Survivors protested at OSU's board meeting, demanding answers about Les Wexner’s alleged knowledge of doctor Strauss’s abuse and his resistance to a subpoena.

Survivors of former Ohio State University doctor Richard Strauss’s sexual abuse protested at a Dec. 4, 2025, Board of Trustees meeting, demanding answers about billionaire Les Wexner’s alleged knowledge of the abuse. Wexner, a former OSU trustee and major donor linked to Jeffrey Epstein, is resisting a subpoena to testify in the ongoing lawsuit, while his longtime lawyer, John Zeiger, chairs the board and declined to comment. Protesters highlighted Wexner’s ties to Epstein and questioned conflicts of interest, as the House has voted to compel release of Epstein-related DOJ documents, though the Trump administration has not complied.
