Commerce chief Lutnick admits to visiting Epstein's island during Senate grilling
Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick admitted to senators during testimony Tuesday that he visited the notorious island owned by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein despite previously telling senators that he had cut off all contact with Epstein after first meeting him in 2005.
“I did have lunch with him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation,” Lutnick said.
But the Commerce secretary insisted his wife and kids were with him for the December 2012 meeting, and he didn’t witness any of the sex crimes alleged to have happened on the private island.
“My wife was with me, as were my four children and nannies. I had another couple — they were there, as well with their children. And we had lunch on the island. That is true, for an hour, and we left with all of my children, with my nannies, and my wife, all together. We were all together,” Lutnick testified to senators.
