The Bill Gates Epstein Related Congressional Transcripts (Part 12) (6/29/26)

The Maxwell Deposition: What Congress Wants — And What She’ll Never Say

Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted associate of Jeffrey Epstein who is serving a 20-year federal prison sentence, is scheduled to give a **virtual deposition before the U.S. House Oversight Committee on February 9, 2026, as part of the committee’s ongoing investigation into Epstein’s criminal network and the federal government’s handling of related cases. Committee Chairman James Comer issued a subpoena for Maxwell’s testimony, which comes amid growing pressure from lawmakers to uncover additional information about Epstein’s operations and his circle of powerful associates. Maxwell’s lawyers have indicated she may invoke her Fifth Amendment rights during the deposition rather than answer substantive questions, and she had previously resisted congressional questioning while pursuing appeals of her conviction. The deposition is being conducted in closed session, and while Maxwell already participated in an extensive interview with Department of Justice officials last year, congressional leaders see her testimony as a potentially critical piece in efforts to understand the broader Epstein network and related government responses. The context of Maxwell’s appearance is entangled with broader political and legal battles over the release of Epstein-related documents, compliance with subpoenas by other high-profile figures, and disputes between Congress and both the DOJ and the Supreme Court over access to evidence. Republicans and Democrats alike have pushed for more transparency, while some subpoenaed individuals, including former officials, have resisted testifying, triggering threats of contempt proceedings. Maxwell’s deposition thus comes at a moment of heightened scrutiny on how federal authorities handled Epstein and his network — and whether powerful individuals connected to that network will ever be compelled to speak under oath to lawmakers seeking accountability. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Ghislaine Maxwell summoned before Congress for grilling over Epstein secrets | Daily Mail Online [https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15485145/Ghislaine-Maxwell-summoned-Congress-grilling-Epstein-secrets.html]

Mark Epstein Says His Brother Was Murdered And He Thinks Trump Is Responsible

Mark Epstein has consistently stated that he does not believe his brother, Jeffrey Epstein, died by suicide and has instead argued that he was murdered while in federal custody. From the beginning, Mark has pointed to what he sees as glaring irregularities in the circumstances of Jeffrey Epstein’s death, including the failure of jail staff to properly monitor him, the broken or unusable surveillance cameras, and the rapid rush by authorities to declare the death a suicide. He has said these failures go far beyond ordinary negligence and suggest, at minimum, a system that allowed Epstein to die when powerful interests may have preferred him silent. Mark has emphasized that his brother had recently been taken off suicide watch and, in his view, showed no signs consistent with an imminent suicide at that moment. He has repeatedly framed these facts as incompatible with the official narrative offered by the Bureau of Prisons and the DOJ. Mark Epstein has also cited medical and forensic concerns to support his belief that his brother was killed. He has publicly referenced findings from the autopsy that noted fractures in Jeffrey Epstein’s neck bones, arguing that these injuries are more commonly associated with strangulation than with hanging. Mark has said that the refusal of authorities to seriously address these findings, combined with the lack of accountability for the jail failures, reinforces his suspicion of foul play. He has further argued that Jeffrey Epstein was uniquely dangerous to powerful people because of what he knew, and that his death conveniently prevented testimony, cooperation, or further exposure of co-conspirators. For Mark Epstein, the issue is not just personal grief but what he describes as a profound failure of justice, where unanswered questions have been buried rather than investigated with the seriousness such a death demands. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Trump accused of role in Epstein’s death in explosive email sent to FBI, documents reveal | The Independent [https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/crime/trump-epstein-death-emails-fbi-b2916010.html?test_group=lighteradlayout]

One Percent Truth: How the DOJ Gutted the Epstein Transparency Law

By the DOJ’s own actions, what was promised as a meaningful step toward transparency has instead turned into a masterclass in bad faith. Despite a clear legal mandate requiring the release of Epstein-related records by December 19th, the Department of Justice has released roughly 1% of what it was obligated to disclose. Not 1% of what was convenient. Not 1% of what they felt like parting with. One percent of the total universe of documents they have publicly acknowledged possessing. This is not a paperwork hiccup or a minor delay—it is an institutional refusal to comply with the spirit or the letter of the law. For decades, the DOJ has insisted that Epstein was thoroughly investigated, that the evidence was reviewed, that the case was handled—yet when transparency is finally required, the files suddenly become too numerous, too complex, and too sensitive to release on time. The contradiction is glaring: either these materials were already organized and understood, or the DOJ has been misleading the public for years about the depth and seriousness of its investigation. For survivors, this isn’t just bureaucratic nonsense—it’s a direct insult. Many of them waited decades to be believed, to see the system acknowledge what was done to them and who enabled it. Releasing a token sliver of records while slow-walking the rest sends a clear message: institutional self-protection still outweighs accountability. To the American public, it’s an unmistakable middle finger—proof that even when Congress acts, even when the law is explicit, the DOJ believes it can stall, obfuscate, and wear people down through attrition. Transparency delayed is transparency denied, and in this case, the delay isn’t accidental. It reinforces the same power imbalance that allowed Epstein to operate in plain sight for so long, signaling that when powerful interests are implicated, justice remains optional and accountability remains negotiable. to  contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Justice Department has released only 1% of Epstein files, new filing says [https://www.scrippsnews.com/us-news/crime/epstein-files/justice-department-has-released-only-1-percent-of-epstein-files-new-filing-says#google_vignette]

Lesley Groff And The Transcript From Her Epstein Related Trip to Congress (Part 3) (7/3/26)

Lesley Groff told the House Oversight Committee that she worked for Jeffrey Epstein from February 2001 until July 2019 as his secretary/administrative assistant, handling scheduling, calls, travel coordination, calendars, and staff logistics. Her central position was that Epstein kept her separated from his criminal life, that she never witnessed abuse, never had a victim disclose abuse to her, and did not knowingly help Epstein or Maxwell commit crimes. She described Epstein as a “master manipulator” who lied to her and kept his “legitimate” world apart from his abuse, while acknowledging that she scheduled massage appointments when Epstein provided names and numbers, sometimes circulated calendars that included those appointments early on, and understood the massages as routine at the time. She said she did not personally meet the massage providers, did not know they were minors or young women, and assumed they were masseuses, even though members pressed her on why an extremely wealthy man would use rotating names and phone numbers instead of a professional massage service. The questioning also focused heavily on Epstein’s network and whether Groff had knowledge of powerful men being provided access to girls or young women through Epstein or Maxwell. Groff repeatedly answered no when asked whether she had arranged massages for prominent figures, knew of sexual activity involving minors or young women, or knew of anyone who knowingly facilitated Epstein’s crimes. She acknowledged scheduling or connecting Epstein with high-profile contacts, including Prince Andrew, Ehud Barak, Larry Summers, George Mitchell, John Kerry, Wesley Clark, Bill Clinton-related circles, and Donald Trump phone calls, but denied arranging Trump travel during her employment and denied knowledge of Trump-related law enforcement communications. She also said she never suspected Epstein or Maxwell of working with any intelligence service. Overall, Groff’s testimony was defensive and narrow: she admitted to being part of the machinery that kept Epstein’s calendar and contacts moving, but insisted she never saw the criminal operation underneath it and never knowingly enabled it. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source:   Lesley-Groff-Transcript.pdf [https://oversight.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Lesley-Groff-Transcript.pdf]
