I'm talking about 6 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: proof that girls as young as twelve years old were 7 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: flown from various countries to Epstein's Island, where they were 8 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: handed over like a pizza delivery to Jeffrey Epstein and 9 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: his wealthy clients. It's like a dirt sandwich in my mouth. 10 00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: Why has this not been uncovered? I mean, I see, Grace, 11 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: this is Clime Stories. I want to thank you for 12 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 1: being with us. Joining us tonight is a very special guest, 13 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: Barry Levine. Barry is the author of an incredible book 14 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: called Listen to This, The Spider Inside the Tangled Web 15 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: of Jeffrey Epstein and Elaine Maxwell. Wow. He is a 16 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: veteran investigative reporter and editor both in print and in TV. Barry, 17 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:38,960 Speaker 1: you devoted a huge chunk of your life to writing 18 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: this book about Epstein and Maxwell, and it is amazing. 19 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: I've got so many questions for you, but I want 20 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: to start with something we don't normally hear about. Regarding Epstein, 21 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: I've done a lot of research on this, but I'm 22 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: sure you have outdone me. I want to talk about 23 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: the US Virgin Islands. Why do I want to talk 24 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: about that because we've been focusing a lot, as has 25 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,399 Speaker 1: the public, on the Epstein files. Even though we were 26 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 1: promised they would be released, it hasn't happened. I smell 27 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: a rat now. I could go down that road. But 28 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 1: there's something I'd like you to educate everyone about, okay, 29 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: and that is the fact that Epstein wasn't just finding 30 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: teen girls in Florida that were usually underprivileged, single parent home, 31 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 1: no money, no hopes. He wasn't just preying on them. 32 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 1: At his height, he had about, give or take five 33 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: hundred and six hundred million dollars, yet he was trading 34 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: moving billions bizin brother billions of dollars. Now, everybody that 35 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: has a bank account knows you can't transfer more money 36 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: than you have. I want to know where the money 37 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: is coming from. And regarding the US Virgin Islands, this 38 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: sex child sex trafficking ring is a lot bigger than 39 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: a few girls down upon beach. We are talking about Europe. 40 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 1: We are talking about Eastern Europe. We are talking about children, 41 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: girls as young as twelve years old, being put on 42 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: planes and flown to the US Virgin Islands, delivered like 43 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: a pizza to Jeffrey Epstein, and then his French counterpart, 44 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: Jean le Brunelle, is dead behind bars. Wow, what a coincidink. 45 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: You have uncovered evidence that this is a world wide operation. 46 00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 2: Explain that's absolutely correct, Nancy, And I'm hoping that if 47 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:07,559 Speaker 2: we ever get into these Epstein files, three hundred gigabytes 48 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 2: of material that hundreds of thousands of pages, that we 49 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: will help uncover the enablers who assisted Jeffrey Epstein. Now names. 50 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: You have to remember that after Jeffrey Epstein received that 51 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 2: slap on the risk conviction down in Florida in two 52 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 2: thousand and eight. It's part of that non prosecution agreement 53 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 2: in which he only had to plead guilty to state 54 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 2: charges for solicitation of a minor and was given a 55 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 2: sweetheart deal of fourteen months behind bars, which most. 56 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 1: Of the time he was l I just want to 57 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: tell you something. You're actually making my stomach hurt. It's 58 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 1: actually hurting right now. If i'd have gotten a hold 59 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: of this guy, he would have been under the jail. 60 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: Under the jail, he actually had his limo pick him up, 61 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: his limo at the Palmies jail and drive him wherever 62 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 1: he wanted to go. That's not punishment. So who is 63 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,799 Speaker 1: covering for this guy? Well, at this point he's dead, 64 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: so he's not getting covered. Somebody else is covering for 65 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 1: somebody else. But I'm sorry I interrupted. Please go ahead, 66 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: absolutely right, Nancy. 67 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 2: It was sickening in terms of that slap on the 68 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 2: wrist in Florida. At the time, the FBI wanted to 69 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 2: put him away for seventy five years, and then he 70 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 2: got that sweetheart deal. And when he was out on 71 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: work release, he had a ankle bracelet and he was 72 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: having sex, as I reported in my book with Victims, 73 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 2: while he had the ankle monitor on his leg. 74 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 1: Anyway, Okay, hold on, I gotta just hold that image 75 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: in my mind. And I used to tellys, I know 76 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 1: it's disgusting. You may go home and vomit, but you 77 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: have to think about it. You have to think about this. Okay, 78 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: I'm going to make you think about it, Levine. Jeffrey 79 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: Epstein naked on his massage table with Gilaine Maxwell, not 80 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 1: just present, but actually girls with him. Let's think about that. 81 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: And when you say victims, little girls, and I believe 82 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: you can prove this. Little girls as young as twelve 83 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: being flown from Russia, Turkey, and beyond two the Virgin Islands, 84 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: delivered directly to Jeffrey Epstein. There are witnesses that see 85 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: the little girls getting off the plane and going to 86 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: his mansion, not just one, not just to a steady string. 