If you enjoy journalism that drifts into my old panic wild overthinking and a guaranteed nervous breakdown, Lunatic in the newsroom is for you. It's news like you've never heard before. The only newsroom with a panic button. You'll laugh, you'll cry and gasp and horror as the show spirals completely out of control. It's not just news, it's emotionally unstable. Lunatic in the newsroom, listen today.

1:00Welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. As you're all aware, we are at the Christmas break for the trial. So obviously there's nothing groundbreaking happening in the mornings or even in the evenings at this point. But that's okay, because we're still going to be here adding some context. And we're going to do that today by talking about the grand jury transcripts from Palm Beach. Now, there was a lot of talk a few weeks ago that this judge was going to release these grand jury transcripts. And that would have been a huge boost in the arm for transparency. We all know that whatever went on in that grand jury room in 2006, it was not good, all right? Whatever was going on in that grand jury room, based on that arrest, was not up to par. And the fact that only one of those girls

2:01was able to give their story in front of the grand jury tells you everything you need to know about the prosecutors and about the whole entire scenario that unfolded. This prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein, the original prosecution, was legitimately one of the biggest travesties of justice, perhaps ever. When you look at the grand scope of it all and you look at the disgusting nature of his crimes and the wake of misery he left, I mean, it's hard not to look at it like that. And the fact that Barry Cresher and the state prosecutor's office in Florida worked hand in hand with Dershowitz and Lefkowitz and the rest of Jeffrey Epstein's legal team to not only get him off, but to destroy his own witnesses,

3:03Barry Cresher's own witnesses, meaning these girls, is just unbelievable to me. And you have this judge down there in Palm Beach. You know, one of the good ol' boys, one of the been around forever's, still mucking things up, still not interested in transparency. You would think after all these years and all of the scrutiny over the Jeffrey Epstein case that some of these judges would wise up by now. But like I always say, they think they're feudal lords and these courtrooms are their fiefdoms and they can do whatever they want. And these lifetime-elected, lifetime-appointed judges, bad news, folks, talk about people who are power-hungry. Every now and then, you'll run across one of these judges like this guy and you just shake your head. But there's been a lot of them when it comes to the Jeffrey Epstein case. A lot of these judges, a lot of these people

4:06in positions of power have failed these girls time and time again. And with this latest blow, this judge not going to release these transcripts, it's just another victory for the scumbags and just another hurdle in the way of those who are trying to bring those scumbags to justice. This morning, we have an article from the Palm Beach Post and the author is Jane Musgrave. Was the Jeffrey Epstein case intentionally sunk? Judge won't, excuse me, Judge won't release secret grand jury papers. And again, it just, it's another blow to transparency. It's another blow to those of us who want the truth and it just, again, throws up another curtain over what everybody perceives at this point is government malfeasance.

5:07You would think that they'd want to expose that, right? You would think that they'd want to put that on blast, but that's not how it works. They go on to cover your ass mode and they got to protect the other scumbags that they work with. And it's just such a dog and pony show at this point. And the illusion that there's a fair justice system, the illusion that there isn't a two-tier justice system is being shattered on a regular basis at this point. A Palm Beach County Circuit judge on Monday refused to release secret documents that could explain why a 2006 grand jury indicted serial child molester, Jeffrey Epstein, on a single charge of prostitution. Despite evidence that showed he abused more than a dozen girls at his Palm Beach mansion. Now let that sink in. For those of you who aren't really completely up to date on the case, those of you who have had a life for the last three years, this might seem like

6:10what the hell are you talking about here? How is that even possible? But this is what they've been dealing with, meaning the survivors from the beginning. Law enforcement has not been on their side. Law enforcement, in fact, a lot of the time has worked against them. And you see it here again, when you have this judge who makes the decision that these grand jury documents will not see the light of day, as if it's some sort of national security issue where nobody should ever see those grand jury documents. Now I understand if there was a legitimate reason, a legitimate issue keeping those documents from the public. But there's no legitimate reason, unless of course you're trying to cover for somebody, unless of course you're trying to protect your friends. In a 10 page order, Circuit Judge Donald Huffle rejected arguments by attorneys for the Palm Beach Post

7:11who pushed him to release the records, citing a rarely used state law that allows the secrecy of the grand jury to be pierced to further the interests of justice. And if this is in a case where that hits home, I don't know what is. These grand jury testimony should be only released. They shouldn't be hidden from the public for all of these years, especially if it moves the interests of justice. And it certainly would, considering the non-prossecution agreement is based on all of this. So to get rid of that non-prossecution agreement, wouldn't it stand her reason that having these grand jury documents released would go a long way to making that occur? While Huffle noted the newspaper offered strong arguments, he said he was bound by the state's law.

