"Well thus far, with the information that we've received, what Patel said would appear to be consistent, and we met privately with the victims for over two hours, as well as their attorneys. Many members of the committee, both Democrat and Republican, male and female, asked the victims if they would provide names, and they didn't say there weren't any names, but they didn't give us any names, and we're gonna follow the money."
"I think the next step in trying to determine whether or not there were people other than Epstein that were involved in the human trafficking is to follow the money, and that's where we are in the investigation now. We're fixing to go in the treasury cabinet and look at the bank violations, and as I've always said in previous investigations, the banks are always the first people that usually catch criminal activity."
The FBI assessment finds no credible information indicating Jeffrey Epstein trafficked underage victims to other people beyond himself. House Oversight Committee review of provided information aligns with that assessment after private meetings with victims and their attorneys produced no names identifying additional traffickers. Investigators plan to pursue financial leads by examining Treasury records and alleged bank violations to trace payments to Epstein and identify potential associates. Banking transaction probes are viewed as a primary avenue to detect criminal activity and possible co-conspirators. The assertion generated public backlash following related congressional testimony. Victims number in the hundreds, possibly exceeding a thousand.
