Overview

  • Hillary Clinton is scheduled to be deposed Thursday and Bill Clinton Friday in private sessions under House Oversight Committee subpoenas.
  • Committee leaders moved toward holding the pair in contempt after earlier postponements, and some Democrats supported advancing the effort.
  • Neither Clinton has been accused or charged in connection with Epstein, though records show Bill Clinton traveled on Epstein’s jet and appears in recently released photos with Ghislaine Maxwell.
  • The Clintons deny wrongdoing and have urged public proceedings, while the committee is proceeding with closed depositions.
  • Ghislaine Maxwell refused to answer questions in a Feb. 9 virtual deposition by invoking the Fifth, Lex Wexner was questioned on Feb. 18, and additional depositions of Richard Kahn and Darren Indyke are set for March.
