The secrecy surrounding portions of the jury-selection process in the Ghislaine Maxwell trial became a point of controversy even before opening statements began. Maxwell’s legal team pushed aggressively to keep the written juror questionnaires and parts of the voir-dire process sealed from public view, arguing that the overwhelming media coverage and intense global interest could intimidate potential jurors and prevent them from answering truthfully. They claimed that only a private process could protect jurors from harassment and ensure fairness, effectively requesting an unprecedented level of confidentiality for a trial that was already under scrutiny for years of secrecy surrounding Jeffrey Epstein’s conduct and the government’s handling of the case.
This request was met with resistance from press organizations and transparency advocates, who argued that sealing juror questionnaires would undermine public trust in the judicial process and contradict the longstanding legal principle that jury selection should be open to public observation. The judge ultimately rejected the bid for an entirely closed process, but aspects of the selection — including the identities of jurors and the contents of certain responses — remained shielded. That decision fueled accusations that secrecy was being selectively deployed, especially after it emerged post-trial that a sitting juror had failed to disclose a history of sexual abuse on his questionnaire. The dispute highlighted the tension between protecting juror privacy and the public’s demand for full transparency in a case already marred by distrust and decades of hidden information.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Everyone, and welcome back to the program. Yo, let's just
jump right in, shall we. We are thirteen days away
from Galaine Maxwell's trial, and today the jury selection period begins. Now,
the original pool was over six hundred jurors and now
they have h whittled it down to two hundred jurors
(00:22):
and Judge Nathan expects to go through fifty of them
per day for the next few days until we get
it sessed out. And guess what, folks, I am fired up.
I'm ready to go, and I cannot wait for this
trial to get underway. I have spent legitimately three years
(00:42):
of my life, every single day covering this case and
trying to shine a little bit of a spotlight on
the incredible injustice that occurred here. And of course, the
people who suffered the most were those directly involved, those
who were abuse used by Jeffrey Epstein and his cohorts.
(01:04):
But if you think for a minute society as a
whole wasn't abused here, you're wrong. All of us were
taken for a ride here by the authorities, by the
justice system, and by those who are supposed to be
there to protect the most vulnerable. So this just wasn't
(01:26):
a you know, a black mark against the government because
of their behavior by protecting Epstein and making sure no
justice was administered here. But they screwed the rest of
us as well. And I know so many people who
have contacted me and said this case especially has shattered
(01:47):
their view of what the Justice Department is, of what
the system in place is supposed to be, and so
many people are reevaluating their core beliefs. And I'll tell
you what, that's part of leveling up. It's okay, right,
you don't have to be the same person you were yesterday.
And anyone who doesn't understand that, anyone who tries to
(02:08):
pigeonhole you, anyone who tries to keep you in a box,
is somebody that you probably don't need in your life.
So it's okay to, you know, level up and have
different feelings today than you did yesterday. And that's all
part of it. Right. As a case like this goes
(02:30):
and it evolves, you learn things that will shake you
to your core and rock some of your core beliefs.
I know it did for me. I came into this
case with one point of view, and I'm leaving with
a completely separate one. And when you are willing to
be moved from your biases and you're willing to follow
(02:52):
the evidence even if it goes against what you believe,
then you are certainly on your way to leveling up.
And it was a long process for me as well,
letting go of old biases, trying to rewire my brain
to think correctly, making it a point to leave echo
chambers and get other opinions, because at the end of
(03:15):
the day, that's how we really grow right being uncomfortable.
So this case has shook people to their core, and
it's really had a lot of people reevaluating their opinion
of the legacy media or the authorities. And it's definitely
(03:38):
a good thing in my opinion that people are looking
at the authorities with a more stringent eye. You know, again,
we can't just sit back and expect the authorities just
to do the right thing all the time. It's up
to us to keep their feet to the fire. Right.
They work for us, and we forget about that a
lot of the time, and these guys run off and
(03:59):
do whatever the hell they want to do and protect
their friends and not administer justice the way they're supposed to.
But finally, starting today, we get into the portion of
this case where at least some justice is at the
end of this tunnel. So with that said, let's jump
(04:23):
into our article today from ABC News and let's see
what James Hill has to say about the juror situation.
Headline Gallane Maxwell trial Federal judge to question more than
two hundred potential jurors. Author of this article, Like I said,
(04:43):
James Hill, a pool of prospective jurors for the criminal
trial of Galline Maxwell will be questioned by a federal
judge on Tuesday morning in Manhattan, two weeks before Maxwell's
criminal trial is set to begin. So again, being that
it's New York, you know that there is a wide
(05:04):
variety of people who are part of this jurpool, who
are going to be questioned and who are potentially going
to populate the jurors bench. Now. Originally, Glenn Maxwell's team
complained when the grand jury wasn't paneled up in Westchester County.
She complained that it was not varied enough. There weren't
(05:27):
enough different groups of people for the grand jury to
choose from, et cetera, et cetera. So that should certainly
not be a problem this time around, considering this is
going to be in Manhattan, and there really is no
argument there. Right, there are so many people from different
(05:50):
walks of life in Manhattan and the surrounding boroughs that
you could definitely find a jur pool that is acceptable
to both parties. Now, with that said, you know that
Maxwell's lawyers are going to be going hard in the
paint today and trying to dismiss all potential jurors who
might have some kind of you know, ill opinion of
(06:14):
people like Maxwell. And that's all part of it, right,
that's how this stuff works. But eventually they're gonna needle
this down and they're gonna get it down to the
twelve jurors who are going to sit on the panel.
And today begins all of that. And it's very interesting
how all of it takes place, and the fact that
it's open to the public is even more interesting. If
(06:36):
you ask me, I'm fascinated by the way that these
things happen, you know, behind the scenes. It is a
very interesting situation to watch unfold. Maxwell, a one time companion,
co conspirator, general all around scusbag, fellow child abuser, and
(06:56):
bipedal serpent of deceased sex offender pedophile Jeffrey Epstein is
facing a six count federal indictment alleging she conspired with
Epstein and aided his serial sexual abuse of minor girls
between nineteen ninety four and two thousand and four. She
is pleaded not guilty to all the charges. Well, we
(07:18):
expected that, right, You didn't expect her to say, ah, yeah,
I'm guilty. I did it. You guys, just you know,
come and put me in prison for the rest of
my life. People like this, they never admit that they're wrong.
