1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: What's up everyone, and welcome to another episode of the

2
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:08,800
Epstein Chronicles. Well, well, well, isn't this rich A Maxwell

3
00:00:08,839 --> 00:00:13,000
is lecturing the world about natural justice. You honestly couldn't

4
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,519
script irony this thick if you tried. Here, we've got

5
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,440
Glayne's own brother, blood of the same dynasty that spent

6
00:00:19,559 --> 00:00:23,280
decades cocooned and wealth, privilege and denial, pretending to be

7
00:00:23,359 --> 00:00:26,120
the voice of reason while taking potshots at a woman

8
00:00:26,199 --> 00:00:29,199
who didn't have the luxury of lawyers, lords, or private

9
00:00:29,239 --> 00:00:32,200
jets to hide behind. The sheer nerve of it almost

10
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:33,200
deserves applause.

11
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:34,759
Speaker 2: Almost.

12
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: This man, whose sister was convicted of sex trafficking miners,

13
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,039
somehow thinks he's the arbiter of truth. Wagon his finger

14
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,159
at Virginia Robert's memoir as if it's some great threat

15
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:49,000
to jurisprudence. As you'll see, he drones on about precision

16
00:00:49,079 --> 00:00:51,960
and timelines like a courtroom accountant, never mind the grow

17
00:00:52,079 --> 00:00:55,560
test crimes that his sister was convicted of enabling and

18
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,640
taking part in. He talks about due process while casually ignoring,

19
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,640
however and Glane spend decades weaponizing the same system to

20
00:01:03,679 --> 00:01:07,560
destroy lives. The hypocrisy is so dense it's practically a

21
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,480
black hole. So let's get real. What we're talking about

22
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:15,000
here is not literary criticism. This is a family pr

23
00:01:15,079 --> 00:01:19,760
cleanup disguised as moral philosophy. It's damage control with the thesaurus,

24
00:01:20,239 --> 00:01:24,560
because deep down, every maxwell knows the family name is radioactive,

25
00:01:25,239 --> 00:01:29,000
and no amount of sanctimony or pseudo legal babble will

26
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,519
scrub it clean. So here he is wagging his pen

27
00:01:32,599 --> 00:01:35,560
at a dead survivor's book like that's the real injustice.

28
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,799
And that smug, condescending tone about how Roberts used words

29
00:01:39,879 --> 00:01:43,920
like rad or needed a dramatist persona just another sneering

30
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,879
example of elitism from a man who's never had to

31
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,079
fight for credibility in his life. He can't wrap his

32
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,560
head around the fact that survivors don't write with perfect

33
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,959
legal precision because they were busy surviving. But to him,

34
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,560
it's all about how tidy the narrative looks on paper.

35
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,319
It's almost onn the beloe until you remember who you're

36
00:02:02,359 --> 00:02:05,799
dealing with, And in the end, the entire argument boils

37
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,080
down to this, my sister was convicted, so let's discredit

38
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,199
the girl who helped expose her, And even after all

39
00:02:12,199 --> 00:02:14,639
the trials, all the evidence, and all the victims, the

40
00:02:14,719 --> 00:02:17,479
Maxwell families still can't bring themselves to look in the mirror.

41
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,840
They'd rather attack the dead than accept the truth and

42
00:02:20,879 --> 00:02:24,039
the entitlement of it. All reeks and it reeks of

43
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,719
a man that's so insulated by privilege that he actually

44
00:02:26,759 --> 00:02:30,319
believes that he's the one qualified to weigh in on credibility.

45
00:02:31,039 --> 00:02:33,599
The same family that stood by while their patriarchs stole

46
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,840
billions and crash dampires now wants to lecture the world

47
00:02:37,039 --> 00:02:40,800
about ethics. The Maxwells have turned Denial into an art forum.