87 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: There are thousands of victims, which leads me to who 88 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: and the hell are the other men that can are 89 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: wealthy enough to pay to fly to US Virgin Islands 90 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: and have with a twelve year old girl. By god, 91 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: I am not letting this go le Vain. 92 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 3: And you shouldn't. 93 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 2: And the American public and the victims, over a thousand 94 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 2: victims want answers. 95 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 3: And that's why we. 96 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 2: Need to open up these FBI files, because we need 97 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 2: to find the men who put these girls on plane. 98 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 2: They didn't get on planes themselves. There were men in 99 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 2: these remote locations in Russia, in Turkey, in tur Mecca, Stan, 100 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 2: Eastern European countries. Jeffrey Epstein was afraid of the Pombeach Police. 101 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 2: He was afraid of the NYPD after that slap on 102 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 2: the risk conviction, so he moved his sex trafficking too 103 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 2: his island in the Virgin Island, and there he used enablers. 104 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 2: And you mentioned one Jean Luke Brunell, who was a 105 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 2: French modeling agent who after Jeffrey Epstein's death, he himself 106 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 2: ended up behind bars in Paris on charges and mysteriously 107 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 2: also died behind bars in a similar fashion to Jeffrey Epstein. 108 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: And we still don't have answers to how John Luke 109 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 2: Brunell actually died, but we do know that he was 110 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 2: one of the men who was one of the enabors 111 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: who put these young girls on planes. Once they arrived 112 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 2: at the airport in the Virgin Islands, they were then 113 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 2: ferried by boat to Jeffrey Epstein's house on Little Saint James, 114 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 2: and we know that it was horrific. He made the 115 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 2: girls call him the godfather. He had a gun strap 116 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 2: to one of his bedposts. One victim was so terrified 117 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 2: that she actually attempted to swim off the island, only 118 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 2: to turn back when she realized the water currents and 119 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 2: so forth. This was a the horrors that Jeffrey Epstein 120 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 2: brought these girls to and only now are we beginning to. 121 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 3: Learn some of the circumstances. 122 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 2: I have to applaud Senator Ron White in the Oregon 123 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 2: who is looking into the forty seven hundred wire transfers 124 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 2: totally one billion dollars of money that Jeffrey Epstein used 125 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 2: to pay out these enablers and others. The money was 126 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 2: put through Russian banks. We need to get down to 127 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 2: the bottom of all this. We need him to continue 128 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 2: his investigation, and we absolutely need to dig into those 129 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 2: FBI files to see if there are men out there 130 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 2: that the US could work with other governments on in 131 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 2: terms of bringing some of these enablers to justice. 132 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,839 Speaker 1: You know, you said this was an island of horrors 133 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 1: in the one little girl tried to swim away. I mean, 134 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: of course, I'm projecting about my life, little girl. This's tiny, 135 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: tiny little thing, even now at seventeen, at age twelve, Okay, 136 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: when I was age twelve, I didn't even know what 137 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: a period was. When my front store neighbor told me, 138 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: I thought it was a joke. Twelve year old girls, 139 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: and now hold that thought in your mind. A twelve 140 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: year old little girl fourth fifth grade. Somebody puts her 141 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: on a plane with other little girls, a private plane. 142 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: She is flown to Epstein's Island, two miles from shore. 