1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,359
Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the

2
00:00:03,359 --> 00:00:08,119
Epstein Chronicles. Without Jean Luke Brunel, there could have never

3
00:00:08,199 --> 00:00:12,240
been Jeffrey Epstein, at least not to the level that

4
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:16,920
we saw. And that's because Jean Luke Brunel was the lynchpin.

5
00:00:17,559 --> 00:00:19,920
He was the guy that was bringing these girls to

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,280
Jeffrey Epstein from all of these far flung locations, whether

7
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,640
it be South America, Eastern Europe, or anywhere in between.

8
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,240
And he was not working alone. So when you see

9
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:37,119
people say that Epstein wasn't involved in human trafficking, they're

10
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,640
lying to you. And that's because, without a shadow of

11
00:00:39,679 --> 00:00:45,039
a doubt, no debate needed, Jean Luke Brunel was providing

12
00:00:45,079 --> 00:00:48,920
girls to Jeffrey Epstein, and Jeffrey Epstein in return, provided

13
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,960
girls back to Jean Luke Brunel. And we literally have

14
00:00:52,119 --> 00:00:57,399
mountains of evidence pointing to this, but for years nobody cared,

15
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,240
nobody wanted to look into it. What about when Brunell

16
00:01:01,479 --> 00:01:04,480
went to the authorities in twenty sixteen said he was

17
00:01:04,519 --> 00:01:07,079
going to snitch on Epstein and then what happened, Oh

18
00:01:07,079 --> 00:01:11,000
that's right, he disappeared, not died, but disappeared off the grid,

19
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,560
no more contact with the authorities, no more talk of

20
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:19,519
flipping on Epstein. So my guess is somebody got to him. Hey,

21
00:01:19,599 --> 00:01:23,599
Jean Luke not a good idea. You know who Jeffrey is,

22
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,799
you know whose people are, and you know the score

23
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,640
something along those lines. But whenever you're talking about Jeffrey

24
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:36,159
Epstein and his human trafficking pipeline, it starts and it

25
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,959
ends with John Luke Brunel. And considering he's been such

26
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,239
a key cog in what Epstein has done over the years,

27
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,200
does it shock you that he quote unquote took his

28
00:01:47,239 --> 00:01:50,159
own life as well behind bars. And look, I've told

29
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,000
you from the beginning that Jean Luke Brunell is the

30
00:01:53,079 --> 00:01:56,280
key to taking down Epstein, not Glenne Maxwell. It was

31
00:01:56,280 --> 00:02:01,079
always Jean Luke Brunel. These two men they were up

32
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,599
to no good and that's putting it lightly. And the

33
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,520
amount of damage caused by Jean lu Brunell, by the

34
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:12,080
people working with them, and by that shitty modeling agency

35
00:02:12,199 --> 00:02:17,800
mc squared is just unbelievable. They were literally bringing these

36
00:02:17,879 --> 00:02:21,479
girls over here, putting them at that building at E

37
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,439
sixty six, and then bringing them to live with Jeffrey

38
00:02:24,439 --> 00:02:28,439
Epstein depending on what he was feeling. And that's not

39
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,240
me telling you again, that's from the merits of Asquez

40
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,840
deposition that she gave in regards to what was going

41
00:02:35,879 --> 00:02:40,560
on when the investigation first kicked off. And even with

42
00:02:40,599 --> 00:02:42,919
all the information that she gave, with all of the

43
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:49,159
corroborating information, nobody moved on Jean lu Brunel. And they

44
00:02:49,159 --> 00:02:52,599
can't say it wasn't on their radar because we just

45
00:02:52,719 --> 00:02:56,599
learned that he was almost a government informant who was

46
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,800
giving information about Jeffrey Epstein. So in this episode, we

47
00:02:59,879 --> 00:03:04,599
have an article from International Business Times and the headline

48
00:03:04,719 --> 00:03:08,960
Epstein files reveal French castles used as sex trafficking sites,

49
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:14,280
while underage models sent to US for exploitation. This article

50
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:19,919
was authored by Chrisnell Longino. A chilling new chapter in

51
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,520
the Epstein saga has emerged as confidential court documents revealed

52
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,599
the scale of abuse orchestrated in France by Jean lu Brunel.

53
00:03:28,759 --> 00:03:32,840
Far from acting alone, Brunel, a close associate of Jeffrey Epstein,

54
00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:37,000
is shown to have run an industrial system of exploitation,

55
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:42,400
transforming luxury castles and apartments into sites of abuse. So

56
00:03:42,479 --> 00:03:44,120
all those people that have been out here for the

57
00:03:44,199 --> 00:03:46,520
last I don't know, a couple of months telling you

58
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,280
that Epstein was a loan operator, just doing this because

59
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,639
he was bored and sick. They've lied to you, and

60
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:59,599
it's disgusting and there's people out here that are dying

61
00:03:59,599 --> 00:04:02,560
on the hill. Oh, Epstein wasn't some kind of human trafficker.

