House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) on Monday sent a subpoena to the estate of sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein for documents and communications that it may have in its custody.

The Oversight panel’s subpoena, signed by Comer, shows the committee is seeking records that could shed light on Epstein’s activities, while the panel said that it is trying to obtain a book that was allegedly prepared by his former girlfriend and associate Ghislaine Maxwell—who is currently serving out a 20-year prison term—for Epstein’s 50th birthday.
