Clinton stated that if he had known Epstein's crimes earlier, he would have firmly reported them.

Former US President Bill Clinton said today: "As someone who grew up in an environment of domestic violence, if I had any idea about what Epstein did, I would not only not have taken his plane — I would have personally reported him and led the call for a fair trial for his crimes, rather than allowing a cover-up deal."

Comment: Clinton's statement clearly aims to cut ties, distance himself, and clean his image. He uses his personal background to appeal emotionally, emphasizing that he was unaware of Epstein's crimes, which is essentially an attempt to clear himself in the public storm and avoid being dragged into deeper scandals.
