The DOJ Continues To Insist That The Epstein Jail Video Was NOT Missing A Minute (7/29/25)

Former President Trump’s repeated denials and distractions are intensifying the Epstein controversy rather than defusing it. Despite his claims of cutting ties with Jeffrey Epstein—such as citing a falling-out over employees and denying visits to Epstein’s private island—Trump’s name reportedly appears in newly surfaced documents, and he was even briefed about Epstein-related matters by then–Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi. His constant insistence that any questions about Epstein are a “hoax” has only deepened public suspicion, particularly among members of his own base who expected transparency and accountability. By refusing to address his past relationship with Epstein in a clear, candid way, Trump has allowed unanswered questions to fester.At the same time, Trump has leaned heavily into his usual playbook of political distractions—attacking opponents, manufacturing controversies, and pushing sensational narratives to draw attention away from his Epstein ties. He’s raged about everything from sports team names to the Federal Reserve, all while ignoring the growing pile of Epstein-related headlines that continue to surface. This strategy, once effective, now appears desperate and disjointed. The more Trump attempts to deflect, the more the Epstein issue dominates the conversation, undermining his credibility and fueling speculation. In trying to outrun the story, Trump is only dragging it closer.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell, currently serving a 20‑year sentence for sex‑trafficking convictions, signaled willingness to testify before Congress—but only on a strict set of terms. In a letter to House Oversight Committee Chair Rep. James Comer, her attorney David Markus spelled out that Maxwell would require formal immunity from prosecution, advance access to all deposition questions, a venue outside of prison, and a delay in testimony until after her appeal, including a potential Supreme Court review, is resolved. Markus even floated the possibility of presidential clemency, stating that under such conditions, Maxwell would be “willing—and eager—to testify openly and honestly, in public, before Congress.” Otherwise, she plans to invoke her Fifth Amendment rights and refuse to answer questionsHowever, the Oversight Committee promptly rejected her request to be granted immunity. In a response to Maxwell’s letter, the committee reaffirmed that it will not consider offering congressional immunity as a precondition for her testimony and has declined to accommodate her other stipulated conditions. With Maxwell’s cooperation effectively hinging on assurances that lawmakers have refused to entertain, the invitation to testify remains in a legal and political stalemate.Also:President Trump stated that he severed ties with Jeffrey Epstein after discovering that Epstein had repeatedly “stolen” young women who worked at the spa in Trump’s Mar‑a‑Lago resort—referring specifically to employees being “taken out of the spa, hired by him.” Trump said this betrayal prompted him to ban Epstein from the club, and when asked about Virginia Giuffre—one of Epstein’s most well-known accusers—he replied that he believed she worked at the spa and was among those “stolen,” despite having “no complaints” about Mar‑a‑Lago herself.     to contact me:[email protected]:Ghislaine Maxwell wants immunity or a pardon before congressional deposition - CBS NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In her sworn deposition from 2016 (unsealed in 2020), Virginia Giuffre detailed how Ghislaine Maxwell recruited, groomed, and trafficked her into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation starting when she was 16. She testified that Maxwell approached her at Mar-a-Lago in 2000 under the pretense of offering her work as a masseuse for a wealthy benefactor. That “job” quickly evolved into sexual abuse. According to Giuffre, Maxwell took an active role in teaching her how to sexually service Epstein, including hands-on “training” sessions involving Maxwell herself. She stated that Maxwell instructed her to recruit other underage girls and was fully aware — and involved — in the trafficking scheme. Maxwell not only facilitated the abuse, Giuffre claimed, but also participated in it, organizing flights, outfits, and sex schedules for Epstein and his associates.Giuffre’s deposition also included accusations that she was trafficked to powerful men at Maxwell’s direction. She named Prince Andrew, Alan Dershowitz, Jean-Luc Brunel, Bill Richardson, George Mitchell, and Glenn Dubin among the men she was forced to have sex with — often in Epstein’s residences or on his private jet, the “Lolita Express.” Giuffre detailed incidents of sexual abuse at Epstein’s private island (Little St. James), in Maxwell’s London townhouse, and at Epstein’s New York and Palm Beach homes. She described Maxwell’s role as operational: coordinating travel, preparing the girls, dictating what to wear (often schoolgirl outfits), and ensuring silence through emotional manipulation and threats. Giuffre testified that Maxwell told her to be “grateful” and warned her that speaking out would have consequences — including death. Throughout the deposition, Giuffre emphasized that she was a minor being trafficked across state and international lines, and that Maxwell was not only aware but orchestrating every detail. Her statements were corroborated years later by other victims and led to Maxwell’s 2021 conviction on sex trafficking and conspiracy charges.to  contact me;[email protected]:1090-32.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Annie Farmer testified during Ghislaine Maxwell’s federal trial that she was just 16 years old when Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein flew her to Epstein’s ranch in New Mexico under the guise of an academic retreat. Farmer explained that she initially believed the trip was meant to provide her with educational and career opportunities. Instead, she said the experience quickly turned uncomfortable and exploitative. She recalled Maxwell giving her a massage during which Maxwell touched her breasts, an incident that left her feeling frozen and terrified. She also testified that Epstein had climbed into her bed unexpectedly and caressed her without consent. Farmer described feeling "panicked" and manipulated by two adults who had promised mentorship and safety.