Wexner, Indyke, Kahn, Epstein — The Congressional Subpoenas Years in the Making (1/8/26)

In a major development in the ongoing congressional scrutiny of the late sex-offender Jeffrey Epstein’s network, the U.S. House Oversight Committee has voted to issue subpoenas to billionaire Les Wexner and two key figures tied to Epstein’s financial and legal affairs, Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn. Wexner, the former head of L Brands and long-time associate of Epstein, is being asked to sit for a deposition as lawmakers press him on his longstanding ties to Epstein, including financial arrangements and the purchase of Epstein’s New York home — connections that have drawn decades of public and legal attention. Indyke, Epstein’s longtime lawyer, and Kahn, his in-house accountant, both co-executors of Epstein’s estate, are also being subpoenaed amid allegations from survivors and committee members that they may have known about or facilitated aspects of Epstein’s operations. Support for the subpoenas cut across party lines in the committee, and leaders say the actions are intended to “follow the money” and expose anyone who may have enabled or profited from Epstein’s abuses.

The push for these subpoenas comes amid broader pressure by Congress to uncover the full scope of Epstein’s activities and connections, following the release of millions of pages of Epstein-related documents under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Congressional leaders, particularly Rep. Robert Garcia, have framed the subpoenas as critical to delivering accountability to survivors and clarifying whether figures like Wexner, Indyke, and Kahn were aware of or complicit in Epstein’s misconduct. Wexner has stated he will cooperate with inquiries but maintains he was unaware of Epstein’s crimes and severed ties in the mid-2000s. Indyke and Kahn likewise deny knowledge of wrongdoing and have indicated cooperation with the investigation. The committee’s actions reflect escalating legislative pressure to probe beyond the original criminal case and illuminate the financial, legal, and personal networks that supported Epstein’s operations.
