Executive summary

Lisa Noelle Voldeng has publicly released multi‑hour audio recordings of a man identified as Sascha (Sasha) Riley on her Substack and has repeatedly said she shared materials and contacts with officials and advocates, but independent reporting does not show verifiable, corroborated evidence that she provided physical or separately verifiable documentary evidence to law enforcement or independent journalists beyond the Substack audio itself [1] [2] [3].

1. What Voldeng has publicly produced: the Substack audio and its scope

Voldeng published un‑redacted audio recordings on her Substack described by her as “over four hours of audio testimony” attributed to Sascha Riley and framed as firsthand accounts linked to the Epstein/associated networks; these recordings are the core material that circulated widely online after she posted them [1] [4] [5].

2. Claims about sharing materials with authorities and others

In her own Substack posts Voldeng says she “selectively contacted allies, church, police, and government officials in various countries” and has written that she provided audio plus “a list of corroborative evidence to obtain and some initial supporting evidence” to domestic and international contacts, including a post saying she contacted the House Office for the Care of the Disappeared Office (HOCDO?), Senator Ron Wyden’s office, and others several months earlier [3] [2].

3. What law enforcement records and independent reporting actually show

Reporting notes that Sascha Riley “provided a deposition to Oklahoma police several years ago” and that Oklahoma police referred the matter to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI), with a claim in Voldeng’s Substack that OSBI “hasn’t followed up” — but mainstream outlets reporting on the viral audio describe the tapes and the claims as unverified and do not document a chain of custody or show independent verification that files or evidence beyond the Substack uploads were received and acted on by investigators [2] [6] [3] [5].

4. Gaps between Voldeng’s assertions and independent verification

The public record assembled by news outlets reproducing Voldeng’s statements documents what she says she did (contacting officials, sharing materials) and what she released (the audio), but those same reports uniformly flag the allegations as unverified and do not report confirmed delivery or analysis by law enforcement or independent journalists of non‑audio corroborating evidence referenced by Voldeng, creating an evidentiary gap between her claims and independently confirmed, verifiable submissions [3] [6] [5] [2].

5. Alternative explanations and potential agendas to consider

Independent coverage emphasizes that the tapes and associated accusations remain unverified; some outlets focus on the possible motives of amplification — including the attention dynamics of Substack virality and political consequences of naming high‑profile figures — while noting that Voldeng is a prominent Substack creator whose publications have driven the narrative by releasing material directly to the public rather than through traditional reporter‑led chains of custody [6] [3].

6. Plain answer to the question

Based on available reporting, Lisa Noelle Voldeng has publicly provided audio recordings on Substack and has stated that she contacted law enforcement, congressional offices and other officials and supplied a list of corroborative items, but independent reporting has not corroborated that investigators or independent journalists received or reviewed additional physical or documentary evidence from her beyond the Substack audio; the claim of further submissions rests on Voldeng’s own statements in her posts [1] [2] [3].

7. What would close the gap and what to watch next

Verification would require law enforcement or independent news organizations to confirm receipt and forensic review of records or materials Voldeng says she provided, or to publish subpoenas, intake receipts, or investigative actions tied to those materials; absent such confirmations, the public record remains composed of her published audio and her stated outreach to officials, with major outlets continuing to treat the broader allegations as unverified [2] [6] [3].
