
- 21:54Speaker 15: should be a no brainer. This should be something that
- 21:56Speaker 15: is so easy to walk through. But as it turned out,
- 22:00Speaker 15: Nancy that arguably this is one of the most controversial
- 22:04Speaker 15: death investigations of this current century that we're in right now,
- 22:08Speaker 15: and it should be something that's very very simple.
- 22:10Speaker 8: Information has not been released about the inmates and sells
- 22:13Speaker 8: adjacent to Epstein. In the days leading up to his death.
- 22:16Speaker 8: There were twelve to fourteen inmates near Epstein, but no
- 22:19Speaker 8: information about who the inmates were, when the inmates were
- 22:22Speaker 8: placed in the cells near Epstein, how long the individuals
- 22:25Speaker 8: had been in jail, when were they moved, and where
- 22:28Speaker 8: did they go. Mark Epstein says one of the inmates
- 22:31Speaker 8: had been in the cell area for a time prior
- 22:33Speaker 8: to Epstein's arrest and subsequent attainment, and another died after
- 22:36Speaker 8: Epstein's death. No information is available about the other ten
- 22:40Speaker 8: to twelve inmates in the area when Epstein died.
- 22:43Speaker 2: US Attorney General Pam Bondy insisting there's nothing to see here,
- 22:47Speaker 2: there's no client lists. Where now not releasing the files? Okay, Bondy,
- 22:53Speaker 2: you want to tell me that this.
- 22:55Speaker 3: Name wasn't in the files.
- 22:58Speaker 16: Listen, I don't believe it's a picture of me in
- 23:00Speaker 16: London because when I go out to when I go
- 23:02Speaker 16: out in London, I wear a suit and a tie.
- 23:06Speaker 10: That's me.
- 23:06Speaker 16: But whether that's my hand or whether that's the position,
- 23:11Speaker 16: but I don't. I have simply no recollection. The photograph
- 23:15Speaker 16: is taken upstairs, and I don't think I ever went upstairs.
- 23:21Speaker 17: In Galln's house.
- 23:22Speaker 2: But you can't even spit it out, sweating profusely shifting this.
- 23:27Speaker 3: Jerry's lying. You want to tell me that the name
- 23:32Speaker 3: of the number.
- 23:33Speaker 2: Of Prince Andrew of Wales, that one is not in
- 23:38Speaker 2: those files. I would bet everything I have that his
- 23:43Speaker 2: name is in his files. And if his name is
- 23:47Speaker 2: in the files, who else is in the files?
- 23:50Speaker 3: The files were not seeing because BONDI lied.
- 23:54Speaker 2: That was my our friend's over at BBC News and
- 23:57Speaker 2: there's more watch this train wreck.
- 23:59Speaker 17: And I've said consistently and frequently that we never had
- 24:07Speaker 17: any sort of sexual contact whatever.
- 24:09Speaker 2: Joining me now a veteran trial attorney, former felony prosecutor
- 24:14Speaker 2: out of the Atlanta jurisdiction, Daryl Cohen, Darryl Cohen, if
- 24:19Speaker 2: you or I had withheld information in a case, a
- 24:25Speaker 2: felony case, we would be disbarred, We would be censured.
- 24:32Speaker 3: Daryl Cohen.
- 24:33Speaker 2: Of course, you know in every case the defense argues,
- 24:36Speaker 2: oh we didn't get this, Oh we didn't get that.
- 24:39Speaker 3: This is on a biblical scale. Cohen Nancy.
- 24:43Speaker 10: First of all, my philosophy of life and trial strategy
- 24:48Speaker 10: is you have nothing to hide, that hide nothing, So
- 24:52Speaker 10: the question becomes why is it being hidden? In terms
- 24:55Speaker 10: of the victims, I understand withholding their names.
- 25:00Speaker 18: As you have pointed out on the show, and many
- 25:02Speaker 18: people have pointed out, there have been five homicides, five
- 25:07Speaker 18: self deaths, people have committed suicide.
- 25:12Speaker 10: If these victims come out, if her name, whoever she
- 25:17Speaker 10: may be, she may find that her life is not
- 25:20Speaker 10: only ruined from before, but ruined for the rest of
- 25:23Speaker 10: her life. So I understand that, but there is a
- 25:26Speaker 10: way of explaining that, not hiding all of the evidence.
