Attorney tells billionaire 'I will kill you' if he keeps answering questions during Epstein deposition

Billionaire Les Wexner, 88, endured blunt criticism from an attorney during a House Oversight Committee deposition about his ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The attorney leaned in and warned Wexner to limit responses to five words or face severe consequences, a moment captured on C-SPAN.

Wexner's name has surfaced over 1,000 times in newly released Epstein files, intensifying scrutiny. Victim Virginia Giuffre alleges she was trafficked to Wexner and others, though he denies any wrongdoing and claims Epstein duped him. Wexner described Epstein as a con artist in the deposition, distancing himself from the late financier despite past descriptions of their relationship as that of a "loyal friend."