62
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,319
That's all just overblown. But the only thing that's overblown

63
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,639
is all the hot ass air coming out of their mouths,

64
00:04:10,919 --> 00:04:14,159
because there's no doubt that Jeffrey Epstein was not only

65
00:04:14,199 --> 00:04:18,800
providing but receiving traffic girls and I mean luxury castles

66
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:22,480
and apartments into sits of abuse. It's like something right

67
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,879
out of a fucking horror movie. The thirty page judicial order,

68
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:30,199
dating from twenty twenty three and previously unseen, outlines how

69
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:34,360
underage models were systematically exploited and sometimes sent to the

70
00:04:34,439 --> 00:04:38,240
United States for further abuse, raising questions about how such

71
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:43,160
a network could operate with near total impunity. Well not really,

72
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,079
not when you know the deal, not when you know

73
00:04:46,079 --> 00:04:48,639
who was being protected. That was the bone. They threw

74
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,120
him right to be the middleman, to be an asset.

75
00:04:52,399 --> 00:04:55,480
They gave him a little leeway to abuse people. But

76
00:04:55,519 --> 00:04:57,480
they said to him, look, Jeffrey, you got nailed the

77
00:04:57,519 --> 00:04:59,720
first time here. We got you out of it, but

78
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,480
now now you're gonna have to get girls from outside

79
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,040
the United States. We can't have this happen again, and

80
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,959
if it does, we're gonna have to burn you as

81
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,240
an asset. I mean, doesn't that sound more logical than

82
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,160
just the fact that Jeffrey Epstein was a sick bastard

83
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,920
who happened to get lucky and had the government decide

84
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,199
they didn't want to go after them. That makes sense

85
00:05:21,199 --> 00:05:27,519
to anybody out there. The documents reveal a disturbing logistical

86
00:05:27,519 --> 00:05:31,839
operation from grand castles in Normandy to upscale preision apartments.

87
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:38,360
Properties were specifically used to facilitate predation. Testimony describes how

88
00:05:38,439 --> 00:05:42,800
victims were transported to isolated locations where the abuse took place,

89
00:05:43,319 --> 00:05:47,800
often during trip presented as professional modeling assignments, And that

90
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,199
was the theme throughout. They get these girls, bring them

91
00:05:51,199 --> 00:05:55,480
to America, they'd engage in immigration fraud to get them to,

92
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,759
you know, stay here, and then they take their passports

93
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,800
and they'd abuse them. Oh sure they might get a

94
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,399
modeling shoot, but they'll also get some trauma that comes

95
00:06:04,439 --> 00:06:07,480
along with it after they get abused by whichever one

96
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:13,240
of these scumbags happens to be there. One former model

97
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,800
recounted being taken to a small castle and assaulted, describing

98
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:21,399
hidden passageways that allowed Brunel to orchestrate attacks without being seen.

99
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,360
That is some blood and cheese type shit from House

100
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,879
of the Dragon. Imagine this rotten, disgusting fuck sneaking through

101
00:06:28,879 --> 00:06:31,560
some kind of passageway and showing up in your bedroom

102
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:38,879
while you're asleep. These spaces were designed to intimidate, isolate,

103
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:43,000
and control, creating an environment in which Brunell's victims fell

104
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:47,839
trapped and powerless. The judicial file details repeated patterns of

105
00:06:47,879 --> 00:06:54,079
abuse over decades, painting a systematic picture rather than isolated incidents. Well,

106
00:06:54,079 --> 00:06:57,600
that's because they weren't isolated. It was a pattern, It

107
00:06:57,639 --> 00:07:00,120
was an enterprise, and it was all done at the

108
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:05,319
behest of Jeffrey Epstein. Brunell's influence extended beyond property ownership

109
00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:09,279
into the modeling world. Agencies such as Karen Models and

110
00:07:09,439 --> 00:07:13,480
mc squared allegedly served as talent pools where young women's

111
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:18,560
careers were conditioned on submitting to sexual demands. This is

112
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,759
something that I've heard time and time again, and when

113
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,399
I talk about the girls with known names, this is

114
00:07:24,439 --> 00:07:27,839
who I'm talking about, folks. These girls were brought here,

115
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,879
exploited and then sent back or worse, who the fuck knows,

116
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,439
and nobody has any idea who any of them are.

117
00:07:36,279 --> 00:07:39,800
And I find that very very concerning. And just because

118
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,120
somebody is not from my country doesn't mean I'm not

119
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,959
worried about their well being or that they were abused

120
00:07:44,959 --> 00:07:48,759
and taken advantage of, especially if that shit happened inside

121
00:07:48,759 --> 00:07:53,519
of my country. Now it's my problem, and since it's

122
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:57,279
my problem, I'm going to make it their problem. And

123
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,600
until they give us the information that's needed, the problem continues.