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell reportedly commissioned a British songwriter, Christopher Mason, to craft a bespoke birthday song for Jeffrey Epstein’s 40th birthday around January 1993. Maxwell is said to have dictated highly specific lyrics that praised Epstein for having “24‑hour erections” and referenced “schoolgirl crushes” he allegedly received while teaching at the Dalton School. The tone was deliberately crude and salacious, intended as a personalized roast-style tribute delivered at an intimate dinner attended by wealthy and powerful men, including Epstein and Leslie Wexner.Accounts detail how Maxwell strictly controlled the creative process—limiting Mason to working exclusively with her and forbidding contact with others to gather background. In what Christopher Mason described as a surreal performance, he entered a drawing room mid-party dressed in Epstein’s karate uniform and sang the bawdy, insult‑laden number a cappella. The song reportedly elicited laughter and applause from the elite audience. Mason later reflected that Maxwell's detailed direction was chilling in its prescience—highlighting behaviors and allegations that would become central to the Epstein scandal decades later.to contact me:[email protected]:https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/12235042/ghislaine-maxwell-jeffrey-epstein-24-hour-erections/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Ghislaine Maxwell, speaking from prison, claimed that meeting Queen Elizabeth II was one of the "greatest honours" of her life. In the interview, she said they connected over their shared love of horses and described the Queen as “one of the most exceptional women I’ve ever had the honour and privilege of meeting.” Maxwell did not provide a specific date or setting for the meeting, but framed the interaction with reverence, emphasizing how meaningful the experience was to her personally. The comments appeared in a rare jailhouse interview, and reflect her continued effort to portray herself as a figure once welcomed in elite circles.This remark is consistent with Maxwell’s broader pattern of clinging to the prestige of her former social connections—even as she serves a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking minors. It fits with her repeated attempts to rewrite her public image, painting herself as both misunderstood and once-admired among royals and aristocracy.to contact me: [email protected]:Ghislaine Maxwell says meeting the Queen was one of the 'greatest honours of her life' | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In its motion opposing Ghislaine Maxwell’s appeal, the Department of Justice argued that the 2007 non-prosecution agreement (NPA) between Jeffrey Epstein and the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of Florida did not and could not shield Maxwell from prosecution in a different jurisdiction. The DOJ emphasized that Maxwell was not a signatory to the agreement and that the language of the NPA did not expressly bind federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York. By reinforcing that the agreement applied only to Epstein and only within Florida’s jurisdiction, the government maintained that Maxwell’s prosecution was not only lawful but well within constitutional and statutory boundaries.The DOJ also dismantled several of Maxwell’s other appellate claims, including challenges related to the statute of limitations, juror misconduct, and alleged flaws in jury instructions. Prosecutors argued that the indictment fell squarely within the allowed time frame under the applicable federal laws governing crimes against minors, and that the lower court acted within its discretion in denying Maxwell’s request for a new trial. They also rejected the notion that the jury had been misled or that any aspect of the charges had been constructively amended. The motion concluded by urging the Second Circuit—and ultimately the Supreme Court—not to disturb the conviction or sentence, framing Maxwell’s appeal as a meritless attempt to relitigate settled issues.to contact me:[email protected]:US government urges appeals court to uphold Ghislaine Maxwell's sex trafficking conviction | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The document MJ v. Jeffrey Epstein, Case No. 9:10-cv-81111-WPD, filed on September 17, 2010 in the Southern District of Florida, involves a civil lawsuit brought by a plaintiff identified as “MJ” against Jeffrey Epstein. According to publicly available summaries of this and similar filings from the same time period, MJ was a minor at the time of the alleged abuse. The complaint accuses Epstein of sexually abusing and trafficking MJ while exploiting his wealth and power to silence and control her. MJ alleged that Epstein engaged in a pattern of recruiting underage girls under the guise of offering them money for massages, only for the encounters to turn sexually exploitative. The suit contends that Epstein used his Palm Beach residence as a base for this operation and that he was enabled by associates who helped him procure and manipulate the victims.The complaint further claims that Epstein committed multiple violations of federal and state laws, including sexual battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and violations of civil rights statutes protecting minors. MJ's legal team argued that the long-term psychological damage from Epstein’s abuse warranted significant compensatory and punitive damages. The case forms part of a broader group of lawsuits filed by various women against Epstein around that time, many of whom described nearly identical patterns of abuse. These cases contributed to the growing body of evidence surrounding Epstein’s trafficking network long before his 2019 arrest and death.to contact me:[email protected]:gov.uscourts.flsd.365238.1.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
