Overview
- Justice Department records detail 2013 travel plans, a thank‑you note confirming a visit to Epstein’s Caribbean island, an assistant’s email referencing “which flight Dean prefers the girls to be on,” and a declined invitation to Epstein’s ranch.
- Sequel Med Tech said its board hired an external law firm to examine the disclosures and noted that Kamen has recused himself from oversight of the special committee.
- FIRST, the youth robotics nonprofit founded by Kamen, engaged outside counsel for an independent review and announced Kamen’s immediate leave from its board, which he described as voluntary.
- ARMI’s board was reported to be convening to consider next steps, while DEKA and BETA Technologies did not respond to questions about their plans.
- Kamen has not been accused of wrongdoing and says his interactions were limited and he had no knowledge of Epstein’s crimes, with records also showing he rejected an anonymous donation, hired pilot Nadia Marcinko as a flight instructor, and appeared in previously released photos with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