48
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,680
Every scandal, every crime, every life ruined, it's always someone

49
00:02:44,719 --> 00:02:49,319
else's fault. He calls Virginia's story fictionalized, like he's uncovering

50
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,759
some grand conspiracy, when in reality, he's just parroting the

51
00:02:52,759 --> 00:02:56,439
same gaslighting tactics that every abuser and enabler before him

52
00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:00,520
have used. He nitpicks the details because he can't face

53
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,240
the big picture that his sister and her billionaire partner

54
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,719
were serial predators, and he's still run in defense years later,

55
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,240
still swinging at ghosts because the truth scorched the family

56
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,759
name beyond repair. You can almost feel the resentment dripping

57
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,879
from every line. How darrel, working class girl from Florida

58
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,719
bring down people with yachts and titles. How dare she

59
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,319
speak out about things polite society likes to pretend never happen.

60
00:03:24,319 --> 00:03:27,199
It's the same contempt that's kept the elite protected for decades,

61
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,680
the same sneer that says she's beneath us so her

62
00:03:30,719 --> 00:03:33,879
pain doesn't count. This fool doesn't care about natural justice.

63
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,960
He cares about restoring the Maxwell brand, trying to convince

64
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,080
the public that his sister's crimes were overblown and are

65
00:03:40,199 --> 00:03:44,319
victims unreliable. It's a desperate attempt to rewrite history before

66
00:03:44,319 --> 00:03:47,240
the ink on the verdict dries. But no matter how

67
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,800
many op eds he writes, no one's buying it. You

68
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,039
can't rebrand evil because when the doest settles, the truth

69
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,479
still stands. His sister groom children for a predator, His

70
00:03:56,599 --> 00:04:00,000
sister lied, his sister got caught, and all the same

71
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,879
ammonious drivel in the world won't change that. What's truly

72
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,759
stalinist isn't survivors speaking out. It's rich families trying to

73
00:04:07,759 --> 00:04:11,400
rewrite the record to save face. Yo, So save the lectures.

74
00:04:11,479 --> 00:04:11,759
Speaker 2: Champ.

75
00:04:12,039 --> 00:04:14,759
Speaker 1: The world seen what justice looks like. When your sister's

76
00:04:14,759 --> 00:04:18,199
holding the keys. It looks like bribes, cover ups and NDAs.

77
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,600
It looks like power buying silence, And it looks exactly

78
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,240
like this column. Another privileged voice trying to talk down

79
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,439
to the dead because the living won't stop asking questions.

80
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,079
The Maxwell family doesn't get to decide who deserves belief anymore.

81
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,040
They forfeited that right the minute they helped the monster

82
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,040
operate in plain sight. And for her brother to sit

83
00:04:40,079 --> 00:04:44,560
here moralizing about credibility after everything Delane did, after everything

84
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:49,399
she was convicted of, is beyond shameless, it's obscene. So no,

85
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,800
we're not taking lectures on precision or truth from the

86
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,120
House of Maxwell. Not when your sister's crimes are written

87
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,079
in court transcripts and your family's denial is inked in

88
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,199
every word you publish. You can posture all you want,

89
00:05:02,879 --> 00:05:05,920
but history has already rendered its verdict, and no spin,

90
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,600
no revision, no smug essay can change that. This article

91
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:16,879
was published by The Spectator headlined don't take Virginia Roberts

92
00:05:16,959 --> 00:05:22,199
memoir at face value. The author of this article, Ian Maxwell,

93
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,399
six months after she took her own life at age

94
00:05:25,399 --> 00:05:29,040
forty one, Virginia roberts memoir and Nobody's Girl, written with

95
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:34,160
her professional collaborator Amy Wallace, has been published. It's bound

96
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,680
to evoke distinct and intensified feelings and readers because the

97
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,199
account of her suffering couple with the manner of her

98
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,839
death increases the emotional impact of the narrative. Or people

99
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,560
might know the story. Mister Maxwell, I know that your

100
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,560
sister was a vile, disgusting predator and that your sister

101
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:56,399
was directly responsible for the pain and suffering of countless girls.

102
00:05:56,959 --> 00:05:59,040
Probably a good idea, just to own up to it.

