Insights
1Prince Andrew's Arrest as a Catalyst for US Accountability
The arrest of Prince Andrew in the UK is framed as a critical development because individuals facing such severe charges, especially those who previously felt untouchable, are highly motivated to cooperate with authorities. This cooperation could lead him to disclose information about other powerful, influential, and connected individuals involved in the Epstein network, including those in the US.
Glenn Kirschner, a former prosecutor, states that 'the first thing they're inclined to do is start pointing fingers at other rich, influential, powerful, connected people' (). He adds, 'I would be shocked if Prince Andrew... didn't start talking with the authorities' ().
2Bypassing DOJ Inaction Through State-Level Investigations
Given the perceived unwillingness of the current US Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate Epstein's co-conspirators, state attorneys general in jurisdictions where crimes occurred (e.g., New York, New Mexico, Florida) can initiate their own criminal probes. These state investigations can proceed independently and build substantial cases, even without federal involvement.
The host asks if UK officials could work with state attorneys general like Letitia James in New York (). Glenn Kirschner confirms, 'nothing is to stop state authorities from opening criminal probes provided they have jurisdiction over the crimes' (). He specifically mentions Alvin Bragg's office in New York and investigations in New Mexico and Florida ().
3Future Federal-State Cooperation on Epstein Cases
State-level investigations into Epstein-related crimes can lay the groundwork for future federal prosecutions. Once the US DOJ is perceived as willing to pursue justice without political interference, state prosecutors can share their developed cases and evidence with federal authorities, enabling a seamless transition or concurrent prosecution.
Kirschner explains that federal and state law enforcement cooperate 'all the time' (). He states that an Alvin Bragg state court prosecutor could 'begin to build a case, and then... once the rule of law is again a thing in the Department of Justice... Alvin Bragg could then include the feds in whatever he may have developed' ().
Key Concepts
Cooperating Witness Leverage
When a high-profile individual is arrested and faces severe criminal charges, they are often incentivized to provide information about other, potentially 'bigger fish' to reduce their own legal penalties. This leverage is particularly strong with individuals who have historically felt 'above the law'.
Concurrent Jurisdiction Strategy
In cases where crimes violate both state and federal laws, state prosecutors can initiate and build cases independently, especially when federal authorities are perceived as unwilling to act. These state-level investigations can then be shared or merged with federal efforts once the political or institutional landscape changes, ensuring continuity of justice.
Lessons
- Monitor news from the UK regarding Prince Andrew's legal proceedings for any indications of cooperation or information leaks.
- Watch for any new criminal investigations initiated by state attorneys general in New York, New Mexico, Florida, or other states with known Epstein connections.
- Observe how international law enforcement agencies (e.g., UK, France) are pursuing Epstein-related cases, as their findings could pressure or inform US investigations.
Notable Moments
Glenn Kirschner's immediate reaction to Prince Andrew's arrest was to consider 'cooperating witness land,' highlighting the typical behavior of high-profile individuals facing severe charges.
This sets the stage for the entire discussion, framing the arrest not just as an isolated event but as a potential trigger for broader accountability.
The hosts explicitly criticize the US Department of Justice under Pam Bondi for 'crickets and cover-ups' regarding the Epstein files, contrasting it with actions in other countries.
This establishes the perceived political obstruction at the federal level, justifying the subsequent discussion of state-level workarounds.
The discussion shifts to the viability of state attorneys general initiating investigations and cooperating with foreign authorities, bypassing the federal level.
This offers a concrete, alternative pathway for justice, providing a sense of agency and potential progress despite federal inaction.
Quotes
"When the law comes crashing down on them, like the prince, former Prince Andrews of the world, I can tell you the first thing they're inclined to do is start pointing fingers at other rich, influential, powerful, connected people."
"What we have seen from other civilized countries with legitimate law enforcement agencies, we've seen criminal investigations in France, in the UK, in uh Turkey, in Latvia, in Lithuania, in Poland. They're doing what civilized countries do. They investigate crime when there is some evidence of crime."
"Nothing is to stop state authorities from opening criminal probes provided they have jurisdiction over the crimes."
"95 or 97% of the criminal cases that get tried are tried by state court prosecutors, not federal prosecutors."
