‘I was in shock’: Epstein survivors say his ex-assistant lied to Congress


Multiple victims of Jeffrey Epstein tell CNN that Lesley Groff, the former assistant to the financier and pedophile, lied to Congress last month when she denied meeting or knowing anything about the girls who provided massages to Epstein.

In interviews with CNN, multiple Epstein victims, including four women who spoke on record and two who shared their accounts anonymously, took issue with various aspects of Groff’s recent testimony to lawmakers. They described meeting Groff in person, discussing with Groff how old they were and being directly paid by Epstein’s assistant of 18 years — all contrary to what Groff told lawmakers.
