Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is facing the prospect of being held in contempt of Congress after she failed to appear for her deposition before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Wednesday for its investigation into the files related to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Clinton was scheduled to appear before the committee the day after her husband, former President Bill Clinton, also did not show up for his deposition in the investigation.
