Four days before he pleaded guilty in Florida in 2008 to soliciting sex with someone younger than 18, Epstein received an email from Wexner.

„Abigail told me the response,“ Wexner wrote, referring to his wife. „All I can say is I feel sorry. You violated your own number 1 rule … Always be careful.“

Epstein’s reply: „no excuse.“

When asked in the deposition about the email, Wexner said he didn‘t know what prompted him to write, except that he was angry with Epstein over the financier‘s actions.
