Hey, I'm Josh Spiegel, host of the podcast,
Lunatic in the newsroom.
If you enjoy journalism that drifts into my old panic
wild overthinking and a guaranteed nervous breakdown,
Lunatic in the newsroom is for you.
It's news like you've never heard before.
The only newsroom with a panic button.
You'll laugh, you'll cry and gasp and horror
as the show spirals completely out of control.
It's not just news, it's emotionally unstable.
Lunatic in the newsroom, listen today.
Welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
As you're all aware, we are at the Christmas break
for the trial.
So obviously there's nothing groundbreaking happening
in the mornings or even in the evenings at this point.
But that's okay, because we're still going to be here
adding some context.
And we're going to do that today by talking about
the grand jury transcripts from Palm Beach.
Now, there was a lot of talk a few weeks ago
that this judge was going to release these grand jury
transcripts.
And that would have been a huge boost in the arm
for transparency.
We all know that whatever went on in that grand jury room
in 2006, it was not good, all right?
Whatever was going on in that grand jury room,
based on that arrest, was not up to par.
And the fact that only one of those girls
was able to give their story in front of the grand jury
tells you everything you need to know about the prosecutors
and about the whole entire scenario that unfolded.
This prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein, the original prosecution,
was legitimately one of the biggest
travesties of justice, perhaps ever.
When you look at the grand scope of it all
and you look at the disgusting nature of his crimes
and the wake of misery he left, I mean,
it's hard not to look at it like that.
And the fact that Barry Cresher and the state prosecutor's
office in Florida worked hand in hand with Dershowitz
and Lefkowitz and the rest of Jeffrey Epstein's legal team
to not only get him off, but to destroy his own witnesses,
Barry Cresher's own witnesses, meaning these girls,
is just unbelievable to me.
And you have this judge down there in Palm Beach.
You know, one of the good ol' boys,
one of the been around forever's, still mucking things up,
still not interested in transparency.
You would think after all these years
and all of the scrutiny over the Jeffrey Epstein case
that some of these judges would wise up by now.
But like I always say, they think they're feudal lords
and these courtrooms are their fiefdoms
and they can do whatever they want.
And these lifetime-elected, lifetime-appointed judges,
bad news, folks, talk about people who are power-hungry.
Every now and then, you'll run across one of these judges
like this guy and you just shake your head.
But there's been a lot of them
when it comes to the Jeffrey Epstein case.
A lot of these judges, a lot of these people
in positions of power have failed these girls time and time again.
And with this latest blow,
this judge not going to release these transcripts,
it's just another victory for the scumbags
and just another hurdle in the way of those
who are trying to bring those scumbags to justice.
This morning, we have an article from the Palm Beach Post
and the author is Jane Musgrave.
Was the Jeffrey Epstein case intentionally sunk?
Judge won't, excuse me,
Judge won't release secret grand jury papers.
And again, it just, it's another blow to transparency.
It's another blow to those of us who want the truth
and it just, again, throws up another curtain
over what everybody perceives at this point
is government malfeasance.
You would think that they'd want to expose that, right?
You would think that they'd want to put that on blast,
but that's not how it works.
They go on to cover your ass mode
and they got to protect the other scumbags
that they work with.
And it's just such a dog and pony show at this point.
And the illusion that there's a fair justice system,
the illusion that there isn't a two-tier justice system
is being shattered on a regular basis at this point.
A Palm Beach County Circuit judge on Monday
refused to release secret documents
that could explain why a 2006 grand jury
indicted serial child molester, Jeffrey Epstein,
on a single charge of prostitution.
Despite evidence that showed he abused
more than a dozen girls at his Palm Beach mansion.
Now let that sink in.
For those of you who aren't really completely up to date
on the case, those of you who have had a life
for the last three years, this might seem like
what the hell are you talking about here?
How is that even possible?
But this is what they've been dealing with,
meaning the survivors from the beginning.
Law enforcement has not been on their side.
Law enforcement, in fact, a lot of the time has worked
against them.
And you see it here again, when you have
this judge who makes the decision
that these grand jury documents will not see the light of day,
as if it's some sort of national security issue
where nobody should ever see those grand jury documents.
Now I understand if there was a legitimate reason,
a legitimate issue keeping those documents from the public.
