March 13, 2026 - Washington, D.C. — On Wednesday, Rep. Robert Garcia, Ranking Member of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, released the following statement after Richard Kahn, long-time accountant for Jeffrey Epstein and co-executor of Epstein’s estate, was deposed by the Oversight Committee. Kahn was involved in authorizing payments to Epstein’s victims and managed his operations, even helping to facilitate fraudulent marriages between women trafficked by Epstein.

“Jeffrey Epstein’s massive sex trafficking ring would not have been possible without the consistent payments and services of his long-time accountant Richard Kahn. During his deposition, Kahn made some important admissions: he helped facilitate a fake marriage between two women connected to Epstein, admitted to impersonating Epstein in communication with banks, and confirmed Epstein spoke about Donald Trump ‘a lot.’ It’s not credible that he had no knowledge of Epstein’s activities, and his testimony today only raises more questions. Oversight Democrats won’t stop fighting until we get justice for the survivors and end this White House cover-up,” said Ranking Member Robert Garcia.

The subpoenas for Richard Kahn and Darren Indyke, close associates of Jeffrey Epstein, were issued after successful motions offered by Oversight Democrats and adopted on a bipartisan basis. Richard Kahn’s subpoena can be found here and Darren Indyke’s subpoena can be found here.
