The article "The Untold Story of Jeffrey Epstein's Death “ was found in the June 28 ,2026 edition of The New York Times. I was neither surprised about the way the case was handled, nor the findings about his death. Was it suicide; was it murder or was it assisted suicide ? Will the truth ever be known?
Epstein was arrested on July 6, 2019 by FBI agents in New Jersey. He was driven to Manhattan and placed at the (MCC) Metropolitan Correctional Center. This facility was an overcrowded federal jail noted for its poor conditions and dysfunction. It was squalid and crumbling, posted as a safety and security threat to inmates and employees and was closed in 2021.
The building was stifling hot in the winter and freezing cold in the summer. Many of the MCC's correction officers' had second jobs and were found sleeping on this job. Many worked over time ; there were many absences along with understaffing. In fact, there were untrained personnel like teachers ,nurses, clerical workers and other non -qualified’s filling in.
Why was Epstein held in this facility for 35 days ? Why did it fall upon Congress to release more than 3 million pages of Epstein photos and documents ? And, why was Epstein placed alone in a cell without 24 hour video surveillance ? Was it incompetence , nefariousness and/or a combination of the two ?
There were many quotes ,in the article , made regarding Epstein's mental state from multiple guards ,employees and fellow inmates. Some were made by inmates in other cell locations. There were no descriptions of their mental health training or even credibility for the various opinions from these inmates. Their motives were based on ? How truthful were their individual comments ? And ,some guards were fearful that Epstein might report them unfavorably. In fact, one inmate's testimony was relied upon credibly by the federal investigators but that individual died shortly thereafter.
Epstein was not monitored appropriately and he was not supposed to be in the cell alone. In fact, US marshals notified the authorities that his cellmate was being taken and transferred. Still, he was left alone in his cell and found dead. Also,evidence from his cell was not cataloged well and photographs and objects were at odds with the autopsy report . At a court hearing , a US marshall noted he had”suicidal tendencies” yet was left alone with dysfunctional video monitoring.
A significant number of video cameras were not working at the time of his death. However, two out of 11 were working . Video coverage of his two jailers revealed that they did not properly monitor him. One had not received proper training and she lied about her monitoring of Epstein during the shift in question.
Epstein was supposed to be monitored every 30 minutes. The video of the other guard that found Epstein dead was found to be sleeping during his shift . It appeared from the video that both guards were found to be motionless at times. And ,that sleepy guard was not easily awakened.
A psychologist placed Epstein under suicide watch and then reported that he was acting during interviews . He also denied suicide intent. He said to the psychologist “Being alive is fun.”
The following is not associated with suicide behavior .1.There was no suicide note . 2. The evening of his death, Epstein called his girlfriend , told her he would not be able to call her for about a month ,that she should be strong and that he loved her . He also said ,”they are trying to keep me safe.” 3. He also told the guard to make sure that his CPAP breathing device was working in order to help him sleep.
The death scene was contaminated by MCC staff and paramedics; the wrong rope was placed into evidence; DNA was omitted- but routinely collected in suicide death occurances; with the absence of staff and inmate interviewing. Also,an assumption was made regarding the identification of a person from an orange blur on video recording that was found in the pathology report.
The pathologist retired and said that she gave an interpretive opinion and that Epstein might not have died from suicide . Other pathologists were surprised there wasn't a murder investigation t . And, that limited evidence was associated with strangulation- 3 bone and cartilage fractures in his neck were difficult to interpret .There were also discrepancies between the noose that was logged into evidence and the marks on Epstein’s neck. Further,items from the cell had been thrown away. Why wasn't this case treated as a homicide, stated one objective pathologist ?
Many inmates,jail employees,lawyers,federal officials and law enforcement officers had not been interviewed during Trump’s Justice Department” investigation” regarding the death .And others involved refused to talk with the reporters .The government also had hidden from view an alleged “suicide” note.
A number of notes apparently written by Epstein were found .These notes were riddled with idiosyncratic capitalization ;punctuation and not complete thoughts. The last note was described as resembling his other notes.
It's clear ,based upon this article, that the Trump government's handling of Jeffrey Epstein' death was suspicious and troublesome to say the least. I do not trust the pathological liar Trump nor his loyal flunkies with the truth associated with anything that has to do with Epstein. Trump has been a master when it comes to his distortion of reality . And has used his power to continue, mislead ,distort and cover-up the truth .
