Epstein's top advisers reportedly under federal investigation, marking major development for survivors

Federal investigators are reportedly probing two of Jeffrey Epstein’s closest advisers—his longtime lawyer Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn—in what the Wall Street Journal described as a major development for survivors seeking accountability. CNN reported that federal authorities opened the investigation this week, citing a source who also said investigators earlier interviewed a person about Epstein, including Indyke and Kahn. The investigation reportedly involves outreach to potential witnesses, including survivors, and requests for documentation such as emails and checks. CNN’s source said investigators focused on topics Indyke and Kahn may have known, including Epstein’s shell companies such as the Florida Science Foundation. A Justice Department spokesperson said the agency doesn’t comment on investigations’ existence.