103
00:06:00,959 --> 00:06:04,279
The writing style and tone of a book feel authentic. Roberts,

104
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,360
who was born in nineteen eighty three, uses words like

105
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:11,639
rad meaning awesome or cool, and stoner dude to describe

106
00:06:11,639 --> 00:06:15,399
someone who smokes a lot of weed, pluster, constant reliance

107
00:06:15,399 --> 00:06:18,800
on music to make the world make sense, seem very

108
00:06:18,879 --> 00:06:24,480
zenial as late Generation xers or early millennials are sometimes

109
00:06:24,519 --> 00:06:28,959
called whatever that means? Or how about just Generation X?

110
00:06:29,639 --> 00:06:32,399
Is this guy really going to try and posture and

111
00:06:32,519 --> 00:06:36,839
talk about popular culture? Mister stiff upper lip himself, mister

112
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,319
Magoo's brother. Here's an idea, bro go eat some spotted

113
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,920
dick and shut your yap. If Roberts is to be believed,

114
00:06:45,079 --> 00:06:47,920
one could not fail surely to be moved by her account,

115
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,120
which is quite graphic in places, and by the arc

116
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,040
of a tragic life that is chronicled in four parts

117
00:06:54,319 --> 00:06:59,680
with emotative titles daughter, Prisoner, survivor, and warrior. There's no index, however,

118
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,839
so the book could have been done with a dramatist

119
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,720
persona to help keep track of who is in large

120
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,079
cast of characters. Above all, it would have benefited from

121
00:07:09,079 --> 00:07:12,040
a detailed timeline of her life and the key events

122
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,199
that she describes. Oh that's how you wanted the book

123
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,439
to be formatted, mister Maxwell. Here's an idea. Sit your

124
00:07:19,519 --> 00:07:21,920
dumbass sister down, bring her some Chick fil A, and

125
00:07:21,959 --> 00:07:24,560
have her write a memoir. We're all very interested to

126
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,000
see what the bipedal serpent has to say. By the way,

127
00:07:28,319 --> 00:07:30,759
you guys, ever, pay back that money that your dad stole.

128
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:35,199
Maybe you should put together a not at about that precision,

129
00:07:35,439 --> 00:07:39,759
particularly to accurately identifying named abusers, when and where the

130
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,079
alleged abuse took place, and crucially how old she was

131
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,639
at the relevant times. Is not However, the author's strong

132
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,199
point when it comes to standing up her narrative version

133
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:54,079
of events. This precision really matters in the sexual abuse accusations.

134
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:58,480
Robert's levels who cares. You may ask if she was sixteen,

135
00:07:58,519 --> 00:08:01,639
seventeen or eighteen when she met Jeffrey Epstein, who.

136
00:08:01,439 --> 00:08:02,839
Speaker 2: She accused of years of abuse.

137
00:08:03,959 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: It isn't a trivial difference, however, when it comes to

138
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:12,279
statutory rape charges. At my sister Glaine's trial, as Roberts

139
00:08:12,279 --> 00:08:16,079
herself notes to her manifest disappointment, two of the accusers

140
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,759
testified only after the judge instructed jurors that their description

141
00:08:19,839 --> 00:08:22,839
of alleged sexual conduct could not be used to convict

142
00:08:22,879 --> 00:08:26,079
Glane of the crimes charged. Kate was above the age

143
00:08:26,079 --> 00:08:29,360
of consent in the relevant jurisdiction, and Annie was not

144
00:08:29,399 --> 00:08:32,720
considered a minor in New Mexico where the alleged sexual

145
00:08:32,759 --> 00:08:37,600
contact had occurred sixteen years old. Sixteen years old, and

146
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,639
that's the defense you're going to use. That is some sick,

147
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,360
degenerate shit right there. And that's the kind of defense

148
00:08:45,399 --> 00:08:47,200
that you have to fall back on when you don't

149
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,919
have anything else to go to. Right We're talking about

150
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,360
a real degenerate kind of fucking answer here. Ah, well

151
00:08:54,399 --> 00:08:58,159
she was sixteen, that's cool, no big deal. Well what

152
00:08:58,279 --> 00:09:02,320
about the other abuse of Annie? What about the fact

153
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,600
that you got pictures or your sister, I should say,

154
00:09:04,639 --> 00:09:09,600
had pictures of Annie in various states of undress. This

155
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,440
guy really thinks that nobody paid attention during the trial.

