Epstein Estate Lawyer Darren Indyke Testifies in House Oversight Probe

The House Oversight Committee is privately questioning Darren Indyke, Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime lawyer and one of two executors of his estate, in a closed‑door session Thursday as part of its expanding probe into Epstein’s network and the Justice Department’s handling of related files. Indyke, described as perhaps Epstein’s closest associate since the 1980s, helped build Epstein’s maze of companies and properties and, along with co‑executor Richard Kahn, appears on paperwork for dozens of entities that routed payments to abuse survivors. Both men recently settled a lawsuit accusing them of facilitating sham marriages between foreign‑born victims and Americans allegedly abused by Epstein for immigration purposes, though Indyke’s attorney insists they never knew of or assisted in Epstein’s sex‑trafficking crimes and notes no victim has accused them of direct abuse or witnessing it. The committee has already heard from Kahn, who drew scrutiny for inconsistent statements about a purported settlement with a woman accusing both Epstein and Donald Trump, as well as from figures such as Bill Clinton, Ghislaine Maxwell (who took the Fifth) and billionaire patron Les Wexner, who claims he was "duped by a world‑class con man." Chair James Comer says Kahn confirmed five major Epstein clients — Wexner, Glenn Dubin, Steven Sinofsky, the Rothschilds and Leon Black, who will be deposed "very soon" — and has now subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi for testimony on DOJ’s handling of millions of Epstein‑related documents, fueling public demands for fuller disclosure and accountability.
