Billionaire Leon Black left a committee hearing on Jeffrey Epstein on Friday. The hearing was part of a probe into the financier’s relationship with the late sex‑offender. After the session ended, Black said he was did not know about Epstein’s illegal conduct. A House Judiciary Committee later sent a subpoena to Black, demanding documents and evidence about funds he transferred to Epstein’s estate. The subpoena follows the abrupt hearing exit and adds pressure on the former BlackRock chief to explain his ties to the convicted sex offender.