156
00:09:13,039 --> 00:09:15,720
You're not going to rewrite history. Why don't we go

157
00:09:15,759 --> 00:09:18,320
back and read those impact statements? And if your sister

158
00:09:18,399 --> 00:09:20,679
was so innocent, then why is she sitting in a

159
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,519
jail cell right now? Why was she convicted of the

160
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:28,200
crimes that she was accused of? If these witnesses were

161
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,279
so weak, if the witnesses were so terrible and bad,

162
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,559
why is your lame ass sister sitting in prison right now?

163
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:40,600
Ian Maxwell Roberts had previously accused Alan Dershowitz, the sometime

164
00:09:40,639 --> 00:09:43,960
Epstein lawyer, of abusing her no fewer than six times,

165
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,720
including in the Netflix series Filthy Rich, but later admitted

166
00:09:47,879 --> 00:09:51,120
she may have been mistaken. Yet in her memoir, she writes,

167
00:09:51,159 --> 00:09:53,919
some critics have insinuated that there's no way I could

168
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,799
remember these men. But to them, I say simply this,

169
00:09:57,759 --> 00:09:59,759
When a man has been on top of you, his

170
00:09:59,759 --> 00:10:03,039
faith just inches from your own. You remember them. But

171
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,720
if that's true, how could she he have been mistaken

172
00:10:05,919 --> 00:10:10,559
about Dershowitz I already explained this. She's giving you a

173
00:10:10,639 --> 00:10:13,759
hint right here with what she's saying that she would

174
00:10:13,799 --> 00:10:18,320
never forget the people who did what they did, and

175
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,320
Virginia was sick of the lawsuits. She had nothing else

176
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,399
to prove. She put all these names out here years

177
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,200
and years and years ago, and it was up to

178
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,159
the authorities to pursue them, to open investigations at the

179
00:10:31,279 --> 00:10:34,600
very least and look deeper into the matter. They didn't

180
00:10:34,639 --> 00:10:36,639
do any of that. So at some point you have

181
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,879
to say to yourself, enough is enough, right, And when

182
00:10:38,879 --> 00:10:41,440
you read in between the lines of what Virginia's really saying,

183
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,200
that's certainly what it looks like to me. Now, look,

184
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,320
I don't know that for sure, and I won't sit

185
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,480
here and even begin to speak for Virginia or what

186
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,600
she meant. But when you read in between the lines,

187
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,159
and you've talked of Virginia before and you've heard what

188
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,919
she had to say, sure seems to me that she

189
00:10:58,039 --> 00:11:00,960
was suffering from fatigue when it comes to the lawsuits

190
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,000
and just all of the stress and trauma surrounding the

191
00:11:04,039 --> 00:11:07,240
whole situation, And I think the evidence is strengthened for

192
00:11:07,279 --> 00:11:09,399
all of that when we see the end result of

193
00:11:09,399 --> 00:11:12,120
what happened with Virginia and her taking her own life.

194
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:14,879
At some point, enough is enough?

195
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:15,159
Speaker 2: Right?

196
00:11:15,399 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: How much can one person shoulder When it comes to

197
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,679
Robert's first hand account of her time in Epstein and

198
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,000
Maxwell's orbit, Ammy Wallace, in her preface states it was

199
00:11:26,039 --> 00:11:29,759
supported by thousands of pages of public core documents, including

200
00:11:29,799 --> 00:11:32,759
sworn depositions containing the full names of many of the

201
00:11:32,799 --> 00:11:36,480
men whom Virginia alleged she had been trafficked to. Their

202
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,879
contents are supported by numerous other sources, including published books

203
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,240
on the subject by authors such as Miami Herald, Julie K. Brown,

204
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,399
and Virginia's former attorney Bradley Edwards. As if the sheer

