(The Hill) — Mark Epstein, the elder brother ofdisgraced financierJeffrey Epstein denied the White House’s assertion that President Donald Trump never came to his office.
That’s simply another obvious falsehood,” the older Epstein stated during a Tuesday segment on CNN’s “Erin Burnett OutFront.
Because he was present. Individuals who worked for Jeffrey in his office can confirm that they saw Trump in Jeffrey’s office multiple times,” he continued. “So for him to claim he wasn’t there, all I can say is that’s yet another falsehood.
Later in the program, Maria Farmer, a accuser of Epstein, made an appearance, sharing her version of the president’s visit to the affluent businessman’s office many years prior to his death.
Mark Epstein has consistently claimed that his siblingwas murdered while incarceratedA joint memo released earlier this month by the Trump administration’s Justice Department and the FBI stated that there is no evidence to back up claims that Epstein was murdered and that he did not maintain a so-called “client list.”
“Every time they say or do something to try to suppress the fact that he was probably murdered, they only dig themselves deeper into trouble,” Epstein’s brother stated to Nexstar’s NewsNation host Chris Cuomo earlier this month, in response to why he doesn’t accept the administration’s most recent explanation.
The Trump administration has faced ongoing speculation regarding its management of the Epstein documents, with increasing demands for greater openness in the matter.
The president has consistently tried to distance himself from Epstein, who faced allegations of heading a sex trafficking ring that involved minor girls. Trump’s claims of not being close to him became confusing last week due to aWall Street Journal article that unveiled an alleged correspondencebetween the two in 2003.
The publication stated that a letter, seemingly signed by Trump, was written within the shape of a nude woman and delivered to Epstein.
“A friend is a remarkable thing. Happy Birthday — and may each day hold another wonderful mystery,” the final line states, according to the Journal.
In response, the president filed a lawsuit against the outlet for defamation and has pressed his supportersto shift focus away from the subject.
