In this episode of Beyond The Campaign, Michelle Glogovac speaks with attorney Arick Fudali, who represents eleven survivors of Jeffrey Epstein. The conversation unpacks the ongoing legal fight for accountability, the confusion and controversy surrounding the Epstein files, and what the public often misunderstands about sex trafficking.
Fudali explains how trafficking laws actually work, why manipulation and coercion are central to these cases, and how Epstein was able to exploit vulnerable young women while maintaining powerful connections. The discussion also addresses the broader systemic failures that allowed the abuse to continue and the troubling perception that a different set of rules can apply to the powerful.
At the heart of the episode is the importance of centering survivor voices and continuing to demand transparency and justice. Michelle and Fudali discuss what accountability could look like moving forward and why public awareness and civic pressure still matter in cases like this.
