As we wander through the Epstein Files [guide and code available here], we are left with a few questions.

How did he get away with it all?

How deep did this thing go?

The answer to those questions are basically the same, because he knew and talked to everyone. And had people everywhere.

This is about two of those people with the same initials: MW.

I started to run across the Skype chats (Jeffrey advised folks use that instead of email starting in 2011)…

…which are a MUCH easier format to consume than email chains where each email is printed out. I noticed some very juicy chats with someone who had the initials MW (they are often redacted, but sometimes not). Also, relative locations are mentioned. In one particular chat those fateful words (“call me”) are followed by a number of un-redacted digits. Those digits and google led directly to the first MW.

Melanie Walker, MD. (seriously, the phone number in the chats is her personal line, this is a 100% hit).

Here is a Facebook video featuring her talking about some of her research and claims.

She is also a member of the World Economic Forum. “Senior Advisor to the President, World Bank”.

This is interesting as we see some of Epstein’s quite blunt advice to her (in Document 907173).

She is also currently a Clinical Professor at UW Medicine.

On to the Skypes. Recall, from our previous explorations, we found that conversations (at least the Skypes) are organized together in the files. So if you have one Document Number, you can search *around* that document for other conversations with the same people. And by downloading them, it becomes easy to move between them in a single folder with a single click.

These are largely from Data Set 10. Here we see document 1612935. This is where we see what makes this relationship interesting. ‘Bg” == Bill Gates (100%). Larry == Larry Summers (I think). Her work at relationships at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation was a big part of her value to Epstein. Recall, Bill Gates was, for most of this period before, the richest man in the world. (from Document ID 1612935).

To say that Epstein was…skeptical…of various other countries in the ME is an understatement. We’ll explore his connection to Israel and Israeli Intelligence in another post, but understand it is a fairly constant theme (we are talking about international politics, billionaire investors, and a pedophile ring based in NYC, after all).

Epstein has something of an obsession with Bill Gates, to be sure. It’s a constant theme of their interactions.

“It’s at my house, so I would know.”

This is an interesting statement. It’s well known (now) that Epstein’s multiple houses were HIGHLY monitored. More on that when we start talking about missing files. Recall, by 2017 when this conversation is happening, it is now two years *after* he had founded a video monitoring/streaming company with Ehud Barak in Israel (2015).

“And snuggles.”

Document 1613169 was the kicker. I won’t link it directly, but you can word search to find it. It’s the 100% connection I mentioned above (location/phone #). Also, there aren’t that many people on the planet who rattle off things like this….

One of the things that is remarkable as we go through the files, Epstein interacted with people (whom basically the rest of us also) considered to be some of the smartest, most accomplished people on the planet. And many of them showed him total deference.

But why? Well…that’s also in the files…. (BTW, that’s Jeffrey’s phone number, often un-redacted in the Skype/iMessage stuff).

“I’ve never veered from my hopes to be rich rich rich.”

That’s it. There’s always a vice (greed) that motivates.

BTW, that doc is juicy as hell for other stuff too (BG == Bill Gates, recall). But we’ve got even better stuff below (before we get to MW #2…) (Document 1613160)

Document 163239 helps answer the question “Why did no one know about all this stuff?”

And we see another curious loophole…

And Voila! The Aristocrats!

So one final juicy nugget I’ve found so far….

This involves some redacted stuff. Starting with Document 1613279 (DS 10).

Luckily, she’s talking to someone who runs a large company specializing in exactly this kind of stuff…so iPods and Skype it is!

And if you’ve made it all the way here….here’s the log (Document 1613283).

So….one final curveball there, right? Alexander? I dunno…this was all grouped with the MW stuff.

Finally, we see this (in Document 1613288).

Almost there, but not quite…

And that’s about where that thread ends for now…

But that’s how you keep stuff out of the press.

Also…own them.

Which brings us to Michael Wolff (the other MW prominently featured in the files).

This section below, BTW, is all bullshit. It takes one email to illustrate that.

Let me share with you one (1) email that completely and utterly destroys this whole argument. (then I’ll share another file that obliterates it for all time and eternity).

The email. (Document 907814, DS 9).

A few things to note…Wolff had just published his book, “Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House” a couple weeks prior and was doing lots of press. SB is Steve Bannon. Bannon, of course, being his source “Inside the Trump White House” as it were. More on that later.

Wolff and Epstein have a long and casual relationship, both using the other for their own ends (Document ID 833294).

Finally, for Wolff, we have an excerpt of his book on Epstein. After all those interview and all that time spent with him (*cough*) we have a profile built.

Available to the public via the DOJ via Document ID 1132579 (and a couple other places*) at 19 single-spaced pages, it’s a drudge to get through and needs some serious editing. However, this is a pretty deep and thorough dive into Epstein’s background, business, and present circumstances.

I’m not a huge fan of Wolff’s writing, but the access is deep and the foreshadowing is solid.

Quite a show indeed. And, at this point, not news to Epstein. He was aware there were some jaws closing in. He was not, as far as I can tell, worried about it.

Wolff also does a pretty good job of laying out the whole conspiracy. Mentioning Maxwell (and her Dad) is also part of this. We’ll get to that in a later past as well.

Weird redaction for something that wasn’t happening…**

Alas, we end on a note of someone who owes the man everything…

And then Gatsby was killed in prison, so the story goes. I think. It’s hard to imagine someone goes from “Tell Bill Gates he *owes* me a call.” to killing themselves with a bedsheet. Indeed, Epstein himself documented his feelings about his first prison term (Document ID 1613696).

And we see how Epstein spent his time in the big house, being punished for his crimes.

So what about Steve Bannon and Jeffrey Epstein? That’s in the next post…and it’s a doozy.

** They have a lot of drafts.

** Without redactions, it looks more like this…(Document ID 1158339)
