House Panel: Les Wexner gave Epstein 'about a billion dollars'

[Mr. Sparkle]

Lawmakers questioned Columbus billionaire Les Wexner on Wednesday at his home in New Albany about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, who died in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges. Wexner, the founder of L Brands, is mentioned repeatedly in the Epstein files. A spokesperson said after the deposition that Wexner "honestly answered every question put to him today by the Committee," and reiterated that he "has no knowledge of, and did not participate in, Epstein’s illegal conduct."

Rep. Robert Garcia argued Wexner played a central role in financing Epstein. "There is no single person that was more involved in providing Jeffrey Epstein with the financial support to commit his crimes than Les Wexner," Garcia told reporters. He said survivors have raised concerns about the scale of money transfers connected to Wexner and Epstein.

Garcia pointed to what he described as a billion dollars in value moving to Epstein. "To be very clear, we know that approximately over a billion dollars, it looks like—it's about a billion dollars—that was either transferred, provided in stocks, or given directly to Mr. Epstein by Wexner," he said.

Garcia said Wexner claimed he was unaware of how much money moved between them and was trying to minimize how close the two men were over roughly two decades.

MY boycott has begun! Care to join me?
