The long-awaited Jeffery Epstein client list is slowly being made public. Epstein is the notorious and now-deceased sex trafficker who died in August 2019 under suspicious circumstances while awaiting trial in a New York jail. The drip of information seems to note a connection between late-night host Jimmy Kimmel and former Epstein chef, Adam Perry Lang.
The Post Millennial reported that Kimmel recently publicly disparaged Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers for desiring to know who had connections to the financier and sex trafficker.
Doubling down, Kimmel labeled Rodgers a conspiracy theorist for suggesting Epstein’s client list should be made public. Kimmel awkwardly made the comments as he hosted last week’s Academy Awards.
Hobby-level investigators discovered the tie between Epstein, Lang and Kimmel. The Daily Wire’s Brett Cooper later profiled the story.
The Post Millennial reported that Lang was featured multiple times on Kimmel’s Instagram account, and the two were seen together at the 2023 Super Bowl and Oscars.
A 2019 Eater report profiled Lang’s employment with Epstein. In that report, Lang affirmed:
“Almost 20 years ago, as a young chef, I was hired to work for Jeffrey Epstein. My role was limited to meal preparation. I was unaware of the depraved behavior and have great sympathy and admiration for the brave women who have come forward.”
Lang’s legal representative noted: “No further comment will be issued” regarding Lang’s relationship with Epstein.
Unsealed court documents reveal that Lang flew with Epstein on a private jet several times in 2000 and 2001. Destinations included the famed Epstein Island in the Virgin Islands and homes in Santa Fe and Palm Beach.
The report in Eater also notes that Lang and the private plane pilot often stayed with Epstein at his Manhattan residence on East 71st Street.
Rodgers claimed that Lang flew with Epstein six times and at least once with Epstein’s partner in crime, Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year sentence in federal prison.
In December 2020, Epstein’s pilot said Lang was on board the private jet with Epstein, Virginia Giuffre, MIT professor Marvin Minsky and Maxwell from Teterboro. The plane reportedly flew to Little Saint James in the Virgin Islands.
Eater also noted that during a September 2020 episode of the podcast “Broken: Seeking Justice,” hosted by Tara Palmeri, Lang claimed Giuffre attempted to contact him to discuss “what he may have witnessed” during his employment and travel with Epstein.
During that podcast, Lang declared, “he never witnessed any sexual activity or nudity and was unaware of any underage girls.”
Giuffre, however, reported that “Lang served naked girls who were on the property iced tea, water, and fruit platters,” according to Eater.
Later, Palmeri and Giuffre attempted to deliver a letter to Lang, urging him to assist Epstein’s victims.
The Post Millennial posted an excerpt from the letter:
“I’m sure you’ve heard of Epstein’s short incarceration and subsequential death. He’s gone now. He can’t hurt us anymore, but as you know, it wasn’t just Epstein running the most prolific sex trafficking ring of modern times. He had help, lots of help.
That alone leaves me and his uncountable victims searching for justice. Justice comes in many forms. In my case, justice is holding the various perpetrators that participated, enabled, or looked the other way, accountable.”
“I’m not here to ruin your life. You have so much knowledge of the various people on the planes and his homes and anywhere you would have been with him. You truly can’t say you didn’t know or you can’t remember.
You didn’t help when Brad Edwards and I reached out to you in 2014. Jeffrey was alive then and I get it. Maybe you were scared of him. We all were. You have the ability and frankly, the responsibility, to help now.”
“By helping us victims and speaking out with us, not only will you redeem yourself, but you will truly elevate yourself to the status of hero, which is exactly what you could be for me. A hero. I have such fond memories of staying up late, we’d talk, we’d laugh. I consider you my friend, and I hope I still can.”
Reportedly, when Palmeri and Giuffre attempted to hand deliver the letter, they were told Lang was not there. They later discovered Lang was staying with Kimmel at his Hermosa Beach, Calif., home.
Lang’s attorney followed up with a statement:
“We have absolutely always been available to the attorneys for the lawyers representing the victims — indeed, we reached out and spoke to one of them many months ago but although we invited a meeting with Adam in no uncertain terms, those attorneys have literally never gotten back to us (although we did hear from other counsel this week).
“That said, we are in current contact with the federal prosecutors in the Southern District of NY and are fully cooperating with their investigation and remain more than happy to, in coordination with the prosecutors, cooperate with counsel for the victims as well.”
