File 82 - How Epstein Bought the Virgin Islands Government

This episode examines how Epstein exploited the U.S. Virgin Islands' political and economic system to build a virtually untouchable base of operations.

It investigates the web of political donations, government contracts, and personal relationships that gave Epstein extraordinary influence in the territory and allowed him to operate with near-impunity for decades. The thesis is that Epstein deliberately chose the USVI as a jurisdiction he could effectively capture through wealth and influence, exploiting the vulnerability of a small territory's political system to create a safe harbor for his criminal operations.