205
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,559
quantity of such material and the implied quality of the

206
00:11:51,639 --> 00:11:55,879
names in support our standalone proof of Robert's overall veracity,

207
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:02,360
this is a surprisingly stalinist approach to corroborate, Buddy. We've

208
00:12:02,399 --> 00:12:05,000
been through how many court documents here on this podcast,

209
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:09,759
how many depositions, how many different articles, and they all

210
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,720
lead to the same place. Your gross ass sister was

211
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,879
guilty and all the shit that Virginia was talking about

212
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,159
was going on, so let's see the evidence of it

213
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:23,559
not being true. And speaking of evidence, your skafuza of

214
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,600
his sister had every chance in the world to get

215
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,159
up on that stand and deny what happened. Why didn't

216
00:12:28,159 --> 00:12:30,759
she do it? Why didn't you're a boy the Joe

217
00:12:30,799 --> 00:12:34,240
exotic of the Windsor family defend his name because they're

218
00:12:34,279 --> 00:12:37,799
fucking guilty, right, Ian Maxwell. There aren't many things that

219
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,679
I dislike more than people that punch down. I cannot

220
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,360
stamp people like Ian Maxwell who think that they can

221
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,080
use their money, their power, their prestige to bully people.

222
00:12:47,759 --> 00:12:50,519
Now that might work with other folks, that shit is

223
00:12:50,639 --> 00:12:53,679
day around here, because I promise you there is not

224
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,440
one bone in my body that is intimidated by any

225
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,080
of these people that took part in what was going on,

226
00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:01,960
not one of them. And that goes for all their

227
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,679
re pundits too. Like I say, I'm not hard to find.

228
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,759
You want that smoke, come get it? You know, six

229
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,159
years on, for some reason, none of these motherfuckers ever

230
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,399
take me up on that offer, though, I mean hell,

231
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,279
they wouldn't even respond to me when I showed up

232
00:13:14,279 --> 00:13:16,720
at Geffrey Epstein's house. So I guess that tells you

233
00:13:16,759 --> 00:13:19,080
everything you need to know about all of these tough

234
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,440
guys in Jeffrey Epstein's orbit. Tough when it has to

235
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,720
do with beating up on girls, tough when it comes

236
00:13:24,759 --> 00:13:28,240
to intimidating people, but not so tough when people are

237
00:13:28,279 --> 00:13:30,399
willing to stand up to them and tell them to

238
00:13:30,399 --> 00:13:33,720
go get fucked. Because, make no mistake, that's what I've

239
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,879
been telling this whole entire organization, this whole conglomarati, for

240
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,000
six years, and I'll continue to tell them that, and

241
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,240
they're in't a damn thing they can.

242
00:13:42,159 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 2: Do about it.

243
00:13:43,039 --> 00:13:46,399
Speaker 1: Roberts herself states in the introduction in her memoir, until now,

244
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,440
I have never told my whole story. Doing so allows

245
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,159
me to fill in gaps, to provide context where it

246
00:13:52,159 --> 00:13:55,039
has been sorely lacking, and in key places, to set

247
00:13:55,039 --> 00:13:58,480
the record straight. She confirms, however, that she did in

248
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,039
that complete a one hundred thirty nine page typewritten manuscript

249
00:14:02,159 --> 00:14:06,399
entitled The Billionaire's Playboy Club. Although unpublished, it found its

250
00:14:06,399 --> 00:14:09,600
way into the court record, and that's why I'm sharing

251
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,919
that with you as well. You deserve the whole story,

252
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,399
and then from there you can make your own decisions

253
00:14:14,399 --> 00:14:17,120
about what you believe and what you don't believe. I've

254
00:14:17,159 --> 00:14:19,440
never felt like I have to prove anything to anybody

255
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,480
about this story. For me, it's about providing you with

256
00:14:22,519 --> 00:14:24,960
the facts, with receipts, and then you can look into

257
00:14:25,039 --> 00:14:27,519
it yourself, and if you believe it, great, If you don't,