8:13The court rules against the newspaper because the established and binding maxims of Florida law can strain it to do so, halfly wrote, halfly wrote. And again, we know that that's not 100% the case. If it promotes the interest of justice as according to the state law in Florida, then the documents can be released. The transcripts can be released. But they don't have any interest in doing that. Him, the other judge that's involved in this, Crystal Marx, all of them had ties to Barry Krischer or other people involved in the case. That's how these things work with these bureaucrats. They're all friends, they're all going to the same company functions. And on and on and on it goes. We've discussed it a lot here on this podcast. You're not buying the lawyer for what they're going to do in the courtroom for the most part. You're paying for a lawyer for the connections they have outside of the courtroom, for the access they can get you to the prosecutor's office.

9:15Why do you think in a situation like Maxwell's, she hires somebody like Christian Everdo. X prosecutor has a lock with the SDNY, knows all of the prosecutors. They're all probably chummy. They probably go to barbecues together. You know what I'm talking about. Drew McIntyre here from WWE. Wheeled in the Claymore can be a life of chaos. But I'm not dominating in the ring. Chumba Casino is how this warrior takes a rebrate with hundreds of online social games and new weekly releases. There's always something fresh to try. And those daily busts, next level, even my free time feels like foul Holland. So when life feels like a battle, kick up your feet, have some fun. And let's chumba. No purchase necessary.

I'm the host of Big Technology podcast, a longtime reporter and an on-air contributor to CMBC. And if you're like me, you're trying to figure out how artificial intelligence is changing the business world and our lives. So each week on Big Technology,

10:16I bring on key actors from companies building AI tech and outsiders trying to influence it. Asking where this is all going, they come from places like Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon, and plenty more. So if you want to be smart with your wallet, your career choices, and meetings with your colleagues and at dinner parties, listen to Big Technology podcast or ever you get your podcasts. Hey, I'm Josh Speagle, host of the podcast, Lunatic in the newsroom. If you enjoy journalism that drifts into my old panic, wild overthinking and a guaranteed nervous breakdown, Lunatic in the newsroom is for you. It's news like you've never heard before. The only newsroom with a panic button, you'll laugh, you'll cry and gasp and horror as the show spirals completely out of control. It's not just news, it's emotionally unstable. Lunatic in the newsroom, listen today. While state law allows the release of grand jury records to further the interest of justice, he said it is clear the legislature intended that exception

11:18to be used only in pending criminal or civil cases. So just because this happened a while back and now Epstein's dead, let's just forget it ever happened. We'll just move on and you know what? It is what it is, sorry. The girls who are victimized, no justice for them. It's basically what this judge is saying. And I mean, it shouldn't shock anybody considering, you know, what we see these judges do on a regular basis from the bench here in America. But you would think that something like this with all of the interests surrounding it, all of the questions that still need to be answered, that if you were a judge, you'd say to yourself, you know what, in the interests of justice, in the interests of moving the truth forward, I'm gonna release these transcripts. And that's what the law is put on the books for, but unfortunately this judge didn't wanna interpret that interpret it that way. Instead, the newspaper advocates a more expensive interpretation of the term.

