This series gets random shout outs all over the place. It's going to end up being the authoritative piece on Epstein.

Should splice in stuff from unraveling 15: Devil moves in crowds, to show how far back the same evil has existed (800 children, Louis XIV, etc.).

Goes back further than all that. Look up what Tiberius got up to on Capri.

If Epstein was providing money laundering and blackmail service to intelligence agencies their need for those services didn't go away when he did. So, who is today's Epstein? It's sobering to think that there are high level government employees, likely many elected in congress (especially in the intelligence oversight committees) and probably a few rank and file agents in the three letter agencies who know and are complicit with (and participate in?) the systematic rape and trafficking of our children and it is literally happening today. It hurts to think about it.

Your tax dollars at work! It'd be naive to think Epstein was the only guy doing the job. And that's why I don't think they actually killed him, the other ones would get to thinking. One of the best avatars I've ever seen was Jose Epsteino. Picture was Epstein with a Zapata stache and a Turd Ferguson sombrero.

Organized crime and coverups will always be around. To counter it, what we really need is organized punishment, like a bunch of covert organized Dexters. The justice system continually proves itself to administer anything but.

Your succinct conclusion -- changing the way we think about sex with minors-- absolutely captures the core problem. It's a cancer that has spread somehow, some way, into the highest echelons of government and society. When an adult accuses someone of sexual assault, the media typically has a field day, i.e. “me too.” But child sexual assault allegations are almost always given disproportionately less media attention, if not ignored or completely covered up (unless it is someone who has fallen out of the good graces of the powerful…i.e. Jacko!”

It seems there is a campaign going on to desensitize all of us to pedophilia. This even presents in the “scholarly” form, researchers at universities actually devote their careers to the subject. For instance, just 3 months ago the American Sociological Association published an article entitled , “Childhood Sexualities: Pleasures and Meanings from the Margins.” The margins. Because-- yep-- you guessed it, the white man forced the idea that sexualizatuon of children was wrong. The authors state, “What is clear is that the notion of Childhood sexual innocence is not a natural construct. It is a colonial fiction that has long erased the very thought of putting childhood and sexualitiy together. “ Well, shit. That says it all right there, doesn't it? One of the authors is a proponent for the decriminalization of sex with “consenting 12 year olds .”

This isn't a secret. This is published “research” and can easily be googled. I have been asking myself over and over in the past couple of years, what kind of world have we become that people are now publicly stating they believe sexualizing children is okay? What the hell has happened to mankind ? How do I live in a country-- how is it that in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA-- there are actual people who will take up the cause-- without shame-- to advocate for the ‘rights” of “MAPS” , contending their sickness is just another sexualitiy on the ever- evolving list of possibilities? Will it soon be one of the selections when filling out paperwork--Straight? Gay? MAP? On the lgbtq flag (not just a rainbow but several other shapes/ colors) one of the pieces stands for pedophiles. I don't know if most people are aware of this. This flag is displayed frequently in schools, residences, government buildings, and businesses small and large. I wonder how the lgbtq community feels about this in general. Should any sexually deviant group soon get their own piece of the flag?? Is every pervert just misunderstood? Why choose this cause, this hill to die on??

There exists nothing more evil than the abuse of a child, period. It is obvious by now there are people this evil in top positions of all sectors of power. But they cannot successfully perpetrate without the complacency of their peers. I agree as you say these are highly sophisticated and secretive groups. I also know that it's impossible there aren't more or less “normal” people who have knowledge and remain silent. I know all the reasons people stay quiet. But the only hope for change is if a large enough group of those with knowledge come together strategically and organize an unveiling backed by irrefutable evidence. I don't know if that is possible, but I know someone has to try.

“ The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”

Going to be hard now that you got smeared to hell and back after your Tucker and Dave Smith interviews. Hopefully some brave filmmaker will help make multiple documentary series with you and you can release it on rumble. Love your work!

That was EXACTLY WHY he got smeared. The smear was planned in advance. The truth that Darryl shares is NOT appreciated by some.

Amazing piece of work. I'm not sure how you can do the research for these and not jump out of your skin. Demons are real.

“These people aren’t like your or me…” yet we (I unfortunately include myself in this) continue to vote them into office. Ostensibly we could vote better people in but it always seems like it’s a choice between bad (probably not a strong enough word) options. How do we fix that?

Unfortunately the higher someone rises in power the more the system either works for them or against them.

We are left with the people the system has chosen to be there.

Really not much of a choose for us.

If you think the electoral process can change anything, look no further than Bernie Sanders. Or hell, Ross Perot.

Thanks for putting this together. You're right, there is so much to this story that can't be and should not be ignored. The lack of accountability on the part of our "elites" is unbearable.

Non sequitur. Had an idea for the unravelling podcast. I'd like to hear from you and Jocko and relevant mil spouses about what the last 20 years of raising kids with husbands in and out and in danger was like. Interested in this as I found this, not the mission, to be the most challenging part of military life.

Again such an epic job pulling together a twisted knot of nefarious characters and dirty tricksters … the final paragraph says it all … these creeps deserve jail not our public faith after a well documented track record of abusing little kids. So well done and finally a long deserved spotlight on some real pieces of trash!!!

Brilliant series, can't thank you enough for putting it together.

Any recommendations for books on Robert Maxwell? The few I've found online seem to cover his media mogul days but not so much the war and espionage
