On this revealing episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, investigative journalist Tara Palmeri joins Angie Sullivan of IHIP News to dive deep into the harrowing world of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Palmeri, who has reported on the Epstein scandal for over a decade, shares chilling insights into Maxwell's abusive upbringing under her narcissistic father Robert Maxwell, her role in procuring and participating in the abuse of young girls, and how she lured vulnerable teens with promises of opportunity.
