The “List” Drops And Big Names

SPEAKER_04

Epstein's list came out. So I tell you know, Jay was really ready for this one, man. And um as you know, Epstein was allegedly, allegedly killed himself in prison after being convicted of sex trafficking. I believe it's like pedophilia, all you know, we all know the story. But the thing was is that everybody wanted to know who was on this list that went to Epstein Island. And so, you know, I'm quite sure you brothers seen the list. Like the most notable ones that we all probably know, uh, we're looking at who uh Chris Tucker, which, you know, surprised me, but Chris Tucker actually gave an excuse for being on that plane. He said it was during the time he was doing his humanitarian work.

SPEAKER_00

Um, that sounds good.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, he says doing his humanitarian work with Bill Clinton. Uh we got Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Sarah Ferguson, which is the Duchess of York. Um who we got out, Sarah.

So I mean Yeah, Tom Hanks, all the actors, all the actors and actresses that recently died from some unexplained causes, they also was on the original list.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, yeah. Well, we'll talk about the original list, man. Because I know you were saying that list was out like three years ago, you said.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, so uh about 2019, like right before the pandemic, the list came out. And it it, like I said, it was the names that was on there is all the names that you know from Jay-Z Beyoncé to Bill Clinton and um and uh his wife. Uh, what's her name? Hillary. Hillary. Hillary.

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_00

So so for now, for they to come out with this doctor list, it's like, why are you keeping these other names off there? We all know who's on there.

SPEAKER_04

Well, they're also on the list, too. They also say that it's people who were um considered participants and those that were like affiliates, I believe the term that they use. So the participants are the ones that actually engaged in any act that Epstein and just was it just Lenny Maxwell set up, and then they have people who are affiliates who didn't participate but might have been on the plane or have been to the island. So, for instance, um they talked about um was it Stephen Hawkins, allegedly was a part of an orgy, but he's Stephen Hawkins.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_03

Oh, yeah. Yeah, he was trying to get some dude drunk. The stuff we used to do to the chicks, get chicks drunk. Niggas around go around getting busy. Come on, man. Slipping a Mickey's dude's drink.

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_00

But yeah, man, so these are all acon, Al Gore. Wow.

Who Knew What And Why Go There

SPEAKER_04

I'm sorry, did you say Akon? Did you say Akon?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, Akon. The rapper. Well, you know, okay. Akon. Well, let me ask let me ask you about this list. Is it just a list of people that he associated with, or is this supposed to be a list of people he had to sex with in some type of way?

SPEAKER_04

Well, that's the thing, is like it has to be determined which ones were participants in the actions and which ones were just affiliates of his. So they didn't know.

SPEAKER_03

So how would they find that out? Do he have check marks or something about those?

SPEAKER_04

Well, no, like the guy like they talk about Prince Andrew. Prince Andrew was a participant because the victims spoke out and said there were certain people who you know they would have the girls do things with or to. And um, you know, those would be the ones, like for instance, you said Michael Jackson, she was asked to give Michael Jackson a massage, but I think Michael Jackson from the story was like not into it or something that of that nature. Like he didn't he didn't do it. So it was certain people who were a part of this thing.

SPEAKER_01

In the words of P. Diddy, uh he wanted to party, but he didn't want to party party.

SPEAKER_00

This is my thing though, right? Being being being being somebody that's this this uh this real affluent and rich and all the wealthy and all that, they they all know what's going on at that island. So if you come there, you want to participate. Because there's no reason to come there if you're not in, if you're not down. You would just stay home.

SPEAKER_03

They got all that kind of money, they don't need to go and get where the bunch of people like that just do that.

SPEAKER_00

They just take their money and uh get a midget, whatever they're trying to get, and do they say they like they they got a lot of other interests besides besides the midgets.

Legal Lines: NDAs, Crimes, And Consent

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but he's a white P. Diddy, so you know I mean, yeah. When they come to that party, they know it's gonna be uh the bells and whistles and everything like that. But again, like I said, I don't believe everybody went there to to get it on. You know what I mean? I think so.

SPEAKER_00

I don't think so either. I do. I I don't see no other reason to go there.

SPEAKER_04

Well, I I can't say that because I'm looking at this list um that you that you know you forwarded over to me. I'm like a lot of people. I don't know. I don't want to say this one did that or whatever for the purpose of this show. I don't get Tash Kid up here and get sued. But yeah, I mean it's a lot of it's a lot of people on here that you look at. Like they got like Drew Barrymore and you know I mean George Clooney.

SPEAKER_01

So I mean it depends on if these people are like the a lot of people a lot of people I believe probably probably participated. Yeah, you know what I mean. But uh on the other side of it, I think other people went there and was like, I ain't know I stepped into this.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, right, right, right, right. Yeah, I I I think before you got that invite to that island, that private island, you already you already been cleared, you know what's going on over here.

SPEAKER_04

All right, so you think you had to be in a certain financial range, even absolutely, absolutely sound of freedom type of deal, where it's like yo, you gotta have a certain amount of money to get up on this thing.

SPEAKER_01

They're on blue wall.