But there's no legitimate reason,
unless of course you're trying to cover for somebody,
unless of course you're trying to protect your friends.
In a 10 page order, Circuit Judge Donald Huffle rejected arguments
by attorneys for the Palm Beach Post
who pushed him to release the records,
citing a rarely used state law
that allows the secrecy of the grand jury to be pierced
to further the interests of justice.
And if this is in a case where that hits home,
I don't know what is.
These grand jury testimony should be only released.
They shouldn't be hidden from the public
for all of these years,
especially if it moves the interests of justice.
And it certainly would,
considering the non-prossecution agreement
is based on all of this.
So to get rid of that non-prossecution agreement,
wouldn't it stand her reason
that having these grand jury documents released
would go a long way to making that occur?
While Huffle noted the newspaper offered strong arguments,
he said he was bound by the state's law.
The court rules against the newspaper
because the established and binding maxims of Florida law
can strain it to do so, halfly wrote, halfly wrote.
And again, we know that that's not 100% the case.
If it promotes the interest of justice
as according to the state law in Florida,
then the documents can be released.
The transcripts can be released.
But they don't have any interest in doing that.
Him, the other judge that's involved in this,
Crystal Marx, all of them had ties to Barry Krischer
or other people involved in the case.
That's how these things work with these bureaucrats.
They're all friends,
they're all going to the same company functions.
And on and on and on it goes.
We've discussed it a lot here on this podcast.
You're not buying the lawyer for what they're going to do
in the courtroom for the most part.
You're paying for a lawyer
for the connections they have outside of the courtroom,
for the access they can get you to the prosecutor's office.
Why do you think in a situation like Maxwell's,
she hires somebody like Christian Everdo.
X prosecutor has a lock with the SDNY,
knows all of the prosecutors.
They're all probably chummy.
They probably go to barbecues together.
You know what I'm talking about.

Hi, this is Alex Cantrowitz.
I'm the host of Big Technology podcast,
a longtime reporter and an on-air contributor to CMBC.
And if you're like me, you're trying to figure out
how artificial intelligence is changing
the business world and our lives.
So each week on Big Technology,
I bring on key actors from companies building AI tech
and outsiders trying to influence it.
Asking where this is all going,
they come from places like Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon,
and plenty more.
So if you want to be smart with your wallet,
your career choices,
and meetings with your colleagues and at dinner parties,
listen to Big Technology podcast
or ever you get your podcasts.
Hey, I'm Josh Speagle, host of the podcast,
Lunatic in the newsroom.
If you enjoy journalism that drifts into my old panic,
wild overthinking and a guaranteed nervous breakdown,
Lunatic in the newsroom is for you.
It's news like you've never heard before.
The only newsroom with a panic button,
you'll laugh, you'll cry and gasp and horror
as the show spirals completely out of control.
It's not just news, it's emotionally unstable.
Lunatic in the newsroom, listen today.
While state law allows the release
of grand jury records to further the interest of justice,
he said it is clear the legislature intended that exception
to be used only in pending criminal or civil cases.
So just because this happened a while back
and now Epstein's dead,
let's just forget it ever happened.
We'll just move on and you know what?
It is what it is, sorry.
The girls who are victimized, no justice for them.
It's basically what this judge is saying.
And I mean, it shouldn't shock anybody
considering, you know, what we see these judges
do on a regular basis from the bench here in America.
But you would think that something like this
with all of the interests surrounding it,
all of the questions that still need to be answered,
that if you were a judge, you'd say to yourself,
you know what, in the interests of justice,
in the interests of moving the truth forward,
I'm gonna release these transcripts.
And that's what the law is put on the books for,
but unfortunately this judge didn't wanna interpret
that interpret it that way.
Instead, the newspaper advocates
a more expensive interpretation of the term.
He wrote,
the newspaper wants the ability to publish the materials
and reference them in its reporting
and also to make the materials available to the public.
Yeah, that's how this works, judge, okay?
The public is interested in a case
that's probably one of the most corrupt of all time.
So yeah, there is going to be a bit of hesitancy to trust you.
There is going to be a bit of cynicism
when it comes to court rulings.
And the fact that you wanna keep this stuff
away from the public is just going to feed
into conspiracy theories and outlandish thoughts.
The government plays a huge part in all of that.
They could stem and stop a whole bunch of the conspiracy stuff
with a whole lot of different topics
if they just stop their bullshit.
