Leon Black walked out of Epstein interview after refusing to answer questions about NDAs
Black left after lawmakers served a subpoena for NDAs tied to women who accused him of sexual misconduct, and he must turn them over next week.
- On Friday, billionaire Leon Black walked out of his House Oversight Committee interview after refusing to answer questions about his non-disclosure agreements with women who accused him of sexual misconduct.
- Black testified he associated with Jeffrey Epstein for his 'network of interesting people,' yet denied being close friends despite signing a birthday letter reading 'Love and Kisses, Leon.'
- Records show Black paid Epstein more than $170 million for purported 'tax and estate planning advice,' and he paid the Virgin Islands $62.5 million in 2023 to avoid litigation tied to Epstein's investigation.
- Following the walkout, the committee subpoenaed Black to turn over his NDAs by next week and appear for a mandatory deposition on Sept. 3 under oath.
- Black's attorney Aaron Cutler characterized the hearing as a 'planned political stunt,' arguing the committee served subpoenas in an 'unprecedented manner' after less than an hour of questioning.
