Lesley Groff and the Daily Machinery of Jeffrey Epstein’s Abuse (6/25/26)

Tova Noel And The Transcript From Her Congressional Testimony (Part 13) (6/25/26)

Tova Noel, one of the two correctional officers assigned to the Metropolitan Correctional Center’s Special Housing Unit on the night Jeffrey Epstein died, told the House Oversight Committee that she failed to conduct the required inmate checks and later signed records falsely indicating that the rounds had been completed. Noel described an understaffed, poorly managed facility in which she was exhausted, inadequately trained and assigned duties beyond her normal responsibilities. She maintained that she last saw Epstein alive during the evening medication round and observed nothing that made her believe he was preparing to harm himself. Noel also testified that Epstein received unusual accommodations, including extra bed linens, a CPAP machine and access to medication that appeared different from the treatment ordinarily given to other prisoners. Noel denied having any role in Epstein’s death, receiving money in connection with him or knowing anything about an alleged payment to facilitate access to his cell. She also rejected claims that she was the unidentified orange-colored figure seen moving toward Epstein’s tier at approximately 10:39 p.m., insisting that she never returned to the area and could not explain what—or who—the surveillance image showed. Although Noel said she believed Epstein died by suicide because he was supposedly alone inside the cell, her testimony did little to resolve the most important unanswered questions: why required checks were abandoned, why Epstein remained without a cellmate, who or what appeared near the tier, and how so many security procedures failed simultaneously. Instead, her account reinforced the picture of extraordinary negligence, special treatment and institutional dysfunction surrounding the death of the most consequential prisoner in federal custody. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Tova-Noel-Transcript.pdf [https://oversight.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Tova-Noel-Transcript.pdf]

Western Australia Police Review The Circumstances Leading To Virginia Robert's Death (6/25/26)

Western Australian police have agreed to review how officers handled their interactions with Virginia Giuffre before her death by suicide in April 2025. Giuffre’s brother, Sky Roberts, and sister-in-law, Amanda Roberts, wrote to both police and the state coroner asking for scrutiny of the response to a domestic violence dispute involving Giuffre and a former partner. Police commissioner Col Blanch confirmed during a parliamentary hearing that the family’s letter had been received and that a review was underway, while saying he did not yet know the details of the police response and wanted the review to establish what happened. The family says they are not challenging the official circumstances of Giuffre’s death, but they want answers about whether police failed to properly follow up after she reportedly went to a police station more than once. Amanda Roberts questioned where those reports are and why further action did not appear to continue, while Sky Roberts framed the push as part of a broader demand to examine systemic failures around domestic and family violence. Family violence experts and advocates have also backed the request for an inquest, arguing that Giuffre’s case could expose wider failures in how authorities respond to victims before tragedy strikes to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Western Australian police to review response to Virginia Giuffre domestic violence dispute | Jeffrey Epstein | The Guardian [https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jun/24/western-australian-police-to-review-response-to-virginia-giuffre-domestic-violence-dispute-ntwnfb]

Lesley Groff and the Daily Machinery of Jeffrey Epstein’s Abuse (6/25/26)

Lesley Groff, Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime executive assistant, told the House Oversight Committee in a closed-door interview that she booked massage appointments for Epstein “almost daily,” but denied knowingly arranging appointments with anyone she believed was underage. Groff said Epstein usually gave her names and phone numbers, that the calls were brief, and that massages were treated as a routine part of his schedule. Lawmakers pressed her hard on how she could work for Epstein for 18 years and not recognize what was happening, with Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi saying her explanation “strains credibility.” Groff maintained that nobody she spoke with sounded underage and that she was not “evaluating voices.” Groff also said Epstein manipulated her after his 2008 arrest by claiming he had been blackmailed and set up, and that she believed his explanation at the time because he could appear kind and generous. She said she now sees that as part of his manipulation, expressed sorrow for survivors, and said she believes them. The testimony matters because Groff was identified years ago as a potential co-conspirator but was never charged, and her account highlights one of the central unresolved questions in the Epstein case: how someone so close to the daily machinery of his life could claim not to understand that the endless “massage” appointments were part of the abuse pipeline. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The Congressional Oversight Committee Releases The Epstein Related Bill Gates Transcript (6/25/26)

Bill Gates told the House Oversight Committee that his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein was, in his telling, about philanthropy — Epstein claimed he could connect Gates to wealthy donors who might put major money into global health work. Gates said he met Epstein beginning in 2011, after Epstein’s 2008 conviction, and continued interactions until 2014, when he concluded Epstein could not deliver on those promises. He denied witnessing Epstein commit crimes, denied visiting Epstein’s island, ranch, or Florida home, and said he “never victimized anyone,” while acknowledging that he may have been in the presence of Epstein victims during his dealings with Epstein. The more damaging part is that Gates admitted Epstein gained access to sensitive information about his personal life, including extramarital affairs, and allegedly tried to use that information — mixed with falsehoods, according to Gates — to pressure him back into contact. Gates portrayed Epstein as a manipulator who used proximity to powerful people to launder his reputation, while lawmakers pressed the obvious question: why Gates kept engaging with a convicted sex offender at all. Gates expressed regret, saying he should never have met with Epstein, but the testimony still adds another example of Epstein’s method: insinuating himself into elite circles, collecting leverage, and using access as currency. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Bill Gates says he didn’t witness crimes but may have been in presence of Epstein victims | CNN Politics [https://www.cnn.com/2026/06/23/politics/bill-gates-epstein-deposition]