People like Elaine Maxwell have spent their whole entire life
with people pampering them, telling them that they can do
no wrong, that they're the best people in society, and
(07:40):
the rest of us are worthless. That's how these people
grow up. And that's not even hyperbole. When you're in
a room with people like this, they look at you
as less. Then you don't have the dough, you don't
have the reach, you don't have the influence, so therefore
you are less than Meanwhile, we all look at these
(08:01):
people and we're disgusted. At this point, I honestly don't
know anyone from any political side that isn't disgusted with
the ultra rich. And when I say the ultra rich, folks,
I'm not talking about people who make a few million bucks,
ten million bucks, even twenty million bucks, even you ain't
ultrarich rich. I'm talking about generational wealth. The small handful
(08:24):
of people that are truly making waves, that are truly
setting the agenda for the world. Those are the people
that I'm talking about when I say mega rich and
Glen Maxwell most certainly was in that stratosphere, rubbing shoulders
with those people, hanging out with world leaders. These are
(08:45):
people that had an exceptional amount of influence over some
very very powerful people folks. Over the last two weeks,
the initial jerry pool of about six hundred people was
called to two hunds thirty one after each candidate for
the panel filled out a twenty five page written questionnaire
(09:06):
designed to screen for potential potential biases and conflicts of interest.
US District Judge Alison Nathan the Southern District of New York,
who is overseeing Maxwell's trial, plans to further query each
potential juror individually an open court on such topics as
their exposure to media reporting about this case, their knowledge
(09:27):
and opinions of both Maxwell and Epstein and their ability
to serve on a lengthy trial that will likely continue
into January. And again, the trial length is insane to me.
Originally we were looking at like four weeks, remember when
I was supposed to start on July twelfth. So my
(09:47):
plan was to go to New York in the middle
of the summer and stay there for the whole trials
five weeks, four weeks, whatever it was going to be.
But with this trial now moved into November, in the
middle of the holidays, and and the fact that i
haven't been able to really spend the holidays with my
family the last couple of years because of the pandemic,
and it's just not feasible for me to go in
(10:10):
for the duration. So my plan is to go in
the first week of January and then stay for the
whole trial, and doing that, I'll be able to get
there for the opening of the situation between Virginia and
Prince Andrew as well. So kind of a kill two
birds with one stone type of situation. But I'm very
(10:33):
excited to get down there, and I'm going to be
meeting up with several people who I've talked with throughout
this whole entire ordeal, some people I've worked with throughout
this whole entire ordeal, and also some people who are
just following the case. So if you're going to be
in New York around this time and you want to
link up down around the courthouse, go grab a dirty
(10:55):
water dog like we call him in New York, or
a pretzel, or just hang out and shoot the shit.
Make sure you let me know. I'm gonna be down
there the whole time, hanging out hopefully inside that courtroom,
if not right outside on the steps, live streaming there.
So either way, your boys there for it. Maxwell's lawyers
(11:16):
had previously argued for the court to conduct the questioning
of potential jurors in a confidential setting, outside the view
of the public and the press. They contended that the
extraordinary measures were necessary to effectively screen for exposure to
a tsunami of publicity about the high profile sex trafficking case. Look,
(11:37):
that's all ridiculous to me. Whenever there's a high profile case,
people are gonna be interested in it. That's just the
way it goes. And it's not like Maxwell's getting any
more interest than anybody else got. Look at the wave
of interest for Weinstein, the wave of interest for R. Kelly,
and I'll contend that Weinstein and R. Kelly up till
this point have gotten even more exposure than Maxwell. When
(12:01):
you look at Maxwell and frame it next to everybody
else who went down for these crimes, Maxwell has gotten
less exposure. And again this is just my guess here,
but the reason is is because Maxwell is so connected
to so many powerful people, and those powerful people reach
out to other powerful people. And will you understand why
(12:23):
there's not this tsunami of publicity that they're talking about
Now we're coming to the trial that all might change.
There's going to be an uptick. For sure, there's going
to be Glenn Maxwell's name trending like it was yesterday
on Twitter, and there's going to be an influx of
interest in this case and there's zero doubt about it.
(12:45):
So with that, there's also going to be an increase
in the grifters as well, So be very careful. This
case amplifies the likelihood that jurors will be more apprehensive
and constrained to respond openly and honestly in open court
within earshot of other jurors, members of the public, and
the media. Maxwell's attorney Bobby C. Sternham wrote in a
(13:06):
court filing last month. So what she's saying is because
of the nature of this case and how you know,
how fragile it is, because it has to do with
children and stuff like that, that they fear that the
jurors or potential jurors wouldn't be honest because other jurors
might overhear them, which is absolutely ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. So
(13:30):
I'm glad that Judge Nathan told them to kick rocks here.
I mean, the ridiculousness of Maxwell's attempts to try and
get out of this trial throughout this whole thing have
been honestly legendary. And for those of you who are
just joining us, who have just found this case, found
the podcast, I mean, maybe I'll go back and repost
(13:52):
some of those episodes because there is an influx of
new people who have found the podcast and who are
trying to catch up on what's going going on. But
just a quick wrap, a quick roundup. Maxwell has had
six ballot attempts and all of them have been turned down.
Everything she's tried while she's been in jail has been
nixed by the judge, and every single argument in regards
(14:15):
to loopholes and technicalities has been exed out, and people
like Maxwell will they're not used to that happening to them.
They're used to having their requests accepted, and they're used
to having their wants met. But Judge Nathan rejected that request,
(14:36):
ruling that the public and the press have a constitutional
right to observe jury selection. She also declined to include
some proposed inquiries from Maxwell's legal team in the jury
questionnaire that probe jurors attitudes toward people who are wealthy
and people who have luxurious lifestyles. I mean, really, nobody
(14:57):
cares if people are living a good life. People care
if you're living a good life and being a dickhead
at the same time. Okay, they try and conflate the
issue and make it like everybody's jealous that these people
are living so good. At least for me, that's not
the case. I don't care how much money someone has
or how much success somebody gets. In fact, I hope
we all have that right. But it's the way you
(15:19):
conduct yourself, the way you treat other people, and the
way you burn ground trying to get there. And Maxwell
and the rest of these generationally, rich people are not good.
They're not nice people. They don't care. And if Maxwell
cared so much about fixing the justice system, don't you
(15:39):
think she would have been in this fight before she
was arrested, before she was emmed up, like people like
I have been for years and years and years. I've
been talking about this kind of reform literally for a decade, folks,
so much so that my friends are tired of hearing
my nonsense. Oh come on, Boddy, really more of this
(16:00):
nonsense about the criminal justice system being reformed? Yeah, bitch,
how many of our friends talking about? When I'm around
with my friends, I've been caught up in this shit?
How many of our loved ones? I mean, I don't
know about you folks out there, but I have friends
on both sides of the argument. I have a friend
who has been killed by the police, and I have
friends who are cops. But the whole entire issue is
(16:27):
just wild. It's crazy to think that Ghlaine Maxwell and
her legal team think that people are going to hold
it against her because she has a luxurious lifestyle. That's
not the case. The fact of the matter is Glainne
Maxwell has never cared about criminal reform. She's never cared
about people who have been killed by the police. She's
(16:50):
never cared about policemen who have been killed by criminals.
