After wrapping up the Epstein scandal series last week, a couple of things continued to irk me. So I’m back for an epilogue of sorts… an episode that may be the end of my take on the Epstein story for good, or maybe just for now. Only time will tell.

"If we found six men that they were hiding in two hours, imagine how many men they are covering up for in those three million files." Between his release from jail in 2009 and his arrest in 2019, Jeffrey Epstein maintained relationships with some of the most powerful people in the world. He traveled freely and regularly hosted gatherings at his properties. He gave money to institutions that accept...

"The evidence points to a combination of negligence and misconduct." In the early hours of 10 August 2019, correctional officers at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Lower Manhattan began their rounds. Shortly after 6:30 a.m., officers approached a cell on the ninth floor of the facility’s Special Housing Unit, a segregated area used for inmates who require administrative separation. Inside...

"We told the truth back then. They just didn't care." Following his release from prison in 2009, Jeffrey Epstein set out to re-enter the inner circle of high society. Having been branded a sex offender by federal prosecutors, Epstein quickly found that there was little resistance to him moving around in the same crowd of wealthy and influential people he'd spent the past three decades cultivating....

"Every day that passes makes it harder to hold him accountable." In the spring of 2008, inside the offices of the United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, a document was finalized that brought an end to the federal government’s investigation of Jeffrey Epstein. The document was a Non-Prosecution Agreement, a type of agreement used to resolve cases without a trial. But this NPA...

"I believed in the process. I thought that if we did our jobs the right way, the outcome would take care of itself. I learned that isn't always true." In October 2005, detectives from the Palm Beach Police Department arrived at 358 El Brillo Way. Residents assumed its owner, Jeffrey Epstein, was just another wealthy resident, but officers had been keeping tabs on the mysterious financier for month...

There has been an update in the story of Tanya Jackson & Tatiana Dykes ("Peaches" and "Baby Doe" from the Long Island Serial Killer episodes back in 2016). After using genetic genealogy to identify both victims earlier this year, authorities charged 66-year-old Florida resident Andrew Dykes with their deaths...

There has been another major update in the story of Toyah Cordingley (episode #169 from 2021). After a trial earlier this year ended in a mistrial, the case against Rajwinder Singh was sent back to the Cairns Supreme Court. In November 2025, a four-week trial began to decide his fate...

"If Jeffrey was the enigma, she was the translator." On the morning of 5 November 1991, a body was found floating in the Atlantic near the Canary Islands. It was Robert Maxwell, one of Britain's most famous and controversial businessman. Hours earlier he had vanished from his yacht, the Lady Ghislaine , anchored off the Spanish coast. His death immediately became front-page news in the UK and acro...

"He stood out as this young guy in this weird coat." In 1991, business magnate Leslie Wexner signed a general power of attorney that gave Jeffrey Epstein authority to act on his behalf in nearly all matters of business and finance. The document allowed Epstein, a young financial consultant that Wexner had just met a few years prior, to sign checks, open and close bank accounts, buy and sell proper...

"No fiction author would have had the temerity to invent a disorder of such incredible clinical diversity and puzzling behavior." In the winter of 1916-1917, as World War I raged, physicians in Europe began noticing bizarre cases of brain illness. Thousands arrived at hospitals with high fevers, headaches, confusion, and a host of other factors - suspected at first to be meningitis or even poisoni...

"The slaying of the entire family promises to become a mystery which will take much time to unravel..." By the first anniversary of the Villisca murders, the Moore house stood shuttered. The local sheriff had nothing new to add to the case file. Evidence had spoiled, witnesses had drifted, and rumor had begun to harden into folklore. In the years that would follow, several suspects would be presen...

"Call the marshal. Tell him to come quick. There's something awful in there." On the morning of 10 June 1912, Mary Peckham stepped out her back door to hang her laundry. Her house stood next to the Moore family's home in Villisca, Iowa; close enough that she could usually hear the soft chaos of their mornings. The Moores were early risers, and their routine rarely varied. That morning, though, the...

On this special episode of Unresolved, Micheal is joined by bestselling author and CNN lead anchor Jake Tapper to discuss his new book, Race Against Terror , a nonfiction thriller that begins on a crowded refugee ship in the Mediterranean and ends in a courtroom in Brooklyn. The book revolves around Ibrahim Sulieman Adnan Harun, also known as Spin Ghul ("The White Rose"), an al-Qaeda jihadist who...

"We just want our daughter's remains returned so we can have some closure to our grief." On 15 August 2015, employees at the Mission Park Funeral Chapels North in San Antonio, TX closed up for the evening. They'd just held a service for a young woman named Julie Mott who had perished after a lifelong battle with cystic fibrosis. By 4:30 PM that Saturday, the doors were locked and the ADT alarm sys...

There has been an update in the Austin Yogurt Shop Murders (episodes #133 - #135 from 2020).

"State officials have probably noticed an increase as well as an unusual distribution of Medfly infestation in Los Angeles County since March 1989. This was no coincidence." The Mediterranean fruit fly, better known as the medfly, is about as unassuming as an insect can get. But the pest, native to sub-Saharan Africa, comes with enormous stakes. The medfly can infest more than 200 plant species, p...

"It was clearly part of our investigation that she was killed prior to the fire, and the fire was used to cover up her murder." On the morning of 20 October 2016, firefighters were called to a quiet suburban neighborhood in Lockport, New York. There, they found a small fire burning in the front bedroom of a duplex, which was easily quelled. However, amidst the charred linens was the body of the ho...

"Serial killers in the past have often been found to have started with animal torture." In October 2017, the mutilated body of a cat was found in a rural area outside of Olympia, Washington. At the time, people tried to explain it away. Maybe it was a car. Maybe coyotes. Nobody wanted to consider the alternative. But as winter turned into 2018, more fragments turned up. Severed limbs in a field ou...

“... to date, there are no confirmed reports of any clowns actually abducting, harming, or killing kids… There just aren’t. There are zero.” Do you remember when there were a bunch of clown sightings a few years back? It seemed like every week brought new reports of creepy clowns lurking at the edge of woods, roaming neighborhoods, and leering from parking lots. They waved at startled onlookers, c...
