Another one bites the dust......Larry Summers is retiring......because of his ties to Epstein. [View all]
Former US treasury secretary and onetime Harvard president Larry Summers is retiring from his roles at the Ivy League university over its review into his ties with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Harvard said it had accepted Summers' resignation as co-director of the Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government and that he would retire from his other academic and faculty posts.
Last year, Summers expressed "regret" over his links with Epstein, while addressing students in a class he had been teaching at Harvard.
Released emails had indicated that he corresponded with Epstein until the day before the financier's 2019 arrest for the alleged sex trafficking of children.
No Epstein survivor has accused Summers of misconduct, and there is no publicly available evidence indicating that he was involved in any of Epstein's crimes.
Harvard said in a statement that Summers' exit was "in connection with the ongoing review by the University of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein".