143 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: She's thrown to the mainland, and then she's ferried to 144 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: the island. I've learned from research. Why am I saying 145 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:52,079 Speaker 1: all this because there's a chain a private plane and 146 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: let's just pretend Russia or one of the stands. Somebody 147 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: has a log of the pop private plane. That plane 148 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: brings little girls to the mainland USVII. Then they get 149 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: off the plane. Somebody sees them getting off the plane, 150 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: and there are witnesses, you know, there are witnesses about 151 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: the little girls filing off the plane. Then they get 152 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: onto a ferry. Why do I care? Because that gives 153 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: me other witnesses. The captain, the crew that fairy the 154 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: little girls and hand them over to Epstein. Somebody meets 155 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: them at the ferry and brings them in. Now twelve 156 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: years old, what seventy pounds, sixty pounds maybe? Virginia's You're 157 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: Freight describes being taken into the massage room where she 158 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: is put on top of Epstein and heed her and 159 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: then they give her two hundred dollars and send her 160 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: on our way. These girls twelve years old, many if 161 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: not all of them Virgin not knowing what was happening 162 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: to them until they are and we are going to 163 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: stand by and do nothing. I'm not. I don't care 164 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: what kind of hell rains down on me. This is 165 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: so wrong and there are thousands of little girl victims, 166 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: little girls. I don't understand it. And another thing, Levine 167 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,439 Speaker 1: all this business. At one point Bondie said, I've got 168 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: a client list right here on my desk. Now she's 169 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: saying there is no client list. Okay, you know what. 170 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: There may not be a client list per se, but 171 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: the clients will be discernible through investigation. Who was on 172 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 1: those flights, who came to the home. There are thousands 173 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: of hours of video, who's in the who was he 174 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: making the transfers to and from the money transfers. That's 175 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: your client list. You just have to look for it. 176 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, there's so much material in those FBI files. 177 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 2: There's US marshal reports of flight logs specifically to the 178 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 2: Virgin Islands. There's so much that investigators can dig into. 179 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 2: And I don't understand why it's taken us this long 180 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 2: to get to this point of saying, Hey, what the 181 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 2: hell happened there? And why aren't we bringing people to justice? 182 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 2: And I can't stand the fact that they're making this 183 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 2: into politics. Just release the files, let investigators go through them, 184 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 2: and bring together an international consortium of law enforcement to 185 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 2: apprehend these guys because they're out there. 186 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:56,319 Speaker 1: I had to guess the other night, Barry that represented 187 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: nine and it's growing of the little victims. And they 188 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 1: describe corporate clients, rich guys that want to have sex 189 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: with a twelve year old virgin, an American twelve year 190 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,679 Speaker 1: old virgin. Why do I care if it's an American because 191 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: it's on our soil and we have jurisdiction. I can't 192 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: control what's happening in Russia and Turkey and the stands, 193 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: but we can't control what's happening in the US. There 194 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: are men, and I have prosecuted many of them, and 195 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: it's outside the realm of a lot of people's understanding, 196 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: and I'm glad that it is. Why should they have 197 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: to know this? There are millions of men that would 198 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: pay thousands of dollars to a twelve year old. Do 199 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: I like it? No? Is it real, Yes, who are 200 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: these people and why have they not been brought to justice. 201 00:14:55,240 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: So this lawyer that I interviewed knows who many of 202 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: the clients aka John's aka child rapists are, but he's 203 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: bound to attorney client privilege and he can't reveal what 204 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: his victims have said. It's real. This is not some 205 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 1: wacky conspiracy theory. This is real. Explain to me how 206 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: you know it's real. 207 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 2: It is real, and you know I've been through thousands 208 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 2: of documents. I've been through some confidential court files. There 209 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 2: are men, in fact, Alan Durschwitz who helped I should say, 210 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein get that sweetheart deal as his lead attorney 211 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 2: back in two thousand and eight. He's come out and 212 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 2: said he's aware of the list of men. But the 213 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: fact of the matter is none of these individuals are 214 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 2: willing to put these names out. 215 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 3: And it's going to. 216 00:15:56,280 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 2: Take, as I said, some type of international law enforcement 217 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 2: group to pull this together to begin going after the men, 218 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 2: not only the men who are in the United States, 219 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 2: but the international fixtures, but also individuals who are in 220 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 2: his circle who. 221 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 3: He invited to that island. 