Epstein client Leon Black threatened with contempt by House panel chair

“Congress has no right to invade private lives as part of a fishing expedition especially where the parties to a confidentiality agreement do not want their identities revealed in a circus-like atmosphere and especially when Epstein had nothing do with any agreement.”

House panel chair threatens Leon Black with contempt

Susan Estrich, Black's lawyer, said in a statement released Tuesday night that Comer's letter misrepresented the facts and that Black was being targeted in a "political witch hunt".

A letter from Representative James Comer's office addressed to Black's lawyer was released on Tuesday.

Black voluntarily agreed to be questioned by the House panel in June as part of the committee's investigation into Epstein.

“Congress has no right to invade private lives as part of a fishing expedition especially where the parties to a confidentiality agreement do not want their identities revealed in a circus-like atmosphere and especially when Epstein had nothing do with any agreement.”
