Federal and local prosecutors examined sexual abuse allegations against Leon Black.
Neither office brought charges, and Black's attorney said the allegations were false.
The Apollo ex-CEO was one of Jeffrey Epstein's biggest benefactors until their relationship ended.
In the wake of Jeffrey Epstein's 2019 death, prosecutors examined sexual assault claims against one of his most powerful associates: Leon Black.
The Justice Department's newly released Epstein files show prosecutors looked at allegations from at least four women who accused the billionaire former CEO of Apollo Global Management the key source of Epstein's wealth in the last decade of his life of sexual assault and other misconduct.
Neither the local Manhattan district attorney's office nor the federal US Attorney's office for the Southern District of New York the two departments examining the accusations against Black brought charges against him.
The newly public files include dozens of emails, internal memos, and records of calls with lawyers for Black's accusers going back to 2019. They include the first known instance that prosecutors investigated whether there was wrongdoing related to Black.
