Continued Reporting: White House Welcomes Pros to Examine Trump Card to Jeffrey Epstein to Prove It's
a Fake
USA TODAY (09/09, Garrison, Meyer) reported that the White House said it would support a professional
handwriting expert examining the signature on a note and a lewd drawing in Jeffrey Epstein's birthday book to
prove it was not written by President Donald Trump. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters
there have already been multiple forensic analyses indicating the signature was "absolutely not the president's
authentic signature." According to the article, Meredith DeKalb Miller, a former Supervisory Forensic Document
Examiner with the FBI Laboratory in Quantico, Virginia, explained that professional examiners use side-by-side
comparisons of features such as spacing, size, slant, letter formation, and alignment to determine authenticity and
have provided expert testimony in court for decades. The article noted that Trump has sued the Wall Street Journal
for defamation over its reporting on the letter, while some analyses have pointed out similarities between the
signature in the Epstein book and Trump's letters from the 1980s and 1990s. It added that DeKalb Miller declined to
speculate on the authenticity of the signature, emphasizing that professional examiners rely on a standardized
probability scale to reach their conclusions. The Hill (09/09, Samuels) added that the White House has denied that
President Trump was an FBI informant in the Jeffrey Epstein case. The denial comes after Speaker Mike Johnson
suggested Trump may have been an informant, but Johnson has since clarified that he may have misspoken.
