Former Attorney General Bill Barr never saw any evidence President Donald Trump committed criminal activity during his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, Barr said Monday during a closed-door deposition with a congressional panel.

Barr, who served under Trump from 2019 to 2020, spoke with the House Oversight Committee for its investigation into deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes and the federal government’s records related to them.
