BREAKING - The Wexner Deposition: 'If You Talk More Than Five Words, I'll Kill You'
Description
On February 18, 2026, Les Wexner — the billionaire founder of Victoria's Secret and Jeffrey Epstein's most significant financial patron — sat for a six-hour deposition before the House Oversight Committee. Four and a half hours in, his attorney was caught on a hot mic: "If you talk more than five words, I'm going to kill you." This episode connects that deposition to what the documents already show: the 1991 power of attorney granting Epstein total control of Wexner's finances, the 2008 email sent after Epstein's plea deal, the 2014 memo where Epstein wrote "never ever did anything without informing Les," and the $100 million repayment that investigators called only a portion of what was stolen.
We trace the paper trail from Wexner's sworn denials through Virginia Giuffre's allegations, the Maria Farmer FBI complaint filed half a mile from Wexner's home, and the partisan divide over whether Wexner lied under oath — connecting congressional testimony to primary source documents spanning two decades.