She just doesn't care about anybody but herself. So her
flossing and acting like she cares about criminal reform has
really bothered me throughout this whole thing. Maxwell fifty nine,
is the youngest child of Robert Maxwell, the multi millionaire
British media tycoon who died in nineteen ninety one. In
(17:13):
court filings associated with her unsuccessful attempts to be released
from custody, Gallainne Maxwell disclosed assets of more than twenty
million dollars. And remember when her pops died, Glenn Maxwell
was crying, she was broke. So how do you amass
twenty million dollars if you're broke? The reason is because
she has more than twenty million. How much of it's offshore,
(17:35):
how much of it's stashed somewhere else, I'm guessing a lot.
So for those of you who are not aware who
Bob Maxwell is, I guess I'm going to have to
drop a couple of those episodes as well to catch
folks up. Bob Maxwell. Just a quick recap Glenn Maxwell's dad,
very powerful man in media, ended up getting arrested and
(17:55):
well at least charged with burning through a bunch of
pension money, and his fate ended on a boat in
the Canary off the Canary Islands, where they said he
fell off and died. In reality, another sketchy so called suicide.
So that's the short version. I'm gonna post those episodes
(18:18):
so that you can go back and check them out
and get a more of a deep dive into who
Bob Maxwell is. Nathan plans to question dozens of potential
jurors each day this week, with the goal of identifying
about fifty qualified jurors who will be asked to return
on November twenty ninth, the first day of the trial.
Attorneys for the government and for Maxwell will then make
(18:40):
their final strikes of jurors in order to seat a
panel of twelve jurors and six alternates. The jury will
not be sequestered, Nathan said, but in order to protect
their privacy, they will be publicly identified only by their
assigned numbers. I think that's a safe way to go
about it, right, give them a little bit of a
(19:01):
anonymity considering what they're dealing with. And the situation at hand.
So we're we're in it now, folks. We're right in
the middle of the thick of it, and it's only
going to get more crazy and interesting from here. So
obviously I will be here every single day as I
have been for the past two and a half years
(19:23):
covering this case. The only twist is we're adding some
live streams. And when I say some live streams, I
don't mean just one a week like we used to
do on Sundays. I'm talking about several a week, maybe
three or four, because it is that time. The time
(19:43):
for talk quickly coming to an end, and the time
for convictions is certainly upon the horizon. If you'd like

Hello everyone, and welcome to the Jeffrey Epstein Show. I'm
your host, Bobby Kapucci, and this is a morning update.
(20:24):
What's up everyone in Greetings from Sin City, Hope everybody's
having a great week so far, and hopefully your Thursday
is following suit. Well, it looks like they're starting to
get things banged out as far as the jury selection
process and the final dates for this trial. Now we
(20:46):
know we have a hard date to start, and that's
November twenty ninth. What we don't know is how long
this trial is going to take. And for me that's
of super importance because I'm still trying to figure out
my travel arrangements. Now. Originally in July, middle of the pandemic,
well not the middle of the pandemic, but you know
(21:08):
what I mean, stuff was still closed down. Work that
the other thing, I was able to spend the whole
month in New York, no problem. Now though in December,
middle of the holidays, things ramped back up in the
real world. No way I can spend the month there.
So I have to be judicious. I have to figure
(21:28):
out what's going to work best. And obviously I want
to be there when they read the conviction. So what
I'm trying to figure out here is when they're going
to estimate this is going to end. So what I'm
thinking is I won't go for opening statements, right I
(21:52):
won't show up for the first couple of weeks, but
show up for like the last ten days. That way,
we get the you know, the purp Walk at the end,
hopefully and all of the good stuff. So what I'm
hoping is that I could get into New York, I
don't know, like December tenth or something like that, and
(22:13):
then spend another ten days and then the trial's over
by you know, Christmas. That's what I'm hoping. With my luck,
there's probably little chance that'll happen and I'll have to adjust,
But either way, once they get this stuff locked in,
I can figure out more of an idea about my
(22:34):
game plan. I know a lot of you have been
asking me about, you know, when I'm gonna be there
and stuff, because you want to meet up, and I'm
totally totally down with that. When I'm in New York,
for those of you who are based on the East
Coast or those of you who are going to be
in town for the trial, we'll definitely get together. We'll
go do a lunch, hang out, shoot the shit, whatever
(22:56):
it may be. But I'm just trying to figure out
exactly when, because there's a lot that goes into it. Right,
I don't have the resources of New York Times or
all these other people that are going crazy getting donations
from their listeners or anything like that. I'm footing the bill,
(23:17):
so I gotta be a little cautious about what I
do here. You know, certainly not one of the men
of Always, So I don't have the kind of funds
to just be changing plane tickets and all of that.
So what I gotta do is make sure I get
everything locked in correctly so that I'm not, you know,
(23:37):
chasing my tail over here. So it's crucial for me
to figure this all out and to have them at
least get a basic idea, right, So hopefully they can
figure it out, and hopefully this trial ends before Christmas.
That would be perfect. Imagine it ends right before Christmas,
(23:59):
Maxwell gets convicted and she has to spend her birthday
knowing she's going to prison, never mind jail, but to prison. Boy.
That would be the greatest Christmas ever, wouldn't it. So
let's hope that they get it all figured out, and
let's hope that there's a proper game plan here so
that cha boy can figure out his game plan. Because
(24:23):
I have a bunch of other projects I'm going to
be working on soon as well. I have my other podcast,
Beyond the Horizon, that's going strong, and I'm also messing
around with a couple of local projects here in town
that have to do with the homeless issue in Las Vegas.
It is a big problem here and I am kind
(24:47):
of trying my hand at a bit of a documentary,
if I'm being honest. So we'll see how all of
that works out, and we'll see what sort of content
I can come up with. But I'm real busy right now.
I have a bunch of stuff going on, and guess what,
I'm happy for it because that time spent in the lockdown. Man,
(25:08):
One thing I said is I wanted to be real
productive when the lockdown lifted, as far as content and
everything else. And I'm on that path. So if you
folks aren't following me over at Beyond the Horizon yet,
I don't know why you wouldn't be, but make sure
you do that it's on Apple and all of the
rest of it, unlike this show, of course, which has
(25:29):
been banned by Apple. How many other podcasts following the
Epstein case can say that you know a lot of
these other podcasters and people in the world of Epstein.
They talk a good game, but really, let's be real,
so we all know that we've been over the target
here on this podcast from the jump and most of
(25:49):
these other podcasts. Let's be very honest, just imitations. So
we'll see where it all goes, and we'll see what happens,
and I'll be here whenever there's news to pump out.
But as this case gets closer to the climax, obviously
there's less to talk about, and I know you guys
(26:12):
don't want to hear rehashed bullshit, and I'll leave the
chupa cabra conspiracy theories to other people. So when there's
news to get to, you better believe we'll be here
banging it out. But I'm not just gonna fill your
ears up with noise just because I respect your time
too much for that. And honestly, the people that are
(26:32):
still here listening to this show after all of the purges,
and you folks are superheroes, you're might try, right, all
you folks listening to this show at the Jeffrey Epstein Show.
