The True Crime Tapes

The latest tranche of documents from the Jeffrey Epstein case includes emails and correspondence suggesting that former Prince Andrew may have shared sensitive UK government information with Epstein while serving as Britain’s trade envoy. According to claims circulating online, some correspondence implied that Andrew leaked confidential details from official trade missions and was involved in soci...

Jeffrey Epstein’s rise, protection, and long run of abuse cannot be honestly framed as a partisan scandal. He cultivated relationships across the political spectrum—courting Democrats and Republicans, donating to candidates, socializing with presidents and princes, embedding himself in elite universities, financial institutions, and think tanks. His 2008 non-prosecution agreement in Florida was ne...

Documents released by the U.S. Justice Department show that convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein spent years corresponding with figures in the cybersecurity community and repeatedly tried to involve himself with two of the world’s biggest hacker conventions, DEF CON and Black Hat, in Las Vegas. According to emails reviewed by Politico, Epstein’s interest in cryptography and cybersecurity extende...

The battle between JP Morgan and the U.S. Virgin Islands over Jeffrey Epstein became one of the ugliest institutional fights to come out of the Epstein scandal because both sides were effectively accusing the other of enabling him. The USVI sued JP Morgan by arguing that the bank was not merely a passive financial institution but a crucial piece of Epstein’s machinery, claiming it processed huge s...

Ghislaine Maxwell has spent the years since her conviction trying to unwind the result of the case from almost every available angle, and the courts have rejected her at each major stop. After a federal jury convicted her in December 2021 for helping Jeffrey Epstein recruit, groom, and traffic underage girls, she was sentenced in June 2022 to 20 years in prison. Her first big post-trial effort cen...

Jeffrey Epstein’s relationship with John Brockman was one of the clearest examples of how Epstein bought his way into elite intellectual culture. Brockman was a powerful literary agent and the founder of Edge, a high-status salon world that brought together scientists, technologists, writers, entrepreneurs, and billionaires. Epstein used Brockman’s orbit as a legitimacy machine: not merely to meet...

Interlochen Center for the Arts is moving to demolish Green Lake Lodge, a building originally funded by Jeffrey Epstein and once named for him before the school stripped his name from campus after learning of his 2009 criminal conviction. Epstein had attended Interlochen’s summer camp in 1967 and later donated to the institution from 1990 to 2003. The lodge, built along Green Lake, was used to hou...

British police, specifically Thames Valley Police, are currently assessing a complaint alleging that Prince Andrew, now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, may have shared confidential government and trade information with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The inquiry was triggered by newly released U.S. Department of Justice documents showing email exchanges from 2010, while Andrew was ser...

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson are being portrayed as a scandal-bound royal duo whose relationship long outlived their marriage because it benefited both of them. Royal author Andrew Lownie describes them as the royal family’s “Bonnie and Clyde,” arguing that their post-divorce bond was built around mutual loyalty, shared self-interest, financial survival, and the preservation of st...

Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez, a former newspaper reporter and bestselling novelist who has spent recent years investigating Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro Ranch in New Mexico, says she has left her home and is preparing to leave the United States after what she claims were “directed energy weapon” attacks connected to her Epstein reporting. She has alleged that her work on Zorro Ranch, local cover-up claims, a...

The Department of Justice is trying to sell finality where there is still fog. After a chaotic rollout of Epstein-related materials, officials have framed the release as complete and urged the public to move on. But volume without structure is not transparency. Dumping massive amounts of material without clear indexing, consistent redaction explanations, and a verifiable accounting of what was wit...

Jeffrey Epstein relied heavily on his longtime pilot, Larry Visoski, to handle a range of logistical tasks that went far beyond simply flying his planes. According to court testimony and investigative reporting, Visoski purchased surveillance equipment at Epstein’s direction, including hidden cameras that were allegedly concealed inside everyday objects such as Kleenex boxes. The intent, as descri...

At its core, this hypocrisy dovetails perfectly with the Epstein coverup because it reveals the same moral collapse that allows powerful institutions to operate without accountability while their defenders selectively invoke “law and order” only when it protects the state. The same voices who excuse a federal agent killing a legally armed citizen now are often the same ones who waved away the swee...
