(Central News Agency, New York, 6th, comprehensive foreign report) A US federal judge recently unsealed an alleged suicide note left by the deceased sex offender millionaire Jeffrey Epstein after a suicide attempt. The content mentions that authorities investigated him for months but "found nothing," once again drawing public attention to the truth behind Epstein's death.
The New York Times reported that this note was found by Epstein's cellmate at the time, Nicholas Tartaglione.
The note began with, "They investigated for months—and found nothing!!!", but ended with accusations based on old accounts from many years ago, "It's a blessing to be able to choose the time to say goodbye, what do you want from me—to break down and cry!!"
It concluded with "Not fun at all," and underlined these words, "Not worth it at all!!"
Tartaglione said he found this note in July 2019. At that time, Epstein was found unconscious in his cell with a cloth wrapped around his neck. Although the 66-year-old Epstein survived this incident, he died weeks later at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in downtown Manhattan, New York.
The New York Times stated that it is currently unable to independently verify whether this note was indeed written by Epstein. Although the US Department of Justice had previously released millions of pages of documents related to the Epstein case, this suicide note had never been exposed to the public, and a spokesperson for the Department of Justice also said that the Department of Justice had never seen this document.
Tartaglione, who had served as a police officer in Briarcliff Manor, New York, shared a cell with Epstein while awaiting trial for a quadruple murder case. He recently told the New York Times in a phone interview from a California prison that after Epstein's suspected suicide attempt, he was taken out of the cell for treatment, and Tartaglione casually flipped through a graphic novel, only to find this yellow note tucked inside.
The New York City Medical Examiner ultimately ruled Epstein's death a suicide. However, over the years, major security lapses in prison have continuously occurred, raising public doubts about the cause of his death and various conspiracy theories, such as whether he was murdered.
Before unsealing this document, Judge Kenneth M. Karas asked all parties in the case to comment on the New York Times' request to disclose these materials, and the US Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, which prosecuted Tartaglione, did not object. The prosecution wrote in a letter submitted to the judge: "The public seems to be quite concerned about the circumstances surrounding Epstein's death." (Compiled by: Liu Wenyu) 1150507
