Wyden Calls for Probe of Epstein’s Work for Leon Black

Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) “broadened his attack on the Trump administration’s handling of records about the financing of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking network, urging the Internal Revenue Service to investigate his tax and estate planning work for private equity titan Leon Black,” Bloomberg reports.

Said Wyden: “It is unthinkable that transactions amounting to tens of millions of dollars paid to a known criminal for the purpose of helping a mega-wealthy individual dodge billions in taxes were never audited or investigated. When Americans think the system is rigged, this is the kind of abuse they think about.”