258
00:14:27,559 --> 00:14:32,120
that's cool too. The context she then provides about the

259
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,399
version of her life is to blame the Mail on

260
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,240
Sunday reporter Sharon Churcher for advising her in twenty eleven

261
00:14:38,279 --> 00:14:41,960
twenty twelve to fictionalize parts of the narrative to avoid

262
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,200
being sued. Like that wouldn't happen, Like she wouldn't have

263
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:51,399
been sued. It was good advice, especially back then. This,

264
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,240
she says, accounts for why my third encounter with Prince

265
00:14:54,279 --> 00:14:57,919
Andrew occurred at Zoro Ranch in New Mexico, not where

266
00:14:57,919 --> 00:15:02,039
it actually occurred the Caribbean. It wasn't until twenty nineteen

267
00:15:02,559 --> 00:15:05,799
that Robert's own lawyers had to admit in court documents

268
00:15:05,879 --> 00:15:09,639
that the manuscript was indeed fictionalized. No different than what

269
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:13,240
Glenn Maxwell has to say about everything right a complete

270
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,559
work of fiction. You know your serial liar's sister who

271
00:15:16,639 --> 00:15:19,360
was charged with perjury and would have been convicted of

272
00:15:19,399 --> 00:15:22,440
it if they didn't drop those charges. Oh yeah, that's

273
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:24,879
same person, and you have the stones to show up

274
00:15:24,879 --> 00:15:28,639
talking about fictionalized it's from this disclaim memoir that Julie K.

275
00:15:28,759 --> 00:15:32,679
Brown directly quotes Robert's verbatim or a paraphrases her in

276
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:36,159
her twenty twenty one book, Perversion of Justice. The book

277
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,480
is dedicated to Roberts, which might explain why Brown was

278
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:43,360
happy to corroborate her version of events to Wallace. Is

279
00:15:43,399 --> 00:15:47,240
it any wonder, therefore, that Robert's credibility issues were one

280
00:15:47,279 --> 00:15:50,000
reason she was neither named as a victim nor called

281
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,559
as a witness in my sister's prosecution. She claimed that

282
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,759
she was not called as a witness because she would

283
00:15:55,759 --> 00:15:59,600
have been a distraction. But that's a self serving lie. Again,

284
00:15:59,759 --> 00:16:03,840
this dud's talking about self serving and lies from a Maxwell.

285
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,240
Have you ever told the truth, Ian Maxwell about anything?

286
00:16:07,279 --> 00:16:07,519
Speaker 2: Ever?

287
00:16:09,559 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: And the reason that Virginia wasn't used as a witness

288
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,879
is because the prosecution and the scope of that prosecution

289
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,399
was very narrow. There was no Rico, so they went

290
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,360
with the cases that they knew were rock solid for them.

291
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,320
What Ian Maxwell forgets to mention is that it was

292
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,919
the Glenn Maxwell and Virginia Roberts lawsuit that opened the

293
00:16:30,919 --> 00:16:34,200
door for all of this, you know, the one that

294
00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:37,080
Glenn Maxwell lost or she was proven to be a

295
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,519
liar time and time again. And that's why I find

296
00:16:39,519 --> 00:16:42,159
this whole narrative that's being pitched here by Ian Maxwell

297
00:16:42,679 --> 00:16:46,919
wild as hell. Your sister is the biggest liar in history,

298
00:16:47,279 --> 00:16:49,240
and you're actually gonna try and paint somebody else with

299
00:16:49,279 --> 00:16:53,919
that sam brush. At Glainne's sentencing hearing, despite not featuring

300
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,279
in her trial at any capacity, Roberts, who has never

301
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,480
cross examined under oath in any legal proceeding. That's a

302
00:17:00,519 --> 00:17:05,799
lie Ghlainne Maxwell's lawyers cross examiner for the deposition. What

303
00:17:05,799 --> 00:17:08,799
are you even talking about right now? How many times

304
00:17:08,799 --> 00:17:11,839
did Virginia Roberts sit down with the authorities, not her fault,

305
00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:17,160
they didn't proceed U ginormous twatwaffle, The statement itself could

306
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,559
not be subjected to cross examination, and Robert's most serious

307
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:24,319
and untested allegations at a time to Glaine's sentence.

