Jeff Crank

Democrats are continuing to attack Republicans over convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

House Democrats launched an attack ad on Republican Rep. Jeff Crank (Colorado) on Monday featuring the family of Virginia Giuffre, an outspoken accuser who said she was trafficked by Epstein and died by suicide last year. In the ad, Giuffre’s brother and sister-in-law, who live in Crank’s district, accused the congressman of refusing to meet with them regarding Giuffre’s case. They also note Crank’s initial vote against releasing the Justice Department’s files on Epstein, though he did support the measure after Republican leadership endorsed it.