124
00:08:03,879 --> 00:08:08,360
Aspiring models were groomed, monitored, and coerced into compliance under

125
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:13,600
the guise of professional advancement. Confiscated passports, ongoing pressure from

126
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:18,519
powerful figures, and a network of international contacts reportedly enabled

127
00:08:18,519 --> 00:08:22,399
Brunel to operate without fear of prosecution. For years. He

128
00:08:22,519 --> 00:08:26,720
was protected by Epstein. Jeffrey's people extended their protection to

129
00:08:26,759 --> 00:08:30,680
Brunell as well. This is not that difficult, folks, Okay,

130
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:35,200
not that difficult at all, especially when you realize that

131
00:08:35,279 --> 00:08:39,399
there's trillions of dollars missing from the Pentagon's budget. Where

132
00:08:39,399 --> 00:08:41,799
do you think that money went? I think it just

133
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,399
disappeared into the air. They're using that shit to run

134
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,279
these black ops that nobody knows about, and that's what

135
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:52,960
Jeffrey Epstein was a CIA black op. Who decided to

136
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,879
run it. Who put it into play? I don't know,

137
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,000
but in my opinion, from everything I've seen, no doubt

138
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,720
in my mind. Brunell's death in La Sente prison in

139
00:09:02,799 --> 00:09:06,759
February of twenty twenty two effectively ended the legal proceedings

140
00:09:06,759 --> 00:09:10,240
against them, but the newly examined court order makes clear

141
00:09:10,519 --> 00:09:14,120
that the closure was administrative rather than a reflection of

142
00:09:14,159 --> 00:09:19,639
the truth. The thirty page dismissal lists numerous witnesses, complaints,

143
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,000
and the ledge accomplices, showing a complex system of abuse

144
00:09:23,279 --> 00:09:26,759
spanning more than four decades. Do you believe that he

145
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:31,200
killed himself Brunel? I have my doubts. Man. You know,

146
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,559
at first I believed it, right. I thought that, you

147
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,000
know what, this guy was up against it and he

148
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,639
just killed himself. But the more I think about it,

149
00:09:38,919 --> 00:09:41,120
the more we go through the information and the more

150
00:09:41,159 --> 00:09:48,240
information that becomes available, the less I'm convinced. Experts and

151
00:09:48,279 --> 00:09:51,440
advocates argue that this abrupt end to the prosecution leaves

152
00:09:51,519 --> 00:09:55,519
unanswered questions about the broader Epstein network in Europe. The

153
00:09:55,559 --> 00:10:00,440
French document corroborates similar findings in the United States, sizing

154
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:04,480
that Brunell's operations were international in scope and not isolated

155
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,919
to Parisian or US locations. Well, who told you that?

156
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,200
Seven years ago? I just happened to talk to people

157
00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:15,720
that knew the dude, and they all told me the

158
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:21,279
same thing. Jean lu Brunel and Jeffrey Epstein were engaging

159
00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:29,080
in an international trafficking ring. Following the release of the

160
00:10:29,159 --> 00:10:32,879
confidential twenty twenty three court order, French authorities have announced

161
00:10:32,879 --> 00:10:36,759
a re examination of the case, signaling that justice may

162
00:10:36,799 --> 00:10:40,279
yet extend be on the fall of a single man. Well,

163
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:44,200
that would be good. Somebody needs to do it. If

164
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,000
the US isn't going to do it, somebody has to

165
00:10:46,039 --> 00:10:49,759
do it. Chase this shit down to wherever it ends.

166
00:10:50,159 --> 00:10:53,879
The investigation seeks to address the infrastructure that allowed exploitation

167
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,639
to become routine, from complicit modeling agencies to high profile

168
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:05,679
international figures implicated by testimony. Judicial sources suggest that revisiting

169
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,799
the case could lead to renewed scrutiny of anyone who

170
00:11:08,919 --> 00:11:13,399
enabled or turned a blind eye to Brunell's actions. Victims

171
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,840
rights groups emphasize that understanding the full network is crucial

172
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:22,480
to preventing future abuses and acknowledging decades of suffering. The

173
00:11:22,519 --> 00:11:26,480
Epstein files, now increasingly public, are thus not only a

174
00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:30,159
record of criminal behavior, but also a call to uncover

175
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,440
the entire system that enabled it. And I think that's

176
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,759
what we need to focus on, because if we uncover

177
00:11:36,879 --> 00:11:39,879
that and we pull that thread, everything else is going

178
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,720
to come into play. And if you really want to

179
00:11:41,759 --> 00:11:44,159
get to the bottom of what was going on with Epstein,

180
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:50,559
Jean Luke Brunell is a fantastic place to start. All
