PHOENIX (AP) — Police records show that a longtime aide to former President Donald Trump was arrested in 2021 after he was accused of repeatedly groping two women in a nightclub in Scottsdale, Arizona. Boris Epshteyn pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct charges in Scottsdale city court after prosecutors dropped charges of attempted sexual abuse, assault-touching and “harass-repeated acts.” He paid a fine and served probation, and his conviction was set aside earlier this year. The arrest was first reported Thursday by The Arizona Republic. Epshteyn declined to comment when contacted by The Associated Press. He is currently advising Trump’s 2024 presidential bid.
