Jeffrey Epstein’s brother has asserted that forthcoming autopsy revelations will indicate that the disgraced financier was murdered in 2019, contrary to the official ruling of suicide. Epstein, who died by hanging in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York while facing sex trafficking charges, had his body identified by his sibling Mark. In a recent interview, Mark disclosed that new information will demonstrate that his brother met foul play behind bars.
During the interview with NewsNation, 71-year-old Mark stated, “Jeffrey was murdered, and additional autopsy details expected in February will substantiate that.” He highlighted discrepancies in the injuries observed on Epstein’s body and how they did not align with the hanging scenario. Following his brother’s demise, Mark enlisted the services of former NYC chief medical examiner Dr. Michael Baden to review the autopsy conducted by city authorities. Dr. Baden’s 2019 assessment pointed towards homicide as the cause of death, in contrast to the official suicide determination.
While a 2023 Department of Justice inspector general report attributed Epstein’s death to prison oversights with no external involvement, suspicions persist that he was eliminated to shield his influential connections. Mark emphasized in his NewsNation interview, “There are only three outcomes in prison: suicide, natural death, or murder. Jeff was murdered. I seek answers on who orchestrated his demise and for what purpose.”
In a related development, Ghislaine Maxwell, currently serving a 20-year sentence for her involvement in Epstein’s illicit activities, expressed skepticism about Epstein’s alleged suicide. In a testimony to deputy attorney general Todd Blanche, Maxwell stated her disbelief in the suicide narrative. When asked about potential perpetrators, she denied having any insights. Maxwell further dismissed external conspiracy theories, suggesting that if foul play were involved, it likely stemmed from internal dynamics within the prison.
Maxwell clarified that she lacked firsthand knowledge to support theories of silencing Epstein through his death and refuted blackmail allegations against him. She reasoned that if someone intended harm, opportunities outside of jail would have been more feasible. Maxwell dismissed the idea of external parties orchestrating Epstein’s demise, asserting that such actions could have been executed more effortlessly when Epstein was not incarcerated.
The statements made by both Mark Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell underscore the ongoing debate surrounding Jeffrey Epstein’s death and the persistent doubts surrounding the official findings of suicide.
