Lloyd Blankfein, former CEO of Goldman Sachs, appears in the Epstein documents primarily through repeated mentions in articles about lawyer Reid Weingarten, who represented both Blankfein and reportedly had breakfast meetings at Epstein's residence.
Blankfein is not directly connected to Epstein in these documents. He appears exclusively as a past client of defense attorney Reid Weingarten, who is described meeting with Epstein. The mentions span scanned emails and government records from 2016, mostly duplicate copies of the same articles. One document from Michael Wolff's book 'Fire and Fury' mentions Blankfein in an unrelated context about Gary Cohn's ambitions at Goldman Sachs. A 2017 cryptocurrency timeline document briefly references a Blankfein tweet about Bitcoin.
Key Highlights
- •All mentions are indirect - Blankfein appears only as a former client of Reid Weingarten, the lawyer meeting with Epstein
- •The primary source is a repeated article describing Weingarten having breakfast at Epstein's residence, where Blankfein is listed among Weingarten's notable clients including Bernie Ebbers
- •Weingarten is described as 'one of attorney general Eric Holder's closest friends' in several versions of the article
- •No evidence of direct contact, correspondence, or meetings between Blankfein and Epstein in any documents
- •The mentions appear across multiple document IDs but represent the same underlying articles duplicated in the archive