That means you folks have actively searched it out, went
to a different host, found it somewhere else because Apple
banned does so you folks, I'll tell you what most
(26:57):
hardcore there is to keep it rolling. And I do
appreciate all of you. So every time there's news, we're
gonna be here pumping it out. And after the Maxwell
case wraps up, I have a surprise for everybody. I'm
not gonna talk about it now, we'll wait, but I
think it's something that a lot of you out there
are gonna be really, really happy with. So now that
(27:19):
I've left you on the edge of your seat, let's
jump into today's article and let's talk about Jerry selection
and the timeframe. Headline from New York Post portions of
Glane Maxwell's Jerry selection could be kept from the public.
Author of this article is Ben Fure. Heard lawyers in
(27:44):
Glene Maxwell's upcoming sex trafficking trial have requested to hide
from public view portions of Jerry selection, according to a
new court filing, And I expected this. You want the
Jerry sequestered here, right. I don't want them to have
any folks, no technicalities, no loopholes, no wiggle room, only
(28:05):
you and the truth. And they're gonna try and wiggle
out every single way they can. There's no doubt about it.
So if the Jerry's not sequestered, then of course they'll
start talking about it tainted Jerry pool blah blah blah blah.
So I think this is a good idea. Federal prosecutors
(28:27):
for the Southern District of New York wrote to Judge
Alison Nathan that they agree with a request by Maxwell's
attorneys that the questionnaires in proposed questions post to jurors
by the judge or lawyer be sealed to avoid press
coverage of the process. And again I agree with that.
I know we all want to, you know, have all
(28:48):
the information right up front, but when it comes to
the integrity of the trial, I don't want any more roadblocks.
It is time for these ladies Virginia, Maria and Courtney
and the rest to get a little bit of a
peace of mind. It's time for this process to get moving.
(29:09):
And if we have a screwed up Jerry selection process,
we're right back at square one. So I'm glad the
prosecutors are getting together with Maxwell's team here and they're
figuring this out because justice has been delayed for way
too long here, folks, it is time for that train
(29:31):
that has already left the station by the way to
come barreling down the tracks. The defense respectfully requests that
the joint Proposed Jury Questionnaire and Joint proposed questions be
filed under seal to avoid media coverage that may prejudice
(29:52):
the jury selection process. The government consents to the defense's request.
A trio of federal prosecutors wrote to Nathan on Tuesday night.
So with all of them on board the prosecution, the
defense looks like this will go through and we'll get
us a questered jury. Now. I don't know where they're
gonna find any jurors who haven't heard of this case,
(30:14):
but okay, that's their job. I guess. Jerry questionnaires and
the questioning of potential jurors are typically accessible to the
press and public in federal trials. So the federal system
is a little bit different than the states. Right, There's
different rules that govern the federal justice system as far
(30:38):
independently from the states, and in a federal trial, you're
usually able to access this stuff. But in this case,
considering the sensitivity of everything they have said, you know what,
let's pull back on that and let's not give that access. Now.
The reason the prosecutors are doing this. It's not because
(30:59):
they're night, It's because they don't want any chance of
Maxwell's team to come up with some kakamami excuse about
how the jerpool was tainted. So that's really what all
of this is about. In a subsequent letter to Nathan,
prosecutors wrote they expect their case could last up to
(31:20):
four weeks when the trial begins on November twenty ninth.
Four weeks yikes, So they're saying it can go all
the way up to December twenty ninth. That would be
just brutal for me, folks. I don't mean to wing here,
but man smack dab in the middle of Christmas, especially
after last year when I couldn't spend Christmas with my family.
(31:42):
Rough That estimate is conservative, and the government anticipates that
it could rest as early as the third week of trial,
provided that the cross examination of witnesses do not exceed
the length of direct examinations. They wrote, Now that would
be perfect in the trial, like the twenty first, the
twenty second, yea boy could be on a flight back
(32:04):
home to New York on the twenty third, and I
mean a flight home from New York on the twenty
third and back in Vegas that night. Seek because for me,
Christmas Eve is the most important day, and for the
Italian folks out there that are listening, you get it.
Christmas Eve is always the most important day in Italian families.
(32:25):
I mean Christmas Eve, and I just I really really
pains me to even think about missing Christmas Eve at
my family's house. You know, it's the only time I
get to see some of my relatives for the whole year.
So I've really hope, beyond hope that this trial will
be done before Christmas Eve. Maxwell's attorneys expect their defense
(32:50):
to last approximately two weeks. According to the letter, Maxwell
is accused of procuring underage girls for multimillionaire pedophile Jeffrey
Epstein to abuse in the nine and early two thousands.
So probably what I will do is I'll probably head
into New York, like I was thinking in the first place,
like the start of the third week of the trial,
(33:18):
and be there for the last two weeks. That's my goal,
and hopefully it all lines up and if the defense
rests in two weeks like they said three weeks, that
it'll be perfect. She's pleaded not guilty to the charges,
and has requested five times that she's been let out
(33:38):
on Bell pending trial. She's been denied each time. The
disgraced British socialite, co conspirator, general, all around scusbag, fellow
child abuser and bipedal serpent is being held at the
Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn pending trial, and has repeatedly
complained about the horrendous condition at the lockup. Oh yeah,
(33:59):
you're in jail, lady. Enjoy the blooney sandwiches. Enjoy all
of the luxuries that are provided to you by Uncle Sam,
and more importantly, get used to it, because after this
trial's over, after you're convicted, you, Glen Maxwell, will be
(34:21):
going to prison, I hope for a very very very
long time. And you know, it still calls me by
the way they act like she's getting treated so bad,
and you know what, not even the man act slapped
on her. No, Rico, she's getting off light. Let's be real.
Let's call it for what it is. If we want
(34:41):
to get down in the weeds. She's getting off light here,
thirty five years, that's it. Eighty years still not enough.
She should be facing Rico, She should be facing the
man Act and all of these scoundrels that enabled this
shit financially, they should be getting swooped up to. I
(35:02):
did an interview over at the generation Z podcast last
week you can find it on YouTube, and we talked
about this, how these enablers are a big problem and
how they're never going to be held to account because
they're rich. You notice how R Kelly got slapped with
that rico right, Oh, well he's rich too, Yeah, he
don't have political connections. But Jeffrey Epstein and Glenn Maxwell,
(35:29):
on the other hand, well they were rolling around with
the you know, the most powerful amongst us. So you
see how it's different. You see how Jeffrey Epstein and
Glenn Maxwell they don't get those rico charges, but R
Kelly does. So when she complains about her conditions and
the jail and all of that, it makes me so
(35:51):
mad because I know people who have really went and
done prison sentences ten fifteen years, and let me tell you,
this certainly wasn't pleasant. The way Maxwell's is no computer,
none of it, just time to reflect and an ultimate
amount of violence. So she thinks she has it bad.
