Indyke and Kahn have previously denied any knowledge of Epstein’s criminal activities and have not faced formal accusations. However, recent court filings reveal that the pair were involved in managing a $650 million estate, which has distributed over $120 million to survivors of Epstein’s abuse. Their roles in structuring accounts that facilitated trafficking have also come under scrutiny, as highlighted in a class-action lawsuit.
