June 4 (Reuters) – Casey Wasserman said on Thursday he plans to stay on as LA28’s board chair despite his past ties to convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, which were detailed earlier this year in the U.S. Justice Department files related to Jeffrey Epstein released earlier this year.
“No and yes,” Wasserman said in a press conference when asked whether he ever considered stepping down from the board and whether he had spoken to LA Mayor Karen Bass, who had called on him to resign his post in February. He said he was in regular contact with Bass.
