Les Wexner And The Deep Ties That Bind Him To Jeffrey Epstein

0:00What's up everyone and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. When we talk about Jeffrey Epstein and the way he was able to maneuver and snake his way through the system for so long, there was one person, especially, who really helped him out along the way, and that person is none other than Les Wexner. Now this is a man who was extremely rich, extremely powerful, and for whatever reason decided that he's going to give the keys of the kingdom to Jeffrey Epstein, that sounds like a great idea. Then later on down the road, Les Wexner tries to pitch to everybody that Jeffrey Epstein stole $37 million from him. I said at the time, and I still believe that that was a baked in defense mechanism for the both of them. If Epstein ever got busted, then Wexner would just say, look, Epstein stole this money from me, and I have nothing to do with him, I'm a victim too. And that was all part of the plan, because if you don't think people like this have fail safes, you have not been paying attention.

1:00Today's article is from Cincinnati.com headline. What we learned about Les Wexner and Jeffrey Epstein in document release. Nothing we didn't know already, and anybody telling you any different, well, there be essence. All of these relationships that people are all of a sudden outraged by have been relationships that are well known that Jeffrey Epstein fostered over the years. That's why the whole thing with the Senate has me shaking my head. As if we needed to have this document dump come out for us to know what was going on. Today's article is authored by Mark Williams. The thousands of pages of court documents released over the past week from a New York lawsuit revealed no fresh allegations about the relationship between New Albany billionaire and retail magnate. Les Wexner and his ties to accused sexual abuser Jeffrey Epstein accused no convicted OK convicted sexual abuser is a legacy media OK did they fall and collectively hit their head because

2:01the nonsense that they spew about Jeffrey Epstein and his buddies is pretty sickening. But they do serve as a reminder of just how tight Epstein Wexner is one time financial manager and Wexner. The driving force behind well known brand such as Victoria Secret, Abercrombie and Fitch and Bath and Body Works were at one time. We didn't need those court documents to tell us we all knew Epstein was running around telling everybody he could get them jobs at Victoria Secret that he was the man over there and then Les Wexner for his part he gave Jeffrey Epstein power of attorney. So Epstein had control over his whole ass fortune ask yourself why ask yourself why a guy like Les Wexner supposedly one of the smartest men in the room. Why are they going to give the keys to Jeffrey Epstein's bitch ass. Wexner's name came out more than 45 times in a 2015 civil lawsuit filed by Virginia Roberts who accused Epstein and partner Glenn Maxwell of directing her sexual involvement with prominent men.

3:02The case was settled in 2017. Last month US District Judge Loretta Preska of the Southern District of New York ordered the list of names and related documents to be released because there was no longer a need for them to remain hidden. And this was the final result of the order that Preska passed a few years ago. And that order stated that all of this documentation was going to be unsealed. So this is the climax if you will of that order. None of those who are mentioned in the documents have been charged with any crime. Now read that again and tell me that's not fucked up. How is it that all these people who are mentioned in these documents from Sarah Kellenon and nobody's been charged with a crime? Their inclusion on the list only constitutes a possible association as a witness victim, plaintiff or having business or social contact with Epstein and or Maxwell who is serving 20 years in federal prison for her conviction. And there was no list. This isn't about a list. This is about receipts.

4:02And what this dumb did is provide those receipts. So as far as lists or anything like that, that was never going to occur like I told you before this all happened. Just like the other dumps, we were aware of all these names. All it does is fill in the blank spaces. Authorities say Epstein killed himself in August 2019 while awaiting trial on charges that he sexually exploited and abused dozens of underage girls between 2002 and 2005. He had already been previously convicted of similar crimes. The most salacious allegation about Wexner that came out in the document when Roberts, after being prompted in a deposition, testified that she had sex multiple times with Wexner, a claim that Wexner has strongly denied. Even an attorney who represented Roberts at one time has said he had doubts about the claim about Wexner and some of the others that Roberts claimed she was forced to have sex with. So this article, whoever this author is, is just another worm who has no idea what they're

5:03talking about. Just another idiot that's probably getting money from Les Wexner one way or the other, because we all know that Les Wexner runs Ohio like it's his own little fiefdom. Who is Jeffrey Epstein? Epstein's social circle was filled with the rich and the famous, including former presidents, Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, as well as Prince Andrew of England. Epstein was a New York City financial manager, pedophile, when he met Wexner in the 1980s. Her relationship was so tight that Wexner granted Epstein power of attorney that gave Epstein wide latitude to act on Wexner's behalf and at one point Wexner was Epstein's only known client. Yeah, nothing to see here. Virginia is a big ole liar. This is just all coincidence. I mean, how could anyone believe that? Like how could you believe that Les Wexner had no idea what was going on? Even if you don't believe Virginia, put that to the side. How could you believe that Wexner, who was giving Epstein power of attorney, knew what

