Former Attorney General William Barr Says He Didn't See Trump Implicated In Epstein Files
WASHINGTON — Former Attorney General William Barr told lawmakers on Monday that President Donald Trump isn't implicated in the government's investigation into sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Barr sat for an hourslong deposition after receiving a subpoena from the House Oversight Committee last month amid a furor over the Trump administration's refusal to release its files from its investigation of Epstein's crimes. 'What Attorney General Barr testified in there was that he never had conversations with President Trump pertaining to a client list. He didn't know anything about a client list,' House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) told reporters outside the deposition room. High-profile Trump supporters, including top officials in his administration, have previously speculated that the government has a list of Epstein's clients that hasn't seen the light of day because powerful people whose names appear on the list have conspired to keep the material hidden. Trump's current attorney general, Pam Bondi, said earlier this year that she had the client list literally sitting on her desk. In July, however, the Justice Department said there was no client list, no conspiracy to hide incriminating material and no reason to release any further information about the Epstein case. Related: Trump was friends with Epstein for years, and his name is reportedly mentioned repeatedly in the government's Epstein files, but Barr said that if there was anything truly damaging, it would have come out already. 'He said that he had never seen anything that would implicate President Trump in any of this, and that he believed if there had been anything pertaining to President Trump, with respect to the Epstein list, that he felt like the Biden administration would have probably leaked it out,' Comer said Monday. Related: Barr was attorney general when Epstein died in prison in 2019 after being arrested and charged with sex trafficking of minors. Epstein had previously been arrested in 2006, but struck a sweetheart deal with federal prosecutors to avoid federal charges. The Justice Department then indicted him in 2019 after the scale of his crimes came to wider attention. The following year, the department issued a memo criticizing its prior refusal to prosecute Epstein. Related: Comer's committee issued subpoenas for Barr and other former attorneys general as part of a batch also targeting former first couple Bill and Hillary Clinton. The subpoenas were approved on a bipartisan basis last month during a surprising subcommittee vote. House Democrats said Barr's testimony on Monday left them with more questions about the Trump administration's refusal this year to release its files from the case. Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) said it appeared Republicans conducted the deposition in a half-hearted manner. 'The question is if they are truly invested in doing what's right and making sure that there's real transparency for the American people,' Crockett told reporters. 'Right now, it doesn't seem like that. It seems like they are going through the motions, and they want people to believe that they are digging in. But at the end of the day, I don't think that we've learned anything through the Republican questioning.' Related: Comer said his committee's Epstein investigation was bipartisan and that he wished Democrats wouldn't 'politicize' things. He also said he believed his subpoena for the actual Epstein files would be successful. 'I'm under the impression that they're gathering all these documents, and that's what the subpoena called for,' Comer said. 'And I think the administration knows this is what Congress wants, Republicans and Democrats. And I think President Trump has said clearly [that] he wants to release all the documents. So we're going to get the documents.' Related...

Israeli Cyber Official Arrested During Undercover Internet Crimes Against Children Sting
A high-ranking member of Israel's cybersecurity directorate was recently arrested in Las Vegas as part of an undercover sting operation involving internet crimes against children, according to the State Department. A joint operation between city police and the FBI that targeted child sex predators resulted in the arrest of Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, a man who, according to many news outlets, has been identified as a member of Israel's National Cyber Directorate, which operates out of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office. Mediate previously reported that Alexandrovich's since-deleted LinkedIn profile had also identified him as an official with the agency. The Jerusalem Post claims that Alexandrovich worked 'in a technical role at the Cyber Directorate,' and KLAS-TV, a CBS news affiliate, also claims to have confirmed that an 'Israeli government official was one of eight people arrested' during the weekend sting, and that Alexandrovich was in the city for 'a cyber event.' Blackhat, the well-known cybersecurity conference, recently took place in Vegas. Additionally, the U.S. government appears to have confirmed much of this information. The X account for the State Department's Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs posted about the arrest, in an apparent effort to dispel internet rumors that the government had intervened on Alexandrovich's behalf. 'The Department of State is aware that Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, an Israeli citizen, was arrested in Las Vegas and given a court date for charges related to soliciting sex electronically from a minor,' the post states. 'He did not claim diplomatic immunity and was released by a state judge pending a court date. Any claims that the U.S. government intervened are false.' When reached for comment by Gizmodo, the State Department simply referred us to its tweet. Alexandrovich faces a charge of luring a child with a computer for sex acts, KLAS writes. He was allowed to leave after having posted a $10,000 bail, the outlet adds, citing court records. An archived Haaretz report states that a 'senior official in Israel's National Cyber Directorate' had been questioned in Vegas for alleged online solicitation of a minor, but does not identify the official by name. However, the report also includes a statement from Israel's cyber directorate, which admits that one of its employees was questioned by authorities during a trip to the U.S. The statement reads: 'The employee updated the directorate that during his trip to the United States, he was questioned by U.S. authorities on matters unrelated to his work, and he returned to Israel on his scheduled date. The directorate has not yet received additional details through official channels. If and when such details are received, the directorate will act accordingly.' Gizmodo reached out to the Las Vegas Police Department and the Israeli government for more information.

Colorado personal trainer convicted of sexual assault of a child
A personal trainer in Colorado was convicted by a jury last week of multiple charges related to sexual assault of minors who were athletes at his Parker gym. In 2022, Parker police arrested personal trainer Aaron Carrado for sexually assaulting one of the kids he was training. At the time, they were looking for other possible victims. On Thursday, a jury found him guilty of 12 charges, including six counts of "sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust as a pattern of abuse." Danielle Jaramillo, chief deputy district attorney of the family violence unit in Colorado's 23rd Judicial District, says it was the courage of Carrado's victims that put him behind bars. "I was super relieved for these victims," Jaramillo said. "I felt like- they felt that their voices were really heard, so I was really, really relieved for them and for the community." Jaramillo says when she went to trial in the case against Carrado, getting a conviction was important to her. "The concern was that he would get right back out in the public, feel emboldened with what he did, felt like no one cared enough to convict him of that," she said. "I think (acquittals) really emboldened sex offenders to believe that what they did wasn't wrong, and that it's okay to continue to do things like that." In 2022, Carrado was charged with four counts of sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust, four counts of unlawful sexual contact, and two counts of sexual exploitation of a child. Police alleged that he assaulted teen athletes he was supposed to be training at his gym, "Strength in Christ," among other locations. His now ex-wife says she found a phone with explicit messages between him and his young clients. She's the one who turned him in to law enforcement. Carrado then fled to Montana. Jarmillo says the evidence Carrado's ex-wife provided helped bolster the case against him. "We had DNA testing done, we had a lot of forensic analysis done on different phones that we received, both from the defendant as well as from the victim," she said. But Jaramillo says she thinks it was the courage of his victims, who are now adults, that swayed the jury and led to Carrado's conviction: "They just did an incredible job on the witness stand." Carrado is now facing 8 years to life in prison. He's 51 now, and Jaramillo says she would want a sentence that keeps him in jail for the rest of his life. Ultimately, however, his fate lies in the hands of a judge. Carrado will be sentenced on Nov. 13.
