Les Wexner claims he was deceived by Epstein Democrats respond to Wexner’s testimony

Les Wexner, former CEO of L Brands, testified to U.S. lawmakers that he felt “duped” by Jeffrey Epstein and denied knowledge of his abuse, calling Epstein a “conman.” He claimed to have severed ties with Epstein in 2007 after discovering his criminal activities and asserted he never condoned his crimes. Democratic lawmakers challenged Wexner’s narrative, citing extensive financial ties to Epstein and questioning his claims of ignorance. Newly released documents show Epstein believed their relationship was mutually beneficial, complicating Wexner’s defense.
