Congress’s House Oversight and Government Reform Committee recently moved to **subpoena billionaire retail executive Les Wexner to sit for a deposition as part of its ongoing investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s network and activities. Lawmakers, led by Rep. Robert Garcia and with support from members on both sides of the aisle, approved subpoenas not only for Wexner but also for Epstein’s longtime lawyer Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn—the co-executors of Epstein’s estate. The panel’s aim is to dig deeper into Epstein’s financial ties and the roles others may have played in enabling or benefiting from his abuses. Wexner, founder and former CEO of what became L Brands (including Victoria’s Secret), had a long financial relationship with Epstein, who managed his personal finances and served as a trustee of his foundation; Wexner has not been accused of criminal wrongdoing but his ties, including reported business arrangements such as selling Epstein one of his properties, have drawn intense scrutiny.

Supporters of the subpoenas frame them as a key step in “following the money” and providing accountability to survivors by clarifying the full scope of Epstein’s financial network and relationships. Ranking Member Garcia described the actions as advancing justice and transparency, emphasizing the need to understand how Epstein’s activities were supported or facilitated by powerful associates. The subpoenas reflect broader congressional pressure—including votes to force the Justice Department to release millions of pages of investigatory files—to uncover previously unseen details about Epstein’s connections with elite figures. Wexner’s counsel has said he will “cooperate fully,” noting past cooperation with earlier investigations.
