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

2025/10/04

Jeffrey Epstein was a steady political donor for years, spreading money across both parties while cultivating influence. From 1989 to 2003, he gave more than $139,000 to Democrats and over $18,000 to Republicans, often in relatively small increments that added up over time. His contributions included donations to figures like Chuck Schumer in the 1990s and a $50,000 check to Bill Richardson’s 2002 gubernatorial campaign in New Mexico. Beyond politics, Epstein also positioned himself as a benefactor

Leon Black, billionaire cofounder of Apollo Global Management, was for years a heavyweight political donor, spreading money to both Democrats and Republicans. In 2016 alone, he poured in more than $590,000 across campaigns and committees, with large sums going to both parties’ super PACs—$250,000 to the Democratic-aligned Senate Majority PAC and $150,000 to the Republican-aligned Congressional Leadership Fund. His donations continued into later cycles, but the amounts dropped sharply once his

Les Wexner, billionaire founder of L Brands and longtime Epstein associate, has poured significant money into Republican politics over the years. He was a high-profile donor in the 2012 presidential race, hosting fundraisers for Mitt Romney and giving $250,000 to the pro-Romney “Restore Our Future” super PAC. In 2015, he chipped in another $500,000 to Jeb Bush’s “Right to Rise” PAC, solidifying his reputation as one of Ohio’s most influential GOP financiers. For decades, Wexner’s name appeared in

2025/10/04

The rumor mill has churned out one of its juiciest royal tidbits: that King Charles once gave Prince Andrew such a scathing rebuke that the disgraced duke actually cried. Supposedly, Charles told him—point blank—that he would never be allowed back into royal life, and Andrew, who still harbored fantasies of a comeback, was so “utterly bereft” he broke down in tears. Think about it: a grown man, a prince of the realm, sobbing because his big brother told him his days of cutting ribbons and pretending

2025/10/04

The Crime Victims’ Rights Act (CVRA) was meant to guarantee Epstein’s survivors a voice in the legal process, but in practice their rights were ignored during the 2007–2008 non-prosecution agreement between Epstein’s legal team and federal prosecutors in Florida. Survivors were never told about the deal in advance, even though the CVRA required that they be notified of and consulted on major decisions in the case. Instead, prosecutors secretly arranged a sweetheart plea bargain that allowed Epstein

The New York Times filed a lawsuit against the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) seeking access to sealed records related to Jeffrey Epstein’s death, arguing that the public has a right to know what happened inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center in the lead-up to his demise. The lawsuit specifically demanded internal documents, surveillance logs, and other materials that could shed light on why such a high-profile inmate was left vulnerable despite warnings about his safety.

Why Didn't Cy Vance Prosecute Jeffrey Epstein

Jeffrey Epstein was protected by many, many different people throughout his life. From politicians to law enforcement, it seems that no matter where the dice landed for Epstein, he never crapped out. One of the offices that should have been all over Epstein and his behavior is the New York State Prosecutors office that was led by Cy Vance. Yet Epstein was able to dictate his terms and do as he pleased. The question is...why? to contact

Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell And The UK Accusation

The Epstein Chronicles ·

2025/10/03

In the UK, allegations against Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell centered on claims that they trafficked and exploited young women on British soil, further expanding the scope of their international abuse network. Virginia Giuffre alleged she was trafficked to London in 2001, where she was photographed with Prince Andrew at Maxwell’s Belgravia townhouse, a picture that became one of the most damning symbols of the scandal. Maxwell, with her British social connections, was accused of acting as

Vicky Ward has also spoken about how her reporting on Jeffrey Epstein was later pitched to The New Yorker, but the magazine ultimately declined to pursue the story in depth. Ward has suggested that despite the seriousness of the allegations she uncovered, the piece never gained traction within that outlet, reflecting the same pattern she faced at Vanity Fair—powerful figures like Epstein being shielded by editorial caution and institutional hesitance. For Ward, it was another instance where the

In his four-page letter to Judge Arun Subramanian, Sean “Diddy” Combs expressed deep remorse and accepted full responsibility for the pain he caused others, especially his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and another former partner. He admitted that his past behavior was rooted in selfishness, drugs, and excess, and directly confronted the violence caught on video, saying the images “play over and over in my head.” He acknowledged being “dead wrong” for putting his hands on someone he claimed to love,

On the National Mall, a guerrilla statue of Donald Trump and Epstein holding hands was reinstalled, sparking outrage, laughter, and confusion from passersby while reigniting conversations about Epstein’s ties to the powerful.

The defense, meanwhile, will argue for a shorter sentence, framing Diddy’s time already served, his public fall from grace, and efforts to show remorse as reasons the judge should go lighter.The hearing itself is expected to feature impact statements from victims, a personal address from

The PROMIS software scandal and the Jeffrey Epstein case, while separated by decades and context, share strikingly similar hallmarks.

The release of the 2006 Florida grand jury records tied to Jeffrey Epstein’s first arrest had a very specific date: July 1, 2024. That date was not chosen at random — it was the exact day that Florida’s new law, HB 117, went into effect. This law created the first-ever pathway to unseal grand jury materials in cases involving sexual offenses with minors if the subject of the investigation was deceased. Palm Beach Circuit Judge Luis Delgado signed the release order the same morning the law became

The effort to unseal the 2006 Florida state grand jury records tied to Jeffrey Epstein’s first arrest moved slowly but eventually inched closer to the finish line after years of stalled petitions. A turning point came in 2023 when an appellate court in CA Florida Holdings LLC v. Aronberg ruled that lower courts did have discretion to release grand jury materials under certain conditions — a break from earlier rulings that had kept the records fully sealed. This legal shift paved the way for renewed

For years, the transcripts and evidence from the 2006 Palm Beach County grand jury — convened to investigate Epstein’s alleged sexual exploitation of minors — remained sealed under Florida’s strict grand jury secrecy rules. Media organizations (notably the Palm Beach Post) and public interest groups repeatedly sought access, arguing that the public needed transparency about why only a single solicitation-of-prostitution charge was returned despite far more serious allegations. These petitions were

A provocative billboard in New York criticized Prince Andrew by mocking his alleged involvement in the Epstein scandal. The billboard, erected by a Manhattan storage company, used a tongue-in-cheek approach to highlight the sex abuse allegations and the multimillion-dollar settlement he reached with Virginia Giuffre. Its message forced the public and media to confront a topic that many prefer to evade: the intersection of royalty, privilege, and alleged trafficking.The billboard’s appearance

He has argued that law enforcement deliberately overlooked or failed to secure this evidence, suggesting that the missing recordings were the result of collusion or a cover-up.