But they don't wanna ever be transparent.
They wanna keep everything private,
everything's a national security issue, isn't it?
And that's what they'll say.
Or if you're looking to get information about something
say like Jeffrey Epstein's first alleged suicide attempt,
what they'll say is the information is unavailable
because it's still part of an ongoing investigation
and that ongoing investigation has to do with Tartaglioni.
So they'll just run you in circles
for as long as possible.
And if somehow you do get some freedom
of information, act information from them,
it'll be heavily redacted or partial.
You'll never get the full story.
Like the newspaper's attorneys,
Halfill said the transcripts could help answer
trouble some questions about why
the politically connected multi-millionaire, pedophile,
escaped serious punishment.
Some claim that then-state attorney,
Barry Krischer, was improperly influenced
by Epstein's high octane defense team.
I agree with that.
I definitely think he was.
When you go back and you look at all of the documentation
and you look at the reporting
and you look at how things broke,
it's very obvious that he wasn't working
as an advocate for these survivors
and neither was the prosecutor's office of Florida
or a hell, the federal prosecutor's office either.
Because remember, while Acosta was the one
who was the direction man, right?
The guy who was considered the quote unquote boss
on the ground, he had people to answer to as well.
He's just a mid-level bureaucrat.
He don't make decisions like this.
He had to kick that up the chain to Mucasey
and the rest of them.
So they all failed from the top down
from the federal government all the way down to the state
and now all the way back to this judge,
absolute failures, a top of absolute failures.
It may very well be that the disclosure
of Jeffrey Epstein's grand jury records
could reveal the fair treatment did not occur
and that Mr. Epstein might have escaped
appropriate punishment through some failing
of our justice system.
Halfill said, yeah, well how about releasing the documents then?
Instead, you'll just sit on them, right?
Like a dragon hoarding its gold.
Post hasn't decided whether to appeal,
but he said state law can't be ignored on a whim
or to satisfy the public's curiosity.
The court's interpretation of the scope of the state law
end of the phrase further injustice is governed
and constrained by the established rules
of statutory construction, half, halfly wrote.
Attorneys for the post said they were reviewing the order
and had not yet decided whether to appeal.
I really hope they do.
I mean, I know it's an extra cost on them
to appeal stuff like this and the attorney fees
get to be a bit excessive, but you would think
that in the interest of justice,
in the interest of transparency,
that they would release this documentation.
And really what it comes down to
is this judge's interpretation of the law.
That's all it is.
But he said state law can't be ignored on a whim
or to satisfy the public's curiosity.
In a statement, a comptroller and clerk of the court's
Joe Abruzzo said that while he,
while he hired a top media lawyer to represent his office
in the lawsuit, he wasn't against the newspaper's request.
While Florida statute is clear on its prohibition
of releasing information from grand jury cases,
I want to be clear that I have absolutely no objection
to releasing grand jury information in the Epstein case
if directed by the court, Abruzzo said.
So the comptroller saying, look, I'll release this information,
but I have to be directed to do so by the court.
That's the only way that I can release this.
And once again, it goes back to the judges.
These guys running around like their Taiwan Lannister
in the courtroom.
He hired Shane Voight, a Tampa attorney
who won a $140 million verdict against Gauker
on behalf of retired professional wrestler, Hulk Hogan,
and has represented others in fights against news outlets
to represent the office.
During a hearing on October 22nd, Voight argued
that if half-full approved the newspaper's request,
it would open the floodgates for others to do the same.
Well, so what?
Open the floodgates.
And then on a case-by-case basis,
decide what should or what shouldn't be released.
Why is that so difficult?
Oh, is it gonna cause extra work for the clerks?
God forbid.
I mean, are we supposed to just slow everything down
and, you know, ah, well, let's wait on things here
because, you know, we don't have enough time
or enough people.
I don't even understand what any of it means.
The floodgates will open?
Well, if they're legitimate requests, then,
maybe the floodgates need to be opened.
Half-full said he could craft the narrow order
that would assure the clerk wouldn't be inundated
with demands for grand jury records.
Still, he said after reviewing the law,
he determined the documents must remain secret.
State attorney Dave Aaron Berg declined to comment
on half-full's decision.
While the paper initially named him in the lawsuit,
he was dropped after he claimed he didn't have the records.
