11 Shocking Epstein Secrets Exposed in Lawyer's Depo

Darren Indike, Epstein's long-term lawyer, repeatedly denied any knowledge of Epstein's sexual abuse or trafficking activities, claiming his involvement was limited to legitimate legal and corporate services. This stance was maintained despite revelations of his substantial financial benefits from Epstein, including over $10 million in direct payments and loans, and a $50 million provision in Epstein's trust.

Indike stated, 'My complete lack of involvement in that misconduct is a matter of record. Not a single woman has ever accused me of committing sexual abuse or witnessing sexual abuse.' He also detailed receiving $2.4 million personally and $8.3 million for his business from Epstein between 2003-2013, a $7 million unpaid loan, and a $50 million trust provision.

Indike explained his role in making frequent, large cash withdrawals (up to $7,500 daily) from Epstein's accounts, stating these were necessary for legitimate household and business expenses across Epstein's five multi-million dollar properties and extensive staff. He attributed the need for cash to Epstein's difficulty accessing credit cards from major banks.

Indike claimed, 'The bank itself imposed a $7,500 limit on daily cash withdrawals. I was not attempting to structure such withdrawals to avoid federal reporting requirements... Mr. Epstein had difficulty assessing credit cards from major banks. Instead, he and his staff required cash to pay for a wide variety of expenses, including maintenance, repairs, and daily household needs.'

Indike stated that after Epstein's 2008 Florida conviction, he believed Epstein's assurances that he would not engage in such conduct again. He cited conflicting police reports, a prosecutor's statement about 'no real victims,' and a psychological evaluation suggesting Epstein wasn't a pedophile as reasons for his initial skepticism about the severity of Epstein's crimes, admitting he 'drank the Kool-Aid' at the time.

Indike said, 'I think I went into the previously I went into how the police reports were inconsistent with recorded statements... I was made aware of a statement made by the lead prosecutor in Florida... that uttered a statement to the effect that there were no real victims there.' He later added, 'I drank the Kool-Aid at the time.'

Both Indike and co-executive Richard Khan refused to confirm or deny whether 'Jane Doe 4,' who accused Epstein and Donald Trump of abuse, received a settlement from the Epstein estate. They cited court orders and confidentiality requirements, despite a congressional subpoena, leading to accusations of obstruction from committee members.

Indike stated, 'We're bound by court orders not to say anything about the identifi to the extent someone has sued under a Jane Doe name... we are bound in confidentiality requirements in any settlement.' Representative Garcia pressed, 'So to be clear, you're not confirming or denying the settlement of Janeo4. Is that correct? We cannot.'

Following the deposition, Representatives Dave Man and Robert Garcia publicly accused Indike of perjury. They highlighted inconsistencies between his testimony and other evidence, including victim accounts alleging Indike helped them with immigration issues, secured apartments, and advised them not to speak with police.

Representative Man stated, 'I think it's very likely he perjured himself over and over and over again... numerous women have described how he helped them fix their problems... he reportedly told a number of women not to talk to police.' Representative Garcia added, 'Darren Indk played a central role in facilitating Jeffrey Epste's abuse... In his deposition... Indike would not confirm or deny a settlement with Jane Door.'
