US Court Releases Alleged Epstein Suicide Note Following Failed Attempt

US Judge Releases Alleged Suicide Note from Jeffrey Epstein

A US judge has released an alleged suicide note purportedly written by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein weeks before his death in a New York jailhouse. The letter was found in a book following a failed suicide attempt by the disgraced financier, several weeks before his eventual August 2019 death.

The text of the letter reads, “They investigated me for months – Found NOTHING!!!” It also states, “It is a treat to be able to choose one’s time to say goodbye.” The note concludes with, “Watcha want me to do – Bust out cryin!! No fun – NOT WORTH IT!!”

The letter had been sealed for years as part of the cellmate’s criminal proceedings but was released by Judge Kenneth Karas of the US District Court for Southern New York after a request from the New York Times. While not authenticated, its release comes amid ongoing questions about Epstein’s death while awaiting sex trafficking charges.

His death was ruled a suicide, yet numerous security lapses at the jail and missing CCTV footage have led to persistent doubts about the official account. The letter was purportedly written before an earlier incident in late July 2019 when Epstein was found injured in his cell, leading officials to say it was a failed suicide attempt.