Executives of the newspaper, which is owned by Gannett Company,
said they were disappointed by half-full's decision.
Yeah, you would think so, right?
As a newspaper organization, the idea is to get
as much information to the public as possible.
Let the public decide.
And what a better way to do that
than to provide raw data such as transcripts.
I don't need the middleman, right?
Provide us with the transcripts.
Provide us with the information that we need
and let us decide what's going on here as the public.
But no, they'll keep everything hidden.
And then what he'll do is he'll cite some obscure law here.
Oh, well, it'll cause a flood of other requests
and all of it is nonsense.
Whenever I hear any of this stuff, all I hear is no,
we don't want to be transparent.
No, you can't know the truth.
That's basically what I hear every time they start in
on the nonsense.
While the post appreciates the court's consideration
of the issues, we respectfully disagree
with the legal conclusion that public access
to the Epstein Grand Jury Materials
is not warranted under the circumstances.
Said Marable Perez-Wadsworth, president of Gnett News,
USA Today Network, and publisher of USA Today.
It is our right and responsibility
to report all aspects of this case.
And we will continue to diligently seek the facts
in our pursuit of transparency.
Can't argue with that and props to them for doing it.
I mean, is it too much to ask to have some transparency
or as the public to have the proper information
in a case that is so important?

Hi, this is Alex Cantrowitz.
I'm the host of Big Technology podcast,
a longtime reporter and an on-air contributor to CMBC.

the business world and our lives.

and at dinner parties, listen to Big Technology podcast
wherever you get your podcasts.
Post-executive editor Rich Christie echoed those sentiments.
For 16 years, the post has been driven to report
on the heinous acts of Jeffrey Epstein for two reasons.
Justice for the victimized girls
and accountability for our readers, he said.
Today's ruling by circuit judge Huffle,
while disappointing, does not deter us
from our mission of furthering justice
for Epstein's young victims.
The post will always fight to shine a spotlight
wherever it is needed to expose the actions
or inactions of those charged with serving
and protecting the public, period, he concluded.
Hey, I'll tell you what, I'm all for that.
And I'll be right here with you right in shotgun
as far as trying to get these transcripts
because it's a big deal.
It's a huge deal.
And I can't express enough how important
that non-prosecution agreement is
in protecting these people still.
And all of this plays such a huge part in that.
The ruling was a blow to efforts
to unravel the sorted case that grabbed international attention.
It also came on a day that a federal jury in New York
began deliberating whether Epstein's longtime girlfriend,
co-conspirator, Galaine Maxwell, recruited
and groomed teens for his pleasure.
The 59-year-old British socialite,
co-conspirator general all around Scuzzbad by Petal Serpent,
faces a lengthy prison term if convicted
of multiple charges in connection
with the sex trafficking scheme.
During the October hearing, the newspaper's attorneys argued
that the case was unique.
More than 15 years has passed.
Epstein is dead so none of the information
can be used against him.
The 66-year-old financier, pedophile,
who counted former president Bill Clinton
and Britain's Prince Andrew as friends hung himself,
allegedly, in a Manhattan jail cell in August 2019
while a waiting trial on dozens
of sex trafficking charges in New York.
Again, he's dead.
None of this information can be used against him
or anything like that.
So I don't understand how it won't be released.
Now look, if he was still alive
and there was a chance that this information could be used
or all right, I get it.
I might not agree with it, but I get it.
I don't agree with it
and I don't get it in this instance.
The guy's dead, he's rotting.
It's time for transparency.
A dozen girls said they were sexually abused,
only one testified.
As part of a 2019 investigation,
titled The First Failure,
sources familiar with the grand jury proceedings
told the post that while more than a dozen teens
told Palm Beach police that Epstein molested them,
only one, a 14-year-old girl was called to testify.
And this is what I talk about a lot in reference
how only one girl was called to give testimony
and how it flashes shades to what we saw here
in the Maxwell trial with only four girls being called.
While I understand the scopes a little bit different,
it's just for those of us who have been through this already,
it's concerning to see.
The sources said,
Christians, top lieutenants, vilified the teen.
Instead of focusing on the abuse she suffered
at the hands of the wealthy pedophile,
they quizzed her about her social media activity,
which included references to boys and drinking.
Her posts on our MySpace page were given a cursor
by Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz,
one of Epstein's top flight attorneys.
