FBI gives final say on how Jeffrey Epstein really di.ed and addresses conspiracy theories

The FBI and Department of Justice (DOJ) have released new details about Jeffrey Epstein’s death, aiming to address and dispel persistent conspiracy theories. A memo, first reported by Axios, reaffirmed that there was no evidence Epstein was murdered.

Authorities also released surveillance footage supporting the conclusion that Epstein died by suicide. The video reportedly captures the time between when he was locked in his cell on August 9, 2019, and when he was found unresponsive the next morning.

This update follows Attorney General Pam Bondi’s pledge to release records related to federal investigations into Epstein. She cited a delay due to the FBI possessing tens of thousands of videos allegedly involving underage victims.

The memo also debunks a major theory—that Epstein maintained a “client list” for blackmail purposes. Investigators found no such list and no evidence of blackmail involving powerful individuals.

According to the report, although no incriminating client database was found, investigators did recover a large amount of material detailing thousands of victims. This included identifying information like names, birthplaces, and known associates.

The DOJ Inspector General’s earlier report cited serious failures by prison staff, including missed checks and failure to assign Epstein a new cellmate after suicide watch, as contributing to his death.

The DOJ stated it would not release additional records, arguing that continuing to promote unfounded theories hinders efforts to protect victims and combat child exploitation. They emphasized that further disclosure is neither necessary nor appropriate.