222 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 2: We need to get a list or a real wist, 223 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 2: not just some of the redactive flight walls. We need 224 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 2: to get the real lists that's in those documents. And 225 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that every individual who is brought to 226 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 2: that island took part in any criminality. A huge majority 227 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 2: of them probably did not. But there are people that 228 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 2: need to be investigated and. 229 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: Put him up. We need to go. Yeah, I got 230 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: it bound to pate with you. If an American wanted 231 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: to mate with Epstein for any legitimate reason, why not 232 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: just mate, you know, at Tiles Bagels in New York. 233 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: All right? Why do you have to to his secret 234 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: island off the US Virgin Islands, which I would like 235 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: to point out is under US sovereignty. Correct, we have 236 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: jurisdiction there, but we're doing nothing about it. First, we 237 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,120 Speaker 1: got to deal with what's happening right here on our 238 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: home soil. Then we can deal with them. But you 239 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: have Doug and Doug and Doug, and you have proof 240 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: that this happened. What is your strongest evidence, Barry. 241 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 2: The evidence, as I said, Nancy, is in confidential files. 242 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 2: It is with women who have going through FBI interviews, 243 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 2: is for women who have done depositions. The problem with 244 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 2: a lot of this is that Jeffrey Epstein initially did 245 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 2: a lot of deals to make a lot of this 246 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 2: stuff go away with these women. He paid millions of 247 00:17:55,840 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 2: dollars and there were settlements. A lot of that material 248 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 2: is under court seal, and someone has to be able 249 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 2: to bring forward those documents, review. 250 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 3: And come up with a legal way of. 251 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 2: Going after those men, because unless we can get the enablers, 252 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 2: unless we can get the men who took part in 253 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:24,400 Speaker 2: the sext traffick game, we're never going to get any 254 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 2: justice for his victims. 255 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 3: And that's something that we have married. 256 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if you can see the screen or not, 257 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 1: but I want you to look at Epstein. Have you 258 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: ever wanted to attack someone? Because when I look at 259 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: that smug smile, I literally want to just scratch his 260 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 1: lips off his face. Knowing what I know, I know 261 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: this happened, and I know Gilaine Maxwell helped him, and 262 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,640 Speaker 1: I know that there are rich guys that will pay 263 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: thousands of dollars to him and Elaine Maxwell to have 264 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 1: sex with a twelve year old girl. I know this happened, 265 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: and it's not just me spinning it out right here. 266 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: There have been Oh I believe my last talent was 267 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 1: around two hundred million dollars settlement with various banks like 268 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: Deutsche Bank, for one. But there are many banks with 269 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: whom Epstein did business, and that money is dirty money 270 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: from sex trafficking. These victims sued and they got millions 271 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 1: of dollars from the banks. You think, let me see, 272 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 1: Barry Levine, Barry Levine, you know how banks are. They 273 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 1: will squeeze a penny out of you. If you write 274 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: a check, they'll get a penny, all right. They'll think 275 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: of any way. You go to an atm oh get 276 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 1: ready to shell out twenty five dollars for withdrawing money. 277 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: They will think of any way to get one penny 278 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: from you. Yet they have settled over two hundred million 279 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: dollars with Epstein victims. Why why did these banks settle? 280 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 2: Because for years this went on and they looked the 281 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 2: other way. And it was only recently after his death 282 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:24,239 Speaker 2: that the victims and the victims lawyers began piecing this 283 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 2: together and realized that the root of all this is 284 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 2: the money. The famous saying from all the President's men, 285 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 2: the warrigate story follow the money. And I and as 286 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 2: I said, Senator Whyden, is one individual saint who is 287 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 2: actually going after some of these men and going down 288 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 2: that money trail. And why we're going down the money 289 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 2: trail now, I don't understand. This should have happened back 290 00:20:55,440 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 2: at the time of Jeffrey Epstein's arrest, at the time 291 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 2: of his death. Why we're now, all these years later 292 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,919 Speaker 2: finally getting to this. I just don't understand. Because it 293 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 2: was it was all there, It was all there, And 294 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 2: now I'm afraid with the passage of time that a 295 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 2: lot of these men are going to get away. 296 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: Crime stories with Nancy Grace. But my question, if you 297 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: could boil it down to a nutshell, why did these 298 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: big banks fork out over two hundred million dollars settlement 299 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:49,159 Speaker 1: to the girl victims? What did the banks do wrong? 300 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 3: Banks? 