NBC News – Oversight democrat says he looks forward to Black coming back to testify under oath

After Black left his Oversight Committee interview, ranking member Robert Garcia said he looks “forward to Leon Black coming back under oath and answering all of our questions.”

“This is why under oath depositions are so important, because these transcribed interviews provide these witnesses the opportunity to say that they were not under oath, they may not answer questions,” Garcia said.

Black appeared voluntarily today but was subpoenaed by Comer during his interview for a deposition July 16.

“This is also the first time I heard someone gush poetically about how smart and how great Jeffrey Epstein was,” Rep. Suhas Subramanyam said. “He did that during the interview today, and then right off the bat he said that he would not answer questions about his sex life or about his personal life or about any of the sexual assault or abuse allegations, except to say they didn’t happen.”
