LA Olympics chief says he ‘deeply regrets’ emails with Ghislaine Maxwell

Casey Wasserman, head of the LA Olympics organizing committee, expressed regret over emails exchanged with Ghislaine Maxwell in 2003, revealed in recently released government files related to Jeffrey Epstein. The emails contained suggestive and flirtatious content from both parties. Wasserman stated the correspondence occurred before Maxwell's crimes were known and that he never had a personal or business relationship with Epstein, aside from a humanitarian trip in 2002. Maxwell was convicted in 2021 on sex trafficking charges and is serving a 20-year sentence. The documents were released due to a law mandating the disclosure of files related to Epstein and Maxwell. Wasserman's role in bringing the 2028 Olympics to Los Angeles has recently brought him increased public attention.
