The lawyer representing the family of Jeffrey Epstein is accusing the federal Bureau of Prisons of allegedly violating the law by releasing confidential medical information about the billionaire pervert who died in their custody, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
The alleged privacy breach revealed the billionaire sex trafficker suffered from a long list of health problems and depression leading up to his reported suicide death inside his prison cell at New York City’s Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in August 2019.
Renowned attorney Stacey Richman, who represents brother Mark Epstein, charges the BOP violated the government’s 1999 Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act – known as HIPAA – by releasing Epstein's medical details to the media.
“There are a lot of curious things going on with this case,” Richman exclusively told RadarOnline.com. “How are they releasing his medical information and psychological condition in total violation of HIPAA, and we are looking into that!”
Richman suspects BOP officials released the medical data to prop up the June 27 U.S. Department of Justice Inspector General’s 128-page investigative report that attributed Epstein’s suicide to the “negligence” and “misconduct” of prison guards.
“The government’s approach is that it was a suicide, and nobody wants to say anything else, but I don’t understand why they did this big release on Epstein’s medical records,” Richman said. “They already sold that (suicide) story, why are they still trying to sell that story.”

Do the dead, other than any info on those behind the RFK and JFK assassinations, have expectations of privacy?
