Summary
Marina Lacerda was 14 years old when she was brought into Jeffrey Epstein's world. She saw the photos on his wall. She heard the names. She was there.
Legally designated Minor Victim #1 in the Epstein case, Marina is the reason Jeffrey Epstein took the sweetheart deal. If she had testified, the entire investigation would have moved to New York - and the names on that wall would have come with it.
For nearly 20 years she stayed silent. The FBI came to her door twice. She nearly died hiding it. Then she walked into the United States Capitol and told the truth.
In this episode Marina shares everything - the abuse that started at age 8, how she ended up in Epstein's mansion at 14, the powerful men whose photos lined his walls, why she believes Jeffrey Epstein is still alive, and what she thinks really happened the night the world was told he died.
This is one of the most important conversations we've ever had on this podcast. Not because of the conspiracy. Because of the courage it takes to stand in the face of evil and refuse to stay silent.
Topics covered: Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, Minor Victim #1, sex trafficking, survivor testimony, US Capitol, sweetheart deal, faith and resilience

Knowing Jeffrey Epstein for three years, he would never go down in history as a man that killed himself or allowed somebody to kill him. His ego and his pride is through the roof.
