House Oversight Subpoenas Wexner, Epstein Lawyer and Accountant in Expanded Probe

The House Oversight Committee has formally subpoenaed billionaire Les Wexner, Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime financial patron, along with Epstein lawyer Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn to testify about their roles in the convicted sex offender’s network and finances. Ranking Democrat Rep. Robert Garcia said Democrats forced the Republican‑led panel to vote the subpoenas, arguing the three men were identified by survivors as central to understanding how Epstein’s operations were built and run. Court records cited in the piece detail how Indyke and Kahn, now executors of Epstein’s estate, helped set up his U.S. Virgin Islands base and recently settled a civil suit alleging they facilitated sham marriages for abused women to secure immigration benefits. Wexner, who gave Epstein wide latitude over his fortune for years, is scheduled to appear Feb. 18, followed by Kahn on Feb. 25 and Indyke on March 5, while Ghislaine Maxwell is due before the committee Feb. 9 and is expected to invoke the Fifth Amendment. The article notes that despite earlier testimony from figures including former Attorney General Bill Barr and written declarations from Bill and Hillary Clinton, the panel has so far produced little new public information, heightening pressure on these inner‑circle witnesses as public skepticism grows online about whether Congress will expose anything substantive.
