Congress Scrutinizes Conflicting Statements From Jeffrey Epstein Accountant Richard Kahn (3/17/26)

Richard Kahn, Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime accountant and co-executor of his estate, testified before the House Oversight Committee as part of Congress’s ongoing investigation into Epstein’s finances and network of associates. Kahn had worked with Epstein for more than a decade, managing his finances, investments, and various expenditures, including projects such as renovations on Epstein’s private Caribbean island. During the closed-door deposition, Kahn told lawmakers that his relationship with Epstein was strictly professional and that he never observed any evidence of sexual abuse or trafficking while handling Epstein’s financial affairs. He said that although he tracked Epstein’s spending carefully—including gifts to women and men—those transactions appeared to represent only a small portion of Epstein’s overall expenditures and did not raise red flags to him at the time.


Kahn also expressed regret that he may have unknowingly assisted Epstein, saying that had he been aware of the crimes, he would have immediately stopped working for him. Lawmakers questioned him extensively about Epstein’s wealth, financial relationships with prominent individuals, and how his operation functioned for years without detection. The testimony comes amid broader congressional scrutiny of Epstein’s financial network and the role played by close associates who helped manage his assets. Kahn and Epstein’s longtime attorney Darren Indyke—both executors of the estate—have also faced legal challenges from victims alleging they helped facilitate aspects of Epstein’s operations, though they deny wrongdoing.