301 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 2: There were individuals with the bank, with the banks who 302 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 2: took Jeffrey Epstein's money and. 303 00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 3: Allegedly looked the other way. 304 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 2: And in terms of all these funny transactions, the wire transfers, 305 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 2: the billions of dollars that went through these banks. Not 306 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 2: only he had one hundred and fifty six bank accounts, 307 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein, according to his estate so executives of his 308 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,120 Speaker 2: estate one hundred and fifty so money was flying all 309 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 2: over the place. 310 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: But there's got to be more barry. It's not just 311 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 1: as somebody to look the other way. When Epstein was 312 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: doing questionable bank maneuvers. They didn't pay the settlement to 313 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: just anybody. They pay the settlement to sex trafficking girl victims. 314 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: Why what's the nexus the banks paid the little girls? 315 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 2: Why because they didn't want bank officials being prosecuted. That's 316 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 2: the way I look at it, because if the Feds 317 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 2: really took a hard look, it's very possible that they 318 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 2: could have brought up some individuals on charges. And the 319 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 2: fact is the banks were willing to Are you trying. 320 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: To say in a very very very roundabout way that 321 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: some of the banking officials knew about the child sex trafficking, 322 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: that they should have known, or that this money they 323 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: were making possible for Epstein was funded by international child 324 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: sex trafficking. Isn't that true? 325 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 2: That is true, Nancy, And in fact, there are some 326 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 2: individuals who have been accused of wrongdoing. But at the 327 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 2: end of the day, there's been settlements because of the 328 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 2: banks in terms of culpability, and no one has ever 329 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 2: been charged related to the banks. Now, there have been 330 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 2: individuals who have lost their jobs related to these banks. 331 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 3: Oh boo hooo, and prosecuted. 332 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 1: They made money. The banks made money off these girls 333 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: and this sex trafficking ring. And can't emphasize it enough. 334 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 1: I typically do not believe in conspiracies because I don't 335 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: think people are able to keep their yap shut long 336 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 1: enough to protect a conspiracy. What do I mean by 337 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:19,160 Speaker 1: that example? Oj was framed? No, he wasn't. Because somebody 338 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 1: on the LAPD would make a three million dollar advance 339 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: for telling the conspiracy in a big, fat, juicy book 340 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: that will be a major motion picture. They'll give up 341 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 1: their badges, they don't care, they'll lose their retirement for 342 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,719 Speaker 1: three mili. That never happened. Why because there was no conspiracy. 343 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: I don't believe in conspiracies. This I believe in. This 344 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: was a multi jurisdictional child sex trafficking ring to the 345 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:54,879 Speaker 1: tune of billions of dollars, as proven by Epstein's banking accounts. 346 00:24:55,119 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: I am talking about Russia, Turkey, the stands, France where 347 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 1: Jean lou Brunnell was sending little girls to Epstein. And 348 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:16,199 Speaker 1: you're right, Levine, Florida was onto him. New York was 349 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: onto him. Hence US Virgin Islands, where nobody would know 350 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: and nobody would say a damn thing. 351 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:30,120 Speaker 2: It's the whole thing is tragic. After Jeffrey Epstein's death, 352 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 2: there was one woman in the US Virgin Islands who 353 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 2: was the Attorney General at the time, Denise George, who 354 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 2: took this thing on. While the government wanted to look 355 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 2: the other way, she did the heavy lifting. She began 356 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 2: sending out subpoenas she wanted to investigate his company in 357 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 2: the Virgin Islands. 358 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 1: Called so don't tell me she's dead. 359 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 3: He is not dead. 360 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 2: But she was fired from her job because she was 361 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 2: upsetting higher ups in the government because they wanted to 362 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 2: make all this go away. And she went after the estate. 363 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:17,479 Speaker 2: She named the Southern Trust as nothing more than a 364 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 2: criminal enterprise, affront for his sex trafficking, and on her 365 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 2: own without the help of the Southern District in New 366 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 2: York or other prosecutors. From her little island office, she 367 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 2: was subpoenaing billionaire friends of Jeffrey Epstein, trying to get 368 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 2: to the bottom. 369 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 3: Of all this. 370 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 2: And when she was making so much noise that the 371 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 2: government above her said, you know what, this is what 372 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 2: we don't want to take. 373 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 3: This investigation on on our own. You've done enough. 