The Epstein Chronicles

A 1999 child-protection campaign linked to the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children brought Prince Andrew and Peter Mandelson together at a high-profile event focused on safeguarding vulnerable children. Both men were publicly positioned as advocates against abuse, aligning themselves with efforts to protect minors. Within a short period after that introduction, however, both...

The October 24, 2025 hearing centered on Tyler Robinson’s request to appear at future court proceedings in civilian clothing and without restraints. His attorneys argued that routinely presenting him in jail clothing and shackles would undermine the presumption of innocence, interfere with his ability to participate in his defense and create prejudicial images that could spread through extensive m...

In April 1981, Jeffrey Epstein testified before the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of an inquiry involving trading in St. Joe Minerals securities. Epstein described himself as a limited partner and account executive at Bear Stearns who assisted the sales force with commodities and financial-futures recommendations. The questioning focused heavily on his recent departure from the firm,...

An autopsy failed to establish an immediate cause of death for Daniel Siad, the 69-year-old modeling scout who was found dead at his home in Bois-Colombes, near Paris. French prosecutors said examiners found no evidence of recent violence connected to his death, but noted that Siad was in poor overall health and had suffered an earlier heart attack, potentially leaving him vulnerable to sudden car...

Karyna Shuliak, a 37-year-old Belarus-born dentist, emerged from newly released investigative records as Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime girlfriend and one of the potential principal beneficiaries of his remaining fortune. Shuliak met Epstein in 2011, when she was 21 and living in New York on a temporary student visa, and remained close to him for nearly eight years. Epstein financed her education, hel...

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer tore into Leon Black for what he described as a bad-faith effort to obstruct Congress’s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. After Black refused to answer questions during his voluntary interview about nondisclosure agreements involving women, Comer subpoenaed him to return for a sworn deposition and ordered him to produce the agreements. Black subsequ...

Jeffrey Epstein cultivated the image of a major Wall Street operator by surrounding himself with billionaires, bankers, hedge-fund executives and private-equity leaders. His relationships with figures such as Leslie Wexner, Glenn Dubin, Leon Black and Jes Staley made him appear deeply embedded in the highest levels of finance, even though the precise origins of much of his fortune and the full sco...

Prince Andrew was repeatedly warned that sitting down with the BBC to discuss his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein was an enormous risk. His public-relations adviser, Jason Stein, reportedly argued against the interview for months, while defamation lawyer Paul Tweed also urged Andrew not to proceed. The concern was obvious: a lengthy, unscripted interrogation would force him to explain years of que...

The Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General (OIG) report into Jeffrey Epstein’s 2007 Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) presents a disturbing portrait of federal cowardice, systemic failures, and deliberate abdication of prosecutorial duty. Instead of zealously pursuing justice against a serial predator with dozens of underage victims, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District...

I spent years digging into the Jeffrey Epstein situation when almost nobody wanted to touch it. During that time, speaking publicly about what was really happening came with actual consequences—jobs vanished, relationships fell apart, and people distanced themselves fast. I dealt with intimidation attempts, anonymous calls, and pressure meant to get me to stop. Instead of backing off, I drove to Z...

After Jeffrey Epstein’s arrest in July 2019, Ghislaine Maxwell seemed to vanish. Reporters, investigators, and even people who had once moved in her social circles said they did not know where she was living or how to reach her. She stopped appearing publicly, avoided the press, and reportedly moved between properties while using layers of privacy and security to keep her location hidden. As scrut...

Spencer Kuvin said he remains deeply skeptical that Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide, arguing that the man he encountered during depositions and mediations never appeared defeated, remorseful or frightened about his future. According to Kuvin, Epstein was extraordinarily arrogant and seemed convinced that he would once again escape serious consequences. Kuvin said that attitude, combined with the r...

Prince Andrew publicly tried to distance himself from Ghislaine Maxwell as scrutiny of Jeffrey Epstein’s network intensified, presenting their relationship as something largely confined to the past. However, later reporting and released communications indicated that the connection continued privately for years. Maxwell reportedly remained in contact with Andrew until at least 2019, long after the...

Former Attorney General Pam Bondi is now set to sit for a closed-door deposition before the House Oversight Committee on May 29, after initially refusing to comply with a subpoena tied to the investigation into the Justice Department’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. Her earlier no-show triggered escalating pressure from lawmakers—particularly Democrats—who moved toward contempt proceedings...

JPMorgan Chase’s long relationship with Jeffrey Epstein is a masterclass in corporate hypocrisy. While everyday customers face freezes, fees, and scrutiny for minor transactions, the bank happily processed more than a billion dollars for a convicted sex offender over fifteen years. Compliance officers raised alarms, but their warnings were treated as noise while executives chased profits. Instead...

British authorities have moved to escalate their response to the fallout from the Epstein document releases by creating a new national police taskforce focused specifically on potential exploitation and sexual abuse cases linked to the UK. The initiative is designed to coordinate intelligence across multiple police forces, which had previously been working in parallel, and to ensure that allegatio...
