Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) director Chris Wray appeared visibly uncomfortable during a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing last week when asked whether Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s associates are still under investigation.
Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) asked Wray, “We know that Jeffrey Epstein, who’s now deceased, and [Ghislaine] Maxwell, his associate who’s now in prison, were engaged in a conspiracy of sex trafficking with minors. So were others?”
“What’s the FBI doing to investigate the other people that were involved in the sex trafficking rings?”
Wray, who appeared visibly uneasy, replied by saying he was “not sure” if he could “confirm any specific individual” was still under investigation.
However, Kennedy continued to press him.
“Jeffrey Epstein had video surveillance in all of his homes and on his private island,” said Kennedy noted.
“There have been articles after articles from witnesses who have said he videotaped sex acts with prominent people [and] young girls that he procured,” Kennedy recalled.
“The FBI and other federal agencies have raided [Epstein’s] houses. Do you have those tapes?” he demanded.
“I can’t discuss the specifics of our law-enforcement operations related to Mr. Epstein or Miss Maxwell,” Wray squirmed.
Watch
Wray said the FBI “had” run an extensive investigation into the sex traffickers but could not confirm whether anyone else was under investigation.
“I just want to know if these prominent people are above the law and aren’t being investigated, or is the FBI investigating?” Kennedy continued.
“Well, no one is above the law, number one,” Wray claimed.
“As to whether specific people are being investigated, that’s not something, as I’m sure you can appreciate, I can engage on.”
“Is [the investigation] ongoing?” Kennedy asked again.
“I’m not sure there’s anything I can share with you on that,” Wray replied.
Under President Joe Biden’s watch, around 85,000 children may have been trafficked in the United States.
As we reported in April last year, Sen. Josh Hawley bean calling for a “full-scale” investigation into 85,000 missing migrant children who have disappeared.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has lost all contact with the 85,000 accompanied Alien Children (UACs) since Biden took office.
Hawley said Biden officials ignored warnings that many these missing children (UACs) end up in child sex trafficking rings.
