Files Allege Jeffrey Epstein Spent Time Living with Pope John Paul II in Vatican

2003: Jeffrey Epstein & Ghislaine Maxwell with Pope John Paul II at the Vatican

It’s not surprising that the Vatican shows up in the Epstein files since Epstein kept tabs on every powerful entity on the planet. But one email claims Epstein actually lived in the Vatican with Pope John Paul II at some point.

An email from Brandon Thompson, who appeared to be a contractor working on refinishing and lime-washing columns in one of Epstein’s homes, outlined the intricacies of the project to Richard Kahn at HBRK Associates, Epstein’s accountant.

“He wants me to finish each column different, as when he was living with Pope John Paul the Second in Vatican, he looked at variety of different columns captured in wars,” wrote Thompson. “He told me that every Pope demanded to have a column from every concurred [SIC] country, so there is a collection of different columns in Vatican.”

Of course there is no proof that Epstein lived with the Pope, although he and Ghislaine Maxwell visited with him in 2003 during a public audience. Just how intimate Epstein was with the Vatican is unknown, but in 2011 he claimed to have nearly possessed the Codex Vaticanus, one of the oldest and most important Church relics containing a majority of the Greek Old Testament and the majority of the New Testament. The Codex was famously seized by Napoleon in 1799 as a war trophy but was returned to the Vatican Library in 1815.

In an email to Boris Nikolic, who was a science advisor to the Bill Gates Foundation at the time and a close Epstein confidante, Epstein wrote, “I forgot to mention to Bill, that one of the first almost interactions with him was when I was the underbidder for the codex…The auctioneers told me that i shold drop out because if i owned them, no one would ever see them and they really should be in semi public hands.. I later had to settle for a present from the vatican of a special edition.”

One of the most revealing emails about Epstein’s alleged ties to the Vatican is a 2013 correspondence with Larry Summers, former U.S. Treasury Secretary under President Bill Clinton, former Harvard President and former chief economist at the World Bank. Epstein writes, “The most important change in the Vatican may not be Pope Benedict XVI sudden retirement but the change in leadership at ‘the Institute for Works of Religion,’ the Vatican’s bank. Because of the Vatican’s status as a sovereign country, it is exempt from transparency rules of not only Italy— but of the European Union. This status allows its elite clients to evade any scrutiny in their money transfers.” 

“Last May,” continued Epstein. “Vatican Bank President Ettore Gotti Tedeschi was fired after Italian authorities opened an investigation into a far flung bribery scheme in which he was allegedly involved. Then 47 dossiers, including compromising about “internal enemies” of his in the Vatican were found in a search of his home. They had instructions how they were used in case something happened to him. Tcdeschi’s intercepted calls futhcr revealed that his concern was that he would be assassinated because he knoew the Vatican’s secrets. By late 2012, he was cooperating with the ongoing Italian investigation, It was at this point that the all-powerful College of Cardinals, in one of the last acts in the Benedict papacy, appointed German lawyer Ernst von Freyberg as President of the bank. The came the extraordinary resignation of Pope Benedict.”

Freyberg had a short tenure as Vatican Bank president. He was named in June 2012 as an interim leader, then appointed president in February of 2013. Von Freyberg quickly began to open up the bank and adopted a zero-tolerance approach to suspicious activities, advocating transparency. He was dismissed in July along with the Vatican Bank’s entire senior management team as part of extensive reforms to the Catholic Church’s central government.

Jean-Baptiste Douville de Franssu has been chairman of Vatican Bank’s advisory board since July of 2014.

  1. Felt like the writer was speaking directly to someone with my level of curiosity, neither talking down nor showing off, and a stop at modernonlinepurchase kept that comfortable matching going, finding writing that meets you where you are rather than asking you to climb up or stoop down feels great every time it happens.

  2. Reading more of the archives is now on my plan for the weekend, and a stop at levelfrstdm confirmed the archive worth the time, the rare archive worth a dedicated reading session rather than just casual sampling is the rare archive of serious work and this site has clearly produced enough of that work to warrant the deeper exploration.

  3. Беттеры, отзовитесь кто откуда.

    Кому тоже актуально найти проверенное место для игры, жмите на источник, чтобы случайно не потерять контакты мостбет сайт мостбет сайт Лучше обходить стороной забаненные платформы и выбирать надежные зоны. обязательно перешлите этот пост тому, кто тоже сейчас ищет нормальную контору!

  4. Glad to find a site whose links lead somewhere worth going rather than back to itself for SEO juice, and a stop at trustedcorporatebonding kept that generous outbound feel, citing other peoples work with real respect rather than just for ranking signals is a sign of an honest operation worth supporting going forward.

