Democrats Release Ad Featuring Family of Epstein Victim

October 5, 2026 · 8:32 am ET · Leave a Comment

“The campaign arm working to elect House Democrats released a political advertisement on Monday featuring the family of Virginia Giuffre, who was the first victim of Jeffrey Epstein to go public with allegations of abuse,” CNN reports.

“The advertisement was released in support of Democratic candidate Jessica Killin, who is facing incumbent Republican Rep. Jeff Crank in Colorado’s 5th Congressional District.”

“It features a brother and sister-in-law of Giuffre, who died by suicide last year, speaking directly to camera and criticizing Crank for not meeting with them while lawmakers were considering votes to release files related to the late sex offender.”
