US House Oversight Committee members investigating the late sexual\noffender Jeffrey Epstein have shifted their attention to three new men.\nThe move follows former longtime Epstein aide Sarah Kellen giving\ntestimony in a closed hearing of the House Oversight Committee. Chairman\nJames Comer disclosed that Kellen personally identified and named the\nthree men. According to CNN sources, they are Frederic Fekkai (the\nFrench celebrity hair stylist), Philip Levine (former Mayor of Miami\nBeach), and Patrick Demarchelier (French fashion photographer who died\nin 2022).<\/p>\n
Kellen accuses Fekkai and Levine of sexually assaulting her.\nDemarchelier is accused of exposing his genitals in her presence.\nHowever, to date there have been no criminal charges filed against the\nthree men in connection with Epstein\u2019s network.<\/p>\n
Frederic Fekkai\u2019s media representative, Mark Herr, vehemently denied\nthe allegations in a formal statement. \u2018Mr Fekkai was very surprised to\nread Ms Kellen\u2019s testimony. He has never assaulted anyone. He has never\nparticipated in any illegal behaviour. He knows nothing about Epstein\u2019s\ndepravity or human trafficking. He has done nothing wrong,\u2019 Herr\nsaid.<\/p>\n
Levine had previously told the WLRN media outlet that his\nrelationship with Epstein was merely a matter of acquaintance through\nhis friend, Ghislaine Maxwell. \u2018As I have stated before, my only\nconnection to Jeffrey Epstein arose through an old friendship with\nGhislaine Maxwell. I met Epstein only a few times. I never did business\nwith him, never visited his island, and never flew on his plane. I\nregret ever meeting him,\u2019 Levine said at the time.<\/p>\n
Kellen herself remains a controversial figure within Epstein\u2019s inner\ncircle. Although she was investigated by authorities for allegedly\nassisting the billionaire\u2019s illicit activities, she insists she was a\nvictim of manipulation and severe emotional abuse. \u2018He cared for me,\nsexually and psychologically abused me, controlled me, manipulated me,\ndominated me, and lied to me (gaslit) until I could no longer discern my\nthoughts from his,\u2019 Kellen said in her opening statement before the\nlegislature.<\/p>\n
Comer said Kellen\u2019s new testimony provides investigators with new,\nhighly valuable leads to pursue Epstein\u2019s network thoroughly.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/three-high-profile-names-named-by-former-jeffrey-epstein-assistant-in-allegations-of-abuse-1779533748", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