- 25:30Speaker 10: Not suddenly two different videos minus a minute minus two minutes.
- 25:37Speaker 10: It makes no sense. And so if you want people
- 25:41Speaker 10: to have conspiracy theories, hide it. Continue to hide it,
- 25:45Speaker 10: and the theories will expand, expand and expand. So what
- 25:50Speaker 10: we need to have is transparency. I've heard the word,
- 25:55Speaker 10: but the word has to be followed. Let the public
- 25:59Speaker 10: know as much as you can. And if you don't
- 26:02Speaker 10: let the public know why this person is not named,
- 26:07Speaker 10: then you've got a problem. But let them know. These
- 26:10Speaker 10: were young girls. These were girls whose lives have forever
- 26:14Speaker 10: been changed, and if their name comes out, it may
- 26:18Speaker 10: be even worse.
- 26:19Speaker 2: In addition to alleged client lists, and again it may
- 26:22Speaker 2: not be a proverbial little black book.
- 26:24Speaker 3: It could be.
- 26:25Speaker 2: Names, phone calls, memos, emails, travelogs, video surveillance at Epstein's
- 26:33Speaker 2: various homes and getaways to reveal or create a so
- 26:39Speaker 2: called client list. I don't expect the FEDS to open
- 26:42Speaker 2: up a file and go, oh, here's three hundred names,
- 26:45Speaker 2: this must be the client list.
- 26:46Speaker 3: It's not that easy.
- 26:48Speaker 2: That's why we've got about eleven thousand documents that need
- 26:51Speaker 2: to be released.
- 26:53Speaker 3: They're not.
- 26:55Speaker 2: There's so many disturbing facts about this. Not only the
- 26:59Speaker 2: fact that many people, including Epstein's own brother, who does
- 27:02Speaker 2: not have a pecuniary or money interest in the outcome,
- 27:05Speaker 2: insist that this was not a suicide of Epstein, but
- 27:09Speaker 2: there are five five suicides in all. Straight Back out
- 27:16Speaker 2: to Dylan Howard, joining US investigative journalist. He is the
- 27:19Speaker 2: author of Epstein Dead Men Tell No Tales. Dylan, again,
- 27:26Speaker 2: I want to thank you for being with us. You
- 27:28Speaker 2: have researched this so heavily. Five dead bodies, and they
- 27:33Speaker 2: all what a cowenkidink commit suicide before they can testify.
- 27:39Speaker 3: Wow, indeed, now detail please.
- 27:42Speaker 5: Earlier this year we saw the death of Virginia Geoffrey,
- 27:45Speaker 5: who is perhaps the most notable of Jeffrey Epstein's victims
- 27:48Speaker 5: by virtue of the fact that she alleged Prince Andrew
- 27:53Speaker 5: was one who raped her. But significantly, there was another
- 27:57Speaker 5: death in custody, this time on the other side of
- 28:00Speaker 5: the Atlantic in Paris, a gentleman by the name of
- 28:03Speaker 5: John Luke Brenell, who was also accused of similar pinous
- 28:07Speaker 5: crimes like Jeffrey Epstein. Now here's the rub that makes
- 28:12Speaker 5: this particularly interesting. Jean Luke Brenell was the co founder
- 28:17Speaker 5: and CEO of a number of modeling agencies. Modeling agencies,
- 28:23Speaker 5: of course, are known for their use of young women
- 28:26Speaker 5: and underage women for major campaigns. Now Brunell was found
- 28:31Speaker 5: dead by suicide inside his Parisian jail. But this also
- 28:37Speaker 5: opened up an entire other can of worms. And last
- 28:40Speaker 5: week in the US Senate we heard that Jeffrey Epstein
- 28:45Speaker 5: trafficked not only human beings, but more than one billion
- 28:50Speaker 5: dollars across various countries. We don't know how we amassed
- 28:55Speaker 5: a fortune, an individual with little to know financial expertise,
- 29:00Speaker 5: how we amassed such a fortune. And guess what, Nancy,
- 29:03Speaker 5: He funded the modeling operations of John Luke Brennell in Paris.