374 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 2: After that, they basically said, we're going to wash your 375 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 2: hands of this. And while when she wanted to do that, 376 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:04,360 Speaker 2: this strong willed woman in ey Storge was fired from 377 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 2: her job, which to me is absolutely horrible because if 378 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 2: there's any good people in this story, she is at 379 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 2: the top of that list because she tried. And now 380 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 2: with the work that she did, it's now in the 381 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 2: hands of the wallmakers and law enforcement in the US 382 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 2: to pick up the pieces of her investigation and go 383 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 2: after these men. 384 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: You know, we keep having people testifying about this. I 385 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: would love to hear her testify under oath about what 386 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: she learned and what she investigated and who she subpoened 387 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: and then got fired, thrown out on the street because 388 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 1: she was exposing Epstein and his wealthy clients. I mean, 389 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: forty seven hundred wire transfers to the tune of billion 390 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 1: with the me is in brother of dollars that he 391 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 1: didn't have follow the money. And you know what, at 392 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: this moment, off the top of my head, I don't 393 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,439 Speaker 1: know if Widen is a Republican or a Democrat, and 394 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: I don't care what he is. I just hope Denise, 395 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 1: George and Widen don't end up dead like so many 396 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: other people connected to this case. I saw one estimates 397 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: up in the twenties people connected to this case now dead. 398 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,880 Speaker 1: That's quite the spate of suicides. But before I get 399 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: to Jean Luke Burnell or Jenny Giuffrey, many of Epstein's 400 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: then child victims. Now they suddenly all commit suicide as 401 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 1: this thing is heating up. Okay, I want to talk 402 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: about this is like dirt in my mouth, Gilaine Maxwell, 403 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: you know what everybody always talks about. Oh, she's so glamorous, 404 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: she's so sophisticated, she's so educated, boring the silver spoon 405 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: in her mouth. Do not care. She looks like the 406 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: devil to me, because not just one, not just too many, 407 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: many of these little girl victims say she was the spider. 408 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: She lured them into the web. She didn't just hand 409 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 1: them over to Epstein, a little twelve year old girl 410 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: to get She took part in the market. Is that 411 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: so hard for people to believe? It's real? They all 412 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,959 Speaker 1: said it. Not just one girl, not just two, but 413 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 1: many little girls said she them. She's evil. 414 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, the the only way she justified this she. 415 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 3: Told friends, and I quoted them in my book. 416 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 2: She said to me, these girls are nothing but trash. 417 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: He basically, okay, stop stop, stop, put him up, put 418 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: him up. I have that written in my notes, and 419 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: I didn't say it because it's very hurtful. You know. 420 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: I think about the girls twelve, and I remember coming home, 421 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: I'll latch key kid on a red dirt road in 422 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: the middle of nowhere. Mom and dad both at work. 423 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: These girls came home, nobody was there until they befriended 424 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 1: Gilaine Maxwell, and she said, and you quote, these girls 425 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: are nothing but trash. 426 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 2: And we have to we have to see that down 427 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 2: because there are people who want to see her sentence lessened. 428 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 2: There are people around her who want to see her 429 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 2: pardoned by the president. We have to continue to remind 430 00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 2: the public what heard you was of these women. For 431 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 2: these girls at the. 432 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: Times, girls some of them hadn't even had a period. 433 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 4: For Pete's sake, but we have to keep on pounding 434 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 4: this point because she was She brought these girls to Epstein, not. 435 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 2: Only so he content, but she also took part in 436 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 2: the sexual abuse. And we have to keep her behind bars. 437 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 2: She's an animal, and she deserved the sentence for brave 438 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 2: women testified against her at her trial. One of them 439 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 2: died of an accidental drug overdose. Because these women still 440 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 2: suffering to this day. They still can't many of them 441 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 2: still can't move beyond their childhood's being taken by these 442 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 2: two the predatory Bonnie and Clyde as I called him 443 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 2: in my book, But even calling them a Bonnie and Clyde, 444 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 2: it is not nice enough in terms of what they did. 445 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 2: They were both sexual predators. They were both animals. And 446 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 2: she needs not that receives a being a minimum security 447 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 2: camp where she is now in Texas. She should be 448 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 2: in an absolute maximum security facility. It's horrible in terms 449 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 2: of how she is manipulating individuals in the government right 450 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 2: now to get what she wants. 