The Swamp needs you to imagine—as soon as and for all—that Jeffrey Epstein was nothing greater than a lone-wolf pervert who conveniently “killed himself” in a grimy Manhattan jail cell.

- Epstein definitively died by suicide;
- No “consumer checklist” exists;
- And there’s “no proof” he ever blackmailed the highly effective.
The memo reads:
As a part of our dedication to transparency, the Division of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have carried out an exhaustive evaluate of investigative holdings regarding Jeffrey Epstein. To make sure that the evaluate was thorough, the FBI carried out digital searches of its databases, exhausting drives, and community drives in addition to bodily searches of squad areas, locked cupboards, desks, elosets, and different areas the place responsive materials could have been saved. These searches uncovered a big quantity of fabric, together with greater than 300 gigabytes of knowledge and bodily proof.
The information regarding Epstein embody a big quantity of photographs of Epstein, photographs and movies of victims who’re both minors or look like minors, and over ten thousand downloaded movies and pictures of unlawful baby intercourse abuse materials and different pornography. Groups of brokers, analysts, attorneys, and privateness and civil liberties consultants combed by the digital and documentary proof with the intention of offering as a lot data as doable to the general public whereas concurrently defending victims. A lot of the fabric is topic to court-ordered sealing. Solely a fraction of this materials would have been aired publicly had Epstein gone to trial, because the seal served solely to guard victims and didn’t expose any extra third-parties to allegations of unlawful wrongdoing. By means of this evaluate, we discovered no foundation to revisit the disclosure of these supplies and won’t allow the discharge of kid pornography.
This systematic evaluate revealed no incriminating “consumer checklist.” There was additionally no credible proof discovered that Epstein blackmailed distinguished people as a part of his actions. We didn’t uncover proof that might predicate an investigation in opposition to uncharged third events.
In keeping with prior disclosures, this evaluate confirmed that Epstein harmed over one thousand victims. Every suffered distinctive trauma. Delicate data relating to those victims is intertwined all through the supplies. This consists of particular particulars akin to sufferer names and likenesses, bodily descriptions, locations of delivery, associates, and employment historical past.
One in every of our highest priorities is combatting baby exploitation and bringing justice to victims. Perpetuating unfounded theories about Epstein serves neither of these ends.
To that finish, whereas now we have labored to supply the general public with most data concerning Epstein and ensured examination of any proof within the authorities’s possession, it’s the dedication of the Division of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation that no additional disclosure could be applicable or warranted.
After a radical investigation, FBI investigators concluded that Jeffrey Epstein dedicated suicide in his cell on the Metropolitan Correctional Heart in New York Metropolis on August 10, 2019.
This conclusion is in line with earlier findings, together with the August 19, 2019 post-mortem findings of the New York Metropolis Workplace of the Chief Medical Examiner, the November 2019 place of the U.S. Legal professional’s Workplace for the Southern District of New York in reference to the investigation of federal correctional officers liable for guarding Epstein, and the June 2023 conclusions of DOJ’s Workplace of the Inspector Basic.
The conclusion that Epstein died by suicide is additional supported by video footage from the frequent space of the Particular Housing Unit (SHU) the place Epstein was housed on the time of his loss of life. As DOJ’s Inspector Basic defined in 2023, anybody getting into or trying to enter the tier the place Epstein’s cell was positioned from the SHU frequent space would have been captured by this footage. The FBI’s unbiased evaluate of this footage confirmed that from the time Epstein was locked in his cell at round 10:40 pm on August 9, 2019, till round 6:30 am the following morning, no one entered any of the tiers within the SHU.
Throughout this evaluate, the FBI enhanced the related footage by rising its distinction, balancing the colour, and enhancing its sharpness for higher readability and viewability.

The doc Axios obtained virtually drips with CYA language, assuring readers there’s no “proof” of blackmail.
Bear in mind, that’s the identical FBI whose brokers “misplaced” laptops, shredded notes on the Russia hoax, and nonetheless can’t clarify how the cameras in Epstein’s hall “malfunctioned” on the exact hour he allegedly tied a makeshift noose off the bed sheets the evening after his cellmate was abruptly transferred.
However again in February, Legal professional Basic Pam Bondi informed FOX and Associates host Steve Doocy that the checklist was sitting on her desk and within the means of being reviewed.

Legal professional Basic Pam Bondi: It’s sitting on my desk proper now to evaluate. That’s been a directive by President Trump. I’m reviewing that. I’m reviewing the JFK information, the MLK information. That’s all within the means of being reviewed.
Right here’s Pam Bondi saying the checklist was on her desk again in March.