  5. Closed it feeling I had taken something away rather than just consumed something, and a stop at securebusinessbonding extended that taking away feeling, the difference between content I extract value from and content I just pass through is something I track informally and this site is consistently in the value extraction column for me.

  6. Probably going to mention this site in a write up I am working on later this month, and a stop at findsmarteroptions provided more material for that potential mention, content worth referencing in my own published work rather than just personal reading is content with the highest endorsement level and this site has earned that endorsement.

  7. Really liked the calm tone running through the post, no shouting and no urgency forced into the writing, and a look at enterprisepartnershipsolutions kept that quiet confidence going, the kind of voice that makes the reader feel respected rather than yelled at which is depressingly common across most modern blog content these days.

  8. Worth pointing out that the writing reads as confident without being defensive about it, and a look at globalshoppingplace extended that secure tone, content that does not pre emptively argue against imagined critics has a different quality from defensive writing and this site reads as written from a place of real ease.

  9. Came in skeptical and left mostly convinced, that is the highest praise I can offer, and a look at futureorientedretailshop pushed me further in the same direction, content that survives a critical first read is rare and worth recognising because most blog posts crumble under any real scrutiny these days when you actually pay attention closely.

  10. Appreciate the thoughtful approach, the writer clearly took time to make this readable for someone who is not already an expert, and a look at clicktoexplorefutures kept that going nicely, easy on the eyes and easy on the brain which is always a winning combination when reading on a busy day.

  11. Skipped the comments section but might come back to read it, and a stop at collaborativegrowthnetwork hinted at a quality reader community, sites where the comments are worth reading separately from the post are increasingly rare and signal a particular kind of audience that has grown around the editorial vision over time gradually.

  12. Found this through a friend who recommended it and now I see why, and a look at discoverprofessionalinsights only strengthened that recommendation in my own mind, word of mouth still works for content that actually delivers and this site is clearly earning recommendations the old fashioned way through quality rather than marketing.

  13. Most of the time I bounce off similar pages within seconds, and a stop at discovernewgrowthpaths held me longer than I would have predicted, the ability to convert a likely bouncing visitor into an engaged reader is a quality signal and this site has demonstrated that conversion ability across multiple visits where I expected to bounce.

  14. Will be coming back to this for sure, too much good content to absorb in one sitting, and a stop at buildlongtermbusinessvision only added more pages I want to dig through, this site is going onto my regular rotation list because it consistently delivers something worth the visit lately rather than empty filler.

  15. Decent post that improved my afternoon a small amount, and a look at centurionbond added a bit more to that, sometimes the small wins online add up over time and a useful site like this one is the kind of place that contributes consistently to those small wins for me lately across many different topics I follow.

  16. Reading this prompted me to subscribe to my first newsletter in months, and a stop at professionalcollaborationbonds confirmed the subscribe was the right call, content that earns a newsletter signup is content that has cleared a higher trust bar than a casual visit and this site has clearly earned that level of commitment from me.

  17. Solid information that lines up with what I have been hearing from other reliable sources, and after my visit to trustedonlineshoppingcenter I was even more certain of that, this site checks out which is something I value highly when so many places online play loose with the facts to chase a quick click.

  18. Now thinking about how this post will age over the coming years, and a stop at sablefernshop suggested the same durability, content built to age well rather than to capture the attention of the moment is content with a different kind of value and this site has clearly chosen the long horizon over the short one.

  19. Now adding this to a list of sites I want to see flourish, and a stop at learnandadvancehere reinforced that wish, the few sites I actively root for are sites that produce the kind of work I want more of in the world and this one has joined that small list based on what I have read so far.

  20. Picked this up between two other things I was doing and got drawn in completely, and after shopmode my original tasks were completely forgotten for a while, content that derails a workflow in a positive way by being more interesting than what you were already doing is rare and worth recognising clearly.

  21. Слушайте кто хочет гражданство Израиля То переводы неправильные А кто-то вообще не знает с чего начать Короче, реально толковые ребята — получение гражданство израиля в москве без нервов Собеседование прошло гладко В общем, смотрите сами по ссылке — израильское гражданство москва https://grazhdanstvo-izrailya.ru Доверьтесь профессионалам Перешлите тому кто думает о репатриации

  22. My usual response to new bookmarks is to forget them but this one I have already returned to twice, and a look at toptechnewz11 pulled me back a third time, the actual return rate to bookmarked sites is the real measure of value and this one is clearing that measure at a notable rate already.

  23. Reading this post made me realise I had been settling for lower quality elsewhere, and a look at longtermstrategicalliances extended that recalibration, content that exposes how much I had been accepting in adjacent sources is content with calibrating effect on my standards and this site is performing that calibration function across topics for me reliably.