12:19He wrote, the newspaper wants the ability to publish the materials and reference them in its reporting and also to make the materials available to the public. Yeah, that's how this works, judge, okay? The public is interested in a case that's probably one of the most corrupt of all time. So yeah, there is going to be a bit of hesitancy to trust you. There is going to be a bit of cynicism when it comes to court rulings. And the fact that you wanna keep this stuff away from the public is just going to feed into conspiracy theories and outlandish thoughts. The government plays a huge part in all of that. They could stem and stop a whole bunch of the conspiracy stuff with a whole lot of different topics if they just stop their bullshit. But they don't wanna ever be transparent. They wanna keep everything private, everything's a national security issue, isn't it? And that's what they'll say. Or if you're looking to get information about something

13:21say like Jeffrey Epstein's first alleged suicide attempt, what they'll say is the information is unavailable because it's still part of an ongoing investigation and that ongoing investigation has to do with Tartaglioni. So they'll just run you in circles for as long as possible. And if somehow you do get some freedom of information, act information from them, it'll be heavily redacted or partial. You'll never get the full story. Like the newspaper's attorneys, Halfill said the transcripts could help answer trouble some questions about why the politically connected multi-millionaire, pedophile, escaped serious punishment. Some claim that then-state attorney, Barry Krischer, was improperly influenced by Epstein's high octane defense team. I agree with that. I definitely think he was. When you go back and you look at all of the documentation and you look at the reporting and you look at how things broke,

14:21it's very obvious that he wasn't working as an advocate for these survivors and neither was the prosecutor's office of Florida or a hell, the federal prosecutor's office either. Because remember, while Acosta was the one who was the direction man, right? The guy who was considered the quote unquote boss on the ground, he had people to answer to as well. He's just a mid-level bureaucrat. He don't make decisions like this. He had to kick that up the chain to Mucasey and the rest of them. So they all failed from the top down from the federal government all the way down to the state and now all the way back to this judge, absolute failures, a top of absolute failures. It may very well be that the disclosure of Jeffrey Epstein's grand jury records could reveal the fair treatment did not occur and that Mr. Epstein might have escaped appropriate punishment through some failing of our justice system.

15:23Halfill said, yeah, well how about releasing the documents then? Instead, you'll just sit on them, right? Like a dragon hoarding its gold. Post hasn't decided whether to appeal, but he said state law can't be ignored on a whim or to satisfy the public's curiosity. The court's interpretation of the scope of the state law end of the phrase further injustice is governed and constrained by the established rules of statutory construction, half, halfly wrote. Attorneys for the post said they were reviewing the order and had not yet decided whether to appeal. I really hope they do. I mean, I know it's an extra cost on them to appeal stuff like this and the attorney fees get to be a bit excessive, but you would think that in the interest of justice, in the interest of transparency, that they would release this documentation. And really what it comes down to

16:24is this judge's interpretation of the law. That's all it is. But he said state law can't be ignored on a whim or to satisfy the public's curiosity. In a statement, a comptroller and clerk of the court's Joe Abruzzo said that while he, while he hired a top media lawyer to represent his office in the lawsuit, he wasn't against the newspaper's request. While Florida statute is clear on its prohibition of releasing information from grand jury cases, I want to be clear that I have absolutely no objection to releasing grand jury information in the Epstein case if directed by the court, Abruzzo said. So the comptroller saying, look, I'll release this information, but I have to be directed to do so by the court. That's the only way that I can release this. And once again, it goes back to the judges. These guys running around like their Taiwan Lannister in the courtroom.

17:24He hired Shane Voight, a Tampa attorney who won a $140 million verdict against Gauker on behalf of retired professional wrestler, Hulk Hogan, and has represented others in fights against news outlets to represent the office. During a hearing on October 22nd, Voight argued that if half-full approved the newspaper's request, it would open the floodgates for others to do the same. Well, so what? Open the floodgates. And then on a case-by-case basis, decide what should or what shouldn't be released. Why is that so difficult? Oh, is it gonna cause extra work for the clerks? God forbid. I mean, are we supposed to just slow everything down and, you know, ah, well, let's wait on things here because, you know, we don't have enough time or enough people. I don't even understand what any of it means. The floodgates will open?

18:24Well, if they're legitimate requests, then, maybe the floodgates need to be opened. Half-full said he could craft the narrow order that would assure the clerk wouldn't be inundated with demands for grand jury records. Still, he said after reviewing the law, he determined the documents must remain secret. State attorney Dave Aaron Berg declined to comment on half-full's decision. While the paper initially named him in the lawsuit, he was dropped after he claimed he didn't have the records. Executives of the newspaper, which is owned by Gannett Company, said they were disappointed by half-full's decision. Yeah, you would think so, right? As a newspaper organization, the idea is to get as much information to the public as possible. Let the public decide. And what a better way to do that than to provide raw data such as transcripts. I don't need the middleman, right? Provide us with the transcripts. Provide us with the information that we need and let us decide what's going on here as the public.

