Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton issued a statement following reports that she participated in a deposition before the House Oversight Committee concerning matters related to Jeffrey Epstein.
In remarks circulating online, Clinton stated: “I did not know Jeffrey Epstein. I never went to his island. I never went to his home. I never went to his offices.”
At this time, official transcripts or full context from the reported deposition have not been publicly released. It remains unclear what specific questions were asked during the proceeding or whether additional individuals are expected to testify.
Epstein, a financier who died in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, had longstanding connections with high-profile figures across politics, business, and academia. Many public figures have previously issued statements distancing themselves from him.
Online commentary has speculated about potential political implications, including renewed scrutiny of former President Bill Clinton, who has previously acknowledged flying on Epstein’s private plane but has denied knowledge of Epstein’s criminal conduct.
No allegations of wrongdoing have been formally announced in connection with this reported deposition. Congressional oversight hearings often involve questioning witnesses to clarify timelines, associations, or public claims.
Further updates are expected as more details become publicly available.
