Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testified before a congressional committee investigating Jeffrey Epstein, asserting that she had no knowledge of his criminal activities. Clinton’s testimony was conducted behind closed doors, lasting several hours.
In a statement shared on social media, Clinton emphasized, “I had no idea about their criminal conduct,” referring to Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell. She added, “I do not recall ever meeting Epstein. I never flew on his plane or visited his island, homes, or offices. I have nothing more to add to this.”
Clinton also urged the committee to summon current U.S. President Donald Trump for questioning, citing his name’s repeated appearance in Epstein’s files.
Her testimony was abruptly interrupted due to the leak of a photograph from the closed session, taken by Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert. Democrats on the committee condemned the release as a breach of protocol. Boebert claimed the photo was taken before the testimony began and sent it to a conservative blogger.
Both Hillary and Bill Clinton have agreed to provide testimony in the ongoing investigation into Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial on charges of sex trafficking minors. The case has gained renewed political significance in the U.S., especially with emerging evidence suggesting close ties between Epstein and Trump, which Trump has publicly denied.
Recently, during the Grammy Awards, host Trevor Noah mocked Trump over his associations with both Epstein and Bill Clinton.
Newly released documents related to Epstein’s case indicate he had access to sensitive discussions regarding British government policy during a critical period of the global financial crisis.
As the investigation unfolds, the scrutiny surrounding Epstein’s connections continues to raise questions about accountability and transparency among high-profile figures.
