L Brands CEO Les Wexner has given documents to investigators showing alleged Jeffrey Epstein ties
Source: CNBC
L Brands founder, Chairman and CEO Les Wexner and his legal team have been providing documents to federal investigators that, they believe, show the accused child predator misappropriated funds while he was Wexner's money manager.
Wexner believes the evidence demonstrates "all sorts of irregularities and theft," one person with direct knowledge of the matter said. Epstein died in an apparent suicide over the weekend.
"There were things that were completely wrong and transactions that weren't appropriate," this person added. The person would not divulge details beyond that description.
Federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York have accused Epstein of trafficking and sexually abusing dozens of underage girls at his homes in Manhattan and Palm Beach, Florida.

That said, a spokeswoman for Wexner told the Times on Monday that he severed ties with Mr. Epstein about a decade ago. A representative for Wexner reiterated this to the Cut on Tuesday as well.
It's incredibly mysterious to me that Wexner just woke up last week and decided, "I need to sue Epstein and get all my old financial records out into the open."

Headline-Jeffrey Epstein misappropriated vast sums of money from me, Les Wexner says

Wexner is a major major factor in Columbus & Ohio.
Ohio State has named buildings and the University hospital for him. The current & previous Uni presidents have scandals on their own, besides this.
He is a factor on the "Columbus Way" of city governance.
Local paper is not going to do much investigations, IMO, the best local reporters work for the Ohio State NPR radio station, WOSU 89.7.
Investigating Wexners involvement will have to come from NYC, DC, LA{Victorias Secret factor}

(70,534 posts)Epstein's businesses was sex trafficking and blackmail. Wexner had and still has access to some
of the best "money people" in the world so why would he hook up with Epstein to help him manage
his monies?

(51,613 posts)"Tower investors also claimed in an August lawsuit that Epstein knowingly and intentionally utilized funds he fraudulently diverted and obtained from this massive Ponzi scheme for his own personal use to support a lavish lifestyle.
"Epstein used the fraudulent funds to found Financial Trust in 1996, a business he used to manage the money of Victorias Secret mogul Les Wexner, among other clients, the investors allege.

(959 posts)40 to 50 mil of your money and you just never get around to sitting down with the feds about it. Only now, after a decade or more, and after another arrest, are you outraged enough to sit down and offer info. This is absurd. But as others from this area have stated, Wexner is a big deal here. He built New Albany, Ohio. Easton Shopping district. Numerous buildings and entities all over Columbus and Franklin Co. carry his name. The Columbus Dispatch will not be helpful, nor will local media. It will have to come from out of state if we are to learn the truth.
