BILL and Hillary Clinton could face jail time if they refuse a subpoena regarding their involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.
The political power couple was issued a congressional subpoena due to their alleged involvement with the convicted sex offender.
While the couple hasn’t officially responded to the subpoena, if they refuse, they could be held in contempt of Congress.
“If someone doesn’t comply with a subpoena…you can hold them in contempt of Congress,” House Oversight Committee chair James Comer told NewsNation.
“With a Republican attorney general, that’s something that I think that the Clinton legal team is going to think long and hard about.
“If the Clintons failed to comply with a bipartisan, congressionally approved subpoena, there’s likely to be little sympathy from the Trump Department of Justice, as that was the nature of the situation.”
Jeffrey Epstein, a wealthy financier, was convicted of sex trafficking women and underage girls, leading to his arrest in 2019.
The felon died in prison in 2019 after committing suicide.
The millionaire allegedly had contacts with many influential people, including Prince Andrew, the Clintons, and Donald Trump.
Reports suggest that the Clintons had traveled on Epstein’s private jet, locally dubbed the “Lolita Express” due to awareness of young girls visiting his secluded island, Little St. James.
This accusation came to light after prosecutors unveiled a 118-page flight log during the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s associate, as reported by Newsweek.
Maxwell was charged with six counts, including sex trafficking of a minor, for which she pleaded not guilty.
She was found guilty of five of the six counts and was sentenced to 20 years in prison in June 2022.
The logs indicate that the Clintons flew on the plane in the 1990s, with Bill reportedly flying on it up to nine times.
However, the former president denied having any extended contact with the convicted felon.
In a 2022 statement, Clinton stated, “President Clinton is unaware of the dreadful offenses Jeffrey Epstein admitted to in Florida years ago, or those for which he has recently been indicted in New York.”
Clinton emphasized that he is not familiar with the horrific acts Epstein confessed to in Florida years earlier or the charges he currently faces in New York.
Spokesperson for Bill Clinton
“He’s not spoken to Epstein in well over a decade, and has never been to Little St. James island.”
The former president asserted he “has no knowledge of the terrible crimes Epstein admitted to in Florida or the charges facing him now in New York.”
Bill Clinton’s office did not immediately respond to The U.S. Sun’s request for comment.
Prince Andrew was also named in the flight logs, having allegedly flown twice in February 1999.
The prince was accused of sexually assaulting one woman, Virginia Giuffre, on three separate occasions before she was 18 years old.
Andrew denies all allegations.
