Ex-Victoria’s Secret CEO’s lawyer caught on hot mic jokingly threatening to ‘kill’ him at Epstein deposition
Same show, different day.
Ex-Victoria’s Secret mogul Les Wexner’s lawyer was caught on a hot mic jokingly threatening to "kill" him if he continued giving long answers to questions during his deposition on Jeffrey Epstein by the House Oversight Committee.
The moment was caught after the committee released its full, nearly five-hour deposition of 88-year-old Wexner as part of its ongoing probe into Jeffrey Epstein’s network.
Several hours into the deposition, while Wexner was giving a particularly long-winded answer, Wexner’s attorney leaned over to him and whispered in his ear, "I’m going to f---ing kill you if you answer another question with more than five words, okay?"
Both Wexner and his attorney laughed after this statement, indicating Wexner understood it as a joke. The lawyer proceeded to instruct Wexner to "answer the question," laughing more.
Shortly before this exchange, the attorney had urged Wexner to "answer the question," saying, "I'm sure we all appreciate the stories, we're just trying to answer questions that they actually want answered," referring to the House committee.

He maintained his total innocence during the deposition, saying, "I was naïve, foolish, and gullible to put any trust in Jeffrey Epstein. He was a con man. And while I was conned, I have done nothing wrong and have nothing to hide. I completely and irrevocably cut ties with Epstein nearly twenty years ago when I learned that he was an abuser, a crook, and a liar."
The committee stated it was releasing the full deposition with "no spin," saying, "The American people deserve to see the testimony for themselves—transparency matters."
Wexner is the founder of L Brands, formerly called The Limited, through which he acquired well-known companies Victoria's Secret, Bath & Body Works, Express, and Abercrombie & Fitch, among others. He is no longer associated with Victoria’s Secret. He was one of Epstein's first major clients as a financial advisor, with Epstein being granted power of attorney over Wexner's vast wealth.
