Furious Hillary Clinton calls halt to deposition after unauthorised photo leak

Hillary Clinton called her Jeffrey Epstein deposition to a halt after discovering a picture of her at the hearing had been leaked online.

On Thursday (26 February) Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, testified separately about their ties to the disgraced billionaire.

Footage released by the House Oversight committee on Monday (2 March) showed Clinton’s furious reaction after one of her lawyers informed her that a photograph of her from inside the deposition room had been leaked to the public and shared by conservative influencer Benny Johnson.

“I’m done with this if you guys are doing that, I am done. You can hold me in contempt from now until the cows come home,” said Clinton, banging the table with her palm before standing up from her chair.
