According to one author, Jeffrey Epstein sent out a final, unsettling message just hours before he was found dead in his jail cell.
Epstein, a convicted pedophile, was discovered deceased inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan, New York City, back in August 2019.
The official ruling from the medical examiner declared his death a suicide. However, his legal team disagreed with the finding and launched their own investigation into what really happened.
Author Michael Wolff recently claimed on the Daily Beast Podcast that he may have received the final communication from Epstein before his death, saying: “I believe that I was…I got the last message from him before he died.”
Wolff then shared more details, explaining: “His message to me hours before this happened, and it was just in response to me asking how he was, and he said: ‘Still hanging around’.”
During the podcast, host Joanna Coles asked Wolff if he thought Epstein’s last words were possibly meant to carry a hidden message. Wolff replied: “No, I don’t… I don’t know. I mean, it was in character.”
He added that Epstein had a habit of speaking in what he described as a kind of joking or sarcastic tone, even in serious situations.
However, a detailed investigation carried out by the Department of Justice and the FBI found no evidence that such a list ever existed.
As stated in a memo from the FBI and DOJ: “This systematic review revealed no incriminating ‘client list’. There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions.”
Responding to people who believe Epstein didn’t take his own life, FBI Director Kash Patel once said: “Well, I mean, listen – they have a right to their opinion, but as someone who has worked as a public defender, as a prosecutor who’s been in that prison system, who’s been in the metropolitan detention center, who’s been in segregated housing.”
“You know a suicide when you see one, and that’s what that was. He killed himself.”