(36:13):
Now wait till she hits the yard and you know,
she's gonna be pceed up. They're not gonna put her
in the yard. So the whole oh my conditions are
so bad argument is just garbage to me. And every
time she says it, I just think about Khalif, Browder, Maxwell,
(36:35):
her team, all of these so called elite have gotten
away with this shit for way too long, and now
it's time to put that to rights a bit, and
it all starts with this trial and Maxwell going to
prison forever. If you like to contact me, you can

(37:20):
there who have stuck strong with me throughout this whole
ride three years, man, you folks are the best. And
to everybody who has found me recently on the Epstein chronicles, yeah,
thank you folks for finding me and welcome to the
shit Show. I'll be back tomorrow and we will pick
(37:41):
up where we left off. Have a great day everyone,
Everyone, and welcome back to the program. Yo, let's just
jump right in, shall we. We are thirteen days away
from Galaine Maxwell's trial, and today the jury selection period begins. Now,
the original pool was over six hundred jurors and now
they have h whittled it down to two hundred jurors
(00:22):
and Judge Nathan expects to go through fifty of them
per day for the next few days until we get
it sessed out. And guess what, folks, I am fired up.
I'm ready to go, and I cannot wait for this
trial to get underway. I have spent legitimately three years
(00:42):
of my life, every single day covering this case and
trying to shine a little bit of a spotlight on
the incredible injustice that occurred here. And of course, the
people who suffered the most were those directly involved, those
who were abuse used by Jeffrey Epstein and his cohorts.
(01:04):
But if you think for a minute society as a
whole wasn't abused here, you're wrong. All of us were
taken for a ride here by the authorities, by the
justice system, and by those who are supposed to be
there to protect the most vulnerable. So this just wasn't
(01:26):
a you know, a black mark against the government because
of their behavior by protecting Epstein and making sure no
justice was administered here. But they screwed the rest of
us as well. And I know so many people who
have contacted me and said this case especially has shattered
(01:47):
their view of what the Justice Department is, of what
the system in place is supposed to be, and so
many people are reevaluating their core beliefs. And I'll tell
you what, that's part of leveling up. It's okay, right,
you don't have to be the same person you were yesterday.
And anyone who doesn't understand that, anyone who tries to
(02:08):
pigeonhole you, anyone who tries to keep you in a box,
is somebody that you probably don't need in your life.
So it's okay to, you know, level up and have
different feelings today than you did yesterday. And that's all
part of it. Right. As a case like this goes
(02:30):
and it evolves, you learn things that will shake you
to your core and rock some of your core beliefs.
I know it did for me. I came into this
case with one point of view, and I'm leaving with
a completely separate one. And when you are willing to
be moved from your biases and you're willing to follow
(02:52):
the evidence even if it goes against what you believe,
then you are certainly on your way to leveling up.
And it was a long process for me as well,
letting go of old biases, trying to rewire my brain
to think correctly, making it a point to leave echo
chambers and get other opinions, because at the end of
(03:15):
the day, that's how we really grow right being uncomfortable.
So this case has shook people to their core, and
it's really had a lot of people reevaluating their opinion
of the legacy media or the authorities. And it's definitely
(03:38):
a good thing in my opinion that people are looking
at the authorities with a more stringent eye. You know, again,
we can't just sit back and expect the authorities just
to do the right thing all the time. It's up
to us to keep their feet to the fire. Right.
They work for us, and we forget about that a
lot of the time, and these guys run off and
(03:59):
do whatever the hell they want to do and protect
their friends and not administer justice the way they're supposed to.
But finally, starting today, we get into the portion of
this case where at least some justice is at the
end of this tunnel. So with that said, let's jump
(04:23):
into our article today from ABC News and let's see
what James Hill has to say about the juror situation.
Headline Gallane Maxwell trial Federal judge to question more than
two hundred potential jurors. Author of this article, Like I said,
(04:43):
James Hill, a pool of prospective jurors for the criminal
trial of Galline Maxwell will be questioned by a federal
judge on Tuesday morning in Manhattan, two weeks before Maxwell's
criminal trial is set to begin. So again, being that
it's New York, you know that there is a wide
(05:04):
variety of people who are part of this jurpool, who
are going to be questioned and who are potentially going
to populate the jurors bench. Now. Originally, Glenn Maxwell's team
complained when the grand jury wasn't paneled up in Westchester County.
She complained that it was not varied enough. There weren't
(05:27):
enough different groups of people for the grand jury to
choose from, et cetera, et cetera. So that should certainly
not be a problem this time around, considering this is
going to be in Manhattan, and there really is no
argument there. Right, there are so many people from different
(05:50):
walks of life in Manhattan and the surrounding boroughs that
you could definitely find a jur pool that is acceptable
to both parties. Now, with that said, you know that
Maxwell's lawyers are going to be going hard in the
paint today and trying to dismiss all potential jurors who
might have some kind of you know, ill opinion of
(06:14):
people like Maxwell. And that's all part of it, right,
that's how this stuff works. But eventually they're gonna needle
this down and they're gonna get it down to the
twelve jurors who are going to sit on the panel.
And today begins all of that. And it's very interesting
how all of it takes place, and the fact that
it's open to the public is even more interesting. If
(06:36):
you ask me, I'm fascinated by the way that these
things happen, you know, behind the scenes. It is a
very interesting situation to watch unfold. Maxwell, a one time companion,
co conspirator, general all around scusbag, fellow child abuser, and
(06:56):
bipedal serpent of deceased sex offender pedophile Jeffrey Epstein is
facing a six count federal indictment alleging she conspired with
Epstein and aided his serial sexual abuse of minor girls
between nineteen ninety four and two thousand and four. She
is pleaded not guilty to all the charges. Well, we
(07:18):
expected that, right, You didn't expect her to say, ah, yeah,
I'm guilty. I did it. You guys, just you know,
come and put me in prison for the rest of
my life. People like this, they never admit that they're wrong.
People like Elaine Maxwell have spent their whole entire life
with people pampering them, telling them that they can do
no wrong, that they're the best people in society, and
(07:40):
the rest of us are worthless. That's how these people
grow up. And that's not even hyperbole. When you're in
a room with people like this, they look at you
as less. Then you don't have the dough, you don't
have the reach, you don't have the influence, so therefore
you are less than Meanwhile, we all look at these
(08:01):
people and we're disgusted. At this point, I honestly don't
know anyone from any political side that isn't disgusted with
the ultra rich. And when I say the ultra rich, folks,
I'm not talking about people who make a few million bucks,
ten million bucks, even twenty million bucks, even you ain't
ultrarich rich. I'm talking about generational wealth. The small handful
(08:24):
of people that are truly making waves, that are truly
setting the agenda for the world. Those are the people
that I'm talking about when I say mega rich and
Glen Maxwell most certainly was in that stratosphere, rubbing shoulders
with those people, hanging out with world leaders. These are
(08:45):
people that had an exceptional amount of influence over some
very very powerful people folks. Over the last two weeks,
the initial jerry pool of about six hundred people was
called to two hunds thirty one after each candidate for
the panel filled out a twenty five page written questionnaire
(09:06):
designed to screen for potential potential biases and conflicts of interest.
