Birthright of Shame: Virginia Roberts and the Truth About Prince Andrew (10/16/25)

In his October 2009 deposition, taken during the Jeffrey Epstein v. Bradley Edwards defamation lawsuit, longtime Epstein pilot Larry Visoski described his decades of employment under Epstein and the routine nature of his work. Questioned by victims’ attorney Bradley Edwards, Visoski confirmed that he had flown Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and numerous guests—some of them prominent figures—across Epstein’s properties in New York, Florida, New Mexico, and the Virgin Islands. Represented by Critton & Reinhardt, Visoski repeatedly emphasized that his duties were strictly professional: piloting aircraft, maintaining schedules, and ensuring safe transport. When pressed about the ages of female passengers, he claimed he never knowingly flew minors and denied witnessing any sexual activity or misconduct aboard Epstein’s planes.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Ever since Ghislaine Maxwell was moved from a higher-security facility in Tallahassee to the minimum-security Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas, whispers of special privileges have swirled. Inmates and prison consultants say she’s getting “hotel-guest treatment”—meals delivered to her cell, private visits in the chapel while others are locked down, solo yard time, and generally softer security protocols. Her arrival reportedly triggered more frequent lockdowns, added armed guards, and even a facility “cleanup” beforehand, which many see as signs she’s not being treated like a typical prisoner.Experts and former corrections officials call the move deeply unusual. Maxwell, convicted of aiding Epstein’s trafficking of minors and serving a 20-year sentence, typically wouldn’t qualify for camp status at all—especially with her “public safety factor” as a sex offender. The fact that she was allowed into a prison known for lax fences, dormitory housing, and relatively lenient conditions is fueling suspicion that her cooperation with federal prosecutors (including interviews about Epstein’s network) earned her perks. Critics argue this undermines both justice for survivors and public trust in the prison system.to contact me:[email protected]:Ghislaine Maxwell granted unusual privileges at minimum-security prison | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Prince Andrew’s downfall isn’t just a scandal — it’s a slow-motion collapse of entitlement meeting consequence. Virginia Giuffre’s memoir tore away the last shreds of his royal insulation, exposing a man who genuinely believed that abusing her was his birthright. That word alone sums up everything sick about the system that created him — the idea that status excuses cruelty, that power erases guilt. He wasn’t just a man caught in Epstein’s web; he was one of its willing predators, shielded by titles and arrogance. His denials, his pathetic defenses, his crocodile regret — they all ring hollow because underneath it all is a man who never thought he’d have to answer for anything.Now he’s a national embarrassment — a walking monument to the rot of privilege. The world doesn’t see a prince anymore; it sees a coward who bought silence and mistook it for redemption. He turned “royal duty” into a sick joke, dragging a thousand years of monarchy through the mud just to protect his own skin. The palace can pretend he’s a private citizen now, but his disgrace stains the crown he once served under. No PR team can fix it. No amount of money can bury it. Prince Andrew will forever be remembered not for service or honor, but as the spoiled relic who thought rape was a privilege of birth — and found out, far too late, that the world had finally stopped bowing.to contact me:[email protected]:‘Prince Andrew believed having sex with me was his birthright’: Virginia Giuffre on her abuse at the hands of Epstein, Maxwell and the king’s brother | Jeffrey Epstein | The GuardianBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

A woman, filing under the pseudonym Jane Doe, has sued Bank of America and Bank of New York Mellon in Manhattan federal court, accusing them of playing a financial role in enabling Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation. She alleges that Epstein and his associates used her Bank of America account—opened at the direction of Epstein’s accountant—as a conduit for rent payments, payroll for a “sham company,” and other transfers. The complaint claims the banks ignored obvious red flags, failed to file required Suspicious Activity Reports in a timely fashion, and thereby breached their duty to report illicit financial flows.In the case against BNY Mellon, the lawsuit claims the bank processed as much as $378 million in transactions linked to a modeling agency (MC2) allegedly used by Epstein and his associates in trafficking operations. The complaint contends that BNY Mellon either turned a blind eye to or actively facilitated these flows, benefiting from them financially while violating anti-trafficking and anti–money laundering norms. The plaintiff seeks unspecified damages and class-action status, arguing that the banks “knowingly benefited” from Epstein’s scheme and should be held accountable.to contact me:[email protected]:Bank of America, BNY sued over alleged ties to Jeffrey EpsteinBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s unpublished memoir The Billionaire’s Playboy Club recounts her recruitment into Jeffrey Epstein’s world as a 16-year-old working at Mar-a-Lago, where she says Ghislaine Maxwell lured her in with promises of opportunity and travel. The manuscript describes how she became trapped in Epstein’s orbit, allegedly forced into sexual encounters with powerful men, including Prince Andrew, and ferried across his properties in New York, Florida, and the Virgin Islands. Giuffre paints a detailed picture of coercion, psychological manipulation, and the disturbing normalization of exploitation within Epstein’s high-society circle.In this episode, we begin our journey through that memoir.   