19:29But no, they'll keep everything hidden. And then what he'll do is he'll cite some obscure law here. Oh, well, it'll cause a flood of other requests and all of it is nonsense. Whenever I hear any of this stuff, all I hear is no, we don't want to be transparent. No, you can't know the truth. That's basically what I hear every time they start in on the nonsense. While the post appreciates the court's consideration of the issues, we respectfully disagree with the legal conclusion that public access to the Epstein Grand Jury Materials is not warranted under the circumstances. Said Marable Perez-Wadsworth, president of Gnett News, USA Today Network, and publisher of USA Today. It is our right and responsibility to report all aspects of this case. And we will continue to diligently seek the facts in our pursuit of transparency. Can't argue with that and props to them for doing it. I mean, is it too much to ask to have some transparency

20:31or as the public to have the proper information in a case that is so important? Tyler Reddick here from 2311 Racing. Victory Lane? Yeah, it's even better with Chumba by my side.

I'm the host of Big Technology podcast, a longtime reporter and an on-air contributor to CMBC. And if you're like me, you're trying to figure out how artificial intelligence is changing the business world and our lives. So each week on Big Technology, I bring on key actors from companies building AI tech and outsiders trying to influence it.

So if you want to be smart with your wallet, your career choices, and meetings with your colleagues and at dinner parties, listen to Big Technology podcast wherever you get your podcasts. Post-executive editor Rich Christie echoed those sentiments.

21:34For 16 years, the post has been driven to report on the heinous acts of Jeffrey Epstein for two reasons. Justice for the victimized girls and accountability for our readers, he said. Today's ruling by circuit judge Huffle, while disappointing, does not deter us from our mission of furthering justice for Epstein's young victims. The post will always fight to shine a spotlight wherever it is needed to expose the actions or inactions of those charged with serving and protecting the public, period, he concluded. Hey, I'll tell you what, I'm all for that. And I'll be right here with you right in shotgun as far as trying to get these transcripts because it's a big deal. It's a huge deal. And I can't express enough how important that non-prosecution agreement is in protecting these people still. And all of this plays such a huge part in that. The ruling was a blow to efforts to unravel the sorted case that grabbed international attention.

22:38It also came on a day that a federal jury in New York began deliberating whether Epstein's longtime girlfriend, co-conspirator, Galaine Maxwell, recruited and groomed teens for his pleasure. The 59-year-old British socialite, co-conspirator general all around Scuzzbad by Petal Serpent, faces a lengthy prison term if convicted of multiple charges in connection with the sex trafficking scheme. During the October hearing, the newspaper's attorneys argued that the case was unique. More than 15 years has passed. Epstein is dead so none of the information can be used against him. The 66-year-old financier, pedophile, who counted former president Bill Clinton and Britain's Prince Andrew as friends hung himself, allegedly, in a Manhattan jail cell in August 2019 while a waiting trial on dozens of sex trafficking charges in New York. Again, he's dead. None of this information can be used against him or anything like that. So I don't understand how it won't be released.

23:40Now look, if he was still alive and there was a chance that this information could be used or all right, I get it. I might not agree with it, but I get it. I don't agree with it and I don't get it in this instance. The guy's dead, he's rotting. It's time for transparency. A dozen girls said they were sexually abused, only one testified. As part of a 2019 investigation, titled The First Failure, sources familiar with the grand jury proceedings told the post that while more than a dozen teens told Palm Beach police that Epstein molested them, only one, a 14-year-old girl was called to testify. And this is what I talk about a lot in reference how only one girl was called to give testimony and how it flashes shades to what we saw here in the Maxwell trial with only four girls being called. While I understand the scopes a little bit different, it's just for those of us who have been through this already,

24:41it's concerning to see. The sources said, Christians, top lieutenants, vilified the teen. Instead of focusing on the abuse she suffered at the hands of the wealthy pedophile, they quizzed her about her social media activity, which included references to boys and drinking. Her posts on our MySpace page were given a cursor by Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz, one of Epstein's top flight attorneys. And that was the strategy then, it's the strategy now, and it'll continue to be the strategy until these juries wake up and start convicting these people. We all know that the girls were absolutely destroyed by not only the authorities, but by Epstein's attorneys. Oh, they were talking to boys, they were smoking weed, they drank on their MySpace page, really? Let me ask you, how many of you out there as young teenagers didn't do any of those things? I know we all did, I know I did.

