Goldman Sachs Legal Chief to Depart After Epstein File Revelations

Goldman confirmed her June 30 exit after disclosures indicated closer-than-known ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Overview

  • Goldman Sachs said Kathryn Ruemmler will leave the firm on June 30, confirming reports shared with the Financial Times, the New York Times and Bloomberg.
  • Newly released Epstein documents include emails in which Ruemmler used affectionate language, referring to him as “Uncle Jeffrey” and expressing admiration.
  • Records cited in the files indicate she received luxury gifts, including handbags and a fur coat, years after Epstein’s 2008 sex‑crime conviction, and advised him on media matters.
  • The Wall Street Journal reported handwritten FBI notes from the released materials indicating Ruemmler was among those who called Epstein immediately after his 2019 arrest.
  • A spokesperson for Ruemmler said her interactions were purely professional and that she was unaware of Epstein’s crimes, and no criminal charges against her have been reported.
