Jeffrey Epstein’s brother reveals evidence he claims cops are covering up about his death

Warning: This article contains references to suicidee

Mark Epstein, the brother of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, has shared some evidence about the circumstances surrounding his brother's death.

Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his cell in New York in 2019 while awaiting trial for charges relating to sex trafficking.

The medical examiner ruled that the death was a suicide, but Mark is now campaigning to have more information surrounding the death to be made public.

This includes CCTV footage from the cell block where Epstein, aged 66, was being held.

He told the New York Post: “I only want to look at facts, but when we consider the facts available we get more questions.

“There appears to have been no investigation once it was ruled a suicide, they saw no reason to dig deeper. It seems like a cover up. Why can’t I find his pre-hospital care report and why can’t I get the 911 call?”

Among the evidence is the injuries on Epstein's neck, which were 'extremely unusual' in suicides by hanging.

Mark claims that they were more consistent with those which might be found in a 'homicidal strangulation'.

An autopsy confirmed that Epstein had been dead for at least two hours before his body was found, and may have been dead for as long as six hours.

A psychological evaluation had also suggested that Epstein should have been placed with a cellmate as a measure to prevent a suicide attempt, but he was instead housed alone.

The former financier had reportedly said that he was "going to kill himself because the government is trying to kill him anyway.”

Mark told journalist Declan Hill on the Crimewaves podcast: “They had a hearing which was coming up a few days after his death to appeal the bail restrictions … why would Jeffrey kill himself a few days before that hearing?

"Because if he got bail he’d be out of jail, awaiting trial in his house with an ankle monitor."

He added: “Why kill yourself then? If bail was denied again, then I could understand it. Believe me it would have been easier if [the pathologists] had come out and said ‘it looks like a suicide’, then I could put this whole issue behind me."

Epstein has once again been making headlines in recent weeks after a list of people connected to him was published in connection with a lawsuit brought against Ghislaine Maxwell.

The list included high profile names such as Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, and Donald Trump.
