A lawyer for billionaire Les Wexner apparently had enough of the businessman’s long-winded answers during a deposition before House Oversight Committee investigators earlier this week — and was caught on a hot mic bluntly telling him to keep his answers to questions about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein short and sweet. “I will f–king kill you if you answer another question with more than five words, OK?” attorney Michael Levy whispered to Wexner about four and a half hours into the former Victoria’s Secret owner’s deposition in the congressional Epstein probe. The wild moment was captured on video footage of Wexner’s deposition, which was released in its entirety by the committee on Thursday.
Wexner, 88, had been asked about how often the disgraced financier performed work for him and proceeded to ramble about all his possessions that needed inventorying, something he explained he didn’t realize was important until he hired Epstein. Wexner laughed after receiving the advice from his attorney, the footage showed.