- 29:09Speaker 2: I mean Dylan Howard joining us Dylan for Epstein's day
- 29:13Speaker 2: job where he amassed millions and millions and millions of dollars.
- 29:17Speaker 3: He basically had one client.
- 29:19Speaker 2: He was like a wealth advisor, you know, trying down
- 29:22Speaker 2: the street to Wells Fargo and they'll have a wealth advisor,
- 29:24Speaker 2: you know, to tell you what to do with your.
- 29:26Speaker 3: Children's college fund blah blah blah. That's what he did.
- 29:29Speaker 3: He had one client, true, a rich client.
- 29:32Speaker 2: But there's no way in hubl that he got all
- 29:35Speaker 2: that money from wealth advising one client.
- 29:40Speaker 3: I mean, did they think we all just fill off
- 29:42Speaker 3: the turnip truck because we didn't?
- 29:44Speaker 5: Oh the DEMI, where.
- 29:45Speaker 3: Did all that money come from?
- 29:47Speaker 2: And I want to talk to you about Jean Luke Breunell.
- 29:50Speaker 2: All right, he died behind.
- 29:52Speaker 3: Bars, just as you said.
- 29:54Speaker 2: But the circumstances around his death have not been made public,
- 29:59Speaker 2: right they have not?
- 30:01Speaker 5: They have not? Why there are theories out there that
- 30:06Speaker 5: his death was similar to that of Epstein. And one
- 30:10Speaker 5: thing that needs to be explored not only is this
- 30:13Speaker 5: alleged cover up of the tape, it is also how
- 30:18Speaker 5: was Jeffrey Epstein able to be given the means to
- 30:23Speaker 5: be able to commit suicide if that's what he did
- 30:26Speaker 5: behind bars in New York City? Because the reality is, well.
- 30:30Speaker 2: You're about to pass a brick if you get my understanding.
- 30:33Speaker 2: When Joe Scott Morgan explains to you why he a
- 30:36Speaker 2: death investigator with over one thousand death scenes under his belt,
- 30:40Speaker 2: says this is not a suicide.
- 30:43Speaker 3: But back to.
- 30:44Speaker 2: Brunei Brunell, the French Epstein, as he has been called.
- 30:49Speaker 3: Jean Luke Brunell. Why do I care about him?
- 30:52Speaker 2: Because he is a freak, was a frequent companion of Epstein's,
- 30:58Speaker 2: and he, like Epstein, was detained at an airport because
- 31:05Speaker 2: of a US launched investigation into Epstein. So what do
- 31:12Speaker 2: you think he would tell authorities to save his own skin,
- 31:17Speaker 2: tell authorities about Epstein, about Epstein's clients. But he never
- 31:24Speaker 2: got to do that because he ended up dead and
- 31:27Speaker 2: no one will tell us why. So what happens over
- 31:30Speaker 2: in a Parisian jail cell actually matters in this case,
- 31:35Speaker 2: Dylan Howard. So we've got Jean Luke Brennell, but there is,
- 31:40Speaker 2: of course Epstein. There is Virginia Geoffrey, who is sitting
- 31:44Speaker 2: on a boatload of money from her Prince Andrew's settlement,
- 31:48Speaker 2: has a beautiful mansion, and then suddenly, after she wins,
- 31:53Speaker 2: she kills herself. Then we have Caroline on Giannao, an
- 32:01Speaker 2: Epstein victim, and leap sky Patrick another Epstein victim. Could
- 32:07Speaker 2: they have testified to who their clients were? But we'll
- 32:12Speaker 2: never know because they're all dead, Dylan.
