US House Committee Recommends Contempt for Financier Leon Black
A U.S. House committee has unanimously voted to recommend holding billionaire financier Leon Black in contempt of Congress. The recommendation stems from his refusal to comply with subpoenas related to an investigation into the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Black reportedly walked out of an initial interview and failed to appear for a second one. The committee's resolution will now advance to the full House of Representatives for consideration.