And that was the strategy then, it's the strategy now,
and it'll continue to be the strategy
until these juries wake up and start convicting these people.
We all know that the girls were absolutely destroyed
by not only the authorities, but by Epstein's attorneys.
Oh, they were talking to boys, they were smoking weed,
they drank on their MySpace page, really?
Let me ask you, how many of you out there
as young teenagers didn't do any of those things?
I know we all did, I know I did.
If you're gonna base my life on what I did as a young man,
then boy, I'll tell you, I'd be in big trouble.
Her alleged treatment by state prosecutors
could explain why grand jurors indicted Epstein
on the lone prostitution charge,
instead of multiple counts of child molestation
that were sought by the police.
The prostitution charge ignored the tender age
of Epstein's accusers, and the fact that teens
under the age of 18 couldn't legally consent to sex.
We've talked about that from the jump, too.
How can you even call a girl under 18 a prostitute
when they can't even consent to sex?
How is that even logical?
Legal experts say prosecutors will
tremendous influence over grand jurors
who aren't skilled in the law.
Sidentically, some embrace a time honored maxim
that a prosecutor, if he desired,
could indict a ham sandwich.
And this is a fact as well.
You know, the grand jury rooms are places
where indictments definitely come down at a huge swell.
The statement, you get a ham sandwich
indicted at a grand jury, certainly rings true
because it's something that a lot of people
talk about who are in the know.
After his death, scores of young women came forward
publicly describing how Epstein sexually assaulted them.
At his home in Palm Beach, his penthouse apartment
in Manhattan, his ranch in New Mexico,
and his private island in the Virgin Islands.
Some said he forced them to have sex with his celebrity friends
while aboard his private jet, the Lolita Express.
Many teen victims were from Palm Beach County.
Like teens from Royal Palm Beach
and John I Leonard High Schools,
many were alert to Epstein's homes
with the promise of being paid $200 to give him a massage.
He greeted them wearing little more than a towel.
He offered to pay them, more to disrobe,
let them fondle them, and to have sex.
Boy, what does that all sound like?
Sounds like a bunch of testimony we just heard, doesn't it?
Imagine this testimony mirrors that testimony,
and if they would have actually done their job
during this first arrest and had more than one of the victims
give their testimony to the grand jury,
a lot of this could have been stopped perhaps.
The girls, some from hard-scrabble backgrounds,
were promised careers in high fashion, college educations,
or other perks that were beyond their reach.
The grand jury marked the beginning
of when the case spun out of control.
Angry at Chrisher's handling at his agency,
angry at Chrisher's handling of his agency's investigation,
Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Ryder went to the FBI.
Ultimately in a secret deal, South Florida attorney,
Alex Acosta agreed to shell the 53-page
federal indictment against Epstein
if he would plead guilty to state prostitution charges.
And now remember, it's not just Acosta here.
He's the scumbag with no spine, no doubt about it,
and he deserves his infamy for his role.
But he wasn't the one who made the decision.
He might have been the one who filed it up the chain of command,
but he didn't okay it, that's for sure.
As part of the so-called non-prosecution agreement,
Chrisher added a charge of solicitation of a minor for prostitution.
Federal prosecutors insisted on the second charge
because it would force Epstein to register as a sex offender,
how that worked out new Mexico.
Oh, that's right, he didn't have to register there.
Because he knew he planned all of this, he took precautions.
On June 30th, 2008, Epstein pleaded guilty
in Palm Beach County Circuit Court
to both prostitution charges.
He served 13 months of an 18-month sentence
in a largely vacant wing of the County Stockade.
He was given liberal work release privileges.
He was allowed to spend up to 12 hours a day, six days a week,
working at a private foundation he created months earlier.
The fallout from what one state prosecutor described
as the deal of the century was far reaching, if delayed,
and not only was Epstein out,
according to some of these other accusers,
he was abusing them while he was out on this work release program.
Fantastic job done by the federal government, huh?
Fantastic job done by the Florida State authorities.
After Epstein was charged in New York,
a cost to resigned as former president
Donald Trump's Labor Secretary
when questions were raised about his involvement
in crafting the non-prosecution agreement.
Before his resignation,
a cost to sought to blame Chrisher.
He claimed he was forced to clean up a mess Chrisher created
when the state prosecutor refused to file serious charges
against Epstein.