451 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 3: And that's wrong. 452 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: Crime stories with Nancy Gray find everyone because it's getting 453 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,959 Speaker 1: lost in the sauce that the reason Gilene Maxwell is 454 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 1: convicted right now and sentenced to twenty years is because 455 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: four then little girls testified against her. Scrawny bony rear 456 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 1: end about them and I know you don't want to 457 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 1: think about it, but you have to judge the facts, 458 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: even if they taste bad. Going down, she was convicted 459 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 1: from little girls herself. What does she do hold them 460 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:34,719 Speaker 1: down while he ran them digitally them? I don't know 461 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 1: what she did, but hold that in your mind when 462 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: you look at her picture. Hold that in your mind 463 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: when you try to figure out if Elaine Max WILLI 464 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 1: ever tell the truth? There's only one way she may 465 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: tell part of the truth, and that's to save her 466 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: own skin. What can she offer us? Why do I 467 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: even want her? That's doing a deal with the devil 468 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: of aid. 469 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 2: It is and the government has already accused her of perjury. 470 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 3: So anything she says, anything that comes. 471 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 2: Out of her mouth, has to be collaborated by fact, 472 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:17,720 Speaker 2: has to be coroborated by documents, has to be cooberated 473 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 2: by other victims. We can't take anything that she said 474 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:28,800 Speaker 2: that's truthful because she has lied from the very very beginning. 475 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 2: And it is appalling that that officials even went out 476 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 2: of their way to go down to Florida to interview her. Okay, 477 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 2: she was being treated like she was a special v 478 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 2: I p to me that was so wrong. But listen, 479 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 2: if she if she. 480 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: Of child abuse. He's got there were ten thousand tapes. 481 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 1: Every place he had was blanketed in video cams. In fact, 482 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: do you point this out? Levan And a lot of 483 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: people didn't know this that he actually had local police 484 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: Billie come to his place in Florida to set up 485 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 1: the video cams to catch people stealing from him. In 486 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:32,399 Speaker 1: other words, video John's rich. John's having twelve year old 487 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 1: little girls, That's why. And they went along with it 488 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:38,240 Speaker 1: and set up the video cams in his place. 489 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's disturbing in terms of how a police department 490 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 2: in Palm Beach. Jeffrey Epstein gave money in terms of 491 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 2: charities to the police. He called on them and said, Hey, 492 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,919 Speaker 2: I've got employees stealing from me. Would you come over 493 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 2: here and help me set up secret surveillance cameras and 494 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 2: my home. They went over there and they did that, 495 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 2: and he ended up using those cameras to record not 496 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 2: only his own criminality but also that of other individuals. 497 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 2: And we still don't know where all these tapes are. 498 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 2: He had homes in Palm Beach, he had his townhouse 499 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 2: in New York, he had his ranch, the Zoro Ranch 500 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 2: in New Mexico. He had of course the island in 501 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,440 Speaker 2: the Virgin Islands, and then he had the apartment in Paris. 502 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 2: He had each and every one of his homes wired 503 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 2: for secret surveillance. So there's thousands and thousands and thousands 504 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 2: of capes and the government is sitting on some material. 505 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 2: But I also believe that there's other tapes that are 506 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,720 Speaker 2: out there. I tell a story of my book about 507 00:36:53,719 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 2: how incense one detective from Palm Beach was as after 508 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 2: Epstein received that slap on the wrist, because they had 509 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 2: compiled forty victims initially in their investigation, and this detective 510 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 2: allegedly turned over evidence to an individual who now is 511 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:24,399 Speaker 2: in Russia and apparently has some of that material. So 512 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 2: who has that material? Do the Russians have that material? 513 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 2: The authorities over there have that material? Is it blackmail material? 514 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 3: We don't know. 515 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 2: There is so much that still has to be done 516 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 2: related to this case. 517 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 1: Barry, why are we why have we been lied to? 518 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,240 Speaker 1: Why are we not getting the files? 