Jeffrey Epstein's newly-revealed private calendar showed scheduled meetings with the current CIA director, a college president and attorney who served in the Obama administration, according to a report published Sunday.
All the scheduled meetings were slated to take place after Epstein was jailed in 2008 on charges of solicitation, including soliciting a minor.
A spokesperson for Burns, who has taken the CIA's helm since 2021 under the Biden administration, said the nation's spy chief met with Epstein a decade ago when he was trying to leave the government.
Ruemmler had dozens of meetings with Epstein following her work for the Obama administration and before taking the reins as Goldman Sachs' top lawyer in 2020, according to WSJ. The documents show Epstein was planning on Ruemmler joining him for a trip to Paris in 2015 and another visit to his private island in the Caribbean in 2017.
A Goldman Sachs rep told the outlet that Ruemmler had a working relationship with Epstein when she was employed at law firm Latham & Watkins LLP, but did not travel with Epstein.
The spokesperson said Epstein introduced Ruemmler to potential legal clients, such as Bill Gates.
"I regret ever knowing Jeffrey Epstein," Ruemmler said, according to WSJ. The Journal reported that the majority of people they spoke to said they met with Epstein for donations or to make powerful connections.
