After the Conviction: Why the Maxwell Smear Campaign Continues (2/23/26)

A new investigation reported that convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein covertly rented at least six storage units across the United States from as early as 2003 up until his death in 2019, allegedly using them to stash computers, CDs, photographs, and other materials linked to his homes and his private island Little Saint James. Financial records and emails reviewed by The Telegraph indicate Epstein paid private investigators tens of thousands of dollars to move equipment from his properties into these units ahead of police raids, raising the possibility that law enforcement never searched them and that they may still contain never-before-seen evidence connected to his sex trafficking network.Some of the emails suggest private detectives copied or “cloned” data from drives before storing them, and in one instance discussed holding potentially responsive computer materials requested by attorneys for a survivor of Epstein’s abuse. Other correspondence shows Epstein instructed aides to transfer items out of his Florida home when tipped off about impending warrants, and discussed the location of storage contents even while incarcerated in 2009. Because these external storage lockers appear never to have been searched by authorities, there is concern among journalists and investigators that crucial evidence – including digital files predating the trove released by the Department of Justice – could still be hidden from public view.to contact me:[email protected]:Jeffrey Epstein stashed secret files in storage units across US that may include unseen evidence: reportBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In a Telegraph interview highlighted by the New York Post, Ian Maxwell — brother of convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell — launched a forceful defense of his sister and an attack on Virginia Giuffre, one of Jeffrey Epstein’s most prominent accusers. Ian labeled Giuffre a “monster,” insisting her accusations had “devastating ramifications” for Ghislaine and framing his sister as a “scapegoat” for Epstein’s crimes. He argued that Ghislaine’s 20-year sentence was unfair and politically motivated, suggested the trial was flawed, and claimed that if Epstein were still alive he would be imprisoned while Ghislaine would be free. He attempted to compare her punishment to what he regarded as lighter sentences in other federal cases and lamented what he described as harsh treatment by the justice system and media.Maxwell also responded to Giuffre’s death by saying he “didn’t shed a tear” when she died by suicide in April, and portrayed his sister as the true victim in the broader scandal. He asserted that the government and media chose Ghislaine to pay the price for Epstein’s actions, defended her treatment in prison, and reiterated his family’s support for her. His remarks sparked controversy because they recast a widely recognized victim of trafficking as the antagonist and echoed broader debates over accountability and narrative control in the Epstein case.to  contact me:[email protected]:Ian Maxwell calls Virginia Giuffre a ‘monster’ in defense of GhislaineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

New Mexico has formally established a truth and accountability commission to examine Jeffrey Epstein’s activities within the state, focusing particularly on what occurred at his Zorro Ranch property near Santa Fe. Lawmakers and state officials moved to create the commission after years of criticism that allegations tied to the ranch were never aggressively pursued while Epstein was alive. The commission’s mandate includes reviewing law enforcement records, victim complaints, prosecutorial decisions, and inter-agency communications to determine whether investigative opportunities were missed. It is also tasked with evaluating whether local, state, or federal authorities failed to act on credible reports connected to Epstein’s presence in New Mexico. The formation of the commission reflects growing pressure from victims and advocacy groups who argue that the ranch was a significant operational hub that never received the scrutiny it warranted. Unlike prior fragmented reviews, this body is intended to conduct a comprehensive and public-facing examination. Its scope includes subpoena authority, witness testimony, and document analysis tied to Epstein’s time in the state. Officials have framed the effort as an overdue reckoning rather than a symbolic gesture. The commission represents an acknowledgment that prior oversight may have been inadequate. At its core, it is an attempt to reconstruct what authorities knew, when they knew it, and why enforcement did not escalate.The creation of the commission stems directly from the perception that there was a profound lack of investigation both during Epstein’s active years in New Mexico and in the immediate aftermath of his death. Despite persistent allegations and the visibility of Zorro Ranch, there were no sweeping state-level prosecutions tied specifically to conduct on the property. Critics argue that jurisdictional ambiguity between federal and local authorities allowed responsibility to diffuse rather than concentrate. After Epstein’s 2019 arrest and subsequent death, calls intensified for a state-level inquiry into whether earlier complaints had been documented but not pursued. The commission is therefore positioned not only to examine Epstein’s conduct but also to scrutinize institutional response failures. Its work may reveal whether resource limitations, deference to federal authorities, or other systemic weaknesses contributed to inaction. By reopening the record, New Mexico is signaling that unanswered questions about the ranch cannot remain dormant. The effort also reflects broader national skepticism about whether Epstein’s network was fully examined anywhere it operated. In practical terms, the commission seeks to close investigative gaps that persisted for decades. In symbolic terms, it represents a state acknowledging that accountability mechanisms previously fell short.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