519 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 2: You know, we were promised that this was going to 520 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 2: be the most transparent presidency in history. I'm going to 521 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 2: get the JFK files and Martin Luther King files. President 522 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 2: Trump was asked during the campaign would he release the 523 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein files. He said he would. He put him 524 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 2: in the hands of Pam Bondi, who promised that she 525 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 2: was going to release the files. And then over fourth 526 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 2: of July week and we were stonewalled. We received a 527 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 2: two page memo that basically said, Jeffrey Epstein died behind bars, 528 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 2: there was nothing nefarious about his death, there was no 529 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 2: client lists, there's no blackmail, and everybody basically go home. 530 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 2: It reminded me of the scene and Wizard of Oz 531 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 2: where Dorothy they killed the witch and she takes the 532 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 2: broom and the wizards basically says thank you, but you 533 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,839 Speaker 2: can all go home. Now, you can all leave. I'm 534 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:57,439 Speaker 2: gonna I'm not gonna help you. Why are we being 535 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 2: stonewalled on the files? This we don't know. Are there 536 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 2: names of individuals that they're trying to protect what's in 537 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,879 Speaker 2: the files that's so sensitive and so secret that they 538 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 2: can't share that material with the American public and with 539 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 2: his victims, And of course there should be redactions of 540 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:24,280 Speaker 2: victims and information about the victims, and there's information about 541 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 2: some third parties that maybe weren't involved with us. You 542 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,840 Speaker 2: have to remember that Jeffrey Epstein lived in two worlds. 543 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 2: He lived in his criminality and then he also lived 544 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 2: in this world of celebrities, scientists, barbered. 545 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 3: School officials. 546 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:48,800 Speaker 2: Would he would hold symposiums and seminars and fly important 547 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 2: people down to his island to talk about scientific things 548 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:57,759 Speaker 2: that he found fascinating. So he was blurring the. 549 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: Whatever, and then they got twelve year old. Okay, so there. 550 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 1: I got to tell you something, Barry. I love our 551 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: country and I love deeply our justice system. It was 552 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 1: my savior after my fiance was murdered, and I am 553 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:25,760 Speaker 1: loyal to our country regardless of who's in the White House. 554 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 1: But I have to tell you I feel sick over 555 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: this because our government, our own government that we elected, 556 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: is hiding this evidence. And I think it precedes this administration. 557 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: It was hidden before this. It goes all the way 558 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:50,080 Speaker 1: back that I know of, to a cover up in 559 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:54,879 Speaker 1: Palm Beach long before. In this White House administration, our 560 00:40:55,200 --> 00:41:01,359 Speaker 1: government is covering up for the wealthy and privilege, and 561 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:07,360 Speaker 1: the little girls are being treated like trash, just like 562 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 1: Elaine Maxwell called them. 563 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 2: Yeah. 564 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: I'm embarrassed and sickened, but not disabled. What can we do, 565 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 1: if anything, to get justice, Barry? 566 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 2: Well, right now, we have to hope that these lawmakers 567 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:35,280 Speaker 2: who are bringing in individuals, and apparently they've been promised 568 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:38,399 Speaker 2: that the Justice Department is going to begin turning over 569 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:45,240 Speaker 2: the files. It's a small step, but at least someone 570 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 2: is going to get their hands on some of this material. 571 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:53,240 Speaker 2: And they're promising that eventually the American public will see 572 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 2: this and see the transcripts of the depositions that they're 573 00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:04,239 Speaker 2: that they're taking small step, but it's something. But what's 574 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 2: infuriating is that with one executive order or a signature, 575 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 2: we could have the public could have all of these 576 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 2: documents for the proper investigators to go through and determine 577 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,920 Speaker 2: are there individuals that need to be brought to justice. 578 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 2: And until that happens, none of us can ever rest. 579 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 2: We have to keep up pressure on the government, our 580 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 2: government to do the right thing. 581 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:39,040 Speaker 1: Nobody's going to do the right thing until they're threatened financially, 582 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,319 Speaker 1: until they think they're going to lose their job, they're 583 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: going to get sued. That's the only time, unless they're 584 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: threatened with exposure, then they might come clean when it 585 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 1: comes right down to the wire. I've learned so much 586 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:59,839 Speaker 1: from your essay in the New York Times and from 587 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:04,720 Speaker 1: your book The Spider Inside The Tangled web of Jeffrey 588 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 1: Epstein and Gilain Maxwell Barry. 589 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you, Nancy. 590 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 1: We remember an American hero Officer, Brian Hawkins, Lake CITYPD, Georgia, 591 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: killed in the line of duty after serving twenty two 592 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:28,759 Speaker 1: years in LA, leaving behind his grieving wife, Renee. American 593 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:34,319 Speaker 1: hero Officer Brian Hawkins. Nancy Gray signing off, I'll see 594 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:40,800 Speaker 1: you tomorrow night, and until then, good night friend,
