How did Epstein accumulate his money, power and access — and what happened to the financial and technological network around him after his death?
— September 26, 2026

Cliff Schecter and investigative researcher Kait Justice are back for a new EPSTEIN UPDATE, digging into the latest developments in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation — and a year of reporting that's taken Kait places she never expected. Kait began with a basic question: How did Epstein accumulate his money, power and access — and what happened to the financial and technological network around him after his death?

Following that trail took her through Leslie Wexner, JPMorgan and Deutsche Bank; Epstein-linked companies dealing with enormous quantities of personal and financial data; investments involving artificial intelligence, genetics and digital currency; and business relationships involving figures who remain influential today.

This week, at least seemed like another major step forward: federal prosecutors opened an investigation into Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn, the longtime lawyer and accountant who ran Jeffrey Epstein's estate and two men most likely to know where the money went. Kait Justice has spent the year following exactly that kinda trail. So Cliff asked the obvious question: does this Justice Department actually want to find answers?

They answer this question and more which you can watch the rest of and read more about at BAM!
