Epstein Invited to Gatherings With Dozens of Lawmakers After Arrest, Documents Show
Despite Jeffrey Epstein’s 2008 guilty plea and subsequent jail time for sex offenses, documents reveal he received numerous invitations from political insiders for exclusive events and even one-on-one meetings with over a dozen members of Congress. These entreaties came from intermediaries like public relations executives and major donors, seeking to connect Epstein with rising political figures and established lawmakers across various states. While it remains unclear how many of these opportunities Epstein accepted or if the lawmakers were fully aware of the nature of the solicitations, the documents highlight a persistent pursuit of the convicted sex offender by individuals tied to Capitol Hill in the decade before his death.
