Epstein convinced his financial guy his crimes were a 'one-time thing': CNN

Darren Indyke is one of the lawyers who serves as the executor of the estate for Jeffrey Epstein, one of several lawyers who swears he "had no knowledge whatsoever" of the crimes. Democrats claimed he perjured himself with the statements, revealing in real time that he had knowledge.

Indyke spoke to the House Oversight Committee on Thursday over the work he did for Epstein, where he testified, among many things, that he did have some concerns about Epstein after he was caught by law enforcement in Florida and became a convicted sex offender. After that, Indyke said that Epstein swore he "didn't know she was underage," CNN reported on air, citing Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.).

Brianna Keilar reported on air that Indyke said "Epstein told him it was a mistake, meaning after the 2008 plea deal that he agreed to. He said it was a one-time deal. He didn't know the girl was underage — the one that he got convicted of in West Palm Beach. And Indyke said he [Epstein] convinced him he would never do it again and that he had remorse."

The Guardian confirmed the reporting, saying that after Epstein pleaded guilty and served his light one-year sentence, Epstein appeared to him “to be devastated and extremely contrite."

“He was adamant that he had no idea anyone involved was underage, and personally assured me he would never again let himself be in that position,” Indyke said. “I believed him, and I made the mistake of believing Mr. Epstein that he would not again commit a crime. I deeply regret doing so.”

Indyke concluded the opening remarks, saying, “That I did not know what my client did in his private life may be difficult for some to believe, but it is true.”

Democrats didn't understand how both things could be true.

Rep. David Min (D-Calf.) told reporters that the statement claimed Indyke knew nothing, "and yet that doesn't account for the fact that numerous women have described how he helped them fix their problems. One woman described how ... he had helped her get an apartment. He helped women with their immigration issues."

James Marsh, attorney for some of the Epstein accusers, told CNN that by 2008, anyone who could Google would see what Epstein was up to.
