Kash Patel and Dan Bongino say Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide

FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino insisted that in the Manhattan prison cell, financier Jeffrey Epstein was found to have committed suicide in a Manhattan prison cell in an exclusive interview with Maria Bartiromo of Fox News.

Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in a cell at the Metropolitan Reform Center in New York in August 2019. The chief medical examiner in New York City ruled that his death was suicide. He will be tried on a minor’s sexual trafficking charge. His death immediately sparked a wave of conspiracy theories, with many speculating that he was murdered to protect powerful figures associated with him.

Epstein is a famous assistant to former President Bill Clinton, former MIT professor Noam Chomsky and Prince Andrew. The term “Epstein didn’t kill himself” turned into a viral internet meme after his death. However, Patel insisted that when Bartiromo was interrogated, his death was indeed suicide.

When Patel asked about Epstein's death, Patel said in question: "As a person who had served as a public defender in that prison system at the Metropolitan Detention Center, a prosecutor in quarantine housing, when you see a person, you know suicide, and that's suicide." He added that those who disagree with him "have a right to opinions."

"He committed suicide, I've seen the entire document, he committed suicide," Bongino added.

The Conservatives stood out in February after the Trump administration Department of Justice promoted the release of documents related to the Epstein case, with critics claiming “totally disappointed.” The documents do not include so-called “customer lists” and there is no new revelation about Epstein’s alleged sex trafficking.

“I also have not given or reviewed the Epstein documents released today… A story from the New York Post just revealed that these documents will be just Epstein’s phone book, which is not what we or the Americans ask for, and are totally disappointed. R-FLA. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna posted on X.

After the fight back, Attorney General Pam Boni told Fox News' Sean Hannity in March that the Justice Department received "thousands of pages" of other documents at the Justice Department's office in the southern New York area, after she gave them a deadline to hand it over to them. Bondy claims that the Justice Department has received “a lot of evidence” and a detailed FBI report is about to be released. No report has been released so far.