A cost to point it out that Chrisher originally offered
to allow Epstein to plead guilty to aggravate a assault.
Serve no jail time and have the felony record erased
if he complied with the terms of his probation.
That was unacceptable, a cost to said,
during a nationally televised news conference.
So basically, it's a a poignant game, right?
You did it, I did it, he did it, she did it.
And in reality, what they do is they cause enough confusion
and then that nobody's held responsible.
Chrisher responded that a cost was attempting
to rewrite history in a prepared statement, he said,
I can emphatically state that Mr.
Acosta's recollection of this matter is completely wrong.
A federal investigation in 2020 found
that Acosta placed too much trust in Chrisher.
A two-year state investigation completed last year
concluded that Chrisher had little input
into the non-prosecution agreement
and found no wrongdoing.
State investigators were denied access
to the grand jury proceedings.
So not only has the public locked out,
they locked out the state investigators
who were investigating wrongdoing here in the FDLE report.
Yeah, nothing, nothing to see here folks, keep on moving.
Everything is just fine, we're all fine.
After Epstein died, authorities in the U.S. Virgin Islands
worked with those who were administering his estate
to set up a fund to compensate his victims.
They wrapped up their work in August
after paying slightly more than $121 million
to more than 135 people according to the New York Times.
Look, this is a situation that, obviously, as you can tell here,
has been going on for quite some time.
And there was hope that this judge was going to be
and there was hope that this judge
was going to release these grand jury documents.
Well, that's not going to occur.
So the battle continues for transparency folks
and we'll continue to report on it
and we'll continue to talk about it
until there's some movement
and we finally get a glimpse behind the curtain.
All right folks, that's gonna do it for me today
and I'll be back later on, obviously,
with a evening update and expect some more context episodes
as well.

What's up everyone and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
One of the biggest forces in the history of forces
is the fact that Jeffrey Epstein
received that sweetheart deal that he received.
That should have never happened,
it should have never went down
and everybody involved in that sweetheart deal
should lose their pensions,
should not have a job working for the federal government
and should be looked at for perhaps even losing
their law license.
And I truly mean that when I say it.
That's how big of a travesty this was
to think that any prosecutor anywhere in the country
would give this guy this kind of deal is just beyond me.
And then for the court system,
the government to say that there is no legal basis
to invalidate the sweetheart deal is even more absurd.
So what you're telling me is there are no levers to pull on
if something goes wrong in the legal system,
we just have to deal with it.
Huh, seems like every time something goes south
in the legal system, it always ends up going
in the favor of the federal government.
Never in the favor of the people.
And once again, we're seeing that here.
So what you're telling me is your rich buddies
like Jeffrey Epstein, who get these stupid
ass non-prosecution deals handed to them
by their friends and government are just allowed to have them
and there's no recourse.
There's no way to go back and look at one of these deals
and say it was done in bad faith and get rid of it.
Just another loophole in technicality
for the so-called elite, huh?
Today we have another article from Law and Crime.
Author of this article, Jerry Lamb, headline.
Federal prosecutors say there's no legal basis
to invalidate Jeffrey Epstein sweetheart deal.
Well, I say that needs to be looked at.
Then maybe they need to come up with a new solution here
where in the future, if a deal like this is given,
a panel can be put together and the panel can look at it
and say, you know what, this is not a deal
that we're comfortable with because this is unacceptable
and it can never happen again.
The Department of Justice on Monday rejected efforts
by the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein
to get a sweetheart non-prosecution deal thrown out
so that Epstein can be prosecuted for alleged abuse
of dozens of underage girls.
Now, imagine being the judge who denies this.
In a 35-page motion, first reported by the Miami Herald,
federal prosecutors claim that Jeffrey Epstein survivors
have no legal basis to invalidate the non-prosecution agreement.
The same agreement, the judge in the case,
previously said, broke the law.
So you see what's going on here?
You have judges saying that this agreement broke the law.
Then you have a court saying, oh, well, no,
there's no recourse here for this
because there's nothing that was invalid.
So they can't even figure it out.
As far as the legal system itself, what's right or wrong here?
And then they expect us just to stomach it
and suck it down and be okay with it?
No way.
There is no chance that this legal agreement should have stood.
There is no chance that it should stand at all.