US District Judge Alison Nathan the Southern District of New York,
who is overseeing Maxwell's trial, plans to further query each
potential juror individually an open court on such topics as
their exposure to media reporting about this case, their knowledge
(09:27):
and opinions of both Maxwell and Epstein and their ability
to serve on a lengthy trial that will likely continue
into January. And again, the trial length is insane to me.
Originally we were looking at like four weeks, remember when
I was supposed to start on July twelfth. So my
(09:47):
plan was to go to New York in the middle
of the summer and stay there for the whole trials
five weeks, four weeks, whatever it was going to be.
But with this trial now moved into November, in the
middle of the holidays, and and the fact that i
haven't been able to really spend the holidays with my
family the last couple of years because of the pandemic,
and it's just not feasible for me to go in
(10:10):
for the duration. So my plan is to go in
the first week of January and then stay for the
whole trial, and doing that, I'll be able to get
there for the opening of the situation between Virginia and
Prince Andrew as well. So kind of a kill two
birds with one stone type of situation. But I'm very
(10:33):
excited to get down there, and I'm going to be
meeting up with several people who I've talked with throughout
this whole entire ordeal, some people I've worked with throughout
this whole entire ordeal, and also some people who are
just following the case. So if you're going to be
in New York around this time and you want to
link up down around the courthouse, go grab a dirty
(10:55):
water dog like we call him in New York, or
a pretzel, or just hang out and shoot the shit.
Make sure you let me know. I'm gonna be down
there the whole time, hanging out hopefully inside that courtroom,
if not right outside on the steps, live streaming there.
So either way, your boys there for it. Maxwell's lawyers
(11:16):
had previously argued for the court to conduct the questioning
of potential jurors in a confidential setting, outside the view
of the public and the press. They contended that the
extraordinary measures were necessary to effectively screen for exposure to
a tsunami of publicity about the high profile sex trafficking case. Look,
(11:37):
that's all ridiculous to me. Whenever there's a high profile case,
people are gonna be interested in it. That's just the
way it goes. And it's not like Maxwell's getting any
more interest than anybody else got. Look at the wave
of interest for Weinstein, the wave of interest for R. Kelly,
and I'll contend that Weinstein and R. Kelly up till
this point have gotten even more exposure than Maxwell. When
(12:01):
you look at Maxwell and frame it next to everybody
else who went down for these crimes, Maxwell has gotten
less exposure. And again this is just my guess here,
but the reason is is because Maxwell is so connected
to so many powerful people, and those powerful people reach
out to other powerful people. And will you understand why
(12:23):
there's not this tsunami of publicity that they're talking about
Now we're coming to the trial that all might change.
There's going to be an uptick. For sure, there's going
to be Glenn Maxwell's name trending like it was yesterday
on Twitter, and there's going to be an influx of
interest in this case and there's zero doubt about it.
(12:45):
So with that, there's also going to be an increase
in the grifters as well, So be very careful. This
case amplifies the likelihood that jurors will be more apprehensive
and constrained to respond openly and honestly in open court
within earshot of other jurors, members of the public, and
the media. Maxwell's attorney Bobby C. Sternham wrote in a
(13:06):
court filing last month. So what she's saying is because
of the nature of this case and how you know,
how fragile it is, because it has to do with
children and stuff like that, that they fear that the
jurors or potential jurors wouldn't be honest because other jurors
might overhear them, which is absolutely ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. So
(13:30):
I'm glad that Judge Nathan told them to kick rocks here.
I mean, the ridiculousness of Maxwell's attempts to try and
get out of this trial throughout this whole thing have
been honestly legendary. And for those of you who are
just joining us, who have just found this case, found
the podcast, I mean, maybe I'll go back and repost
(13:52):
some of those episodes because there is an influx of
new people who have found the podcast and who are
trying to catch up on what's going going on. But
just a quick wrap, a quick roundup. Maxwell has had
six ballot attempts and all of them have been turned down.
Everything she's tried while she's been in jail has been
nixed by the judge, and every single argument in regards
(14:15):
to loopholes and technicalities has been exed out, and people
like Maxwell will they're not used to that happening to them.
They're used to having their requests accepted, and they're used
to having their wants met. But Judge Nathan rejected that request,
(14:36):
ruling that the public and the press have a constitutional
right to observe jury selection. She also declined to include
some proposed inquiries from Maxwell's legal team in the jury
questionnaire that probe jurors attitudes toward people who are wealthy
and people who have luxurious lifestyles. I mean, really, nobody
(14:57):
cares if people are living a good life. People care
if you're living a good life and being a dickhead
at the same time. Okay, they try and conflate the
issue and make it like everybody's jealous that these people
are living so good. At least for me, that's not
the case. I don't care how much money someone has
or how much success somebody gets. In fact, I hope
we all have that right. But it's the way you
(15:19):
conduct yourself, the way you treat other people, and the
way you burn ground trying to get there. And Maxwell
and the rest of these generationally, rich people are not good.
They're not nice people. They don't care. And if Maxwell
cared so much about fixing the justice system, don't you
(15:39):
think she would have been in this fight before she
was arrested, before she was emmed up, like people like
I have been for years and years and years. I've
been talking about this kind of reform literally for a decade, folks,
so much so that my friends are tired of hearing
my nonsense. Oh come on, Boddy, really more of this
(16:00):
nonsense about the criminal justice system being reformed? Yeah, bitch,
how many of our friends talking about? When I'm around
with my friends, I've been caught up in this shit?
How many of our loved ones? I mean, I don't
know about you folks out there, but I have friends
on both sides of the argument. I have a friend
who has been killed by the police, and I have
friends who are cops. But the whole entire issue is
(16:27):
just wild. It's crazy to think that Ghlaine Maxwell and
her legal team think that people are going to hold
it against her because she has a luxurious lifestyle. That's
not the case. The fact of the matter is Glainne
Maxwell has never cared about criminal reform. She's never cared
about people who have been killed by the police. She's
(16:50):
never cared about policemen who have been killed by criminals.
She just doesn't care about anybody but herself. So her
flossing and acting like she cares about criminal reform has
really bothered me throughout this whole thing. Maxwell fifty nine,
is the youngest child of Robert Maxwell, the multi millionaire
British media tycoon who died in nineteen ninety one. In
(17:13):
court filings associated with her unsuccessful attempts to be released
from custody, Gallainne Maxwell disclosed assets of more than twenty
million dollars. And remember when her pops died, Glenn Maxwell
was crying, she was broke. So how do you amass
twenty million dollars if you're broke? The reason is because
she has more than twenty million. How much of it's offshore,
(17:35):
how much of it's stashed somewhere else, I'm guessing a lot.
