bing news | Epstein accountant and lawyer say federal agents never questioned them

Jeffrey Epstein’s former accountant, Richard Kahn, and former lawyer, Darren Indyke, testified before the House Oversight Committee that federal investigators never interviewed either of them about the financier’s crimes. In closed‑door depositions released on video, both men said they had no knowledge of wrongdoing and that they were never questioned by any government authority regarding Epstein or his associate Ghislaine Maxwell. Kahn emphasized that he “never been questioned by any government authority,” while Indyke replied, “I don’t think I was” when asked if law‑enforcement agencies had ever probed his involvement.

Both witnesses expressed remorse for having worked for Epstein. Indyke admitted he “drank the Kool‑Aid at the time” and stayed on after Epstein’s 2008 guilty plea for soliciting a minor, describing his role as merely “transactional” and not personal. Kahn said he remained with Epstein during the financial crisis because he needed to support his family, but later realized that “Epstein continued to abuse hundreds of minors and adults, so I made an improper decision.” Their testimonies highlight the gaps in the Justice Department’s investigation of Epstein’s network.

The disclosures come amid criticism of the Trump administration’s handling of Epstein‑related documents. While about three million pages have been released—many heavily redacted—the Justice Department and FBI claim an “exhaustive review” is complete and refuse to release a comparable number of withheld files, despite bipartisan congressional pressure for full transparency. This limited disclosure has fueled concerns that key evidence and potential accountability for Epstein’s associates remain hidden.