25:42If you're gonna base my life on what I did as a young man, then boy, I'll tell you, I'd be in big trouble. Her alleged treatment by state prosecutors could explain why grand jurors indicted Epstein on the lone prostitution charge, instead of multiple counts of child molestation that were sought by the police. The prostitution charge ignored the tender age of Epstein's accusers, and the fact that teens under the age of 18 couldn't legally consent to sex. We've talked about that from the jump, too. How can you even call a girl under 18 a prostitute when they can't even consent to sex? How is that even logical? Legal experts say prosecutors will tremendous influence over grand jurors who aren't skilled in the law. Sidentically, some embrace a time honored maxim that a prosecutor, if he desired, could indict a ham sandwich. And this is a fact as well.

26:44You know, the grand jury rooms are places where indictments definitely come down at a huge swell. The statement, you get a ham sandwich indicted at a grand jury, certainly rings true because it's something that a lot of people talk about who are in the know. After his death, scores of young women came forward publicly describing how Epstein sexually assaulted them. At his home in Palm Beach, his penthouse apartment in Manhattan, his ranch in New Mexico, and his private island in the Virgin Islands. Some said he forced them to have sex with his celebrity friends while aboard his private jet, the Lolita Express. Many teen victims were from Palm Beach County. Like teens from Royal Palm Beach and John I Leonard High Schools, many were alert to Epstein's homes with the promise of being paid $200 to give him a massage. He greeted them wearing little more than a towel. He offered to pay them, more to disrobe,

27:45let them fondle them, and to have sex. Boy, what does that all sound like? Sounds like a bunch of testimony we just heard, doesn't it? Imagine this testimony mirrors that testimony, and if they would have actually done their job during this first arrest and had more than one of the victims give their testimony to the grand jury, a lot of this could have been stopped perhaps. The girls, some from hard-scrabble backgrounds, were promised careers in high fashion, college educations, or other perks that were beyond their reach. The grand jury marked the beginning of when the case spun out of control. Angry at Chrisher's handling at his agency, angry at Chrisher's handling of his agency's investigation, Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Ryder went to the FBI. Ultimately in a secret deal, South Florida attorney, Alex Acosta agreed to shell the 53-page federal indictment against Epstein

28:45if he would plead guilty to state prostitution charges. And now remember, it's not just Acosta here. He's the scumbag with no spine, no doubt about it, and he deserves his infamy for his role. But he wasn't the one who made the decision. He might have been the one who filed it up the chain of command, but he didn't okay it, that's for sure. As part of the so-called non-prosecution agreement, Chrisher added a charge of solicitation of a minor for prostitution. Federal prosecutors insisted on the second charge because it would force Epstein to register as a sex offender, how that worked out new Mexico. Oh, that's right, he didn't have to register there. Because he knew he planned all of this, he took precautions. On June 30th, 2008, Epstein pleaded guilty in Palm Beach County Circuit Court to both prostitution charges. He served 13 months of an 18-month sentence

29:47in a largely vacant wing of the County Stockade. He was given liberal work release privileges. He was allowed to spend up to 12 hours a day, six days a week, working at a private foundation he created months earlier. The fallout from what one state prosecutor described as the deal of the century was far reaching, if delayed, and not only was Epstein out, according to some of these other accusers, he was abusing them while he was out on this work release program. Fantastic job done by the federal government, huh? Fantastic job done by the Florida State authorities. After Epstein was charged in New York, a cost to resigned as former president Donald Trump's Labor Secretary when questions were raised about his involvement in crafting the non-prosecution agreement. Before his resignation, a cost to sought to blame Chrisher. He claimed he was forced to clean up a mess Chrisher created when the state prosecutor refused to file serious charges against Epstein.

