Mark Epstein offered up a tip to the FBI in 2023 that levied a major accusation against Donald Trump.
Jeffrey Epstein’s brother Mark has previously made it clear he does not believe the official story regarding his disgraced brother’s death.
Billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was locked in his cell at around 10.40pm on August 9, 2019 as he was awaiting trial for federal charges for the sex trafficking of minors following his arrest.
He was later found dead in his prison cell and authorities labeled it a suicide. His death came as a major surprise as he was one of the most high-profile prisoners in the US at the time.

However, many conspiracy theories have emerged following this revelation.
According to documents in the latest Epstein files releases, Mark Epstein, sent a tip to the FBI on February 22, 2023 attempting to tie Donald Trump to Epstein's death.
It read: “Jeffrey Epstein was murdered in his jail cell.
“I have reason to believe he was killed because he was about to name names. I believe Presient [sic] Trump authorized is [sic] murder.”
Trump has never been accused of wrongdoing related to Epstein’s death and It is not clear whether the FBI investigated this claim or concluded it was unsubstantiated.
The US Department of Justice issued a statement regarding accusations levied against Trump in the Epstein files and dismissed them as 'untrue and sensationalist'.
Writing on X, the statement read: “The Department of Justice has officially released nearly 30,000 more pages of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.
“Some of these documents contain untrue and sensationalist claims made against President Trump that were submitted to the FBI right before the 2020 election. To be clear: the claims are unfounded and false, and if they had a shred of credibility, they certainly would have been weaponized against President Trump already.
“Nevertheless, out of our commitment to the law and transparency, the DOJ is releasing these documents with the legally required protections for Epstein’s victims.”
As well as this, earlier this year, in hopes of offering up more transparency, the Department of Justice released the 'full raw and enhanced videos' of the CCTV footage outside of Epstein’s cell prior to his death.
However, analysis conducted by independent video forensics experts found that the file released by the DOJ was put together using at least two clips, and that it was saved multiple times before being exported.
UNILAD has contacted the White House for comment.
