Brad Edwards, an attorney for several #Epstein accusers, has said he had not seen information showing #LesWexner was in Epstein’s company at the time of his crimes.
When Epstein was indicted for a second time in 2019, federal prosecutors tried to get their arms around Epstein’s finances—including his dealings with Wexner. Authorities identified him as a key person they wanted to interview & subpoenaed him along with a slew of other Epstein associates, acc/to documents.

An email shows a federal prosecutor stated investigators were “interested in knowing about his relationship with #Epstein & his knowledge & observations of Epstein with young girls.”
That same year, a victim said that Epstein had sexually assaulted her in #LesWexner’s home in Ohio, acc/to a court affidavit. Wexner’s attys told prosecutors Epstein owned a property about a half mile away & that Wexner’s security team was not aware of any inappropriate incident occurring on the Wexner property.
The #FBI fielded other tips about #LesWexner & #Epstein, the files show. In 2019 a man named Richard Adrian called the FBI & said he served as Wexner’s bodyguard in 1991 & 1992. He described Wexner as “best friends with Epstein,” & said he’d seen “young girls” at Epstein’s Palm Beach home but “assumed they were family.”
“Adrian was told by another bodyguard to keep to yourself & not ask questions,” the memo said.

“Mr. Wexner was never at Epstein’s Palm Beach home in the presence of young girls,” a spox for #LesWexner said.
As the investigation proceeded, Wexner hired Mary Jo White, a fmr federal prosecutor, who met prosecutors along with his other attorneys three weeks after Epstein’s arrest. Wexner’s lawyers denied that he had any knowledge of illegal sexual activity. They also explained the financial history between Wexner & #Epstein, acc/to the internal #DOJ memo.
@Nonilex Here's why I don't believe them
"Wexner’s lawyers denied that he had any knowledge of illegal sexual activity"
If he said that he knew but was not involved, it would be one thing, but to claim ignorance AFTER the guy was sentenced, is quite plainly bullshit