So for those of you who are not aware who
Bob Maxwell is, I guess I'm going to have to
drop a couple of those episodes as well to catch
folks up. Bob Maxwell. Just a quick recap Glenn Maxwell's dad,
very powerful man in media, ended up getting arrested and
(17:55):
well at least charged with burning through a bunch of
pension money, and his fate ended on a boat in
the Canary off the Canary Islands, where they said he
fell off and died. In reality, another sketchy so called suicide.
So that's the short version. I'm gonna post those episodes
(18:18):
so that you can go back and check them out
and get a more of a deep dive into who
Bob Maxwell is. Nathan plans to question dozens of potential
jurors each day this week, with the goal of identifying
about fifty qualified jurors who will be asked to return
on November twenty ninth, the first day of the trial.
Attorneys for the government and for Maxwell will then make
(18:40):
their final strikes of jurors in order to seat a
panel of twelve jurors and six alternates. The jury will
not be sequestered, Nathan said, but in order to protect
their privacy, they will be publicly identified only by their
assigned numbers. I think that's a safe way to go
about it, right, give them a little bit of a
(19:01):
anonymity considering what they're dealing with. And the situation at hand.
So we're we're in it now, folks. We're right in
the middle of the thick of it, and it's only
going to get more crazy and interesting from here. So
obviously I will be here every single day as I
have been for the past two and a half years
(19:23):
covering this case. The only twist is we're adding some
live streams. And when I say some live streams, I
don't mean just one a week like we used to
do on Sundays. I'm talking about several a week, maybe
three or four, because it is that time. The time
(19:43):
for talk quickly coming to an end, and the time
for convictions is certainly upon the horizon. If you'd like
to contact me, you can do that at Bobby Kapuci
at protonmel dot com. That's bo b b y c

link that we discussed can be found in the description box.
Hello everyone, and welcome to the Jeffrey Epstein Show. I'm
your host, Bobby Kapucci, and this is a morning update.
(20:24):
What's up everyone in Greetings from Sin City, Hope everybody's
having a great week so far, and hopefully your Thursday
is following suit. Well, it looks like they're starting to
get things banged out as far as the jury selection
process and the final dates for this trial. Now we
(20:46):
know we have a hard date to start, and that's
November twenty ninth. What we don't know is how long
this trial is going to take. And for me that's
of super importance because I'm still trying to figure out
my travel arrangements. Now. Originally in July, middle of the pandemic,
well not the middle of the pandemic, but you know
(21:08):
what I mean, stuff was still closed down. Work that
the other thing, I was able to spend the whole
month in New York, no problem. Now though in December,
middle of the holidays, things ramped back up in the
real world. No way I can spend the month there.
So I have to be judicious. I have to figure
(21:28):
out what's going to work best. And obviously I want
to be there when they read the conviction. So what
I'm trying to figure out here is when they're going
to estimate this is going to end. So what I'm
thinking is I won't go for opening statements, right I
(21:52):
won't show up for the first couple of weeks, but
show up for like the last ten days. That way,
we get the you know, the purp Walk at the end,
hopefully and all of the good stuff. So what I'm
hoping is that I could get into New York, I
don't know, like December tenth or something like that, and
(22:13):
then spend another ten days and then the trial's over
by you know, Christmas. That's what I'm hoping. With my luck,
there's probably little chance that'll happen and I'll have to adjust,
But either way, once they get this stuff locked in,
I can figure out more of an idea about my
(22:34):
game plan. I know a lot of you have been
asking me about, you know, when I'm gonna be there
and stuff, because you want to meet up, and I'm
totally totally down with that. When I'm in New York,
for those of you who are based on the East
Coast or those of you who are going to be
in town for the trial, we'll definitely get together. We'll
go do a lunch, hang out, shoot the shit, whatever
(22:56):
it may be. But I'm just trying to figure out
exactly when, because there's a lot that goes into it. Right,
I don't have the resources of New York Times or
all these other people that are going crazy getting donations
from their listeners or anything like that. I'm footing the bill,
(23:17):
so I gotta be a little cautious about what I
do here. You know, certainly not one of the men
of Always, So I don't have the kind of funds
to just be changing plane tickets and all of that.
So what I gotta do is make sure I get
everything locked in correctly so that I'm not, you know,
(23:37):
chasing my tail over here. So it's crucial for me
to figure this all out and to have them at
least get a basic idea, right, So hopefully they can
figure it out, and hopefully this trial ends before Christmas.
That would be perfect. Imagine it ends right before Christmas,
(23:59):
Maxwell gets convicted and she has to spend her birthday
knowing she's going to prison, never mind jail, but to prison. Boy.
That would be the greatest Christmas ever, wouldn't it. So
let's hope that they get it all figured out, and
let's hope that there's a proper game plan here so
that cha boy can figure out his game plan. Because
(24:23):
I have a bunch of other projects I'm going to
be working on soon as well. I have my other podcast,
Beyond the Horizon, that's going strong, and I'm also messing
around with a couple of local projects here in town
that have to do with the homeless issue in Las Vegas.
It is a big problem here and I am kind
(24:47):
of trying my hand at a bit of a documentary,
if I'm being honest. So we'll see how all of
that works out, and we'll see what sort of content
I can come up with. But I'm real busy right now.
I have a bunch of stuff going on, and guess what,
I'm happy for it because that time spent in the lockdown. Man,
(25:08):
One thing I said is I wanted to be real
productive when the lockdown lifted, as far as content and
everything else. And I'm on that path. So if you
folks aren't following me over at Beyond the Horizon yet,
I don't know why you wouldn't be, but make sure
you do that it's on Apple and all of the
rest of it, unlike this show, of course, which has
(25:29):
been banned by Apple. How many other podcasts following the
Epstein case can say that you know a lot of
these other podcasters and people in the world of Epstein.
They talk a good game, but really, let's be real,
so we all know that we've been over the target
here on this podcast from the jump and most of
(25:49):
these other podcasts. Let's be very honest, just imitations. So
we'll see where it all goes, and we'll see what happens,
and I'll be here whenever there's news to pump out.
But as this case gets closer to the climax, obviously
there's less to talk about, and I know you guys
(26:12):
don't want to hear rehashed bullshit, and I'll leave the
chupa cabra conspiracy theories to other people. So when there's
news to get to, you better believe we'll be here
banging it out. But I'm not just gonna fill your
ears up with noise just because I respect your time
too much for that. And honestly, the people that are
(26:32):
still here listening to this show after all of the purges,
and you folks are superheroes, you're might try, right, all
you folks listening to this show at the Jeffrey Epstein Show.
That means you folks have actively searched it out, went
to a different host, found it somewhere else because Apple
banned does so you folks, I'll tell you what most
(26:57):
hardcore there is to keep it rolling. And I do
appreciate all of you. So every time there's news, we're
gonna be here pumping it out. And after the Maxwell
case wraps up, I have a surprise for everybody. I'm
not gonna talk about it now, we'll wait, but I
think it's something that a lot of you out there
are gonna be really, really happy with. So now that
(27:19):
I've left you on the edge of your seat, let's
jump into today's article and let's talk about Jerry selection
and the timeframe. Headline from New York Post portions of
Glane Maxwell's Jerry selection could be kept from the public.
