The Epstein Chronicles

Jeffrey Epstein was a multi millionaire who had political and business ties to some of the most rich and powerful people in the world. From businessmen to politicians at the highest levels, Epstein broke bread with them all.

Yet for years the Legacy media and the rest of high society looked the other way and ignored his behavior as multiple women came forward with allegations of abuse.

Even after he was convicted and subsequently received a sweetheart deal those same so called elites welcomed him back with open arms.

Now after his death and the arrest of Maxwell, the real story is starting to come together and the curtain has begun to be drawn back and what it has revealed is truly disturbing.

From Princes to Ex Presidents, the cast of scoundrels in this play spans continents and political affiliations leaving us with a transcontinental criminal conspiracy possibly unlike any we have ever seen before.

In this podcast we will explore all of the levels of Jeffrey Epstein and his criminal enterprise.

From his most trusted assistants to obscure associates, we will leave no stone unturned as we swim through the muck searching for clarity and answers to some of the most pressing questions of the case.

From interviews with people directly involved in the case to daily updates, the Epstein Chronicles will have it all.

Just like our other project, The Jeffrey Epstein Show, you can expect no punches pulled and consistent content. We have covered the Epstein case daily(everyday since October 1st 2019) and will continue to do so until there are convictions. With a library of well over 1k shows, you can expect a ton of content coming your way including on scene reporting from the Maxwell trial and from places like Zorro Ranch.

Thank you for tuning in and I look forward to having you all along for the ride.

Les Wexner And His Funding Of Jeffrey Epstein Oct 01, 2026

Show notes

Les Wexner played a central role in Jeffrey Epstein’s rise, giving him access, credibility and financial authority that few other relationships could have provided. Epstein became deeply involved in Wexner’s finances in the 1980s and eventually received sweeping power of attorney over his affairs, an extraordinary level of trust for someone whose own financial background remained opaque. Wexner also transferred the Manhattan townhouse at 9 East 71st Street to Epstein, and Epstein’s association with the billionaire retail magnate helped him move into elite business and social circles. Being known as Wexner’s money manager gave Epstein legitimacy and opened doors that might otherwise have remained closed.
That patronage became one of the most consequential relationships in Epstein’s life because it helped transform him from a relatively obscure financier into someone who could present himself as a trusted adviser to the ultra-wealthy. Wexner later said he severed ties with Epstein in 2007 and accused him of misappropriating tens of millions of dollars, while maintaining that he had no knowledge of Epstein’s sexual abuse. By then, however, the relationship had already given Epstein years of access to money, property, prestige and powerful contacts. Whatever Wexner knew or did not know about Epstein’s crimes, his patronage was instrumental in building the image, wealth and influence Epstein later used to expand his network.

Tyler Robinson Preliminary Hearing Transcripts (Day 2 Part 19) (9/30/26) Sep 30, 2026

Show notes

Day two of Tyler Robinson’s preliminary hearing focused heavily on prosecutors’ effort to connect Robinson to the Utah Valley University campus and to the physical evidence recovered after Charlie Kirk was shot. Investigators introduced additional surveillance footage they said showed Robinson moving around UVU before and after the shooting, while the State also turned to forensic evidence recovered along the alleged escape route. A screwdriver found on top of the Losee Center and a towel recovered from a wooded area near the rifle became major points of testimony. The State Bureau of Investigation introduced an FBI laboratory report concluding that DNA from both Robinson and his roommate, Lance Twiggs, was present on the screwdriver and towel, evidence prosecutors argued helped connect Robinson to the rooftop area and to the abandoned rifle. The hearing also featured argument over the State’s allegation that Kirk had been targeted because of his political and religious views, an issue relevant to the victim-targeting enhancement prosecutors had attached to several charges
The defense spent much of the day attacking how strongly the forensic evidence could actually be interpreted. FBI forensic examiner Amanda Bakker was questioned for roughly three hours as defense attorney Michael Burt dug into the technical details of the DNA testing, mixtures, statistical interpretation and the limitations of what the results could establish about when or how DNA was deposited on the objects. Robinson’s lawyers also pushed back against the State’s motive theory, challenging the attempt to characterize the killing as being driven by Kirk’s religious beliefs in addition to political disagreement. By the end of day two, prosecutors had added important physical evidence to the surveillance case presented on day one, but the defense had begun laying out the approach it would use throughout the hearing: concede that certain items contained Robinson-associated evidence while aggressively challenging what that evidence actually proved about possession, timing, motive and the circumstances of Kirk’s killing.

