In this special edition of the Ask Mo Anything (AMA) Mo News Premium Podcast, reporter and author, Vicky Ward, joined us last week for a wide-ranging conversation about all things Epstein files. AMA podcasts typically are only available to Mo New Premium members, but given the high interest in this topic, we are making this episode available to everyone.

She shared her experience first covering Jeffrey Epstein in 2002, before there were any allegations against him regarding child abuse or sex trafficking. She explains how he not only manipulated young women, but also wealthy men interested in his vast network of millionaires – none of which she believes can plausibly deny knowing what Epstein was up to. She also reveals how Vanity Fair blocked her from reporting on the sexual abuse 20 years ago.

Ward also talks about what’s missing from the latest Department of Justice document leaks, whether President Trump is hiding anything, and why it’s unlikely Epstein was working for the CIA or Mossad (as theories have suggested).