SPEAKER_04

But it's a sick thing. And I mean, I knew like when he allegedly killed himself, you know, by hanging himself in prison where guards walking. Yeah, you know what I mean. Yeah, he knew too much. Something was coming out, and that's that's what that is, is that I never brought I'm surprised that the uh lady is still alive. Uh Maxwell.

SPEAKER_03

You know what I mean? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm surprised she's still on it. For now. For now. For now. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Well, the reason why um Chicago is saying, the word is she's the one that gave the list up. Ah.

SPEAKER_04

Well, at this rate, I mean, why not? You're on the prison anyway. Or you're in prison.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, word is that she's the one that gave the list up, so that's the reason why she's still alive. But you know, at the end of the day, can we do we really know if she is or not?

SPEAKER_04

I'll tell you what, you know how waiting to give a list up is R. Kelly. He's already in prison. This is the thing though, right?

SPEAKER_00

Didn't R. Kelly have people sign NDAs? So ain't that illegal for them to go back and say, hey, you did this when somebody actually signed their rights over not to press charge?

SPEAKER_04

No, no, because the purpose of a crime criminal investigation. I think that NDA goes out the window.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it's a crime, so they can't hold it? Yeah, it's a crime. It's a crime. You can't you can't give an you can't give an NDA to a 13-year-old.

SPEAKER_00

You don't mean that you you raping or something like that. Yeah, man. No, but then but then that that goes again with the Bill Cosby thing. They said they he had he had NDAs. But he had grown people. He was dealing with grown people, though. But but if a crime, a crime is a crime, right?

States, Prosecution, And Victim Cooperation

SPEAKER_01

Well, I don't think Bill Cosby actually had a he don't have he didn't have a rape charge. I mean, technically speaking, I believe that they was he he never been he wasn't convicted of a rape charge initially, the first one that he did. So he took an NDA on that. They they settled out of court on that. But uh, I think the new thing maybe he, I don't know, he the one that he convicted of, maybe they could have done something with that. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, but that's what they said. They said that he was convicted of like sexual assault. Well, remember remember based upon the testimony of that closed NDA case.

SPEAKER_01

But that was a civil situation. That's why they ended up getting money. They didn't actually, they didn't actually, he wasn't convicted of it. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00

I thought they used those those transcripts or whatever that was said in that closed proceeding against him when they convicted him of the sexual assault.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, the latest one?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, yeah, probably. Well the one that he the one that he went to prison for.

SPEAKER_04

Well, this is what this is what I just pulled up, guys. So generally speaking, no and no type of NDA can prohibit a person from reporting a crime. So courts have found that an NDA that attempts to bar someone from reporting a crime is against public policy. So for example, an NDA that gives you one million in exchange for promising to keep quiet about a murder is clearly void as it's against public policy to cover up the murder. So it says, but however, the law is a little less clear when a sexual harassment and similar crimes don't rise to the level of criminal behavior. So I guess it has to be to the point where you know I I guess it would be. I'm I guess it would be um null and void if it's a rape, because that is a criminal.

SPEAKER_01

It's just like uh was it Michael Irv Michael Irvin in them had like NDAs, like when he was um having sex with women and whatever, whatever. And you know, as long as it's consenting and it was a consenting situation, I guess the NDA stands up.

SPEAKER_04

But if a person reports it as a rape, a brutal rape or whatever the case is, then it's a different ballgame.

SPEAKER_03

Different ballgame, yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, so yeah, he can he can give up the good.

SPEAKER_03

But but but why would he say it's rape when you sign this paper saying we better get it all and everything is true? Yeah, yeah, and then later on, no, go ahead and finish.

SPEAKER_00

That's what I'm just saying. That's it.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, because I mean I don't know, because they say if even if you sign, like you said, you sign the NDA and come to find out that you slept with this girl and she was 13 or 14, that's actually a crime.

SPEAKER_01

Well, I mean, you can't do that with the kids anyway, but you're a normal person 13, 14.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

But grown, but but grown people, I guess at the end of the day, I mean, I guess they can always go back to that whole thing that, you know, yeah, I signed off on it, but no means no, or you know, I mean, they could dance with that thing.

SPEAKER_00

You know what I mean? Yeah, but then but then you have situations like Joshua Giddy, where they know that the the the it's a minor, but her parents is not uh, you know, cooperating. So it it but it's still against the law, right? So why why isn't he being brought up on charges?

Inviting Expert Corrections And Close

SPEAKER_01

That has to do with states. Like, I know like in New York, I mean I'm just using this as an example, it's probably far-fetched, but like in New York, if somebody commits a crime against you, they gotta show up to court against you. Like in like in the state of Delaware, if somebody does a crime against you in Delaware, you know, the state will file against you. But in the state, you know, in New York, if the victim don't show up to court, then you know you can beat the case, you know what I mean? So I think maybe that might be the same thing. Yeah. Okay, well, you you can pay somebody not to show up to court in New York.

SPEAKER_04

Threaten them one of the two.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, threatening one of the two, and they might not be able to convict that.

SPEAKER_04

As always, we we just say, like, if you guys out here who's listening to us, if you you know attorneys or know something about it, and we stand to be corrected, you know, it's something that's kind of a murky area. So, you know, if um you have any information, just leave it in our comment section, let us know, and we will happily correct the issue. All right, so let's
