Maxwell's Shell Game: The Pot & Kettle Files

# Maxwell's Shell Game: The Pot & Kettle Files

**How Ghislaine Maxwell moved millions through a web of LLCs, trusts, and a shell company named after a proverb about hypocrisy**

---

The newly released Epstein files reveal the full architecture of Ghislaine Maxwell's financial shell game - a network of at least seven entities managed by the same two UBS Private Wealth advisors, shuffling millions between accounts while her partner ran a child sex trafficking operation.

And one of those shells? She literally named it **Pot & Kettle LLC**.

The Shell Empire

Documents EFTA00016035 and EFTA00016036 contain a "MAXWELL: Transfer Recap" email from January 27, 2014, showing coordinated transfers between UBS and JPMorgan:

| Entity | UBS Value | JPM Value | Status |

|--------|-----------|-----------|--------|

| Ghislaine Maxwell (personal) | - | $27,047.74 | Completed |

| Ghislaine Maxwell (second account) | - | $3,122,468.82 | In process |

| Max Foundation | $3,517.72 | $3,517.75 | Completed |

| Max Foundation (second) | $17,213.42 | - | In process |

| 116 East 65th Street LLC | $10,731.50 | $30,200+ | In process |

All managed by the same team: **Scott Stackman and Lyle Casriel**, UBS Private Wealth Management.

Pot & Kettle LLC

**EFTA01277379** reveals the UBS account details:

The same advisors. The same bank. A shell company named after the idiom "the pot calling the kettle black" - a phrase about hypocrisy and projection.

**EFTA00022427** shows direct journal transfers from Pot & Kettle to Maxwell's personal accounts:

> "JOURNAL FROM Y1 23679 POT & KETTLE, LLC" - funds moved directly to Ghislaine Maxwell

The Full Network

Seven entities, one advisory team:

1. **Ghislaine Maxwell** (personal accounts) - $3.1M+

2. **116 East 65th Street LLC** - Her NYC townhouse, paying contractors via UBS

3. **Max Foundation** - Charity front

4. **Pot & Kettle LLC** - Miami Beach shell

5. **Terramar Project Inc** - "Ocean conservation" nonprofit (EFTA01276663)

6. **Angara Trust** - Received $14.2M transfer (EFTA01279452)

7. **Montpelier Trust** - Additional trust structure

The $14.2 Million Letter

**EFTA01279452** contains Maxwell's signed authorization to her UBS advisors:

> "Dear Scott and Lyle:

>

> Please use this letter as authorization to transfer **$14,200,000** from account titled Ghislaine Maxwell to account titled **Angara Trust**.

>

> Also, please complete the following transfers:

> Transfer Entire Account Balance (Cash & Securities):

> FROM: Account titled Ghislaine Maxwell

> TO: Account titled Angara Trust"

November 23, 2016 - three years before Epstein's arrest.

The Terramar Front

**EFTA01276663** shows the Terramar Project UBS account - Maxwell's "ocean conservation" charity:

Same address as her personal LLC. Same advisors. The charity that shut down immediately after Epstein's 2019 arrest.

116 East 65th Street LLC

**EFTA00022368** shows this wasn't just a holding company - it had active payroll:

- ACH WITHDRAWAL ADP EEPAY/GARNWC: $1,680.70

- ACH WITHDRAWAL ADP Tax/401k: $802.33

- Checks to William Dailey

- Checks to ADI Enterprises

Staff on payroll. At the same address where victims were trafficked.

The Pattern

Every entity:

- Same two UBS advisors (Stackman/Casriel)

- Same bank (UBS Private Wealth → JPMorgan transfers)

- Same address network (NYC, Miami Beach)

- Interconnected journal transfers

This wasn't wealth management. This was a **money maze** - designed to obscure the source and movement of funds while Maxwell and Epstein operated their trafficking network.

What UBS Knew

UBS Private Wealth Management assigned their advisors to manage:

- A convicted sex offender's partner

- Multiple shell companies at trafficking locations

- A charity that existed only on paper

- Trusts receiving eight-figure transfers

The same compliance failures that led to JPMorgan's $290M settlement and Deutsche Bank's $150M settlement.

**Did Scott Stackman and Lyle Casriel ever file a Suspicious Activity Report?**

The files don't say. But the pattern speaks for itself.
