Hillary Clinton appeared in front of the House Oversight Committee on February 26, 2026, to answer questions about Jeffrey Epstein, the deceased child sex offender, with whom her husband, Bill Clinton, was close years ago. She released a statement insisting that she had “no idea” about the “criminal activities” by Epstein or his associate Ghislaine Maxwell. So, does this mean Hillary was mentioned in the Epstein files?

Why Did Hillary Clinton Have to Testify in the Epstein Investigation?
Hillary’s testimony is part of the government’s investigation into the Epstein files, which have been released in batches over the past several months of Donald Trump‘s presidency.
“[Y]ou have compelled me to testify, fully aware that I have no knowledge that would assist your investigation in order to distract attention from President Trump’s actions and cover them up despite legitimate calls for answers,” Hillary’s statement to the House Oversight Committee read. “If this committee is serious about learning the truth about Epstein’s trafficking crimes, it would not rely on press gaggles to get answers from our current president on his involvement; it would ask him directly under oath about the tens of thousands of times he shows up in the Epstein files.”
Is Hillary Clinton in the Epstein Files?
Hillary’s name is mentioned in the Epstein files, but she never had direct communication with him. Her husband, Bill, however, admittedly flew on Epstein’s plane several times, though he’s maintained that he never visited the deceased sex offender’s island.
Hillary is not linked to any of Epstein’s crimes or other wrongdoings.
