Republicans subpoena Epstein estate for ‘client list,’ birthday book, other documents
Republicans on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee are charging ahead with their investigation into the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, issuing a new subpoena on Monday for a slew of documents held by the estate of the infamous sex criminal.
Led by Oversight Chair James Comer (R-Ky.), the Republicans are seeking Epstein’s will; any documents resembling a “client list” related to Epstein’s sex trafficking charges; any “black books” containing Epstein’s contacts; the flight logs from Epstein’s plane and other rented aircraft; and an alleged book of letters from Epstein’s friends commemorating his 50th birthday, among a host of other records.
The birthday book, which was reportedly compiled by Epstein’s longtime associate and girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, includes a letter written by President Trump when he was a private citizen in New York, according to The Wall Street Journal.
“It is our understanding that the Estate of Jeffrey Epstein is in custody and control of documents that may further the Committee’s investigation and legislative goals,” Comer wrote in © The Hill
