INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY

Doug Band, also known as Douglas Jay Band, is a former senior aide and advisor to President Bill Clinton. He has emerged as a significant figure of interest in the congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. On March 3, 2026, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer formally requested Band appear for a transcribed interview on May 5, 2026, as part of the Committee's review of the federal government's alleged mismanagement of its investigation into Epstein and Maxwell. The Committee stated it believes Band has information relevant to its inquiry based on public reporting, DOJ-released documents, and materials obtained independently by the Committee. DOJ flight logs released as part of the Epstein Files Transparency Act show Band took over 35 flights with Epstein and Maxwell between 2002 and 2005, including at least two flights in which he, Epstein, and Maxwell were the only listed passengers. Band also appears in at least 33 documents released in January 2026, having previously appeared in nine documents released in December 2025. Maxwell described a 2002 or 2003 trip to South America involving herself, Clinton, and Band in a July 2025 interview released by the DOJ. Separately, documents reveal Band exchanged at least 21 flirtatious emails with Maxwell, including a 2004 exchange where Maxwell described planning activities with him. An official memo lists Band as having "pertinent information" regarding Epstein's criminal case, placing him alongside figures such as former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Les Wexner. Band issued a public statement in February 2026 denying any physical relationship with Maxwell, characterizing her as "a monster," and noting that his communications with her occurred when he was in his late 20s and unmarried. Band also sat on the University of Florida presidential search committee as of December 2025, a position that drew scrutiny following the Epstein document releases. No criminal charges have been filed against Band.
