Overview
- Darren Indyke, Epstein’s attorney for about two decades and a co-executor of the estate, testified he “had no knowledge whatsoever” of wrongdoing and described his role as corporate and transactional legal work.
- He denied facilitating alleged same-sex “sham marriages” or structuring cash withdrawals for improper uses, pushing back on claims from civil lawsuits and bank-compliance findings.
- Republican Chairman James Comer said Indyke was cooperative, while Democrats expressed skepticism, with one lawmaker alleging his sweeping denials could amount to perjury.
- Indyke said he remained with Epstein after the 2008 conviction because Epstein portrayed it as a one-time mistake and showed remorse, according to committee accounts.
- The investigation continues with Democrats seeking more estate documents and clarity on an uncorroborated 2019 allegation involving President Donald Trump, expected release of videotaped depositions, and an April 14 deposition of Attorney General Pam Bondi.
