Former President Bill Clinton spoke out before his closed-door deposition with the House Oversight Committee regarding Jeffrey Epstein. He emphasized his love for the country and the importance of upholding the law, regardless of one's position. Clinton expressed his commitment to truth and justice over partisanship.

Clinton addressed his decision to participate in the investigation, emphasizing the need for justice and healing for Epstein's victims. Despite his past acquaintance with Epstein, he stated he was unaware of the crimes and aims to prevent such incidents in the future.

Epstein's Arrest and Death

Epstein was arrested in July 2019 on charges of sex trafficking and conspiracy. He died by suicide in a New York City jail before the trial. The Justice Department released Epstein files as required by law, with Clinton denying any wrongdoing and expressing his lack of awareness of Epstein's crimes.

Testimony Preparations

Clinton cautioned the public that his testimony may include instances where he states, "I don't recall." He emphasized his commitment to truth under oath and readiness to answer questions to the best of his knowledge. His wife, Hillary Clinton, also testified before the committee, stating she had no association with Epstein.
