Epstein pleaded the Fifth when asked about Trump and underage girls

A video of a Jeffrey Epstein deposition from March 17, 2010 recently resurfaced, relayed by MeidasTouch and reported by HuffPost, in which Epstein is questioned about his ties to Donald Trump.

In the video, Epstein is asked whether he had a “personal relationship” with Donald Trump and whether they had ever socialized together.

To these questions, the fallen financier and convicted sex offender replied: “Yes, sir”.

After again answering in the affirmative when asked to confirm his answer, Epstein is asked a more specific question.

He was then asked if these moments of socialization with Donald Trump had involved the presence of young girls under the age of 18: “Have you ever socialized with Donald Trump in the presence of females under the age of 18?”

Epstein then responds enigmatically, stating: “Though I’d like to answer that question…”, only to invoke his Fifth, Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment rights not to answer.

This video reopens the mystery surrounding the relationship between Trump and Epstein between 1980 and 2005. While Trump now seeks to downplay their friendship, he finds himself at the heart of a controversy, with his administration accused ofof having tried to discreetly close the Epstein file, a subject that has long fueled conspiracy theories and raised doubts about his true intentions.
