Casey Wasserman, chair of the LA28 Organizing Committee, plans to sell his talent agency after court records linked to Jeffrey Epstein became public and revealed email correspondence between Wasserman and Ghislaine Maxwell.
Officials released the documents through legal proceedings connected to the Epstein case.
Wasserman has led planning efforts for the 2028 Summer Olympics since Los Angeles secured the Games. His agency, Wasserman, represents clients in sports, entertainment, and media.
The released material includes email exchanges between Wasserman and Maxwell. Epstein faced federal sex trafficking charges before his death in 2019 while in custody. Maxwell later received a federal conviction for sex trafficking and related crimes tied to Epstein.
Media organizations and legal observers are reviewing the correspondence. The records show written communication between Wasserman and Maxwell but do not indicate criminal charges against Wasserman, and authorities have not announced any investigation involving him.
Wasserman announced his intention to sell the agency after the emails entered the public record. He did not disclose terms of the planned sale, potential buyers, the structure of a deal, or a projected closing date.
The LA28 organizing committee continues to oversee planning, sponsorships, venue coordination, and public engagement for the Games. The International Olympic Committee recognizes the local organizing committee as its primary partner in staging the event. Available public information shows no change to Wasserman’s leadership role, and no organization has announced adjustments to his responsibilities.
The Wasserman agency operates in athlete representation, brand consulting, and media property management and works with major sports leagues and marketing partners. A sale would shift ownership of the firm founded by Wasserman.
Courts continue to release records from civil and criminal cases associated with Epstein and Maxwell. The documents reference individuals from business, politics, academia, and entertainment, though not all named parties face allegations of criminal conduct. Review of the materials remains ongoing.