Author of this article is Ben Fure. Heard lawyers in
(27:44):
Glene Maxwell's upcoming sex trafficking trial have requested to hide
from public view portions of Jerry selection, according to a
new court filing, And I expected this. You want the
Jerry sequestered here, right. I don't want them to have
any folks, no technicalities, no loopholes, no wiggle room, only
(28:05):
you and the truth. And they're gonna try and wiggle
out every single way they can. There's no doubt about it.
So if the Jerry's not sequestered, then of course they'll
start talking about it tainted Jerry pool blah blah blah blah.
So I think this is a good idea. Federal prosecutors
(28:27):
for the Southern District of New York wrote to Judge
Alison Nathan that they agree with a request by Maxwell's
attorneys that the questionnaires in proposed questions post to jurors
by the judge or lawyer be sealed to avoid press
coverage of the process. And again I agree with that.
I know we all want to, you know, have all
(28:48):
the information right up front, but when it comes to
the integrity of the trial, I don't want any more roadblocks.
It is time for these ladies Virginia, Maria and Courtney
and the rest to get a little bit of a
peace of mind. It's time for this process to get moving.
(29:09):
And if we have a screwed up Jerry selection process,
we're right back at square one. So I'm glad the
prosecutors are getting together with Maxwell's team here and they're
figuring this out because justice has been delayed for way
too long here, folks, it is time for that train
(29:31):
that has already left the station by the way to
come barreling down the tracks. The defense respectfully requests that
the joint Proposed Jury Questionnaire and Joint proposed questions be
filed under seal to avoid media coverage that may prejudice
(29:52):
the jury selection process. The government consents to the defense's request.
A trio of federal prosecutors wrote to Nathan on Tuesday night.
So with all of them on board the prosecution, the
defense looks like this will go through and we'll get
us a questered jury. Now. I don't know where they're
gonna find any jurors who haven't heard of this case,
(30:14):
but okay, that's their job. I guess. Jerry questionnaires and
the questioning of potential jurors are typically accessible to the
press and public in federal trials. So the federal system
is a little bit different than the states. Right, There's
different rules that govern the federal justice system as far
(30:38):
independently from the states, and in a federal trial, you're
usually able to access this stuff. But in this case,
considering the sensitivity of everything they have said, you know what,
let's pull back on that and let's not give that access. Now.
The reason the prosecutors are doing this. It's not because
(30:59):
they're night, It's because they don't want any chance of
Maxwell's team to come up with some kakamami excuse about
how the jerpool was tainted. So that's really what all
of this is about. In a subsequent letter to Nathan,
prosecutors wrote they expect their case could last up to
(31:20):
four weeks when the trial begins on November twenty ninth.
Four weeks yikes, So they're saying it can go all
the way up to December twenty ninth. That would be
just brutal for me, folks. I don't mean to wing here,
but man smack dab in the middle of Christmas, especially
after last year when I couldn't spend Christmas with my family.
(31:42):
Rough That estimate is conservative, and the government anticipates that
it could rest as early as the third week of trial,
provided that the cross examination of witnesses do not exceed
the length of direct examinations. They wrote, Now that would
be perfect in the trial, like the twenty first, the
twenty second, yea boy could be on a flight back
(32:04):
home to New York on the twenty third, and I
mean a flight home from New York on the twenty
third and back in Vegas that night. Seek because for me,
Christmas Eve is the most important day, and for the
Italian folks out there that are listening, you get it.
Christmas Eve is always the most important day in Italian families.
(32:25):
I mean Christmas Eve, and I just I really really
pains me to even think about missing Christmas Eve at
my family's house. You know, it's the only time I
get to see some of my relatives for the whole year.
So I've really hope, beyond hope that this trial will
be done before Christmas Eve. Maxwell's attorneys expect their defense
(32:50):
to last approximately two weeks. According to the letter, Maxwell
is accused of procuring underage girls for multimillionaire pedophile Jeffrey
Epstein to abuse in the nine and early two thousands.
So probably what I will do is I'll probably head
into New York, like I was thinking in the first place,
like the start of the third week of the trial,
(33:18):
and be there for the last two weeks. That's my goal,
and hopefully it all lines up and if the defense
rests in two weeks like they said three weeks, that
it'll be perfect. She's pleaded not guilty to the charges,
and has requested five times that she's been let out
(33:38):
on Bell pending trial. She's been denied each time. The
disgraced British socialite, co conspirator, general, all around scusbag, fellow
child abuser and bipedal serpent is being held at the
Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn pending trial, and has repeatedly
complained about the horrendous condition at the lockup. Oh yeah,
(33:59):
you're in jail, lady. Enjoy the blooney sandwiches. Enjoy all
of the luxuries that are provided to you by Uncle Sam,
and more importantly, get used to it, because after this
trial's over, after you're convicted, you, Glen Maxwell, will be
(34:21):
going to prison, I hope for a very very very
long time. And you know, it still calls me by
the way they act like she's getting treated so bad,
and you know what, not even the man act slapped
on her. No, Rico, she's getting off light. Let's be real.
Let's call it for what it is. If we want
(34:41):
to get down in the weeds. She's getting off light here,
thirty five years, that's it. Eighty years still not enough.
She should be facing Rico, She should be facing the
man Act and all of these scoundrels that enabled this
shit financially, they should be getting swooped up to. I
(35:02):
did an interview over at the generation Z podcast last
week you can find it on YouTube, and we talked
about this, how these enablers are a big problem and
how they're never going to be held to account because
they're rich. You notice how R Kelly got slapped with
that rico right, Oh, well he's rich too, Yeah, he
don't have political connections. But Jeffrey Epstein and Glenn Maxwell,
(35:29):
on the other hand, well they were rolling around with
the you know, the most powerful amongst us. So you
see how it's different. You see how Jeffrey Epstein and
Glenn Maxwell they don't get those rico charges, but R
Kelly does. So when she complains about her conditions and
the jail and all of that, it makes me so
(35:51):
mad because I know people who have really went and
done prison sentences ten fifteen years, and let me tell you,
this certainly wasn't pleasant. The way Maxwell's is no computer,
none of it, just time to reflect and an ultimate
amount of violence. So she thinks she has it bad.
(36:13):
Now wait till she hits the yard and you know,
she's gonna be pceed up. They're not gonna put her
in the yard. So the whole oh my conditions are
so bad argument is just garbage to me. And every
time she says it, I just think about Khalif, Browder, Maxwell,
(36:35):
her team, all of these so called elite have gotten
away with this shit for way too long, and now
it's time to put that to rights a bit, and
it all starts with this trial and Maxwell going to
prison forever. If you like to contact me, you can

ride three years, man, you folks are the best. And

thank you folks for finding me and welcome to the
shit Show. I'll be back tomorrow and we will pick

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
