Billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, whose list of clients included some of the world’s most elite, really killed himself inside his jail cell, FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino said.
Speaking to Fox News Sunday Morning Futures’ Maria Bartiromo, Patel and Bongino both confirmed the deceased hedge fund manager who owned Pedophile Island died by suicide inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City.
“You said Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide. People don’t believe it,” Bartiromo pressed the pair.
“They have a right to their opinion,” Patel responded.
“But as someone who’s been a public defender, a prosecutor, who’s worked in that prison system and been inside segregated housing——you know a suicide when you see one. And that’s what that was,” he added.
FBI Deputy Director Bongino backed up Patel, saying, “He killed himself.”
“Again, you want me to—I’ve seen the whole file…He killed himself,” Bongino said.
The claims align with what Director Patel told a Senate Appropriations subcommittee earlier this month, including comments to Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.), saying, “Senator, I believe he hung himself in a cell in the Metropolitan detention center.”

“Are you going to release all the information about that?” Kennedy questioned.
Patel answered, “Senator, we are working through that right now with the Department of Justice.”
“When do you think you’ll have it done, Kash?” the Louisiana senator asked.
“I think in the near future, sir,” replied Patel.
“Like, before I die?” Kennedy inquired.
“Senator, we’ve been working on that and we’re doing it in a way that protects victims and also doesn’t put out into the ether information that is irrelevant for production of the public, such as CSAM [child sex abuse material],” Patel answered.
An update by Bongino eight days ago also stated, “We are working with the DOJ on the Epstein case and, as the AG stated, there are voluminous amounts of downloaded child sexual abuse material that we are dealing with.”
— Dan Bongino (@FBIDDBongino) May 10, 2025I’d like to update you on some things that I think are going well, and some things that we can, and will, do better.
The workforce has been working overtime on task force operations to remove dangerous illegal aliens from the country. The work continues. The message is clear.…
“There are also victim’s statements that are entitled to specific protections. We need to do this correctly, but I do understand the public’s desire to get the information out there.”
Is it possible the arch-villain was allowed to off himself behind bars, taking with him the secrets of some of the world’s most powerful people? Or have two of the most admired figures in the MAGA movement been compromised by the Deep State?
The issue is not about Epstein brainiac, it’s about Patel and Bongino !
Too many anomalies like the guard being out of station and the cameras turned off.
I am truly sorry that Kash and Bongino have chosen to smudge their heretofore sterling reputations. Reelease it all and then say that you believe that certain people-name them- will try to kill you.
Up to this point, at least, Patel has muddied his reputation. He can redeem it by publishing ALL the records of ALL the dealings with Epstein UNREDACTED.
I believe he was quickly cremated. That is how they cover up a lot of stuff- like the shooter in Pennsylvania.
It was reported that there was a camera on the cell that was turned off..
Different nose and ear.
And ears.
I trusted Bongino until this.
Ears are different too.
Why would Patel/Bongino say anything? Assuming they’re not idiots, shouldn’t they expect a lot of skepticism? What benefits do they expect?
Bin Laden buried at sea.
I'm not quite ready to throw the guy under the bus just yet. But it's sure starting to back up out of the parking lot at this point.
The usual reason for all the redacting and fragmented releases of information, while it appears suspicious, is that either certain individuals who are sources, technical capabilities, or other cases / subjects are impacted if you provide all the details of the case. Just trowing all the information out there might impact spin off cases etc.
The public gets a filtered version where you're told the facts as they pertain to the case of interest, but without how that information may have been collected etc.
However, if someone like Patel and Bongino are smart, they realize that their integrity, is literally all they have with the public.
Once they squander that, there is no coming back and they greatly lose how effective they are in their leadership position.
In their position, to be effective, you are both internal and external to your organization, and once you destroy the public's trust, you become less effective externally (public, media, legislators).
People like Comey (he had me fooled in the beginning) know this and pretend to have integrity, but eventually they reveal themselves. You can't fake this. You can't long term trick the people by merely talking the talk and in secret playing games. You have to actually be as objective, neutral, transparent and honest as possible.
Good post—but there is one piece you did not mention.
Competence.
If you are fooled by what liars tell you then it will undermine you very badly.
That’s a fact!!!
Friends I know in the federal bureaucracy (current and retired) used to describe it like navigating a raging river.
The career old timers were expert navigators—knew who could be trusted and who could not, who were competent and who were not—and all the little obstacles hidden below the waterline.
Political appointees usually enter office unfamiliar with the river—and they are at the mercy of career employees to help them navigate.
Sometimes all a career employee has to do to undermine the new boss is just not tell them everything—lying is not even necessary.
the day before Epstein had received bad news for his defense and when all hope is gone things happen, especially with his type
they logs on equipment are extensive and the line staff have no control over area surveillance. the monitors are in the control center and 24 hour staffing.
Well something was dumped overboard for the camera. I still think BL lost it in Tora Bora. The Chinese thought so then as did the Indians.