And in fact, it's ridiculous that anyone would refer to this
and try and use it as a defense
as we found out in the previous article.
It holds no water unless you're down in Florida.
Many of Epstein survivors were middle school and high school girls
between the ages of 13 and 16
who were recruited from the local South Florida area.
According to prosecutors, despite a judge's earlier ruling
that the plea deal violated the Crime Victims Rights Act,
Epstein survivors cannot demand that the government
take any additional action because the CVRA
did not enumerate any mandatory criminal penalties
at the time of its passing.
So basically what they're doing is using legal ease
loopholes and technicalities in the law itself
that the Congress passed, that Congress wrote
to get their buddies off once again.
And this is how they do it, right?
They put these loopholes and these technicalities
in these laws that you or I would never be able to exploit
because we don't have the money.
We don't have the legal power and the backing
to really go toe to toe with the federal government.
But somebody like Jeffrey Epstein or Golan Max,
well, they certainly do.
And when you have those resources, well,
the world is your oyster.
In Monday's DOJ filing by attorney,
Young Pack, who was appointed by President Donald Trump,
the government admits that the survivors were treated unfairly
but says that prosecutors were within their rights to do so.
Real nice by Young Pack, huh?
Hell of a guy.
Hell of a attorney here.
I mean, this guy's defending.
Just think about this for a minute, okay folks.
This man is defending this prosecution agreement.
All because he doesn't want the government
to have some dirt on their face.
Instead of just admitting that this deal was bad,
it was garbage and the government shit the bed,
they'll fight it to the very end.
Well, at the same time telling you,
oh, we're looking for justice for these survivors.
Yeah, right.

In the filing, federal prosecutors did concede
that the U.S. Attorney's Office in South Florida
failed to treat Epstein survivors, most of whom,
were 13 to 16 years old when they were abused fairly.
But they said the law gives prosecutors
discretion in deciding how to dispose of a case.
Survivors have a right to confer with prosecutors,
but no rights beyond that.
So basically, let's just revictimize these people.
And let's make it so nobody wants to come forward ever again
because there's no justice.
Oh, so I come forward and then what happens?
These people are protected by their non-prosecution agreement.
Then they can hire their private investigators
to come bother me again, like they did
to all of the people involved.
Let me be very clear with you.
If I walk out of my home and anyone's rummaging through my trash,
we're gonna have a big problem.
If I'm sitting in the street and somebody's following me around
and you don't have a badge once again,
we're gonna have a big problem.
These people have gotten way too comfortable
thinking that they can bully people.
They have gotten way too comfortable.
Thinking that when they walk in the room,
they're the only ones with big dick energy.
But the reality is people have had enough.
And just normal average everyday folks like you
are the backbone of that.
And if they think that we're gonna stop demanding justice here
or for other victims of violent crimes,
they are sorely mistaken.
Pack also warn the judge overseeing the case, Kenneth Mara,
against taking action to overrule a cost as original decision,
not to prosecute Epstein.
So who is this young pot guy?
And why is he out here trying to defend Jeffrey Epstein?
Pretty interesting, right?
Wasn't that one of Bill Barr's guys?
Oh, it was, wasn't it?
Good old Darth Barr, one of the most unreliable,
untrustworthy people to ever plant their lazy,
do nothing asses in Washington, DC.
Courts are not to interfere with the free exercise
of the discretionary powers of the United States attorneys
in their control over criminal prosecutions, Poxet.
The decision whether to prosecute Epstein
lies solely within the executive branch
and any order today by this court
as to what the government must do in the future
would be wholly inappropriate.
So that just gives you a little bit of an idea
of how the Justice Department has felt
about Epstein and these survivors throughout time.
And it doesn't matter who the president is.
Every single one of these attorney generals
has been an impediment for justice going all the way back
to Clinton.
We're talking since Clinton, that's how many presidents,
Jeffrey Epstein has been active under
and how many attorney generals stepped up
and did something about it.
So I don't wanna hear anything about how, you know,
Bill Barr was appointed by Donald Trump
to get rid of human trafficking.
That's a bunch of bullshit.
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss,
over and over again, on repeat.
The Herald didn't know, however,
that Poxet, Epstein survivors would be given the chance
to meet with prosecutors in private
and if they desired to be heard out of public hearing.
He also said he would agree to give federal prosecutors
additional training on dealing with survivors
of crimes of this nature,
basically just, you know, shoving it under the rug.