- 32:15Speaker 5: That's entirely correct, Nancy but that's not to say that
- 32:18Speaker 5: the death of a number of these people that were
- 32:21Speaker 5: alleged victims of Jeffrey Epstein were indeed nefarious. What we
- 32:25Speaker 5: do know about Virginia Jewfree is that she was going
- 32:29Speaker 5: through a very difficult time as a result of being
- 32:31Speaker 5: catapulted at a young age, at the tender teenage years
- 32:36Speaker 5: of her life, to be catapulted into this scandal. So
- 32:40Speaker 5: I'm not a subscriber that Virginia Jewffree was off, if
- 32:43Speaker 5: you like, But what I can tell you is my
- 32:46Speaker 5: own knowledge from having spoken to a number of victims
- 32:49Speaker 5: of Epstein. These young girls that have matured in life
- 32:55Speaker 5: have gone on to live scared and paranoid lives, feeling
- 33:00Speaker 5: like and in some instances, knowing that they have been followed,
- 33:05Speaker 5: them pointing the blame back at people like Epstein and Maxwell,
- 33:10Speaker 5: who they believe terrorized them throughout the course of their
- 33:14Speaker 5: criminal trials, all with one pursuit to zip them up,
- 33:19Speaker 5: to keep them quiet, to frighten them from testifying, and
- 33:23Speaker 5: to ensure that potentially people like Maxwell and Epstein were
- 33:27Speaker 5: able to potentially secure their own futures.
- 33:37Speaker 1: Crime stories with Nancy Grief.
- 33:43Speaker 2: Joining me now is a renowned forensic psychologist, TV radio
- 33:46Speaker 2: trauma expert and consultant. It's Karen Stork at Karenstork dot com. Karen,
- 33:52Speaker 2: thank you for being with us. Jumping off of what
- 33:55Speaker 2: Dylan Howard just said, as if these victims hadn't been
- 33:59Speaker 2: through for Pete SAgs afraid has photos, yet people still
- 34:03Speaker 2: claims she's a liar. Right now, the bodies are piling
- 34:10Speaker 2: up and the government refuses to release the files.
- 34:16Speaker 3: This is rubbing salt in the wounds of the victims.
- 34:20Speaker 2: But also I would find it very scary that when
- 34:23Speaker 2: people speak out, they are alambasted in public, they meet misfortune.
- 34:28Speaker 19: These were girls who were under age. Their brains were
- 34:32Speaker 19: not developed. You don't develop to your in your twenties,
- 34:35Speaker 19: and their lives are crushed. They're terrified. They see people dying.
- 34:41Speaker 19: They have not been able in many, many instances. I
- 34:44Speaker 19: even know one of them. They don't have normal lives.
- 34:48Speaker 19: This changes everything, the picture of your future, and so
- 34:53Speaker 19: it's awful. It's just terrible that this continues and that
- 34:57Speaker 19: we don't get to the bottom of what's going on.
- 35:01Speaker 2: It's not just about a client list, a little black
- 35:04Speaker 2: book or videos.
- 35:06Speaker 3: It's about a potential murder. Yes of Epstein.
- 35:11Speaker 2: You may not care about his life, but don't you
- 35:15Speaker 2: care about the truth. Don't you want to know what
- 35:19Speaker 2: really happened and what happened to the other four people
- 35:22Speaker 2: connected to this case? You all committed suicide. Well, take
- 35:27Speaker 2: a listen to doctor Michael Boden.
- 35:30Speaker 20: There were fractures of the left, the right thyroid cartilage,
- 35:37Speaker 20: and the left hyoid bone. I have never seen three
- 35:42Speaker 20: fractures like this in a suicidal hanging. Sometimes there's a
- 35:47Speaker 20: fracture of the higher bone or a fracture of the
- 35:50Speaker 20: thyroid cartilage. Going over over one thousand jail hangings suicides
- 35:55Speaker 20: in the New York City State prisons over the past
- 35:58Speaker 20: forty to fifty years, no one had three fractures.
- 36:02Speaker 2: I have questioned doctor Michael Boden on many occasions, and
- 36:07Speaker 2: he is truly brilliant.
- 36:10Speaker 3: Joining me now.
- 36:12Speaker 2: Is Joseph Scott Morgan, death investigator, professor of forensics, Jacksonville
- 36:17Speaker 2: State University, author and star of Body Bags That Joe
- 36:21Speaker 2: Scott Morgan hit Podcast All That Aside. He has investigated
- 36:26Speaker 2: over one thousand deaths, be the suicide, homicide, accidental, natural causes,
- 36:36Speaker 2: all of them. Everything in the book he's investigated it. Okay,
- 36:42Speaker 2: Joe Scott again, thank you for being with us. I
- 36:45Speaker 2: need you and I need you. Now explain what Biden's
- 36:50Speaker 2: talking about.
