President Donald Trump on Wednesday told reporters that Virginia Giuffre may have been one of several employees at his Mar-a-Lago club who were "stolen" by Epstein.

The family urged the president against affording any leniency to the disgraced financier's accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.

"It makes us ask if he was aware of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's criminal actions," the family said in a statement.
