Mark Epstein, the sibling of the infamous pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, has emerged more than four years after his reported suicide, alleging that state and federal authorities engaged in a "cover-up" surrounding the circumstances leading to Epstein's death in custody.
Mark Epstein, a 69-year-old New York property developer, revealed to the Post that he has persistently sought the truth about his brother's death since August 10, 2019, when Jeffrey Epstein was discovered dead with a bed sheet tied around his neck. Just months before his death, Jeffrey Epstein had been arrested on numerous charges related to his exploitation of young girls over several decades.
Mark Epstein contends that officials he has engaged with have been uncooperative in providing information regarding whether a thorough investigation was conducted following his brother's death.
“I only want to look at facts, but when we consider the facts available, we get more questions,” he told the Post. “There appears to have been no investigation once it was ruled a suicide; they saw no reason to dig deeper.
“It seems like a cover-up. Why can’t I find his pre-hospital care report, and why can’t I get the 911 call?”
Journalists like Tucker Carlson have previously reported that the 911 calls from the jail that day were erroneously deleted, part of a pattern of missteps that then-U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr called a “perfect storm” around the management of Jeffrey Epstein while in custody.
Since Jeffrey’s death, Mark Epstein has obtained limited information on a number of fronts, starting with a questionable autopsy that leaves open the possibility that a conclusion other than suicide could have been reached. Just days after Jeffrey’s death, Mark tasked Dr. Michael Baden with independently overseeing his brother’s autopsy alongside a state medical examiner. Both agreed to list the cause of death as “pending” until further information was gathered; however, that conclusion was overruled by New York Chief Medical Examiner Barbara Samson, who changed the cause to suicide citing “additional evidence” which was never released.
During the autopsy, Dr. Baden cited two breaks on each side of his thyroid cartilage near his Adam’s apple, and one above it on the left side of his hyoid bone, both injuries that are “extremely unusual in suicidal hangings” and “could occur much more commonly in homicidal strangulation.
“I’ve not seen in 50 years where that occurred in a suicidal hanging case,” Dr. Baden added in his report.
Additionally, a noose of bed cloth taken by medical examiners was not the one found around Jeffrey Epstein’s neck. At his side was a sleep apnea machine with a plastic electrical cord, which his brother Mark said could have been more effective in a suicide attempt if one really occurred.
Mark also reported that emergency medical technicians (EMTs) at the scene were not interviewed, which is typically standard protocol in a death of that nature. In addition, a pre-hospital report on Jeffrey Epstein’s body “can’t be found,” according to hospital staff, further adding to the mystery.
Efrain “Stone” Reyes, a cellmate of Epstein, told the Daily News later that he seemed “depressed” like he “didn’t want to live anymore.” Another inmate said Epstein “was saying he’s going to kill himself because the government is trying to kill him anyway.”
Video evidence from the scene was also “limited” according to the Justice Department.
“Recorded video evidence for Aug. 9 and 10 for the SHU area where Epstein was housed was only available from one prison security camera due to a malfunction of MCC New York’s Digital Video Recorder system,” wrote AG Barr’s team, also noting that “between approximately 10:40 p.m. on August 9 and about 6:30 a.m. on August 10, no one was seen entering Epstein’s cell tier from the SHU common area.”
Despite two night guards being stationed less than 15 feet from Epstein’s cell, it was discovered that both fell asleep on duty and later falsified reports that they made their rounds to check on the well-being of inmates. Both were federally indicated but later saw their charges dropped for cooperating with the investigation.
Mark Epstein said he has no fame or fortune to gain by digging for the truth.
“They had a hearing which was coming up a few days after his death to appeal the bail restrictions … why would Jeffrey kill himself a few days before that hearing? Because if he got bail, he’d be out of jail, awaiting trial in his house with an ankle monitor,” he told investigative journalist Declan Hill on his “Crimewaves” podcast.
“Why kill yourself then? If bail was denied again, then I could understand it.”
“Believe me, it would have been easier if [the pathologists] had come out and said, ‘It looks like a suicide,’ then I could put this whole issue behind me,” he added.