- 36:51Speaker 15: Okay, before we get to what he said about the
- 36:53Speaker 15: internal findings. It's very important, Nancy, that we understand the
- 36:56Speaker 15: external findings on Epstein's body. When you have a hanging, okay,
- 37:03Speaker 15: you begin to think about the body being supported. Right,
- 37:06Speaker 15: So we have a ligature here. We're talking about a
- 37:09Speaker 15: hanging where an individual is supported. You've got a point
- 37:12Speaker 15: of contact here, and you get a feature on the neck.
- 37:15Speaker 15: With hangings, that's called tintinge n ting, not like car windows,
- 37:22Speaker 15: but like a pup tent. The actual furrows go up
- 37:25Speaker 15: behind the ears, Nancy, that doesn't exist with Epstein. It
- 37:30Speaker 15: goes parallel to the shoulders. If you look at the
- 37:33Speaker 15: ligature mark around his neck, and this is the external thing,
- 37:36Speaker 15: you'll see this kind of dry, a braided area that
- 37:39Speaker 15: runs parallel to his neck. Listen to a person when
- 37:43Speaker 15: this happened. There were many of us that saw those
- 37:45Speaker 15: images saying, this doesn't look like a typical hanging. Okay,
- 37:49Speaker 15: how in the hell do you explain that? Where does
- 37:52Speaker 15: that come from? That's not something that you normally see.
- 37:54Speaker 15: Here we have the hyoid, it's fractured. That's the greater
- 37:57Speaker 15: horn Nancy. That does happen with homicidal strangulations. Over the
- 38:03Speaker 15: course of my career in Nancy, I've had one case
- 38:07Speaker 15: that I recall that was not a homicide, where I
- 38:11Speaker 15: had a fractured highwoid, and that was a car accident
- 38:14Speaker 15: with an old car where guy fell off of an
- 38:17Speaker 15: abutment thirty three stories hit his neck on there. You
- 38:21Speaker 15: have to have direct pressure and then to think about
- 38:24Speaker 15: that that's going to be generated by this cloth that's
- 38:28Speaker 15: on the floor. The deeper the furrow, the narrow the cord.
- 38:32Speaker 15: They're trying to sell us this idea that this was
- 38:35Speaker 15: in fact the strips of material that are torn up
- 38:39Speaker 15: in this pigsty of a cell that this guy was
- 38:42Speaker 15: living in. I don't see how you can make sense
- 38:45Speaker 15: of it. THEO investigators, Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, just
- 38:49Speaker 15: not hold on.
- 38:49Speaker 2: You mentioned the disarray in Epstein's cell. Doctor Dwayne Hendricks
- 38:54Speaker 2: is joining us. He is the expert former Associate Warden MDC. Brooklyn,
- 38:59Speaker 2: the former c your Warden US Department of Justice. This
- 39:02Speaker 2: is not allowed, doctor Hendrix. I've been in so many jails, penitentiaries,
- 39:07Speaker 2: gimvy jails, you name it, halfway houses, blah blah blah.
- 39:10Speaker 2: I can get on. That's not allowed in a jail cell.
- 39:15Speaker 2: That is not allowed for many reasons. Succinctly explain why.
- 39:21Speaker 14: One for sanitary reasons and safety reasons. I mean they
- 39:25Speaker 14: ripped clothes to make clothes lines.
- 39:28Speaker 2: Yes, I hate to be doctor Hendrix. I like you,
- 39:32Speaker 2: but that's not why that is not allowed. Because we
- 39:35Speaker 2: don't want to have a messy inmate. Eh what no
- 39:39Speaker 2: safety is because it's a danger it is.
- 39:44Speaker 14: You're right, it's safety and security. And when someone walks
- 39:47Speaker 14: up to that cell and looks through that that little
- 39:50Speaker 14: small window and that shoe cell with should have told
- 39:53Speaker 14: him to get take that stuff down, give me those
- 39:56Speaker 14: extra seats, give me those extra clothes, and get this stuff.
- 39:59Speaker 20: Out to sell.
