Federal Authorities Investigate 2 Jeffrey Epstein Estate Executors Over Their Activities

3 articles · Updated · The New York Times · Sep 24

Summary

  • Manhattan federal authorities have opened an inquiry into Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime lawyer Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn, two people familiar with the matter said.
  • FBI agents and New York federal prosecutors are involved, but the exact focus of the investigation remains unclear.
  • Indyke and Kahn, who serve as executors of Epstein’s once-vast estate, have repeatedly denied knowing about his sexual abuse of hundreds of teenage girls and young women.
  • The move follows years of pressure on the Justice Department to scrutinize Epstein associates and fresh calls after millions of emails and financial records were released earlier this year.
