Darren Indyke, a lawyer who worked closely with Jeffrey Epstein for decades and serves as an executor of his estate, testified to the House Oversight Committee on Thursday that he "had no knowledge whatsoever" of his client's crimes.

Indyke was perhaps Epstein's closest associate dating back to the 1990s. He was involved in assembling Epstein's complex web of businesses, properties and legal teams for a voluminous tangle of civil and criminal matters.

In his prepared remarks, Indyke told the committee behind closed doors that he did not socialize with Epstein and described himself as "one of many attorneys whom Mr. Epstein regularly consulted."

"Not a single woman has ever accused me of committing sexual abuse or witnessing sexual abuse, nor claimed at any time that she or anyone else reported to me any allegation of Mr. Epstein's abuse," Indyke said.

Not true.

1. Well, perjury shouldn't be hard to prove on this lawyer.

[Phoenix61]

2. Of course he knew. Of course he lied when he said he didn't know.

What possible incentive would he have to tell the truth?

3. Isn't he the one who grabbed the home-made DVDs out of Epstein's safe?

He HAD to know something!

5. He's the one that arranged payments...

…to Epstein’s victims. How could he not know?

Hmmm, I wonder why Jeffrey is paying this young woman $1 million? Oh well, la la la la la.

7. This was actually said in court and taken from a transcript: (so I have heard)

Lawyer: "Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?"

Witness: "No."

Lawyer: "Did you check for blood pressure?"

Witness: "No."

Lawyer: "Did you check for breathing?"

Witness: "No."

Lawyer: "So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?"

Witness: "No."

Lawyer: "How can you be so sure, Doctor?"

Witness: "Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar."

Lawyer: "But could the patient have still been alive nevertheless?"

Witness: "Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law somewhere."