  24. Really appreciate that the writer did not assume I would read every other related post first, and a look at enterprisegrowthpartnerships kept that self contained feel going where each piece can stand alone, accessibility for new readers is a sign of generous editorial thinking and this site has clearly invested in that approach.

  25. Honestly informative, the writer covers the ground without showing off, and a look at globalpartnershipinfrastructure reflected the same humility, content that respects the reader rather than trying to dazzle them is something I always appreciate and rarely come across in this corner of the internet today across the topics I usually read.

  26. Going to come back when I have more time to read carefully, the post deserves more than a quick scan, and a stop at magzineviralzhubz reinforced that, this is the kind of site that rewards a slower read which is hard to find in this fast paced corner of the internet but really worthwhile.

  27. Found this through a search that was generic enough I did not expect quality results, and a look at nextgenonlinebuying continued the surprisingly good experience, search engines occasionally still surface excellent independent content if you scroll past the obvious paid and high authority results which is reassuring to remember sometimes.

  28. Reading this in my last reading slot of the day was a good way to end, and a stop at dailyshoppingexperience provided a satisfying close to the reading session, content that ends a day well rather than agitating it before sleep is the kind I value increasingly and this site fits that role for me consistently now.

  29. A piece that did exactly what it promised in the headline without overshooting or underdelivering, and a look at securebuyingstore continued that calibration, alignment between promise and delivery is a basic editorial virtue that many sites fail at and this site has clearly mastered the matching of expectation and substance throughout pieces.

  30. Reading this prompted me to dig out an old reference book related to the topic, and a stop at reliabledealshoppingplace extended that connection to other sources, content that connects me back to my own existing knowledge rather than asking me to forget it is content with continuity and this site has that continuous quality.

  31. Closed and reopened the tab three times before finally finishing, and a stop at professionalbondsolutions held my attention straight through, sometimes content fights for time against my own distraction and the times it wins say something positive about its quality and this post clearly won that fight today afternoon for me.

  32. Well structured and easy to read, that combination is rarer than people think, and a stop at strategicgrowthalliances confirmed the same standard runs across the rest of the site, definitely the kind of place I will be coming back to when this topic comes up in conversation later again over the weeks ahead.

  33. Now considering writing a longer note about the post somewhere, and a look at learnandimprovecontinuously added more material for that note, content that prompts me to write rather than just consume is content with generative energy and this site is producing that generative effect for me at a higher rate than most sources.

  34. Skipped lunch to finish reading, which says something, and a stop at clicktofindsolutions kept me at my desk longer than planned, when content beats the lunch impulse the writer has done something genuinely impressive in an attention environment full of immediately satisfying alternatives competing for the same finite block of reader time.

  35. Worth saying that the prose reads naturally without straining for style, and a stop at corporatecollaborationnetwork maintained the same unforced quality, writing that achieves elegance without effort is the highest tier and this site has clearly worked out how to land that effortless quality consistently rather than only on the writers best days.

  36. Liked that the post landed without needing to manufacture controversy or take a contrarian stance for attention, and a stop at clicktoexploremarketideas continued that grounded approach, content that earns attention through quality rather than provocation is the kind that builds long term trust rather than burning it on quick wins.

  37. If patience for careful reading is rare these days finding sites that reward it is rarer still, and a stop at longtermcorporateconnections extended that rare reward, the diminishing returns on shallow content reading have made me more selective about where to spend reading time and this site is meeting the higher selectivity bar consistently.

  38. Skipped the related links section thinking I had read enough and then came back to it later when curiosity got the better of me, and a stop at reliablecorporatealliances confirmed I should have just read it first, every section of this site appears to deserve careful attention rather than skipping past lazily.

  39. Здорова, народ Брат снова сорвался Родственники не знают что делать Таблетки не помогают Короче, врачи приехали и поставили систему — вывод из запоя цены доступные Поставили капельницу с детоксикационным раствором В общем, жмите чтобы сохранить — вывод из запоя цена на дому https://lechenie-7so.vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-lnm.ru Вывод из запоя на дому — это реальный выход Перешлите тем кто в такой же ситуации

  40. Bookmark folder created specifically for this site, and a look at learnandgrowprofessionally confirmed the dedicated folder was the right call, dedicated folders for individual sites are a level of organisation I rarely deploy and this site has earned that level of dedicated tracking based on the consistency I have seen so far across sessions.

  41. Now I want to find more sites like this but I suspect they are rare, and a look at everydayonlinepurchase extended that thought, the few sites that meet this quality bar are precious specifically because they are rare and finding others like them is one of the ongoing projects of careful internet curation across the years.

  42. Now noticing that the post did not mention the writer at all, focus stayed on the topic, and a look at sustainablegrowthpartners continued that author absent quality, content that disappears the writer to focus on the substance is a particular kind of generosity and this site has clearly chosen the substance over the personality consistently.