30:47A cost to point it out that Chrisher originally offered to allow Epstein to plead guilty to aggravate a assault. Serve no jail time and have the felony record erased if he complied with the terms of his probation. That was unacceptable, a cost to said, during a nationally televised news conference. So basically, it's a a poignant game, right? You did it, I did it, he did it, she did it. And in reality, what they do is they cause enough confusion and then that nobody's held responsible. Chrisher responded that a cost was attempting to rewrite history in a prepared statement, he said, I can emphatically state that Mr. Acosta's recollection of this matter is completely wrong. A federal investigation in 2020 found that Acosta placed too much trust in Chrisher. A two-year state investigation completed last year concluded that Chrisher had little input into the non-prosecution agreement and found no wrongdoing. State investigators were denied access

31:49to the grand jury proceedings. So not only has the public locked out, they locked out the state investigators who were investigating wrongdoing here in the FDLE report. Yeah, nothing, nothing to see here folks, keep on moving. Everything is just fine, we're all fine. After Epstein died, authorities in the U.S. Virgin Islands worked with those who were administering his estate to set up a fund to compensate his victims. They wrapped up their work in August after paying slightly more than $121 million to more than 135 people according to the New York Times. Look, this is a situation that, obviously, as you can tell here, has been going on for quite some time. And there was hope that this judge was going to be and there was hope that this judge was going to release these grand jury documents. Well, that's not going to occur. So the battle continues for transparency folks and we'll continue to report on it and we'll continue to talk about it

32:50until there's some movement and we finally get a glimpse behind the curtain. All right folks, that's gonna do it for me today and I'll be back later on, obviously, with a evening update and expect some more context episodes as well. If you'd like to contact me, you can do that at bobbykapuchiatprotonmail.com. That's bobbcapucciatprotonmail.com. You can also find me on Twitter at bobbyyunderscorecapucci. The link that we discussed can be found in the description box. What's up everyone and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. One of the biggest forces in the history of forces is the fact that Jeffrey Epstein received that sweetheart deal that he received. That should have never happened, it should have never went down and everybody involved in that sweetheart deal

33:52should lose their pensions, should not have a job working for the federal government and should be looked at for perhaps even losing their law license. And I truly mean that when I say it. That's how big of a travesty this was to think that any prosecutor anywhere in the country would give this guy this kind of deal is just beyond me. And then for the court system, the government to say that there is no legal basis to invalidate the sweetheart deal is even more absurd. So what you're telling me is there are no levers to pull on if something goes wrong in the legal system, we just have to deal with it. Huh, seems like every time something goes south in the legal system, it always ends up going in the favor of the federal government. Never in the favor of the people. And once again, we're seeing that here. So what you're telling me is your rich buddies like Jeffrey Epstein, who get these stupid ass non-prosecution deals handed to them by their friends and government are just allowed to have them

34:54and there's no recourse. There's no way to go back and look at one of these deals and say it was done in bad faith and get rid of it. Just another loophole in technicality for the so-called elite, huh? Today we have another article from Law and Crime. Author of this article, Jerry Lamb, headline. Federal prosecutors say there's no legal basis to invalidate Jeffrey Epstein sweetheart deal. Well, I say that needs to be looked at. Then maybe they need to come up with a new solution here where in the future, if a deal like this is given, a panel can be put together and the panel can look at it and say, you know what, this is not a deal that we're comfortable with because this is unacceptable and it can never happen again. The Department of Justice on Monday rejected efforts by the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein to get a sweetheart non-prosecution deal thrown out so that Epstein can be prosecuted for alleged abuse

35:54of dozens of underage girls. Now, imagine being the judge who denies this. In a 35-page motion, first reported by the Miami Herald, federal prosecutors claim that Jeffrey Epstein survivors have no legal basis to invalidate the non-prosecution agreement. The same agreement, the judge in the case, previously said, broke the law. So you see what's going on here? You have judges saying that this agreement broke the law. Then you have a court saying, oh, well, no, there's no recourse here for this because there's nothing that was invalid. So they can't even figure it out. As far as the legal system itself, what's right or wrong here? And then they expect us just to stomach it and suck it down and be okay with it? No way. There is no chance that this legal agreement should have stood. There is no chance that it should stand at all. And in fact, it's ridiculous that anyone would refer to this and try and use it as a defense

