Hillary Clinton, the former Secretary of State, asserted that she has no relations to the Jeffrey Epstein case, during a closed-door hearing of the House Oversight Committee that investigates Epstein's connections to influential individuals. The testimony takes place on Thursday, with Clinton emphasizing that she has never flown on Epstein's private jet or visited any of his properties. Through social media, she shared a prepared statement for the hearing, which is set to take place in Chappaqua, New York.

Clinton also criticized the committee's chairman, Republican James Comer, claiming he is aware that she cannot provide any relevant information for the ongoing investigation yet continues to insist on her appearance. This highlights the contentious nature of the investigation and the political maneuvering involved, particularly as it relates to high-profile individuals. In a BBC interview, Clinton recalled her familiarity with Ghislaine Maxwell from events organized by the Clinton Foundation, mentioning that Maxwell attended her daughter's wedding in 2010, further complicating the narrative around her involvement.

The hearing comes as part of broader scrutiny surrounding Epstein and his associates, including former President Bill Clinton, who is also scheduled to provide testimony. This situation marks a significant moment in the ongoing investigations into Epstein's network and raises questions about accountability among those connected to him. Clinton's statements aim to distance herself from any allegations while calling for equal scrutiny of all figures involved, particularly emphasizing the need for accountability from former President Donald Trump as well.
