Observers mocked a lawyer's threat to "kill" his client during a deposition that was picked up on a hot mic on Thursday.

On Wednesday, Leslie Wexner was deposed by the House Oversight Committee over his ties to disgraced financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. A video of the nearly five-hour deposition was released on Thursday, and it included a moment where Wexner's lawyer leaned over and threatened to kill him if he continued giving long-winded answers.

"I'll f------ kill you if you answer a question with more than five words," the lawyer said.

Political observers and legal analysts reacted to the video on social media.

"Good grief. Must have missed whispering class in law school," lawyer Robert Kelner posted on X.

"I’ve only told my clients this a few times," Lake County, Florida Commissioner Anthony Sabatini posted on X.

"Coming soon to everyone's media training decks," Mike Ricci, partner at strategic communications firm Seven Letter, posted on X.

"The limited series about all of this stuff is going to win an Emmy," film and television producer Franklin Leonard posted on X.

"Peak defense attorney performance. Yes, this is real," Alan Cole, senior economist at the Tax Foundation, posted on X.

"Politics aside, you won't be able to find any attorney who has ever defended a deposition who hasn't wanted to do this," Scott Rochelle, partner at Grant Thornton, posted on X.