36:55as we found out in the previous article. It holds no water unless you're down in Florida. Many of Epstein survivors were middle school and high school girls between the ages of 13 and 16 who were recruited from the local South Florida area. According to prosecutors, despite a judge's earlier ruling that the plea deal violated the Crime Victims Rights Act, Epstein survivors cannot demand that the government take any additional action because the CVRA did not enumerate any mandatory criminal penalties at the time of its passing. So basically what they're doing is using legal ease loopholes and technicalities in the law itself that the Congress passed, that Congress wrote to get their buddies off once again. And this is how they do it, right? They put these loopholes and these technicalities in these laws that you or I would never be able to exploit because we don't have the money. We don't have the legal power and the backing

37:56to really go toe to toe with the federal government. But somebody like Jeffrey Epstein or Golan Max, well, they certainly do. And when you have those resources, well, the world is your oyster. In Monday's DOJ filing by attorney, Young Pack, who was appointed by President Donald Trump, the government admits that the survivors were treated unfairly but says that prosecutors were within their rights to do so. Real nice by Young Pack, huh? Hell of a guy. Hell of a attorney here. I mean, this guy's defending. Just think about this for a minute, okay folks. This man is defending this prosecution agreement. All because he doesn't want the government to have some dirt on their face. Instead of just admitting that this deal was bad, it was garbage and the government shit the bed, they'll fight it to the very end. Well, at the same time telling you, oh, we're looking for justice for these survivors. Yeah, right. Tyler Reddick here from 2311 Racing.

38:56Another checkered flag for the books. Time to celebrate with Chamba. Jump in at chambacasino.com. Let's Chamba. No purchase necessary, VTW Group. Boy, we're prohibited by law. CCNC, 21 plus sponsored by Chamba Casino. In the filing, federal prosecutors did concede that the U.S. Attorney's Office in South Florida failed to treat Epstein survivors, most of whom, were 13 to 16 years old when they were abused fairly. But they said the law gives prosecutors discretion in deciding how to dispose of a case. Survivors have a right to confer with prosecutors, but no rights beyond that. So basically, let's just revictimize these people. And let's make it so nobody wants to come forward ever again because there's no justice. Oh, so I come forward and then what happens? These people are protected by their non-prosecution agreement. Then they can hire their private investigators to come bother me again, like they did to all of the people involved. Let me be very clear with you.

39:56If I walk out of my home and anyone's rummaging through my trash, we're gonna have a big problem. If I'm sitting in the street and somebody's following me around and you don't have a badge once again, we're gonna have a big problem. These people have gotten way too comfortable thinking that they can bully people. They have gotten way too comfortable. Thinking that when they walk in the room, they're the only ones with big dick energy. But the reality is people have had enough. And just normal average everyday folks like you are the backbone of that. And if they think that we're gonna stop demanding justice here or for other victims of violent crimes, they are sorely mistaken. Pack also warn the judge overseeing the case, Kenneth Mara, against taking action to overrule a cost as original decision, not to prosecute Epstein. So who is this young pot guy? And why is he out here trying to defend Jeffrey Epstein?

40:59Pretty interesting, right? Wasn't that one of Bill Barr's guys? Oh, it was, wasn't it? Good old Darth Barr, one of the most unreliable, untrustworthy people to ever plant their lazy, do nothing asses in Washington, DC. Courts are not to interfere with the free exercise of the discretionary powers of the United States attorneys in their control over criminal prosecutions, Poxet. The decision whether to prosecute Epstein lies solely within the executive branch and any order today by this court as to what the government must do in the future would be wholly inappropriate. So that just gives you a little bit of an idea of how the Justice Department has felt about Epstein and these survivors throughout time. And it doesn't matter who the president is. Every single one of these attorney generals has been an impediment for justice going all the way back to Clinton. We're talking since Clinton, that's how many presidents, Jeffrey Epstein has been active under

41:59and how many attorney generals stepped up and did something about it. So I don't wanna hear anything about how, you know, Bill Barr was appointed by Donald Trump to get rid of human trafficking. That's a bunch of bullshit. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss, over and over again, on repeat. The Herald didn't know, however, that Poxet, Epstein survivors would be given the chance to meet with prosecutors in private and if they desired to be heard out of public hearing. He also said he would agree to give federal prosecutors additional training on dealing with survivors of crimes of this nature, basically just, you know, shoving it under the rug. And this is why I've been so critical of the Department of Justice, of the FBI and their handling of the Jeffrey Epstein criminal enterprise. And for all the people out there that wanna continuously play politics about this, folks, I hate to tell you, how much more evidence do you need to see that it's both sides of the aisle here that have, you know, chips in the game? They don't want this to be out there.

