I don't think the lede is that he's giving back the money now that all of this has become public. I think the lede is that Ito raised money, coinvested with and visited multiple homes of Epstein after Epstein became a convicted sex offender.

Perhaps, though as Ito is the author here, perhaps the author's title "My apology regarding Jeffrey Epstein" is more appropriate?
