The Epstein Chronicles

Former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown has called for police to expand their investigation into Prince Andrew—also referred to as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor—by examining how public funds were used during his time as the UK’s trade envoy. Brown argues that newly surfaced material tied to the Epstein files raises serious questions about whether taxpayer money funded not just official duties, but pote...

Ghislaine Maxwell’s lawyers argued that she could be safely released before trial under an unusually strict bail package designed to eliminate any realistic possibility of escape. Their proposals included multimillion-dollar secured bonds backed by assets belonging to Maxwell, her husband and other supporters, home confinement in New York, electronic monitoring, round-the-clock armed security and...

The dispute between Prince Andrew and King Charles over Royal Lodge centered on the king’s effort to reduce his brother’s royal privileges after the Epstein scandal and Andrew’s determination to remain in the 30-room Windsor mansion. Charles reportedly wanted Andrew to move into the smaller Frogmore Cottage, arguing that Royal Lodge was too large and expensive for a nonworking royal whose public d...

The alleged confession to Lance Twiggs is among the strongest publicly available pieces of evidence because it is not presented as a vague secondhand rumor or an isolated statement stripped of context. Twiggs told investigators that Robinson sent messages accepting responsibility for Charlie Kirk’s killing, then confirmed the admission face-to-face the following day when Twiggs asked whether what...

Leon Black used his appearance before the House Oversight Committee to defend his long-running relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and explain the extraordinary $158 million he paid him between 2013 and 2017. Black maintained that the money purchased legitimate tax, estate-planning and family-office services that allegedly saved him between $1 billion and $2 billion. He said Epstein deceived him abo...

Epstein survivors accused Todd Blanche of effectively shutting the door on additional investigations during a tense meeting at the Justice Department. Although Blanche invited the women to provide the FBI with any new evidence they possessed, he reportedly suggested that the existing record might not provide sufficient grounds for further prosecutions and offered no concrete plan for examining unr...

A former Epstein assistant identified as “Anya” describes how she was drawn into his orbit through a modeling contact in Paris and promises that he could advance her career. Instead, she says Epstein gradually built what she calls an “ecosystem of abuse,” housing roughly a dozen female assistants, controlling their money, healthcare and employment, demanding constant availability and repeatedly se...

The FBI’s Epstein-related accountability problem stretches back to at least 1996, when Maria Farmer reported allegations involving Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and the exploitation of underage girls. The complaint was documented, yet no prosecution followed, and Epstein was allowed to continue operating for years before Palm Beach police opened a new investigation in 2005. Even after the FBI...

Leon Black has tried to portray his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein as primarily professional, limited to sophisticated tax and estate-planning work, while insisting that he knew nothing about Epstein’s criminal activities and eventually realized Epstein had deceived and overcharged him. The record, however, points to a relationship that was far more extensive and personal than that description...

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...

The class-action lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase was brought on behalf of Jeffrey Epstein survivors who alleged that the bank knowingly benefited from and helped sustain Epstein’s sex-trafficking operation by continuing to provide him with essential financial services despite years of obvious warning signs. The survivors argued that JPMorgan was not merely a passive bank that happened to hold Epste...

A former senior Foreign Office official told lawmakers that he was instructed to move ahead with appointing Peter Mandelson despite raising concerns during the vetting process, including issues connected to Mandelson’s associations and the potential political fallout. According to his testimony, he was effectively told to “get on with it,” signaling that the decision had already been made at highe...

Prince Andrew was effectively pushed out of Pitch@Palace, the entrepreneurship initiative he founded to connect startup founders with investors, after his disastrous 2019 BBC Newsnight interview about Jeffrey Epstein. The interview intensified scrutiny of Andrew’s relationship with Epstein and triggered an exodus of corporate sponsors, including KPMG, Standard Chartered and Barclays. With the init...

Tyler Robinson’s father, Matthew Robinson, has continued operating the family’s successful stone and marble business in St. George, Utah, while his son awaits trial for the alleged murder of Charlie Kirk. The company reportedly relies on word-of-mouth advertising and longstanding relationships with local contractors, many of whom have continued doing business with the family despite the criminal c...

Alan Dershowitz has spent years presenting himself as a fearless defender of due process, loudly attacking Epstein survivors, journalists, and critics while insisting that he was eager to tell Congress his side of the story. Yet when the opportunity reportedly arrived for a transcribed interview about his role on Jeffrey Epstein’s legal team, the Florida non-prosecution agreement, and his public c...

Virginia Roberts Giuffre named the men she said had abused her or participated in Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s trafficking operation long before the Epstein scandal became a worldwide obsession. Years before Epstein’s 2019 arrest, she had already provided names in sworn testimony, legal filings, interviews and communications with investigators, including Prince Andrew and other wealthy,...

Jeffrey Epstein used the modeling industry as both a recruiting pipeline and a layer of legitimacy, surrounding himself with agents, scouts and young aspiring models who could be brought into his orbit under the promise of castings, introductions, travel or career opportunities. Many of these girls were teenagers, foreign nationals or newcomers with little money, limited support and an intense des...

Jes Staley asked a federal court to dismiss JPMorgan Chase’s third-party lawsuit against him, which arose from the class-action case brought by survivors who accused the bank of enabling Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking operation. JPMorgan sought to make Staley personally responsible for any damages it might owe, arguing that he concealed what he knew about Epstein, protected Epstein’s relationsh...

On August 22, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice released redacted transcripts and audio recordings of a two-day interview it conducted in July with Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year federal prison sentence for her role in Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking ring. During the interview, Maxwell denied ever seeing any inappropriate behavior by former President Donald Trump, describing him...

Prince Andrew reportedly used private access to Buckingham Palace as a way to impress women connected to Jeffrey Epstein, with one of the most striking attractions being the opportunity to sit on the monarch’s throne. Accounts have described Andrew leading unauthorized or highly unusual private tours through restricted areas of the palace, treating spaces associated with the Crown as though they w...