Judge Engelmayer Denies Ghislaine Maxwell's Attempt To Overturn Her Conviction (Part 10) (9/30/26) Sep 30, 2026

Show notes

Judge Paul Engelmayer rejected Ghislaine Maxwell’s attempt to overturn her conviction and 20-year prison sentence, dismantling the arguments she raised in a sprawling petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. Maxwell claimed that newly released Epstein-related records, alleged prosecutorial misconduct, false testimony and withheld evidence demonstrated that her trial had resulted in a miscarriage of justice. Engelmayer was unequivocal, finding that nearly all of her claims were either procedurally barred because they had already been raised or could have been raised on appeal, or were simply unsupported by the record. He described the evidence presented against Maxwell at trial as overwhelming and concluded that the purportedly new material she relied upon did not undermine the jury’s verdict.
Engelmayer also found that much of the material Maxwell portrayed as exculpatory was either irrelevant or actually reinforced the case against her. He rejected all 10 principal claims in her petition, denied her request for an evidentiary hearing and refused additional discovery, concluding that she had failed to show any constitutional violation warranting relief. The court also declined to issue a certificate of appealability and certified that an appeal would not be taken in good faith for purposes of proceeding without paying filing fees. The August 25, 2026 ruling therefore left Maxwell’s conviction and sentence fully intact while closing one of her remaining avenues for challenging the verdict in federal court.

University of Maine Strips George Mitchell’s Name Over Epstein Ties (9/30/26) Sep 30, 2026

Show notes

The University of Maine System voted to strip former U.S. Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell’s name from university programs and honors after renewed scrutiny of his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The Board of Trustees voted 9-5, with one abstention, to remove Mitchell’s name from the George J. Mitchell Center for Sustainability Solutions and the George J. Mitchell Peace Scholarship. The decision followed a university task force review prompted by newly released Epstein-related records, which showed Mitchell’s name appearing hundreds of times and documented continued contact with Epstein after Epstein’s 2008 conviction. The task force stressed that it was not making a finding that Mitchell had committed wrongdoing, but concluded that keeping his name attached to university institutions could damage public trust and the university’s reputation.
The controversy went beyond simple association. Virginia Giuffre had previously alleged that Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell trafficked her to Mitchell while she was underage, an allegation Mitchell repeatedly denied, saying he never met Giuffre and had no knowledge of Epstein’s criminal conduct. Additional records later revealed a 2003 birthday-book message attributed to Mitchell describing his friendship with Epstein as one of the “blessings” in his life. Nearly three-quarters of people who submitted comments during the university’s review supported removing Mitchell’s name, and the University of Maine ultimately joined other institutions that had already begun distancing themselves from him, including Queen’s University Belfast and institutions in Maine.

Norway’s Parliament Opens Hearings Into Jeffrey Epstein’s Political Connections (9/30/26) Sep 30, 2026

Show notes

Norway’s parliament has opened public hearings into Jeffrey Epstein’s connections with Norwegian politicians and diplomats after newly released U.S. records exposed a wider web of relationships between Epstein and members of the country’s political and diplomatic elite. The parliament’s scrutiny and constitutional affairs committee has summoned 11 current and former foreign and development ministers, including Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, who served as foreign minister from 2005 to 2012. Former foreign minister Børge Brende, who resigned as president and CEO of the World Economic Forum after revelations about his relationship with Epstein, is also expected to testify. Brende has said he did not know about Epstein’s criminal past when they first met in 2018 and has expressed regret that he did not investigate him more thoroughly.
The hearings are part of a much broader reckoning in Norway, where several other prominent figures with Epstein ties are under police investigation on corruption allegations, including former prime minister Thorbjørn Jagland, former minister Terje Rød-Larsen and former diplomat Mona Juul. All three have denied criminal wrongdoing. Crown Princess Mette-Marit has also apologized for her friendship with Epstein, though she is not part of the parliamentary hearing. At the same time, parliament has created an external commission of academics and legal experts to examine more than 30 years of Norwegian diplomatic history and determine how these relationships developed, with the stated goal of restoring integrity and transparency in government institutions. The commission is expected to report its findings in early 2028.

