Exclusive: DOJ, FBI conclude Epstein had no "client list," committed suicide

President Trump's Justice Department and FBI have concluded they have no evidence that convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein blackmailed powerful figures, kept a "client list" or was murdered, according to a memo detailing the findings obtained by Axios.

The administration is releasing a video — in both raw and "enhanced" versions — that it says indicates no one entered the area of the Manhattan prison where Epstein was held the night he died in 2019.

The video supports a medical examiner's finding that Epstein committed suicide, the two-page memo claims.

Why it matters:

The findings represent the first time Trump's administration has officially contradicted conspiracy theories about Epstein's activities and his death — theories that had been pushed by the FBI's top two officials before Trump appointed them to the bureau.

When someone goes to lengths to declare he/she is not suicidal, and then their death is declared a suicide, reasonable people doubt the official pronouncement. This guy paid a lawyer to stay with him in the jail for as long as the lawyer was permitted to stay and was afraid of being suicided. I am still not buying the suicide story, and most people here won’t either.

Wow, it is stunning how the powers that be, can just lie right to your face so brazenly.

Sunday night...Axios? No other source for this?

[ZOOKER]

I gave up on ever seeing the list years ago.

IF it ever existed it was in the hands of people who edit, append, amend, it without thought or guilt or truth. No way I could trust a single entry.

It's amazing how Maxwell is rotting in jail for trafficking underage girls to nobody.

Sounds like Arlen "Magic Bullet" Specter speaking from the grave.

He had no videos.

He held picnics for the CYO on his island.

He was a good guy.

He never should have been arrested.

//Sarcasm….but its where we are headed.

How on earth would this Alex Eisenstadt have such an “exclusive”?

[9YearLurker]

It was a massive blackmail ring. Of course he had “clients”.

Dan and Kash and Pam should be ashamed of themselves.

The new “ officials” know only what they could find, years after the fact. Having some experience working in clandestine operations, .gov is very effective in scrubbing ALL facts, evidence, documents, evidence, etc…down to county records, emails, wiped clean, no digital trace.

I know.

[9YearLurker]

Just like Diddy. He was “human trafficking” to/for himself exclusively, don’t you know?

[dayglored]

I call bullshit on the entire Axios article. Made up out of whole cloth. “Exclusive“ my posterior.

only the little people follow laws or get punished if they don’t.

What a society.