43:02They don't want the whole entire scope of what Epstein was up to to be released to the public because it's gonna be damning for all of these people. As previously reported by Law and Crime, the controversy surrounding Epstein's plea deal dates back to 2007 when federal prosecutors in Florida under the leadership of current US Secretary of Labor, Alexandra Acosta, who was then the US Attorney for the Southern District of Florida. Acosta's prosecutors quietly entered to a secretive non-prosecution agreement with the billionaire, pedophile, which ensured that Epstein and his go-conspirators would not be prosecuted federally in exchange for Epstein's guilty plea to much less serious state prostitution charges. Epstein served only 13 months in a county jail and the prostitution charges were made up. You see, folks, you can't have a prostitute who's under age, right? So how do you have prostitution charges?

44:04At all. It was child molestation, child grooming, and child trafficking point blank period. Additionally, Acosta's deal is insured that Epstein's go-conspirators were all shielded from prosecution under what is now viewed as an extraordinarily unprecedented agreement and was followed by the FBI's ongoing probe being shut down. So the probe was shut down too, by the way. Imagine you're one of these FBI agents who's working on this and some jerk off suit, bureaucrat walks in and says, well, that's a rat, boys, shut it all down. And again, that's why my criticism is mainly directed at the bureaucrats of the FBI folks. Please don't get that confused. The rank and file agents that are out there doing their job, I don't have any beef with them. People are out there doing their job, I get it. My problem is with the bureaucrats out here playing games. They'll act like they don't give a damn about what's going on here, but God forbid you get on the wrong side of them politically and they're gonna come after you full bore.

45:09Jack Scarola, a former prosecutor representing one of Epstein's survivors told the Harold that a prosecutor's discretion in granting plea deals while broad is far from unlimited. He specifically noted that a defendant's victims have the right to appeal a plea deal at sentencing. This was not the case here as Epstein and Acosta's office reached their plea deal without conferring with any of Epstein's survivors. And then you wonder why people again are saying this deal was corrupt. The whole thing is garbage, it's all gross. Well, this is why. And that's why we're going back and going over some of these articles and laying the groundwork again. You know, that stupid ass article from NPR talking about conspiracy theories when they should be digging into what went on here, really launched me into orbit and sent your boy on basically a crusade where we're going to go back and cover all of this again for all of the new listeners, all of the people who might not have heard it the first time around and with a fresh eye. Because if there's anything that's absurd here, if there's anything that's disgusting,

46:11it's a sweetheart deal. Courts reject plea deals when they find them to be unjustifiable and unreasonable, especially if they are not told the full scope of the agreement, Scarola said. He also said separately that Congress did not contemplate the extraordinary circumstances of this conspiracy between the government and a serial child molester. I disagree with that, I'm sure they did, and they don't care. Point blank, how many times has the government hopped into bed with some disgusting animal? Scarola previously predicted the Epstein deal would be revoked. Pock who took over Epstein's case in March was joined in submitting Monday's brief by US Attorney Jill E. Steinberg and Nathan P. Kitchens. Once again, folks, you see what's going on here? You see that this is absurd and you see why people are fired up about it. Yet we have no answers, we don't have any allies in Congress.

47:11Do we have any allies in Congress or the Senate that want justice here? We sure do not. Nobody calling for hearings, nobody calling for subpoenas, nobody getting their phone record seized, not a damn thing. And the ban just plays on, so it's left to us to continue to demand justice. And the best way to do that, the best way to get people to act when they're being inactive is to embarrass them. So that's what we'll continue to do. We'll shine a spotlight on the piss-poor job done by the Department of Justice until they get off, they're doing nothing asses, and get some justice.
