• Lexington mentioned in Epstein files released last week (lexobserver.org) — Lexington appears multiple times in newly released federal files related to Jeffrey Epstein, including repeated calls to a Lexington phone number in 2005 and references to a local publisher. The documents link Epstein’s network to area academics, some of whom have lived in town, underscoring how national scandals can brush against Lexington’s institutions and residents without yet clarifying who exactly was contacted.