308
00:17:25,319 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, your sister's the victim.

309
00:17:27,039 --> 00:17:29,839
Speaker 1: Poor Glaine, You're lucky you're not sitting in a cell

310
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,839
next to her, because I have my doubts that you

311
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,119
didn't know what was going on when it comes.

312
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 2: To your pops, how about that?

313
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,599
Speaker 1: Roberts frequently writes lines such as I didn't want money,

314
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,839
I wanted justice, and mentions her charity sore you have

315
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,359
despite having reportedly received more than twenty million in settlements,

316
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,400
including at least two million from Prince Andrew, they won't

317
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:55,119
even admit the amount with Prince Andrew. Imagine being that obtuse,

318
00:17:55,319 --> 00:17:59,519
Imagine being that ridiculous. Well, that's just reality. If your

319
00:17:59,559 --> 00:18:06,039
name's Maxwell. The charity was never fully established, lost its

320
00:18:06,079 --> 00:18:09,359
tax exempt status due to inactivity, and has no record

321
00:18:09,519 --> 00:18:12,559
of charitable giving. Nearly three quarters of the way through

322
00:18:12,559 --> 00:18:15,599
the book, readers are asked if they can remember America

323
00:18:15,799 --> 00:18:19,079
before the me Too movement, which reached its apex in

324
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:22,279
late twenty seventeen in the pursuit of justice. Me Too

325
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:27,039
was a wave that Roberts, guided by her ruthlessly adept advisors,

326
00:18:27,079 --> 00:18:31,160
skillfully and above all profitably, rode to their mutual benefit.

327
00:18:31,319 --> 00:18:31,839
Speaker 2: Bullshit.

328
00:18:32,839 --> 00:18:35,839
Speaker 1: Nobody in pink hats showed up for Glenn Maxwell's trial.

329
00:18:36,079 --> 00:18:39,279
In fact, everybody ignored what was going on, and it

330
00:18:39,319 --> 00:18:42,200
was people like me who were talking about this. And

331
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,480
I'm certainly not a me too person, So save the bullshit.

332
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,599
It had nothing to do with me too. It had

333
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,519
to do with the fact that your sister and her

334
00:18:49,559 --> 00:18:53,400
disgusting egg dick buddy were hurting kids. That's what it

335
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,559
had to do with. And not just kids, by the way,

336
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,960
other people. Let's not act like just because somebody is

337
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,519
an adult, they can't trafficked or abused. While that movement

338
00:19:02,559 --> 00:19:05,839
has clearly raised increased public awareness of sexual misconduct, it

339
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,119
has also generated and an important debate over the erosion

340
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,640
of core principles of natural justice. The bully pulpit of

341
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,839
social media too often bypasses traditional mechanisms of due process,

342
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:21,559
with allegations leading to devastating reputational consequences before a formal

343
00:19:21,599 --> 00:19:24,880
investigation or hearing can occur. Your sister had a hearing,

344
00:19:25,039 --> 00:19:27,799
she was found guilty. Prince Andrew was given the chance

345
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,920
to defend himself. He decided to settle. So what are

346
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,160
you even talking about right now? Who hasn't been given

347
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,240
due process? And speaking of due process, since he's such

348
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,039
a big fan of it, I guess he'd add no

349
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,200
problem if there was an investigation launched into Prince Andrew,

350
00:19:41,519 --> 00:19:43,559
because you know, due process and all. That's what he's

351
00:19:43,599 --> 00:19:48,359
worried about, right right. By May of twenty twenty presidential

352
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,799
candidate as he was then, Joe Biden, facing allegations from

353
00:19:51,839 --> 00:19:55,240
a former staffer of sexual harassment twenty seven years earlier,

354
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,599
produced a more nuanced interpretation of the original METWO slogan

355
00:20:00,079 --> 00:20:03,160
Believe Women when he said, there's a belief that women

356
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,799
should be heard, that they deserve to be treated with

357
00:20:05,839 --> 00:20:09,039
dignity and respect, and that their story shouldn't be subject

358
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:14,000
to appropriate inquiry and scrutiny. So we're going to quote

359
00:20:14,039 --> 00:20:18,119
Joe Biden. Now, okay, I guess did Joe Biden actually

360
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,359
give us that quote or was it a stunt double?