Federal Judge Allows Epstein Survivors’ Claims Against FirstBank to Proceed (9/30/26) Sep 30, 2026

Show notes

A federal judge in Manhattan ruled that FirstBank Puerto Rico and its parent company, First BanCorp, must face most of a lawsuit accusing the bank of helping sustain Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking operation for more than two decades. U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff rejected the bank’s effort to dismiss the central claim brought under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act, allowing survivor Julia Molchonova to continue arguing that FirstBank knowingly benefited from participating in Epstein’s trafficking venture. The lawsuit alleges that FirstBank maintained more than 30 accounts tied to Epstein, his companies and associates from at least 1998 through 2020, including a primary Epstein account that remained open until October 2019. It also claims the bank processed at least $21 million in wire transfers involving Epstein accounts between 2013 and his death in 2019, while continuing to provide services even after his 2008 conviction.
Rakoff also allowed a claim under New York City’s Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act to move forward, although he dismissed a separate claim accusing FirstBank of obstructing enforcement of the federal trafficking law. FirstBank has denied the allegations and says it merely provided routine banking services without knowledge of Epstein’s trafficking operation. Molchonova is seeking to turn the case into a class action on behalf of women who say they were sexually abused or trafficked by Epstein or his associates, with a class-certification hearing scheduled for October 15. The ruling puts FirstBank alongside JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank and Bank of America as another major financial institution forced to defend its relationship with Epstein and explain why it continued doing business with him despite his criminal history and the warning signs surrounding his accounts.

Mega Edition: Ghislaine Maxwell And The Autobiography That Never Materialized (9/30/26) Sep 30, 2026

Show notes

There was repeated speculation that Ghislaine Maxwell might eventually write a memoir or autobiography giving her version of her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, the criminal case against her and the years she spent moving through elite social circles. Reports suggested that Maxwell had considered telling her story from prison, potentially addressing Epstein, Prince Andrew, her prosecution and the people who surrounded them. The possibility attracted attention because Maxwell has continued to dispute aspects of the case against her and has portrayed herself as unfairly blamed for Epstein’s crimes, making a memoir an obvious vehicle for her to try to reshape the public record.
But despite the recurring talk, no Maxwell autobiography or memoir has been published to date. There has been no confirmed release, no completed book made public and no definitive publishing announcement that resulted in an actual memoir reaching readers. The idea has surfaced periodically in media reports and speculation, but it has remained just that: a potential project rather than a finished work. As of now, Maxwell has given interviews and made statements through legal filings and other channels, but the long-discussed memoir that might offer her full account of the Epstein saga has never come to fruition.

Mega Edition: The American Public Has Had Enough Of The Congressional Epstein Games (9/30/26) Sep 30, 2026

Show notes

For many Americans, Congress’s performance on Jeffrey Epstein transparency and accountability has been deeply unsatisfying. Lawmakers have held hearings, issued subpoenas, demanded records and publicly promised greater disclosure, but the broader public remains highly skeptical that the government has fully come clean. A Reuters/Ipsos poll published in February 2026 found that 75 percent of Americans believed the federal government was probably or definitely hiding information about Epstein’s alleged clients, while 69 percent said the Epstein files reinforced the belief that powerful people in the United States are rarely held accountable. That distrust cuts across party lines, suggesting that the frustration surrounding Epstein is not confined to one political faction.
Congress has also been operating against a backdrop of historically low public confidence. A July 2026 Pew survey found that only 25 percent of Americans viewed Congress favorably, while 72 percent viewed it unfavorably. In the Epstein context, that broader distrust has been compounded by years of delayed disclosures, heavily redacted records, incomplete document releases and repeated fights over what the public is entitled to see. The result is a widespread perception that congressional action has produced far more hearings, letters and promises than actual resolution, while the central questions about Epstein’s network, institutional enablers and the full scope of government knowledge remain unresolved.
