The Oversight panel’s subpoena indicated the committee is seeking records that could shed light on Jeffrey Epstein’s activities.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) on Monday sent a subpoena to the estate of sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein for documents and communications that it may have in its custody.

The Oversight panel’s subpoena, signed by Comer, shows the committee is seeking records that could shed light on Epstein’s activities, while the panel said that it is trying to obtain a book that was allegedly prepared by his former girlfriend and associate Ghislaine Maxwell—who is currently serving out a 20-year prison term—for Epstein’s 50th birthday.

The Epstein estate is registered in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

“It is our understanding that the Estate of Jeffrey Epstein is in custody and control of documents that may further the Committee’s investigation and legislative goals. Further, it is our understanding the Estate is ready and willing to provide these documents to the Committee pursuant to a subpoena,” Comer said in a statement on Monday in announcing the subpoena.

According to the subpoena, the committee is requesting “any document or record that could be reasonably construed to be a potential list of clients involved in sex, sex acts, or sex trafficking facilitated” by Epstein.

It is also requesting “all documents and communications related or referring to Mr. Jeffrey Epstein’s missed phone call logs or missed visitor logs” between January 1990 and Aug. 19, 2019, the date of his death.

Other information requested by Comer’s office include “all entries from Mr. Jeffrey Epstein’s address/contact books, one reportedly referred to as a ‘Black Book,’ from January 1, 1990 through August 10, 2019,” as well as “all flight logs of arrival and/or departure for all aircraft, including helicopters, owned, rented, leased, operated, or used by” Epstein from that same time period.

The letter also demands that the estate provide documents such as his last will and testament, agreements with prosecutors, any financial transactions and holdings, and any non-disclosure agreements that Epstein may have signed.
