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 welcome ...

Several of these works have not been translated before, while others have not received such careful editing and translation until now, when the editors and translators are consulting original manuscripts.

Jeffrey Epstein’s early financial career is cloaked in mystery, with only fragments of fact piercing through layers of rumor and myth. After leaving Bear Stearns in 1981, he founded Intercontinental Assets Group Inc., a consulting firm where he claimed to “recover stolen money for wealthy clients.” What exactly that meant was never made clear, but …

Prosecutors alleged that in late 2018, just after renewed public scrutiny from media reporting on earlier investigations, Epstein wired $100,000 to one person and $250,000 to another — both described as possible co-conspirators or potential witnesses in his trafficking case. The timing and amounts suggested to prosecutors that Epstein was using his…

After Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted on multiple federal counts related to sex trafficking and conspiracy, the court faced several paths forward regarding her legal fate. The most immediate option was formal sentencing, where Maxwell faced the possibility of decades in federal prison — effectively a life sentence given her age. The court also need…

Ghislaine Maxwell’s defense strategy tried to lean heavily on wealth and influence to cast doubt on the prosecution’s case. Her lawyers attempted to present her as a scapegoat — someone prosecutors went after only because Jeffrey Epstein was dead and couldn’t stand trial. With substantial financial resources behind her, the defense worked to underm…

For years before Jeffrey Epstein was arrested, residents of the U.S. Virgin Islands widely understood what was happening on Little St. James.

The fight for transparency in the Epstein case has reached a breaking point, and it’s become impossible to ignore the role Donald Trump is playing in concealing the truth.

Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro Ranch in New Mexico was far more than a secluded estate—it was a fortress of influence, shielded by political connections, legal loopholes, and geographic isolation.

Cawthorne blasted Andrew’s approach, arguing he was making the same mistakes Maxwell’s legal team made — attacking the credibility of the accuser, questioning memory, and casting the lawsuit as a money grab.

Virginia Giuffre publicly declared that she intended to push forward with her abuse case against Prince Andrew — not for a quiet settlement, but with the aim of full legal exposure.

Jeffrey Epstein’s scheme to “pay” the girls he abused was never about compensation—it was a calculated legal shield designed by his attorneys to fabricate the appearance of consensual transactions.