- 40:00Speaker 14: There is no way that self should like.
- 40:04Speaker 2: A teenage girl's nasty dormitory.
- 40:07Speaker 3: Put the picture back up, Hendrix.
- 40:10Speaker 2: Don't you know how many inmates, how many would want
- 40:14Speaker 2: to tear that sheet up and get a warden like
- 40:17Speaker 2: you around the net with it.
- 40:20Speaker 3: That's why that is not allowed.
- 40:23Speaker 2: And I have been in so many jails again, Hendrix,
- 40:26Speaker 2: I can't even count them that.
- 40:29Speaker 3: I've never seen anything like that in my life. Why, Hendrix, Why.
- 40:36Speaker 14: This is obviously what we're saying is a huge neglect
- 40:41Speaker 14: in basic correctional fundamentals, and that's running a safe, humane
- 40:46Speaker 14: and clean environment. And there's no way that this individual
- 40:50Speaker 14: should have had all those extra sheets, been able to
- 40:53Speaker 14: accumulate all this extra material to put himself in a
- 40:57Speaker 14: last position to commit suicide. So, in a nutshell of
- 41:01Speaker 14: that is the reason why they should have happened.
- 41:03Speaker 1: Or be murdered.
- 41:05Speaker 2: Again, I don't know who his inmate neighbor was. We
- 41:08Speaker 2: haven't been given those files. They're in the files that
- 41:11Speaker 2: were going to be really so, Joe Scott Morgan, what's
- 41:13Speaker 2: the single most probative fact regarding Epstein's body?
- 41:20Speaker 15: I think I think probably this level of trauma that
- 41:24Speaker 15: you're seeing that is just inconsistent with what doctor Mike
- 41:28Speaker 15: had said, Nancy, that this is not consistent with a
- 41:32Speaker 15: suicidal event. This is consistent with what you see relative
- 41:37Speaker 15: to a homicidal event. And it's not just that greater
- 41:39Speaker 15: horn that's fractured there on the hyoid, Nancy, we also
- 41:43Speaker 15: have bilateral cartilage fractures that are on either side. That
- 41:47Speaker 15: requires a tremendous amount of pressure, either through a ligature
- 41:51Speaker 15: that's directly applied or through throddling where the hands are used,
- 41:55Speaker 15: and that is snap. You're not going to get this
- 41:58Speaker 15: kind of dynamic.
- 41:59Speaker 2: And Dylan Howard again guys joining us author of Epstein
- 42:02Speaker 2: dead men tale, no tales, and it is incredible by
- 42:06Speaker 2: the way, I've had read every word of it.
- 42:08Speaker 3: Dylan Howard, correct me if I'm wrong.
- 42:10Speaker 2: You've got the death of Epstein, his own brother says
- 42:13Speaker 2: it was a murder. He does not have a money
- 42:16Speaker 2: interest in that. You've got the death of Epstein, which
- 42:19Speaker 2: is shrouded in mystery. You've got the death of Jean
- 42:22Speaker 2: Luke Brunnell, which is also shrouded in mystery, which is
- 42:25Speaker 2: the French Epstein that worked with Epstein. And then the
- 42:29Speaker 2: other three. You've got two of them accidental over Josephs.
- 42:35Speaker 2: And then you've got your phrase. So we're never going
- 42:39Speaker 2: to know the truth if they don't release those files,
- 42:42Speaker 2: are we, Dylan Well?
- 42:43Speaker 5: The FBI do O J Meno said Nancy that no
- 42:46Speaker 5: further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted. I couldn't think
- 42:51Speaker 5: of anything more perilous than that statement. For transparency's sake
- 42:57Speaker 5: and for closure on this matter. If there is ever
- 43:01Speaker 5: to be closure, the full FBI and Department of Justice
- 43:05Speaker 5: report needs to be released so that the American public
- 43:09Speaker 5: can weigh in and make its own judgment, because we
- 43:12Speaker 5: are not trusting of our government institutions to have told
- 43:17Speaker 5: us the truth about this scandal from day one.
- 43:20Speaker 3: Bondy, Yeah, you release the files.
- 43:25Speaker 2: How can you put your head on your pillow at
