The Bottom Line

House Oversight released deposition videos showing Epstein's attorney and accountant were never questioned by authorities despite direct knowledge of his operations.

AI Summary

The House Oversight Committee released deposition videos in which Jeffrey Epstein's longtime attorney and accountant testified they were never questioned by authorities about their work for the financier. The two witnesses said they had direct knowledge of Epstein's operations yet escaped scrutiny from law enforcement, raising questions about the scope and rigor of investigations into his criminal enterprise. Their accounts suggest potential gaps in how thoroughly authorities examined Epstein's inner circle and financial dealings during the probe that ultimately led to his arrest and death in custody in 2019. The depositions underscore concerns about whether investigators adequately pursued leads that could have uncovered accomplices or expanded understanding of his abuse network. The release comes as scrutiny of Epstein's associates continues, particularly regarding who may have facilitated or enabled his crimes.

What's Being Done

The House Oversight Committee released the deposition videos; ongoing investigations into networks connected to Epstein continue.
