House Oversight Chairman James Comer said Wednesday that Jeffrey Epstein’s long-time accountant Richard Kahn testified to his panel that he never saw a transaction between Epstein and President Donald Trump.Kahn was Epstein’s accountant for more than 10 years and became an executor of his estate after his death, CBS News reported. Kahn was one of Epstein’s closest associates in his final years, as he managed the disgraced financier’s investments, finances and other matters, such as renovations on his private island.
Comer said Kahn did not see any interactions with Trump or his family but that Epstein was a financial adviser for ex-Victoria’s Secret CEO Les Wexner, hedge fund manager Glenn Dubin, businessman Steven Sinofsky, the Rothschilds and investor Leon Black. Kahn said he saw large transactions with those five clients.
“Mr. Kahn testified under oath that — because the Democrats asked this question — that he had never seen any type of transaction to Trump or anyone in his family,” Comer told reporters. “That makes the fifth witness now that’s testified under oath that they’ve never seen any involvement by Donald Trump or the family.”
Comer previously claimed that former President Bill Clinton, former Attorney General William Barr and former Labor Secretary Alex Acosta have also said they have seen no evidence linking Trump to Epstein’s criminal activities.
