“吕梅尔欢迎有机会在委员会面前作证,”发言人詹妮弗·康奈利(Jennifer Connelly)在一份声明中表示。

“她没有做错任何事,也不知道他有任何持续的犯罪活动。”

康奈利补充说,吕梅尔在与爱泼斯坦接触时是一名执业刑事辩护律师,并且曾与他有共同客户。

今年2月,高盛首席执行官大卫·所罗门(David Solomon)表示,吕梅尔已辞去首席法务官一职。吕梅尔在另一份声明中表示,她将于6月离开公司。

吕梅尔曾是这家华尔街公司的高管之一,她的离职是美国司法部最新公布爱泼斯坦相关文件后最受关注的银行业高管离职事件。

“She has done nothing wrong and had no knowledge of any ongoing criminal activity on ​his part.”

Ruemmler was a practicing criminal defence ​attorney at the time of her interactions with Epstein, and ‌shared ⁠a client with him, Connelly added.

In February, David Solomon, the chief executive of Goldman Sachs, said Ruemmler had resigned from the role ​of chief ​legal officer. ⁠Ruemmler said in a separate statement she would leave the firm in ​June.

The departure of Ruemmler, once among ​the ⁠top executive officers of the Wall Street firm, is the most high-profile banking exit after ⁠the ​DoJ’s latest release of Epstein ​documents.
