Comer says alleged Epstein victim named three alleged abusers: 'She was very brave coming forward'

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer said Thursday that a transcribed interview with an alleged Jeffrey Epstein victim has yielded the names of three more alleged abusers.

The House committee interviewed Sarah Kellen, who has been tied to the late-financier and referred to as his "lieutenant" in court documents, in a closed-door meeting which Comer said resulted in the most "substantive and productive interview that we’ve had.”

Kellen has claimed that she was a victim of Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell before she was turned into a recruiter for the pair and was the victim of sexual and psychological abuse.

“She was very brave coming forward," Comer told reporters after the meeting. "I can’t imagine how difficult it was for her to go into detail about the abuse that she endured at the hands of Epstein and Maxwell.

"One very positive thing today is she gave us three names of people that were involved in the abuse. These were new names for us," he added.

Comer said the committee will be releasing the transcript as soon as possible with redactions for the names of victims.

"As far as these alleged abusers, then you know, we'll let the whole world see that and we'll be able to move forward," Comer said. 

The chairman added that Kellen dispelled any notion that President Donald Trump was involved in the sex trafficking ring, stating that Democrats asked questions about the president, which the interviewee repeatedly denied.

"The Democrats have one goal, it appears to me ... verify this narrative that Trump’s involved," Comer said. "[That's] just not the case and I think that this is going to be a good day for us moving forward."

The committee has also interviewed former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick about their ties to the late convicted sex-offender. None have been accused of wrongdoing.
