The House Oversight Committee released deposition videos from two longtime associates of Jeffrey Epstein, offering new insight into his inner circle.
Key Claims from Associates
Attorney Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn told lawmakers they were never questioned by federal authorities about their work with Epstein, despite years of involvement.
Indyke defended his continued role, saying, “I drank the Kool-Aid at the time,” explaining he believed Epstein’s assurances after his 2008 conviction.
Denials and Financial Details
Both men denied knowledge of Epstein’s sex trafficking operation, describing their roles as strictly professional. They said Epstein’s complex finances and heavy cash use—estimated at $25–30 million annually—were typical for his lifestyle.
Ongoing Scrutiny
Lawmakers pressed both men on why they continued working for Epstein amid mounting allegations, as well as their alleged involvement in questionable financial and legal arrangements.
Bottom line: The testimony raises fresh concerns about how closely Epstein’s associates were scrutinized—and what they may have known.
