Downwind of Truth with Kait Justice

On October 17 2025, the House Oversight Committee released thousands more pages of Epstein documents. Katherine Keating's name was systematically removed from nearly every page. Except one.

The FBI prepares a 53-page indictment, and it seems justice is inevitable. Then, the system intervenes.

What if the Jeffrey Epstein story began not with a crime, but with a work of fiction? This episode traces the investigation back to its strangest detail: the 1973 sci fi novel Space Relations, written by Donald Barr, a former intelligence officer who would, one year later, hire a young Jeffrey Epstein at an elite Manhattan school.