361
00:20:21,079 --> 00:20:23,799
Even if only parts of Robert's account are true, she

362
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,000
is still a person who suffered and deserves sympathy. Oh yeah,

363
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,720
nice qualifier at the end there, Ian Maxwell. But that

364
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,680
cannot excuse the fact that she accused innocent people of

365
00:20:33,759 --> 00:20:38,640
serious crimes and destroyed reputations and lives. Her claims, like anyone's,

366
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,319
must be carefully vetted to approach this book with the

367
00:20:41,319 --> 00:20:45,480
assumption that she is telling the truth necessarily means imposing

368
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,720
a presumption of guilt on everyone she is accused of

369
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,200
sexual assault, placing the burden on them to prove their innocence.

370
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,880
This is contrary to all the principles of natural justice.

371
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,319
Every single one of them, for the most part, has

372
00:20:58,359 --> 00:20:59,920
ponied up money.

373
00:21:00,079 --> 00:21:00,839
Speaker 2: What do you even mean.

374
00:21:01,039 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 1: Brunel ended up getting arrested, Glenn Dubin ponied up money,

375
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,880
Leon Black ponied up money. Just Daley ponied up money.

376
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,599
Prince Andrew ponied up money. Your sister sitting in prison,

377
00:21:13,799 --> 00:21:16,319
Jeffrey Epstein was arrested for his crimes. What are you

378
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:20,039
even talking about right now? Because if there was any

379
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,640
natural justice in the world, your sister wouldn't be looking

380
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,599
at twenty years, she'd be looking at a life sentence.

381
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,440
So let's just call this bullshit. What it is a

382
00:21:29,519 --> 00:21:32,359
brother that's swinging blindly in defense of a fallen empire,

383
00:21:32,599 --> 00:21:34,839
a man so desperate to protect what's left of the

384
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,359
family name that he's willing to drag a dead woman

385
00:21:37,559 --> 00:21:40,079
through the mud just to keep pretending that his sister

386
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,559
was misunderstood. Instead of monstrous, you want to talk about

387
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,319
natural justice. Natural justice is watching the powerful finally answer

388
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,559
for what they did. It's survivors refusing to shut up

389
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:54,079
no matter how many smug columns get printed to gaslight them.

390
00:21:54,519 --> 00:21:58,079
It's the truth outlasting money, titles and bloodlines, because no

391
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,759
matter how many essays you write, no matter how many

392
00:22:00,759 --> 00:22:03,720
deflections you print, no matter how many times you twist

393
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,720
the narrative, the world remembers what your sister did, So

394
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,680
spare us the moral theater. The Maxwells had their chance

395
00:22:10,759 --> 00:22:13,319
to tell the truth, and they chose to lie. Virginia

396
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,400
told hers and paid for it with her peace, her sanity,

397
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,880
and in the end, her life. That's something no family

398
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:23,160
of privilege could ever understand. And when it's all said

399
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,440
and done, when history looks back at this whole sordid mess,

400
00:22:27,519 --> 00:22:30,519
it won't remember the pompous columns or the spin. It'll

401
00:22:30,559 --> 00:22:34,839
remember who prayed, who enabled, who covered, and who spoke up. Anyway,

402
00:22:35,519 --> 00:22:39,400
so take your selective outrage, your crocodile tears for due process,

403
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,720
your tired revisionism, and shove it right next to your

404
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:47,000
sister's rolodex of monsters. Because justice is I'm played anymore.

405
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,519
It's pissed off, wide awake, and it's coming for every

406
00:22:50,599 --> 00:22:53,119
last one of you who thought power could buy redemption.

407
