When asked during a 2016 deposition whether Jeffrey Epstein had ever spoken to her about former President Bill Clinton, Epstein accuser Johanna Sjoberg said, “He said one time that Clinton likes them young, referring to girls.”
The deposition transcript was reportedly among various documents unsealed on Wednesday.
Epstein passed away in jail in 2019 in what was ruled a suicide, according to the New York Times, which noted that he had been facing sex-trafficking charges.
A Clinton spokesperson claimed in a 2019 statement that the former president “knows nothing about the terrible crimes Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to in Florida some years ago, or those with which he has been recently charged in New York.”
Epstein had a painting that depicted Clinton wearing a blue dress and heels, the New York Post reported in 2019, citing law enforcement sources. “It was hanging up there prominently — as soon as you walked in — in a room to the right,” a source noted, according to the outlet. “Everybody who saw it laughed and smirked.”
According to the deposition transcript, Sjoberg had recollected a time when Epstein had mentioned Donald Trump. “Jeffrey said, Great, we’ll call up Trump and we’ll go to — I don’t recall the name of the casino, but — we’ll go to the casino,” she said in the deposition.
In 2019, Trump said that he “had a falling out with him [Epstein] a long time ago” and had not spoken to Epstein for around 15 years. “I was not a fan of his,” Trump said.
