The lawyer who repped Jeffrey Epstein in his 2008 teen-prostitution plea deal maintained personal ties with him, newly unsealed files show — and was later hired by Columbia University to fight the White House. Department of Justice documents on its probe into Epstein revealed that former Epstein lawyer Jay Lefkowitz kept a personal relationship with the sex offender after his conviction, including by tooling around on the millionaire financier’s private helicopter, attending his dinner parties and inviting Epstein to his son’s bar mitzvah, the Columbia Spectator student news outlet first reported. Victim-rights groups said they are outraged that the beleaguered Ivy League institution then still hired Lefkowitz to help negotiate the school’s $221 million settlement with the Trump DOJ this past summer over civil-rights claims of discrimination against Jewish students.