We sit down with Agent X for a second time — not to rehash what was already said, but to dig deeper, press harder, and follow the paper trail farther into the parts of the story that were previously redacted or obscured. This follow-up conversation picks up where the first left off, sharpening lines of inquiry about who is being protected, how institutional mechanisms have worked to bury key records, and what concrete steps might finally force meaningful disclosure and accountability.The conversation with Agent X traced the Epstein investigation across its major fault lines: the current state of play, the suffocating role of politics, the systemic cover-up, and the powerful figures still being shielded. Agent X detailed how congressional hearings and DOJ disclosures amount to theater, offering redacted documents and staged outrage instead of prosecutions. Survivors have forced banks and institutions into settlements, but payouts have replaced accountability, and every redaction is another betrayal. The money trail — offshore accounts, banks turning a blind eye, hush payments disguised as philanthropy — remains the most dangerous evidence, one the system is determined to bury.Agent X described the machinery of the cover-up: the 2008 non-prosecution deal, sealed court filings, confidentiality clauses, compliant judges, cowardly prosecutors, political grandstanding, and media complicity. The likelihood of indictments for the most powerful players is slim without whistleblowers or leaks; the public should brace for more managed exposure and controlled disclosures. The core message was blunt — this case is a mirror showing that the system does not fail by accident but is structured to protect power. The only path to true accountability is relentless pressure: force the cracks wider, document by document, name by name.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Survivor testimonies and legal documents confirm that Jeffrey Epstein meticulously installed hidden cameras throughout his properties, especially at his Manhattan mansion, Palm Beach home, and New Mexico ranch. Maria Farmer—one of the first women to report Epstein to authorities—described walking into a “media room” where monitors replayed footage from pinhole cameras placed in bathrooms, bedrooms, and common areas. She recalled seeing repeated images of beds and toilets, and witnessing technicians actively monitoring these spaces—suggesting Epstein spied on his guests during intimate or private moments to gather leverage or blackmail material.Further evidence supports that Epstein stored binders of CD‑ROMs, hard drives, and labeled video files containing recordings of underage survivors and powerful individuals. One document reportedly includes “young [name] + [name]” written on discs locked in his New York safe. Virginia Giuffre’s posthumously released diary claims she was filmed being assaulted and that footage was used to extort influential figures—directly contradicting an FBI memo that stated no credible blackmail existed.to  contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

After Queen Elizabeth II’s death in September 2022, Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson took responsibility for her beloved corgis, Muick and Sandy. The pair had been gifts from Andrew to his mother during the pandemic, meant to provide companionship and comfort. They were moved to Royal Lodge in Windsor, where Sarah Ferguson has since embraced the role of caretaker, publicly calling the dogs “national treasures” and even remarking that she feels the Queen’s presence through them. The arrangement was presented as a fitting continuation of the late monarch’s bond with the breed, with Ferguson openly expressing gratitude for the chance to keep the Queen’s memory alive through the animals.to contact me:[email protected]:https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/prince-andrew-set-look-after-7570649Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The long-running battle to remove Prince Andrew from Royal Lodge has been less about real estate and more about status, optics, and consequence. Royal Lodge, a sprawling property in Windsor Great Park, became a symbol of Andrew’s continued proximity to royal privilege even after he stepped back from public duties following the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. As public pressure mounted and his formal roles were stripped away, questions intensified over why he continued to occupy one of the most prestigious royal residences. Reports indicated that King Charles sought to streamline royal finances and reduce the footprint of working royals, which in practice meant reassessing Andrew’s position at Royal Lodge. The property carries substantial upkeep costs, and critics argued that a non-working royal facing serious reputational damage should not retain such a high-profile residence funded, directly or indirectly, through royal resources.The dispute reportedly stretched over years, marked by negotiations, financial maneuvering, and quiet but persistent pressure to relocate Andrew to smaller accommodations, such as Frogmore Cottage. Andrew resisted, citing the long-term lease he holds on Royal Lodge and asserting that he had privately funded renovations and maintenance. The standoff became a proxy war over accountability: whether symbolic consequences would match the gravity of the scandal that engulfed him. While Andrew maintained his right to remain under the lease terms, the broader monarchy faced reputational strain so long as he continued residing there. The struggle over Royal Lodge ultimately reflected the tension between legal entitlement and public legitimacy, underscoring how deeply the Epstein fallout reshaped Andrew’s standing within both the Royal Family and public life.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In a now-publicized email from 2015, Prince Andrew wrote to Ghislaine Maxwell inquiring specifically about Virginia Roberts (now Virginia Giuffre), the woman who had publicly accused him of sexual abuse tied to Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking operation. The email, sent shortly after Roberts' allegations were made public, read: “Let me know when we can talk. Got some specific questions to ask you about Virginia Roberts.” The tone was casual, but the implication was clear—he was seeking information or clarification from Maxwell, who had long served as Epstein’s close associate and alleged co-conspirator in grooming underage girls.This email undermined Prince Andrew’s later claims of having no meaningful recollection of Virginia Roberts or the events she described. It showed that he not only knew of her existence, but was actively discussing her with Maxwell behind the scenes as legal scrutiny mounted. The correspondence was used to highlight inconsistencies in his public denials and cast further doubt on his defense, suggesting a coordinated effort to manage damage and control the narrative around Roberts’ accusations.To contact me:[email protected]:https://www.tatler.com/article/prince-andrew-asked-ghislaine-maxwell-for-information-about-virginia-roberts-giuffre-newly-released-depositionBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Michael Thomas was a veteran correctional officer employed by the Federal Bureau of Prisons at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan — a federal detention facility — where Jeffrey Epstein was being held in the Special Housing Unit (SHU) while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges. Thomas had been with the Bureau of Prisons since about 2007 and, on the night of Epstein’s death (August 9–10, 2019), was assigned to an overnight shift alongside another officer, Tova Noel, responsible for conducting required 30-minute inmate checks and institutional counts in the SHU. Because Epstein’s cellmate had been moved and not replaced, Epstein was alone in his cell, making regular monitoring all the more crucial under bureau policy.Thomas became a focal figure in the official investigations into Epstein’s death because surveillance footage and institutional records showed that neither he nor Noel conducted the required rounds or counts through the night before Epstein was found unresponsive in his cell early on August 10. Prosecutors subsequently charged both officers with conspiracy and falsifying records for signing count slips that falsely indicated they had completed rounds they had not performed. Thomas and Noel later entered deferred prosecution agreements in which they admitted falsifying records and avoided prison time, instead receiving supervisory release and community service. Investigators concluded that chronic staffing shortages and procedural failures at the jail contributed to the circumstances that allowed Epstein to remain unmonitored for hours before his death, which was officially ruled a suicide by hanging.to contact me:[email protected]:EFTA00113577.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
