Les Wexner Deposed in Jeffrey Epstein Investigation
- On Feb. 18, 2026, House Oversight Committee Democrats deposed Leslie Wexner at his New Albany home, questioning his ties to Jeffrey Epstein and doubting his denials.
- The U.S. Department of Justice's Epstein Files show the FBI reviewed Wexner in 2019 as a possible co‑conspirator, and Democrats say he funded over $1 billion to Epstein.

- Local institutions and residents demand transparency as `Garcia said` `This community deserves to know why the most powerful man and one of the richest men, if not the richest man, in Ohio, gave so much of his wealth to the largest modern sex trafficking ring in American history.
