Epstein Survivors Say That Lesley Groff Wasn't Honest With Congress (7/10/26)

Epstein survivors have publicly challenged Lesley Groff's testimony before Congress, arguing that her portrayal of herself as someone who knew nothing about Epstein's abuse operation is fundamentally incompatible with their experiences. During her June 2026 testimony, Groff described Epstein as a "master manipulator" who kept his criminal conduct hidden from her and insisted that she never knowingly scheduled appointments for minors or witnessed abuse. But several survivors told CNN and other outlets that Groff was far more deeply involved than she admitted, alleging that she arranged logistics, handled payments, possessed identifying documents that would have revealed victims' ages, and was present during key moments in Epstein's operation.

For the survivors, the issue is not simply whether Groff knew every detail of Epstein's crimes; it is that they believe her testimony minimizes her role and rewrites history. Some of the women have said they directly interacted with Groff, received money from her, or provided her with personal information, making her claims of ignorance difficult for them to accept. Their criticism has been echoed by some lawmakers, who openly questioned the plausibility that someone who spent nearly two decades as Epstein's executive assistant, scheduling his daily activities and coordinating travel and "massages," remained entirely unaware of what was happening around her. Groff and her attorney continue to stand by her testimony, but for many survivors, her appearance before Congress was another example of an Epstein insider distancing herself from the operation rather than fully accounting for what she saw and did during those years.