And this is why I've been so critical
of the Department of Justice, of the FBI
and their handling of the Jeffrey Epstein criminal enterprise.
And for all the people out there
that wanna continuously play politics about this,
folks, I hate to tell you,
how much more evidence do you need to see
that it's both sides of the aisle here
that have, you know, chips in the game?
They don't want this to be out there.
They don't want the whole entire scope
of what Epstein was up to to be released to the public
because it's gonna be damning for all of these people.
As previously reported by Law and Crime,
the controversy surrounding Epstein's plea deal
dates back to 2007 when federal prosecutors in Florida
under the leadership of current US Secretary of Labor,
Alexandra Acosta, who was then the US Attorney
for the Southern District of Florida.
Acosta's prosecutors
quietly entered to a secretive non-prosecution agreement
with the billionaire, pedophile,
which ensured that Epstein and his go-conspirators
would not be prosecuted federally
in exchange for Epstein's guilty plea
to much less serious state prostitution charges.
Epstein served only 13 months in a county jail
and the prostitution charges were made up.
You see, folks, you can't have a prostitute
who's under age, right?
So how do you have prostitution charges?
At all.
It was child molestation, child grooming,
and child trafficking point blank period.
Additionally, Acosta's deal is insured
that Epstein's go-conspirators were all shielded
from prosecution under what is now viewed
as an extraordinarily unprecedented agreement
and was followed by the FBI's ongoing probe being shut down.
So the probe was shut down too, by the way.
Imagine you're one of these FBI agents
who's working on this
and some jerk off suit, bureaucrat walks in
and says, well, that's a rat, boys, shut it all down.
And again, that's why my criticism
is mainly directed at the bureaucrats of the FBI folks.
Please don't get that confused.
The rank and file agents that are out there doing their job,
I don't have any beef with them.
People are out there doing their job, I get it.
My problem is with the bureaucrats out here playing games.
They'll act like they don't give a damn
about what's going on here, but God forbid
you get on the wrong side of them politically
and they're gonna come after you full bore.
Jack Scarola, a former prosecutor representing
one of Epstein's survivors told the Harold
that a prosecutor's discretion in granting plea deals
while broad is far from unlimited.
He specifically noted that a defendant's victims
have the right to appeal a plea deal at sentencing.
This was not the case here as Epstein and Acosta's office
reached their plea deal without conferring
with any of Epstein's survivors.
And then you wonder why people again
are saying this deal was corrupt.
The whole thing is garbage, it's all gross.
Well, this is why.
And that's why we're going back
and going over some of these articles
and laying the groundwork again.
You know, that stupid ass article from NPR
talking about conspiracy theories
when they should be digging into what went on here,
really launched me into orbit
and sent your boy on basically a crusade
where we're going to go back and cover all of this again
for all of the new listeners,
all of the people who might not have heard it
the first time around and with a fresh eye.
Because if there's anything that's absurd here,
if there's anything that's disgusting,
it's a sweetheart deal.
Courts reject plea deals when they find them
to be unjustifiable and unreasonable,
especially if they are not told the full scope
of the agreement, Scarola said.
He also said separately that Congress did not contemplate
the extraordinary circumstances
of this conspiracy between the government
and a serial child molester.
I disagree with that, I'm sure they did,
and they don't care.
Point blank, how many times has the government
hopped into bed with some disgusting animal?
Scarola previously predicted the Epstein deal would be revoked.
Pock who took over Epstein's case in March
was joined in submitting Monday's brief
by US Attorney Jill E. Steinberg and Nathan P. Kitchens.
Once again, folks, you see what's going on here?
You see that this is absurd
and you see why people are fired up about it.
Yet we have no answers, we don't have any allies in Congress.
Do we have any allies in Congress or the Senate
that want justice here?
We sure do not.
Nobody calling for hearings, nobody calling for subpoenas,
nobody getting their phone record seized,
not a damn thing.
And the ban just plays on, so it's left to us
to continue to demand justice.
And the best way to do that, the best way
to get people to act when they're being inactive
is to embarrass them.
So that's what we'll continue to do.
We'll shine a spotlight on the piss-poor job done
by the Department of Justice until they get off,
they're doing nothing asses, and get some justice.
All right, folks, it's going to do it for this episode.