to contact me:[email protected]:Virgina Giuffre Billionaire's Playboy Club | DocumentCloudBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell has given at least two notable interviews or testimony sessions while incarcerated, each stirring sharp debate over her motive and trustworthiness. In a televised prison interview, she expressed regret that she “wished she never met” Jeffrey Epstein, and insinuated that some widely circulated photographs involving her and others—especially the one with Prince Andrew and Virginia Giuffre—were not authentic or had been manipulated. During that interview, she portrayed herself as a fall-guy, blamed media exaggeration, and consistently denied involvement in recruiting minorsIn her prison interview with Daphne Barak, Ghislaine Maxwell repeatedly framed her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein as a profound mistake. She called meeting him “the greatest mistake of my life,” said her arrest in 2020 and denial of bail came as a total shock, and insisted she had never intended to flee the U.S. justice system. Maxwell also attempted to cast doubt on a widely circulated photograph showing her smiling beside Prince Andrew and Virginia Giuffre, saying she “didn’t recognize” it and believed it was not genuine.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Dean Kamen’s connection to Jeffrey Epstein has drawn increasing scrutiny due to overlapping travel records, shared associates, and questionable coincidences. Flight logs show Kamen traveled on Epstein’s private jet in 2003, and subsequent reports revealed that a former Epstein associate, pilot Nadia Marcinko—also known as “Gulfstream Girl”—had ties to Kamen’s DEKA Aviation facility in New Hampshire. Marcinko’s business was even registered at one of Kamen’s addresses, blurring the line between coincidence and collaboration. Kamen, a celebrated inventor, has denied any wrongdoing, but critics argue that his association with figures so deeply embedded in Epstein’s operations warrants far more investigation. Whether Kamen’s involvement was a matter of convenience, ignorance, or something darker remains unanswered—but the paper trail paints a picture that’s far from innocent.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jes Staley, the former CEO of Barclays, has seen his reputation and career unravel after revelations of a deeper-than-declared relationship with Jeffrey Epstein surfaced. Regulators found that Staley had misled both Barclays’ board and the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) by characterizing his bond with Epstein as merely professional, when a trove of emails and correspondence suggested otherwise. The FCA banned Staley from holding senior roles in the UK financial sector and fined him—punishments he challenged in court but largely failed to overturn.Beyond regulatory action, Staley and Barclays now face class-action lawsuits in the U.S. alleging investor deception: shareholders claim the bank and Staley downplayed Epstein links to protect stock prices. A judge recently rejected efforts to dismiss the case, allowing it to proceed. Meanwhile, Staley has publicly accused the FCA of trying to “destroy” him, insisting he mostly had a professional relationship with Epstein and that he was transparent with regulatorsto contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Prince Andrew is, without question, the author of his own nightmare when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein. Despite multiple warnings and clear public disgust surrounding Epstein’s 2008 conviction, Andrew continued to associate with him, even visiting Epstein’s Manhattan mansion after his release from jail. That image—Andrew strolling through Central Park with a convicted sex offender—cemented his reputation as a man either catastrophically naive or willfully blind. His judgment calls, from staying friends with Epstein to accepting his hospitality, revealed a stunning lack of awareness about optics, ethics, and basic decency. Rather than being an innocent caught in Epstein’s web, Andrew’s choices consistently pulled him deeper into it.The disaster reached its apex with the infamous 2019 Newsnight interview, where Andrew tried to clear his name but instead broadcasted his arrogance and detachment to the world. His bizarre claims about “not sweating” and his insistence that a Pizza Express visit cleared him of wrongdoing turned him into a global punchline. Every moment of that interview showcased a man trapped by his own lies, pride, and refusal to accept responsibility. In the end, Andrew’s downfall wasn’t authored by Epstein, the press, or his accusers—it was written entirely by his own hand.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Prince Andrew’s use of public money has long been a flashpoint for criticism, reflecting the uneasy tension between royal privilege and public accountability. During his tenure as the UK’s Special Representative for International Trade and Investment, Andrew racked up hundreds of thousands of pounds in taxpayer-funded travel and hospitality expenses each year—lavish costs that raised questions about whether his “official duties” were serving the nation or himself. His entourage’s frequent flights, luxury accommodations, and extravagant spending on overseas visits came under fire in Parliament, with critics accusing him of behaving like a jet-setting businessman rather than a public servant. When revelations about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein emerged, those same spending habits were revisited as evidence of a pattern—public resources used to sustain private indulgence.The controversy deepened with his legal settlement with Virginia Giuffre in 2022, reportedly worth millions of pounds. While Buckingham Palace and HM Treasury insisted no public funds were used to pay it, the lack of financial transparency around royal income fueled public skepticism. Critics noted that Andrew’s security, property maintenance, and other royal benefits remain covered by taxpayer money—despite his “retirement” from public duties. His finances remain shrouded in secrecy, prompting ongoing calls for an official register of royal interests and expenditures. For many, Andrew has come to symbolize the problem of unchecked privilege: a man shielded by the institution even as he drained the public purse.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
