Bill Clinton's 'special advisor' who let Jeffrey Epstein into the White House dies at 59
Bill Clinton’s former special advisor, Mark Middleton passed
away Saturday at the age of 59 as confirmed by his family.
Middleton is known for cementing the former president’s
friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.
The cause of his death was not confirmed. Middleton ran an
air conditioning business in Little Rock, Arkansas for decades before becoming
a special advisor to Clinton and financial director for his Presidential Campaign.
“The Middleton family has lost an inspiring and dedicated
leader, as well as a son, brother, husband, and father,” wrote a representative
of Middleton Heat & Hair in a Facebook post.
“Mark leaves behind a company that he helped build from the
ground up alongside his family and was proud to run for the last 25 years.
"No words can express our sadness over this loss or our
gratitude for your support and prayers during this time".
During his time with Clinton, he reportedly invited Epstein
to the White House for at least seven of Epstein’s 17 visits.
Middleton may have also flown on Epstein’s plane and
connected the two powerful men.
He was also a managing partner of the MidCorp Capital
investment firm and worked on multiple nonprofit foundations.
While assisting President Clinton, Middleton also worked
under then-chief of staff, Thomas “Mack” McCarty.
In February 1995, Middleton left the White House. The
following year, an investigation by the White House found that he had abused
his access to impress business clients and he was barred from the property
without senior approval.
He would deny these claims.
Middleton is survived by his wife Rhea; his two daughters
Lindsay and Lauren; father Charles Middleton; mother Anita Middleton-Kellar;
brother Steven Middleton and sister Sandra Leeann Middleton-Marshall.
Instead of flowers, the Middleton family is asking mourners
to donate to Navigate Counseling and Wellness, a service that specializes in
counseling and therapy in connection with the New Life Church.
