(2-14-26) Ohio Republican Senator Jon Husted over the years has accepted $116,892 from Les Wexner between 2001 and 2025, according to Federal Election Commission and Ohio Secretary of State campaign finance records reviewed by TiffinOhio.net—- Husted took donations from Epstein ‘co-conspirator’ Les Wexner, then voted to block file release

Wexner is the founder of Victoria’s Secret parent company L Brands, was publicly identified this week as a “co-conspirator” of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in FBI documents.

Husted took $3,500 from Wexner as recently as July 3, 2025 — just two months before voting on September 10, 2025 to block a bipartisan Senate amendment that would have directed the Attorney General to publicly release documents related to Epstein.

In November 2025, Husted characterized the Epstein files as primarily a Democratic issue.

“The more we learn about the transparency of the Epstein files, the more it shows that Democrats are the ones that had the strong relationships with them,”

Husted said on Fox Business’ “The Evening Edit” on November 19, 2025.

Husted has not commented on the current situation.
