Medical examiner confirms that Jeffrey Epstein’s death was a suicide by hanging
NEW YORK — Jeffrey Epstein's prison death has been confirmed a suicide by hanging, the medical examiner's office said Friday.
Messages seeking comment were left for Epstein's lawyers. An office telephone number for Dr. Michael Baden, the pathologist hired by Epstein's representatives to observe the autopsy, rang unanswered. Attorney General William Barr says officials have uncovered"serious irregularities" at the jail. The FBI and the Justice Department's inspector general are both investigating Epstein's death.
U.S. District Judge Richard Berman, who is in charge of the criminal case against Epstein, asked the jail's warden this week for answers about the earlier episode, writing in a letter Monday that it had"never been definitively explained." The Washington Post and The New York Times reported Thursday that the autopsy revealed that several bones in Epstein's neck had been broken, leading to speculation his death was a homicide.
He owned a private island in the Caribbean, homes in Paris and New York City, a New Mexico ranch, and a fleet of high-price cars. His friends had once included Britain's Prince Andrew, Clinton and Trump. Clinton and Trump both said they hadn't seen Epstein in years and knew nothing of his alleged misconduct when new charges were brought against him last month.
