New York Judge Unseals Alleged Epstein Suicide Note After Years of Secrecy

A federal judge has unsealed an alleged suicide note from Epstein, as ongoing questions about his death continue to stir public speculation.

A federal judge in New York City has mandated the release of a document purported to be a suicide note authored by Jeffrey Epstein, almost seven years following his death in prison.

On Wednesday, Judge Kenneth Karas unsealed the handwritten note, which is still unverified.

The document was allegedly uncovered following Epstein’s unconscious state in his prison cell in July 2019, mere weeks prior to his death at the Metropolitan Correctional Center.

The note opens with a mention of a prior inquiry into Epstein.

“They conducted an investigation into me for months and found nothing!!!”

It subsequently takes on a more contemplative tone, expressing:

“It is a privilege to have the opportunity to select the moment to bid farewell.”

The concluding lines feature the underlined phrases:

“NOT ENJOYABLE”
“NOT WORTH IT!”

The note’s authenticity remains unverified by independent sources. Prosecutors indicated that the US Justice Department had not encountered the document before.

Nicholas Tartaglione, Epstein’s former cellmate, informed reporters that he discovered a note concealed within a graphic novel shortly after Epstein was taken from the cell following what authorities characterized as an apparent suicide attempt.

Tartaglione, who has refuted the allegations of assaulting Epstein, stated that he subsequently provided the note to his legal representatives. Court records indicate that the document was incorporated into a legal dispute and remained sealed for several years due to attorney-client privilege protections.

On 10 August 2019, Epstein was discovered deceased. The New York medical examiner classified the death as a suicide; however, the circumstances surrounding it have sparked ongoing speculation and numerous conspiracy theories.