6:04Epstein was up to, seen all these girls around, had the reports coming in that Epstein was using Victoria's secret to lure girls in, but Wexner had no idea what was going on, huh? Look, if you want to buy that, that's fine. Me. I'm not buying it. In 1998, Epstein was identified as president, along with Wexner, of the new Albany company in Ohio business records, Epstein on land, and the new Albany development, including a house on King George Drive, amid land owned by Wexner. Epstein on the house, from 1994, until selling it for $0 to the Wexner's in December of 2007. Funny, right after he got nailed, huh? Right after things started to fall apart. All part of that baked-in scheme to protect Wexner. That's my speculation. Epstein also shared an interest in a Manhattan mansion bought in 1989 for $13.2 million. At the time, a record price for a Manhattan townhome by a corporation controlled by Wexner

7:07and Epstein, according to the New York Times, nine years later, Wexner transferred his interest in the property to Epstein for $20 million, the Times reported. Yeah, we've heard $1. So I don't know if I believe the Times over the other sources that we've heard as far as survivors and people close to what happened. Either way, the property was transferred to Epstein eventually. Epstein had lived in the mansion for several years, though Wexner never lived there. Epstein was a long time trustee of the Wexner Foundation, focused on Jewish education and leadership, though the foundation says he participated in name only and was not involved in any of the day-to-day activities. Oh, I'm sure, in name only, because that's the kind of guy that Jeffrey Epstein was, right? Only. Who do they think they're kidding? Who is less Wexner? Wexner is Ohio's richest person with an estimated wealth of six billion, according to Forbes. Wexner started the limited in 1963, with $5,000 on loan from his aunt, beginning a retail

8:09empire that would one day include Victoria's Secret, Bath & Body Works, Abercrombie & Fitch, and other brands. He opened the first limited store in Kingsdale Shopping Center in Upper Arlington. He retired in 2020 as CEO and president of Vell Brands, which at the time consisted of Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works. The following year, he and his wife Abigail Wexner stepped down from the corporate board, and the company split into two companies. Yeah, no shit, he stepped down. He was forced to step down because of all of the attention to his relationship with Epstein. That's the only reason he stepped down. This decision to resign came after he had received criticism for his tithed Epstein, and years of sliding sales at Victoria's Secret, during the Me Too era, as customers offended by the retailers, hypersexual emphasis moved on to other brands. So basically what this author would have you believe is that there is nothing to see here. That Wexner was just a guy that was hanging out with Epstein, and everything else is just

9:10a bunch of talk. Well, Mr. Author, here's an idea. Do your homework, please. Beyond his retail history, Wexner has left his mark across Columbus and many of its buildings, including a $100 million donation to Ohio State in 2010, a $163 million gift to the Columbus Foundation, and tens of millions of dollars to other nonprofits and charities. Wexner has said repeatedly that he was not aware of Epstein's activities. Oh, well, in that case, let's just believe him, huh? I think I'll believe Virginia instead. How about that? What happened between Wexner and Epstein? In February 2008, Wexner announced he was replacing Epstein as his investment manager. The move followed Epstein's plea in Florida to charges of soliciting sex from a minor, Epstein paid a settlement, 5.5 million in total, to three of more than two dozen teens who sued him. By 2007, as allegations of sexual misconduct were emerging against Epstein and Florida,

10:13he was agreed that he should step back from managing the Wexner family finances. Wexner said in a letter in 2019 to the Wexner Foundation, who believes that sure, that's a nice cover story, but nobody buys it. At least I don't, maybe other people do, but I certainly don't buy it. And I think that the whole entire thing was baked in as protection. So if this ever happened and Epstein was exposed, well, Captain Les Wexner over here could, you know, just plead ignorance. I had no idea what was going on. And in fact, he was stealing from me. In that process, we discovered that he misappropriated vast sums of money from me and my family. Wexner said Wexner accused Epstein of stealing tens of millions of dollars from the family and 47 million was returned to the family to a new foundation set up by Abigail Wexner in December 2007. The foundation was dissolved three years later. Sounds like money laundering to me. Sounds like a whole lot of that. But what do I know?

11:13Wexner has said he didn't know anything about Epstein's alleged sex activities. I would have never guessed that a person I employed more than a decade ago could have caused so much pain to so many people. My heart goes out to each and every person who has been hurt. Wexner said in an email in 2019 to El Brands. I severed all ties with Mr. Epstein nearly 12 years ago. I would not have continued to work with any individual capable of such egregious, sickening behavior as was reported about him. As you can imagine this past week, I have searched my soul, reflected, and regretted that my path ever crossed his. Well you'd have to have a soul for you to reflect on it, sir. And you might call it reflection, but the rest of us call it excuse making. So there's no doubt that less Wexner and Jeffrey Epstein were super tight, and there's certainly no doubt that he's been accused by Virginia Roberts. But like the rest of Epstein's fellow travelers, looks like last Wexner is never going to be held to account. Alright folks that's going to do it for this one, all the information that goes with
