A 2021 review commissioned by Apollo found that Black paid Epstein $158 million from 2012 to 2017, after Epstein pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting prostitution from a minor.

The phrase “Please call Leon Black” appears more than 300 times in the investigative files released by the Justice Department involving Epstein, a convicted sex offender.

Black paid Epstein $170 million over the course of five years for financial advice.
